[Muhammad Waleed]

Guys am receiving some negative news about this game from some Inside resources there is some sort of fixing going in this game and people are going to make lots of money am not saying its Pak but still

Now a days Every Tom,Dick and harry are getting news from their sources.

 

[pakbl10]

If the pitch is going to suit fast bowling then the only change should be to drop Rehman for either Wahab or Junaid.
Spinners wise we're fine.

 

[Bullet Drive]

6 mins till SkySports coverage starts.

 

[adnan yasin]

Fast bowling is weak and we should strengthen the spin?

Shoaib akhtar is half fit... good with new ball .. not so good with old..

we have umar gul.. who dont like to bowl with new ball

rest we left with razzak.. is he good with new ball ??? i dont think so


so we dont have a new ball bowler.... so if you have weak fast bowling atleast make your spin more strong... as per pitch report...ball will grip over here

 

[abcanada]

toss happening in few minutes

shoaib is no good with old ball comon man hes not that bad yh nowadays he can't because he gets tired after first 5 overs

 

[Maher96]

3 minutes till toss

 

[rakib08]

few mins. to go

 

[abcanada]

whoeve wins the toss, will bat first.

 

[jattafridi]

please nobody gets injured in this match

 

[Impala_KaifTamasha]

2 mins till sky sports coverage

 

[Bullet Drive]

2 mins to go, also its a good idea they kept a spinner ahead of Wahab because this is a flat hard deck which spin will be suited although I believe Ajmal should have been picked.

 

[adnan yasin]

Maybe we should drop Hafeez and play Ajmal instead of him?

i would have drop hafeez for sure.. its really hard to drop him ..but apart from one good innings in NZ he failed... but still he is good.. I will drop him for sure... AS shehzad much more in form...and then younis khan and misbah to stabilize the innings...

hafeez should be drop then go with good 3 spinners

UMAR GUL should bowl atleast 4 overs with new ball ..

 

[Maher96]

[SAF]

While we wait for the toss, you can have a look at Sid Ravindran's preview.
Welcome to what should be the first big game of the World Cup, and by big, I mean really big. South Africa against West Indies promised a lot, but didn't deliver at all, Australia against New Zealand didn't resemble a contest, England and Netherlands surprised us, but nothing better than two former champions clashing in what has built up into an under-stated, but familiar, rivalry. There is nothing that Pakistan and Sri Lanka two don't know about each other. The only thing that is an unknown is the pitch, at the re-done Premadasa Stadium.

 

[Shayan_Sohail]

Same team as last match

 

[Shahrukh Khan]

No Ajmal. Afridi Pagal ho gaya hai

 

[hur rizvi]

[Afridi_Fan]

[adnan yasin]

Malinga not playing

[H]

[NJamal]

[Afridi_Fan]

[Impala_KaifTamasha]

Love Lala's smile at the end of that video

 

[sam]

Afridi wants 270-280

Sanga says he will be happy with 270-280

 

[jattafridi]

Malinga not playing

but murli is

 

[Munna]

2 pm Toss: Sanga spins the coin, and Shahid Afridi calls right. Pakistan will bat first. "Best conditions to bat first. Morale is quite high. Very important game for us. We know it is a good batting wicket. Same team that played against Kenya. With our bowling strength, I will be satisfied at 270."

:d

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

pakistan wins the toss & elect to bat

 

[rash]

wah ji wah....toss jit liya....hun match jitoo jawanoon

 

[NJamal]

Mendis is not playing and Herath is playing in his place

 

[Shayan_Sohail]

Mendis not playing rangana herath takes his place also no malinga

 

[md_tariq]

winning the toss is very important, batting is very difficult under lights here. Advantage Pakistan. Hope they dont screw up the oppurtunity.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

So Herath in for Mendis. Watch out for him. We usually make such bowlers heros.

 

[kaalakawaa]

smart decision to not play Malinga. Saving him for the crunch games. We should have also avoided playing Shoaib today

Grunts

 

[Blitz]

Same team!

 

[Afrid1]

Afridi wins the toss and bats first

 

[H]

[Sledger]

yeah i agree...

 

[Afridi_Fan]

OMG OMG OMG

The per-match nerves are back on.

 

[Impala_KaifTamasha]

Shouldnt have kept the same team, you need 3 specialist seamers.

Should've dropped Shahzad for Wahab.

But still i'll back every player to the hilt.

 

[Sledger]

No Malinga or Mendis.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first

 

[pak4life]

hope razzaq has had his spinach and bowls abit higher then 80mph!

 

[akamaka]

smart decision to not play Malinga. Saving him for the crunch games. We should have also avoided playing Shoaib today

Grunts

nope we need to win this game, and get our morale up

 

[Bullet Drive]

Come on Hafeez & Shehzad.

 

[JilaWatan]

yes i knew it would be the same team.

 

[Impala_KaifTamasha]

My stomach feels weird; i'm nervous

 

[classic]

Salaam Everyone !! ...Sanga thinks 280 is good to chase ...Lets see. Oh this is going to be a Crackerrr!!

 

[Blitz]

Muting time again

 

[Sledger]

Don't have to face the Kula under lights.

 

[kaalakawaa]

One thing i want to see is aggressive and brave Shahzad today. No lame blocking please

 

[SAF]

The one and only Shoaib Akhtar on air: "Never had a doubt for one second about myself. I don't care what people feel. I felt I would make a comeback, and I did. I am a very patriotic man. Nothing else matters to me."

 

[jattafridi]

imran saying pakistan should play ajmal now they will struggle not good planning from afridi

 

[Bullet Drive]

Azhar Mahmood speaking well today.

 

[hur rizvi]

Malinga not playing

come on pakistan.. destroy the opening bowling

Kulasekra is more of a threat compared to malinga
