Srilanka vs Pakistan | 2nd ODI | Pallekele | 9/6/2012 | Pakistan Innings

[bforme]

So the target is 281.Very tough task.Hope the batsmen don't waste too many deliveries & play tuk tuk.It would be a test for our batsmen who really need to fire.

 

[MRSN]

Am I the only one scared of Kulasekara guy ? lol

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

It's going to be tough but take the singles, boundaries on loose balls and limit the blockage. InshALLAH we will win

 

[bforme]

^ I have always seen him perform against Pakistan.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Bat Umar at 4 please

 

[Bullet Drive]

How long to go>?

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

How long to go>?

20 mins.

 

[Sunny786]

Inshallah Misbah will hit the winning runs

 

[Sherlock]

Bat Umar at 4 please

You wanted Pakistan to chase 300 the last game, what happened, not confident?

 

[talha3]

Not confident at all. Might have been more optimistic with Jamshed and Hammad/Razzaq in.

 

[Sherlock]

No team has chased more than 240 vs SL in SL.

Stat via cricinfo.

Shocking stat!

 

[Fireworks11]

Umar Akmal should come in at 4.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

hw long befr da match strts.

 

[zayn]

is it just me or is Saeed Ajmal starting to lose his control a bit? He's bowled so many boundary balls this series. He is 34 years old now so it's not really that surprising.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Not confident if your best batsmen is batting so low. He'll probably come in when the game is almost already lost. He cannot do anything about it then and then he'll get bashed.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

hafeez need to score big if we r to gt near this total.

 

[Square Drive]

YK really needs to step up here.

 

[World Champion]

IF Farhat was playing then I would back Pakistan to chase this, would ease the pressure on Hafeez while Azhar is just going to be defensive and put pressure on Hafeez.
WE NEED FARHAT!!!!

 

[Ahson8]

Gonna be tough, need a good opening partnership

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Its not ajmals fault if misbah is defnsive captaan, remembr how steve waugh used shane warne against SA in semi final, he broght him on at 11th ovr and he rattled gibbs, cronje and kirsten, if i was da skip i would use ajmal as a attacking option. give him to evn opn da bowling have we forgoten 2011 WC.

Welcome on PP, Mr. Mohammad Ilyas.

 

[hamzie]

Remember no team has ever successfully chased more than 246 against Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka, and Pakistan batting is not exceptionally strong
((((((((((((((

 

[Bullet Drive]

Misbah uses Ajmal as a defensive option when Ajmal is an attacking bowler. Ajmal must be bowled in the middle overs too and must go over the wicket. He bowls on the pads way to much and this is because he bowls during the PP all the time.

Hogaya shuru bhai.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Need Hafeez to be aggresive!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Maiden, Hafeez come oN!

 

[Square Drive]

Maiden over played out.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Farhat is a useless cricketrr, ******** tatooo.

 

[style_guru]

Any guesses about what'll be the color of UA'a lipstick today??

 

[taqi]

maiden over to start wih

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

Maiden first up.

 

[Square Drive]

I back Achar to score big here.

 

[Maher96]

Maiden first over. See. This soo many times. They wont be able to score and then crumble under pressure. Wickets will start falling and game will be over within 30 odd overs.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

chalo maiden khel diya, whrre is imran nzir wen u need him, evn somtim quick 50 can be a grt boost.

Looks like Imran Farhat is in the house. Welcome to Pakpassion

 

[FusedBulb]

Ball is coming onto the bat quite nicely.
I think the total is chase-able if we hold the nerve.

 

[iZeeshan]

lol, batsmen not even trying

 

[carbon11]

what a chaval batsmen this hafeez is

Oh makes sense

 

[Pakistaniboy]

I hope they send Umar at 3!

They can't send Younis with these two guys playing the way they are now

 

[Asif321]

batsmen gone into shell ...

 

[PakFan2010]

Well done Azhar Ali !

Taking care of Malinga's overs.

 

[Bullet Drive]

This is how we chase. 2 maidens!

 

[talha3]

Erm ok. Let's make this harder for ourselves by chasing the target off 48 overs.

 

[Pakistaniboy]

Read post #23, I agree with it, it's Ilyas bhai who recently joined PP.

More like Dada or Senior Senior Uncle

 

[Saudi]

Back to back maidens...

 

[lahoriyah1234]

i bet misbah sir said dw guys just play 50 overs lets get a practice.

 

[Saurav]

typical test match start

 

[Square Drive]

Another maiden.

BTW, what on earth was the cameraman doing earlier?

 

[style_guru]

The openers may take another few overs to settle down. But the condition here is that, they cannot get out cheaply after consuming precious opening overs.

 

[Square Drive]

More like Dada or Senior Senior Uncle

Mere to pardada huai naa.

 

[Maher96]

Dont understand how Hafeez is still opening the innings. Going fir 3rd maiden in a row lmao

 

[x-man]

"Only 10 times, Pakistan have successfully chased
target of 280+ in ODI Cricket. Last time in October
2010 at Abu Dhabi, when Abdul Razzaq annihilated
South Africa." cricinfo
Isn't it shameful?



X-man from Kandy, Sri Lanka.

 

[Saudi]

Another maiden.

BTW, what on earth was the cameraman doing earlier?

Bringing some excitement into the game...

 

[Bullet Drive]

Nice shot.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

cant blame azhar this is his first few games, but professor is experimnting in da lab smewhere.

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

4 finally.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Excellent pitch. Hit through the line and outfield is quick

 

[Sherlock]

Great start this from the openers

 

[Spidy201]

Solid start

 

[qamar84]

 

[carbon11]

hafeez lmao

 

[AFG_Brit]

[Asif321]

[imshally81]

[Saudi]

Hafeez with the yousuf: stare.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez still missing out on leg stump deliverires

 

[attock]

We are off to the perfect start.............

 

[style_guru]

First runs on the board. Mithai baanto Bhaai

 

[Square Drive]

:4 by Hafeez, followed by a mix-up and a close LBW shout.

 

[PakFan2010]

))

Sri Lanka are 1/7 on to win; If I had money I would put 70,000 on them winning; Pak can't chase anything over 150.
