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

[Markhor]

Really impressed by Ali. Now we have a good dilemma with Ahmed Shehzad, Nasir Jamshed and Azhar Ali competing for the same spot

Delighted with Azhar Ali. I hate it when people say he is a limited player, he is rotating strike nicely and is definitely one for the future. He should open in ODIs from now on.

 

[Ahson8]

We should have played Shafiq over Rahat

 

[AccidentallyOnPurpose]

Really impressed by Ali. Now we have a good dilemma with Ahmed Shehzad, Nasir Jamshed and Azhar Ali competing for the same spot

If we could get rid of Hafeez and Yk, problem would be solved...

 

[Fireworks11]

Wonderful batting by Ali.

100 tonight please.

 

[Bullet Drive]

68* for Azhar.

 

[NeVerMind]

Highest carrer average without a 100
Misbah on Top
Fawad also their in list

Surprised to see Graham Thorpe on the list too

 

[Maximas]

RR is 6.20, Misbah just need to rotate bat to Azhar.

 

[pakistanalltheway]

100 up
101-2

 

[Asif321]

chalo shabash 180 more needed ....

 

[qamar84]

100 up

 

[Hamxa89]

How'd I'd love Azhar to score a century here. He's playing so good! Just keep taking singles and we'll be home

 

[Bullet Drive]

Misbah doing well here.

 

[Bullet Drive]

6.35 RR to win.. Not as easy as you think.

 

[Hamxa89]

We should have played Shafiq over Younis

Fixed

 

[AFG_Brit]

azhar is batting well mashala

 

[Bullet Drive]

Herath is back.

 

[attock]

Both batsman playing well MashALLAH

 

[Hamxa89]

Keep milking Herath for ones and twos.. No need to go for the boundaries..

 

[Hamxa89]

Good running by Azhar

 

[Hamxa89]

Azhar looks very composed out there. He's a sharp thinker too

 

[Hamxa89]

Love the scope shot by Azhar

 

[bforme]

Go Azhar,,,,,,,you beauty!!!!!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good stuff by Azhar.

 

[MVP26]

Surpurised to see azhar bat like this

 

[chui_kadoo]

Probably the last we will see of Imran Farhat. Thank God for that

 

[MVP26]

Just have to deal in 1s and 2s for now.

 

[attock]

looks not out..........

 

[PB]

Waqar is such a drama queen

 

[Hamxa89]

DAMN YOU AZHAR! Ffs! Run out is the last thing we need!

 

[taqi]

Wwaqar wanted Azhar out

 

[MVP26]

174 required from 27 overs.

 

[qamar84]

what the hell waqar is saying

 

[Shayan]

Probably the last we will see of Imran Farhat. Thank God for that

I wouldn't count on it

 

[Bullet Drive]

No need for that Azhar.

 

[PB]

Azhar looks tired and bored.

 

[Asif321]

this chase will b writted in history books ... it means very much for pakistan if they do it

 

[Maximas]

I wonder if Misbah still play 15 more overs tonight, can his parter(s) fill up the gaps of SR req?!!

 

[hhhhdmt]

hopefully azhar continues to devolop as a opening batsmen

 

[Bullet Drive]

We need a few boundaries now as the rate is getting high.

 

[HaMmy FinE LeG StriKeR]

at this stage azhar shouldnt be stupid and be patient

 

[Hamxa89]

Loving Misbah being pro-active out there. Moving around and knocking it nice for singles. How can't he just bat like this every single time?

 

[chui_kadoo]

I wouldn't count on it

After Azhar's innings today I cant see how Farhat can get back in. Hafeez will never be dropped.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Poor from Misbah. Turned down an easy single.

 

[Maher96]

Boundary drought has arrived.

 

[Hamxa89]

We need a few boundaries now as the rate is getting high.

As long as its under 7.5, all is well yaar

 

[Maher96]

Need a 6 off herath. Chal misbah.

 

[Shayan]

After Azhar's innings today I cant see how Farhat can get back in. Hafeez will never be dropped.

Personally I hope you're right, and with Nasir Jamshed coming back there shouldn't be space for Farhat, but he always seems to find a way....

 

[Bullet Drive]

Much better from captain.

 

[Hamxa89]

We don't want too many dot balls guys

 

[pakistanalltheway]

bring that 166 down to 100
then think to attack

 

[Bullet Drive]

Misbah building pressure.

 

[Hamxa89]

Misbah special just around the corner I feel

 

[MVP26]

azhar is getting bogged down.

 

[LastLaugh_PK]

Mr. Tuk tuk at his best

 

[Maher96]

Still 15 runs behind lanka.

 

[Hamxa89]

Poor over this for Pakistan.. only 1 from it

 

[Pak_Jazba]

With Afridi Umar Sarfaraz Tanvir to come. 120 needed of last 15. Gettable?

 

[Maher96]

Azhar needs a boundary to ease the pressure now.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good over. 2 off it. Come on Misbah.

 

[Bullet Drive]

We need one good over now. An 8 or 9 from it.

 

[taqi]

Need one boundary in next two overs

 

[Bullet Drive]

How often does Misbah get 2's? Very poor runner.

 

[attock]

Yusuf and Inzy were so good in these middle overs. They were very good at rotating strike and then getting the odd boundary........

 

[Bullet Drive]

5 off the over. Decent over but we need an over with 8 or 9 off it now. Come on Misbah.

 

[attock]

Good over.........

 

[Bullet Drive]

7 an over needed now. Is Misbah leaving it too late? A boundary is needed

 

[cricketpassion]

159 required from 138 balls

 

[Bullet Drive]

79*

 

[bluffmasterv2]

was Russell Arnold a good closer ?

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good from Misbah. 1 run.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Nicely done by Azhar. Into the 80s

 

[LegCutter]

Come on Misbah, dont make this a repeat of the England T20 where you left everything for the last over

 

[Bullet Drive]

Come on Ali..

 

[MVP26]

Azhar needs to get a big one here.

 

[pakistanalltheway]

misbah is a crap runner

 

[Pak_Jazba]

These two should stay for the next 7-8 overs atleast. 130-120 of last 15 is gettable with afridi umar sarfaraz to come.

 

[attock]

5 runs frm the over........

 

[Bullet Drive]

Amazing fielding.

 

[Hamxa89]

RR of 7

 

[Maximas]
