The 4th ODI at Ahmedabad: score and discussion, 1st Innings [11/04/05]

[MIG]

imy- they say that every game. It never does.

The pitch remains exactly the same it is only tiredness/concentration because of the heat that the batsman make mistakes.

Commentators - yes
Experts - no!

 

[catwoman]

What's happened to Rana today?

 

[Officer Barbrady]

The spinners should do better. Rubbish wickets though why do we plan to play in India every other year?

 

[sajjad]

41 after 5 from rana
23 after 5 from sami

we need a bowling change...shud have been done last over

 

[Gasherbrum]

[MIG]

I doubt my avatar would have scared him since he's used to seeing Sami.

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Excellent stuff by YK but what rubbish by Sehwag? )


Yes it's a 48 over game

 

[Hash]

YEEAAAAAAAAAAAH YEEEEEEEEEEEES YEEEEEEEEEEES YEEEEEEEEEEES

\A/ \A/ \A/ \A/ \A/ \A/ \A/ \A/ \A/ \A/ \A/

Big wicket there. We needed that badly. Come on boys.

 

[sajjad]

sachin continues to guide it to 3rd man

 

[Gasherbrum]

cmon inzi get a slip in there man! sami is bowling well right now, give him some support

 

[Hydro]

MYK A DEMON IN THE FIELD AT THE MO

 

[MIG]

all younis khan doubters better be eating their words yet again this series. this is just brilliant. sehwag gone, younis khan takes his wicket.

Yes - I admit it - I will be having Alphabet soup today....

 

[Hydro]

rana having trouble

 

[sajjad]

anoter no ball by rana..
he needs to be changed..what r they waiting for

 

[161]

inzi should have made a change !!!

 

[Hash]

my bold prediction:

Rana will come back in this game and get two vital wickets later on

 

[sajjad]

dhoni survives an inside edge going close to the stumps...
batsmen not really as fluid as the score may suggest. a lot of leg side bowling has given away the runs

 

[161]

my bold prediction:

Rana will come back in this game and get two vital wickets later on

rana always makes a comeback - but i fear the damage has already been done today

 

[sajjad]

rr is almost 7 an over.

 

[Hydro]

four by dhoni

 

[sajjad]

sami scored a 51 off just 36 balls.

 

[sajjad]

run out chance....he is safe...cud have been out had the fielder been quicker

 

[razzler]

sami scored a 51 off just 36 balls.

?

 

[Hash]

sajjad- beg your pardon?

 

[Hydro]

anything less than 250 will be good conitnaing by pka

 

[sajjad]

sorry rana did
off his own balling

50 runs to his name

 

[Hash]

if we can limit them to less than 300 then I believe we will win this match.

 

[Khalil]

Rana banana going at 8.5

Why is Aloo not making a bowling change?

India are set for a score of 350

 

[161]

inzi falling asleep as usual with the bowling changes

 

[Hydro]

dhoni getting a boundary or 2 every over

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Hash it doesn't seem 300 will be as easy a chase as in the other games

88/1 after 13
Dhoni looking good

I think Afridi can be crucial..he has to bowl well.

 

[Hydro]

kaineria in

 

[sajjad]

THE AFRIDI into the attack

Modi THE MURDERER being shown on screen

 

[Hydro]

lol

i menat afridi why b4 165 overs

 

[sajjad]

bowling AROUND the wkt

 

[Hydro]

afridid doin a tendulkar being sly

 

[sajjad]

Afridi smacked for 6 by sachin

 

[Hydro]

and get whacked for a 6

 

[Hash]

afridi will get his revenge

sachin will be hit for many a six when he bowls

 

[sajjad]

afridi 2wides and a noball plus a six
only 4 balls bowled

 

[Hydro]

pak betta be careful hear

 

[161]

whats new - afridi has been going for 10 an over the entire series almost - yet BW and Inzi continue to play him ....

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Tendu is a much bigger legspinner of the ball thus easier for him to use that outside leg line. Afridi will have to keep it just outside leg.

 

[MIG]

No way to get SRT round his legs - best to go back to his usual. Always trust your strengths...

 

[sajjad]

pakistan need to do something here.

indians scoring @ 7 an over
and this wkt is more like a 4-5 run an over

 

[Hydro]

jakka from the other side

 

[Hydro]

beautiful delivery 1st up by razzaq

 

[sajjad]

100 up in the 15th over

pakistan on thier heels and india rolling them over at the moment

 

[Hash]

good first over by razzaq

2 off it

 

[Officer Barbrady]

No way to get SRT round his legs - best to go back to his usual. Always trust your strengths...

for once I agree with the dictactor

 

[Hash]

come on afridi we need a wicket now

 

[MIG]

Pak already bowled 2 extra overs so its 50 overs for India !

 

[sajjad]

these grls in ahmedabad a lot prettier than in the rest of india

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Pak already bowled 2 extra overs so its 50 overs for India !

We are fair people.

 

[Hydro]

16.1 Razzaq to Tendulkar, no run, outside off, beats the outside edge again, the classic leg cutter from Razzaq
jakka bowling decnet

 

[ali kc]

Razzaq bowling well .. !!

Come on Pakistan ...we need a wicket

 

[Hash]

another good over by Razzaq

2 overs for 4 runs he has gone for and beaten the edge a couple of times by the sound of things

 

[Hydro]

these grls in ahmedabad a lot prettier than in the rest of india

can the lob bricks though, that should be our question

 

[161]

too bad inzi didn't make the change sooner X) X)

 

[sajjad]

the RR almost down to 6 now...hehe

 

[Hydro]

afrdidi consedded 11 in 1st 5 in hsi 2nd 4 in hsi 3rd inshalklah hell be constant ownward trend

 

[MIG]

Afridi back to his senses now - over the wicket per normal.

 

[161]

afrdidi consedded 11 in 1st 5 in hsi 2nd 4 in hsi 3rd inshalklah hell be constant ownward trend

how much longer until he gets a wicket ?

 

[Hydro]

jakka doin well hes beating them and also containing them

 

[salmanbuttfan]

there hasnt been a boundry hit for 25 deliveries

 

[Hash]

another good over by Razzaq

3 overs for 7 runs and again beat the edge.

run rate down to 6. You just feel that something is going to give soon......either a big over or a wicket.

 

[salmanbuttfan]

36 deliveries, 6 overs since a boundry has been scored

 

[Hash]

run rate has fallen below 6 now. 5.85 and much of that is thanks to Razzaq. Well done Rizzy!

 

[sajjad]

rr just below 6 now
still very high for the wkt...
it shud be 4 4.5

 

[sajjad]

50 FOR SACHIN

okay time for him to get out now

 

[sajjad]

Dhoni charging Razzaq here

 

[Hash]

sajjad- and failing miserably

5 off that Razzaq over.

razzaq got 4 overs for 12 runs

 

[sajjad]

sachin running on the pitch...run not recorded cause he has been warned earlier.
