Gul has been brilliant but its still a decent start for WI, we need wickets.
 
imagine Gul and Asif bowling on tandem. It'll happen one day fellas. we can only hope. For now Rao will do fine!
 
when the change bowlers come now its crucial they bowl well...or we could see big runs in the powerplays...sarwin looking more relaxed...
 
Another good over from gul,hope inzi gives him one more over to see if he can pick up another wicket.
 
Code:
 *RR Sarwan (rhb) 24 26 5 0 92.30  5 (5b) 14 (13b)   116 3748 44.61

The Pakistan team management are showing desperation in trying to force Rana into form. So happy that Umar Gul has come back and its business as usual.

Gul's showing glimps of Mcgrah

good.. now we have 2 mcgraths( gul and asif). aus also has 2 mcgraths( one of who will be retiring soon) and SA has one Mcgrath(pollock).
Good signs for pakistani cricket.

dont forget our original Mcgrath, even before Gul and Asif came into ODI cricket, none other than Mr. Rao Iftikhar Anjum himself.

He was supposed to be our "Secret Weapon" in the Jeet lo dil series!
 
i think this is a 250 pitch..

chasing 250 wont be easy.........
maiden over by Rao...

more than fine. this guy should be a permanant fixture in our ODI lineup. This obsession with pace and swing over line and length must stop.
 
WI looking ominous here
We really need a wicket here, our bowling at the death is really very poor.

just because of his record against Gayle. Azhar would have been much better but i still hope he can come good.

can't believe they kept azhar out, we need as much fire power as we can get without akhtar and asif there, and azhar looked like a wicket taker in SA.
 
Even Raao is better than Rana Crappy!

I am amazed to see Rao bowling at such a better line...infact maiden by Rao
 
I think the Windies batsmen are just sizing up Rao before trying to launch into him :)
 
Rao shows Rana how to bowl ball after ball in right area!

Rao may not have taken a lot of wickets, but he bowls an immaculate line and length.

this opening 25mins shows why pak make it so hard for themselves to win a tournament. dropped catches, extras and poor fielding.


Couldnt have said it better.
 
Amir Sohail is annoying the hell out of me! Stop freaking whispering man! someone write him an email please.
 
Amir Sohail says Gul has not been bending his back!!! Whats he on???

turn up your tv volume, its not so bad really.
 
west indians are looking in good position,, both batsman are set and they have a left, right arm partnership going..
 
Now comes the tricky part. We will have Rao bowling from one end, and from the other we will need to introduce a spinner. There is still plenty of power play to come. I suppose Hafeez might bowl next until the end of power play. Do you think we should have 20 overs on the trot of power play or shoudl we try a different strategy?
 
Anyone noticed Gul making faces after deliveries?
I hope he is not still carrying any niggles.
 
I'm not a Rao fan - but hes looking his usual 'reliable' self. Thats what is needed right now
 
around-the-wicket said:
why do you say that?

because Inzi doesn't know how to use an attacking leg spinner in ODI cricket. he said as much on the Geo program with Imran ( not in so many words).
 
pak is bowling tight overs now and wI will need to take shots if they want to propell the run rate ...i feel awicket coming very soon guys..inshallah
 
Nice stop on the boundary by DK - that would have been 4 last year!
 
la kar lo baat. Amir Sohail already on Inzi's case for bowling 7 in a row by Gul. Its just 7 overs man. chill.
 
YOu have to hand it to DK - he forced his way into the WC and gets a start - I think he will repay the selectors.
