WI v Pak [Group D/Game 1] WI Inns [241-9/50 overs]

[Noman]

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.

well. look we have many injuries.We cant afford to have more injuries.

 

[Kamran]

Another good over from rao

 

[Salman]

48/1

Well stopped by Nazir

 

[iafzal]

Last few over Pak fielding has looked sharp.

 

[Kashif]

So who dropped a catch? I am happy to see Kaneria playing, its an attacking move.

 

[pak_all_the_way]

rana is bak from other end

 

[Noman]

Rana back.. lol

 

[Oxy]

Rana Naved is back on

 

[Kamran]

Umm rana is back not so sure about this but lets hope it works out.

 

[Salman]

Rana is back into the attack from the other end....


We've got no other choice....

 

[Usman]

So who dropped a catch? I am happy to see Kaneria playing, its an attacking move.

Younis Khan of all people!

 

[hasbeen]

rana is back, nooooooo

 

[Noman]

good first bowl by rana.

 

[Oxy]

So who dropped a catch? I am happy to see Kaneria playing, its an attacking move.

Younis Khan - a simple one. Straight to him. Gul would have been on a hatrick

 

[pak_all_the_way]

on his legs 4444444

 

[Noman]

why does rana need to try so hard.

 

[hasbeen]

as i speak he ges hit for a four.

 

[Usman]

4 runs!

 

[pak_all_the_way]

yaar rana tum ko kiya hogaya

 

[ThaSiccSense]

Rana gives away another 4.

 

[Salman]

same result, lovly shot for 4..... Chandarpaul...

 

[Noman]

just bowl line and legth.

 

[MCMLXXXII]

As I thought, we can't bring a spinner during power play, Rana comes back in.

 

[Sparhawk]

shiv can bat, although it doesnt take alot of skill to get four off rana

 

[Noman]

yaar rana tum ko kiya hogaya

Only god can anwar why rana was selected today..

 

[Raza Sohail]

Rana seems to be there just to serve up loose deliveries. He ambles in, puts it there for you, and if you feel like getting a boundary you may do so at will.

I've defended Bob and Inzi a lot in the past, but I cannot defend this!

 

[mooz]

This is a really ominous sign for pakistan
If rana doesn't sort himself out, who is going to take the new ball with Gul?

 

[Sparhawk]

atleast rana's keeping thhe length too full rather than too short, its an improvement but still not good enough for this level.

 

[Kashif]

Big blunder by the team management playing Rana. Other teams know he is not in form and will put him under pressure.

Younis of all people

 

[Noman]

This is a really ominous sign for pakistan
If rana doesn't sort himself out, who is going to take the new ball with Gul?

Rao?? what is wrong with Rao+++

 

[tauseefm]

well, we are missing another pace bowler right now.. inzi doesn't wana use dani or any other spin bowler in the power play

 

[MCMLXXXII]

Will Inzi take the third power play after this over? Right now we are really missing Razzaq. He was the one who would bowl at this time. Seems like we will need 4 seamers in our lineup.

 

[Noman]

Big blunder by the team management playing Rana. Other teams know he is not in form and will put him under pressure.

Younis of all people

Rana bowl 2 four bowl every over..

 

[Salman]

End of the over 54/1....

Power play 2 ends.

 

[immubhai]

Rana Fassaaadi phir maar khanai aagiaa, I dont know why Inzi made Gul bowled a spell of 7 overs...I saw him limping! I hope Gul is not hurt

 

[luvthegame]

another blunder by Playing Rana. When will our managers learn.

 

[Noman]

we need to introduce spinners.

 

[Raza Sohail]

Will Inzi take the third power play after this over? Right now we are really missing Razzaq. He was the one who would bowl at this time. Seems like we will need 4 seamers in our lineup.

Inzi always takes the powerplays one after the other. aint gonna change.

 

[Kamran]

Pakistan take the third powerplay

 

[Noman]

Sarwan looking very dangerous..

 

[mooz]

Rao?? what is wrong with Rao+++

Nothings wrong with Rao. Bus thori talent ki kami he, as my friend would say.

 

[pak_all_the_way]

did anyone watch the programme on GEO with inzi and Imran.

Inzi was very aggresive while sayin no1 will be in the team if they not playing well and not in form............ whats the deal with rana den............is he out of form (it means the same thing inzy)

 

[Salman]

3rd powerplay selected!

Smashed by Sawan... Good stop by Moyo...

 

[Kamran]

Play and miss by sarwan

 

[classic]

great deliveriy by rao

 

[immubhai]

Yes, Kashif you were right about Raao and his immaculate line....lets hope Rana bowls his rest of the spell with little grace

 

[Salman]

Peach of a ball from Rao to Sarwan

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

come on rao keep it up

 

[Raza Sohail]

Nothings wrong with Rao. Bus thori talent ki kami he, as my friend would say.

well your friend isnt looking great at the moment is he?

 

[Usman]

Only god can anwar why rana was selected today..

Well, as we are notrious for bringing people back into form, we thought we better follow the trend and help since the Windies lost to India!

 

[Noman]

Inzi always takes the powerplays one after the other. aint gonna change.

Hafess can bowl in power play overs.

 

[pak_all_the_way]

rare poor ball by rao 44444

 

[Salman]

FOUR... Sarwan

50 Partnership off 81 balls...

 

[Usman]

4 runs for Sarwan! damn!

 

[immubhai]

Raao is superb...bowling an immculate line

 

[syd_pak]

not bad going so far..... minus the retarded fielding .... We are doing well....

 

[Sparhawk]

that is the second time sarwan has hooked a good length ball for four!!!! That is Very ominous!!!

 

[mooz]

well your friend isnt looking great at the moment is he?

looking a little better after that four-ball.

 

[Kamran]

Leading edge good comeback from rao after getting hit for four

 

[Noman]

Sarwan scoring fast here..

 

[immubhai]

Sarwan made us all cry for his dropped catch...he read the line well and went after Raao bhai

 

[Raza Sohail]

Hafess can bowl in power play overs.

I agree.

 

[Noman]

Sarwin hitting the bowl hard.

 

[Salman]

Sarwan - 34
Chandarpaul - 18


We need a wicket too up the pressure...

 

[classic]

pakistan field placing is good today

 

[MCMLXXXII]

Hafess can bowl in power play overs.

That seems like the only option I suppose. But I have a feeling that Inzi might opt with Kaneria instead. I would be more confident with hafeez bowling in powerplay.

 

[Noman]

we need to some wickets here or good eco overs here.

 

[mooz]

when do u think kaneria gets the ball? I am guessing over 25 or beyond.

 

[Salman]

pakistan field placing is good today

suprisingly so...

DRINKS...

 

[Usman]

Great delivery from Rao!

 

[iafzal]

Another good over from Rao, the 4 was off a decent delivery Sarwan being aggressive

 

[Raza Sohail]

looking a little better after that four-ball.

3 overs for 5 runs, and you are still going after him? wow!

 

[immubhai]

Pak made Imran _Nazir stand at point and boy he fields well there

 

[safehands46]

This is what an opening batsmen is supposed to do. weather the storm. set it up for your big guns.

 

[Noman]

That seems like the only option I suppose. But I have a feeling that Inzi might opt with Kaneria instead. I would be more confident with hafeez bowling in powerplay.

kaneria struggle against left handers...

here I where there is a drink break,, BOb need to send a message to inzi about hafees

 

[hasbeen]

Pak made Imran _Nazir stand at point and boy he fields well there

he hasnt done anything special there yet

 

[iafzal]

Hafeez next then Kineria around 25 to replace Rao. You don't want Kineria to be bowling after 45 overs.

 

[Kamran]

I think we need to get hafeez on now and see if the pitch turns, if it does then we can get kaneria on aswell.

 

[sars_pal]

Lara was dropped first ball first game last world cup scored 100 hopefully Sars will do the same he looks great so far, Gul has bowled well but I think its in our favour at present

 

[the true passionist]

Rao doing well, he knows how to bowl after getting hit for a 4
