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

[Big Daddy]

Thats what good fielding does, Save a boundery , frustrate the batsman , make him fudge up and baam u have a wicket.

 

[mooz]

Is rao going to bowl out or will Inzi keep an over or 2 of his for the death.
Personally I would bowl him out.

 

[hasbeen]

lara vs kaneria - crucial battle comon daniiiiiiiiiiiii

 

[Noman]

glad to see sarwan didnt get the 50 mark..

 

[Oxy]

A well deserved wicket for Rao.

 

[Usman]

Wicket For Rao, Sarwan Gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[tauseefm]

RAO Got serwan and guess who caught it.. younis

 

[iafzal]

We are all set for Kineria vs. Lara.

 

[Kashif]

Rao wow!! Enters Lara, will he go after Kaneria!?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Rao has bowled like a pakistani glen mcgrath today!

 

[Lara400]

Cometh The Hour Cometh The Man...................

 

[Salman]

Lara time for sure!

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

Incomes Lara,, now this would be a masssive wicked if we can inshallah get him asap

 

[NorthStar]

Hope LARA like,
Gayle saves his Best for another day

 

[Bilsher007]

Lara will cone now, which mean soon we will have LARA vs KANERIA, i hope we get lara out quickly ! INSHALLAH

 

[Noman]

lets hope we can get lara out asap

 

[Oxy]

Donbt under-estimate the value of that awesome diving, 1 handed stop by Nazir. It played a part in Sarwan's dismissal!

 

[classic]

lara has a lot of pressure on him now

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

good captaincy thus far by inzi! Rao bowling really well. Rana could still come back at the end if needed at the death where he is a proven class perfomer

 

[iafzal]

No one has picked Rao as one of the leading bowler but he is at least showing all the signs

 

[mooz]

Rao is making me eat my words, and I couldn't be happier. And still hungry for more.

 

[Kamran]

Wicket maiden for rao

 

[TheSaint]

Rao has been excellent today & Sarwan did not deserve a 50 - so glad he got out when he did - Younis must be relieved-- but now seeing Lara coming in to take guard!!

 

[murphyslaw79]

Great Captaincy by Inzi to keep a slip for Sarwan, the gamble paid off

 

[Noman]

lovely over by Rao again here.. i just love him,. he is hero..

 

[Oxy]

Wkt maiden

No need for anyone to panic - Windies are the 'Collapso Kings'

 

[BOOM BOOM]

Younis makes amends but 49 runs later! Pakistan are on fire but da man Lara is expected next game on!

 

[Usman]

Wicket Maiden, great over! Will Danish bowl to Lara now???

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

wicket maiden for rao!!!

 

[Salman]

77/3 wicket maiden, Lara survives "Rao the Iftikars" last ball....

 

[classic]

wicket maiden for rao...excellent over well done rao...shabaash beta our duas are with you and the whole team ..

 

[Wazeeri]

good stuff Rao

 

[Noman]

maiden over needed here.

 

[Bilsher007]

If we get samuels and lara out quickly then pakistan will have big opportunity to dominate this match !!!

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

Wkt maiden

No need for anyone to panic - Windies are the 'Collapso Kings'

) ) nice!

 

[SlipperyBlue]

this is the perfect time for us to attack lara with danish. sarwan goes, match is tilted, first game of WC, this can stress Lara out!!!

or

He'll kick our @$$!!

 

[BOOM BOOM]

Although this is the 1st game Rao could be the surprise bowler of the tournament

 

[mooz]

Without sarawan WI would have a run-rate under 2. YKs dropped catch was pretty costly.

 

[Oxy]

I'll say it agian - very poor camera work. Its like hes holding a camcorder, and he suffers from the shakes!

 

[NorthStar]

Wkt maiden

No need for anyone to panic - Windies are the 'Collapso Kings'

Calypso Kings??

 

[pak_all_the_way]

lara itching to get on strike

 

[Noman]

the short run up has helped ddk alot

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

the beauty of spin - whittle through the overs quickly

 

[tauseefm]

Mashallah, a wicket madian over by rao.. if everybody does his job, pakistan has good chance of winning this match easily

 

[Kashif]

Rao has definitely been working hard behind the scenes and reaping the rewards.

 

[TheSaint]

Kaneria has to get Lara out early today as Lara so far has won all battles aginst him hands-down- would be even easier if Rao cheeta gets him early though!!

 

[pak_all_the_way]

maiden

 

[Lara400]

I say take Kaneria off while there is some pride left!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Noman]

lara itching to get on strike

he loves spin bowling..

 

[Oxy]

Good stuff DK.

Pak tightening the screws (does that phrase actually exist???)

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

maiden by danish! good bowling

 

[Usman]

Another Maiden!

 

[Kamran]

Another maiden really good stuff from pakistan here, keep it up.

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

Another maiden... 2 in a row great bowling by these two..

 

[kashmiri]

the match is in the bag, bring out the victory drums

dum da dum .. dum da dum

 

[12thMan]

WI 77-3
Rao 7 overs - 17 runs - 2 wickets

 

[Salman]

WI runrate dropping


West Indies RR 3.20


4 maidens bowled by Pak so far

Lara on Stike

 

[Bilsher007]

MASHALLAH another MAIDEN over by kaneria !!! NEed to get samuels and lara out quickly !!! How good is bravo, smith as batsmen ??

 

[Amjid Javed]

Kanerias line of off stick has been great!

 

[Oxy]

Rao gives us critics a good slap. Had a lot to prove as he wasnt exactly a popular choice.

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

well if lara wants to have a go at kaneria then so be it - with the precarious situation they are in, 1 slip and they are gone

 

[syd_pak]

in the bag... do you not watch Pakistani cricket in the past... shame on you

 

[mooz]

i don't recall the last time we bowled so many maidens.
Good disciplined bowling from Pakistan.

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

Rao gives us critics a good slap. Had a lot to prove as he wasnt exactly a popular choice.

i know what u mean - when teams were announced iw as wondering why sami wasnt picked ahead of him but good call from BW/inzi - will they get any praise for it?!

 

[Bilsher007]

What a ball by rao to LARA !

 

[Amjid Javed]

Kashmiri,

Dont get to carried away!

 

[Noman]

Sohailara means buisness

 

[Oxy]

I'd like to see Lara have a go at DK - no harm in it. DK wont be flustered by it.

 

[hasbeen]

MASHALLAH another MAIDEN over by kaneria !!! NEed to get samuels and lara out quickly !!! How good is bravo, smith as batsmen ??

smith is crap and bravo is in dodgy form so hopefully if we get lara quickly we can get them under 200

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

inzi with no fielders in deep - covers - we need more of this

 

[Bilsher007]

This Rao has really been a surprise package !

 

[Noman]

Kashmiri,

Dont get to carried away!

<agree on that,, lara is still there.

 

[pak_all_the_way]

WOW hafeex with a awesome stop!!!

 

[Noman]

what a shot and what a stop by hafees

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

its refreshing seeing us bowl with such discipline

 

[Kamran]

More grear fielding hafeez this time

 

[Salman]

WHAT A STOP!!!!! from Hafeez....


being coach by Nazir i see..

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

Woohoo another top save 4 runs saved for sure.. 3 maidens in a row ..

 

[Oxy]

Fantastic fielding from Hafeez - makes up for earlier error.

Not seen this for a while.

BTW - is Shoaib Malik playing?

 

[Usman]

Outstanding fielding from Hafeez, was a certain four!
