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

[Sparhawk]

we are still on top guys, repect to the great man abd samuels but they are still short of a good score

 

[mooz]

Hopefully Lara's wicket will take the wind out of Samuel's sails and delay the onslaught by 2-3 overs.

 

[Bilsher007]

That single should have been blocked by that fielder off hafeez's last ball.

 

[classic]

6 runs from now gives wi 220 current score 171/4

 

[Oxy]

171-4 off 42.

8 overs to go.

 

[BuffaloSoldier]

LOL the cameramen need to stop zooming in on those organisms boasting XY non autosomal chromosomes.

 

[classic]

is 250 still on the cards??

 

[mooz]

I Think its quite quirky how this stadium has a shortened off side boundary ( or is it leg ), which is obviously going to favour innumerable West Indian lefty batsmen.

U know they do change ends, so it will help our right handed bats as well.

 

[Bilsher007]

Samuels wicket will be a big key in restricting windies to a score less than 250.

 

[Oxy]

We slate our boys in the field - but I have been impressed with the unit. Lots of positives.

 

[BuffaloSoldier]

Oh Turd, Four Runs.

 

[Rob H]

Pulled to fine leg for 4. Poor ball. Gave away all the pressure built up in the over.

 

[Usman]

crap bowling and 4!

 

[Oxy]

Missed run out chance - ball not in Maliks hand whjen stumps broken.

 

[Bilsher007]

Samuels plays down leg for a boundary, i would bring that third man a bit finer as our spinners have tendency to bowl a bad delivery.

 

[Usman]

Throw was wide and hes home! was a real run out chance there!

 

[BuffaloSoldier]

I hope the aussie's have a miserable world cup.

 

[BuffaloSoldier]

I have no doubts that this is the most active forum on the internet at this very time.

OH TURD, FOUR MORE.

 

[Rob H]

played fine to 3rd man by Samuels. Great shot. 4 runs

 

[aamir]

Brian Lara one word describes this guy: Class

Besides the talent this is another reason why Tendulkar, Pietersen et al will never be in the same league as the one and only Brian Charles Lara.

 

[Usman]

Delicately cut for 4

 

[Oxy]

Another 4.

Samuels is annoying

 

[BuffaloSoldier]

Cachit

 

[Oxy]

And Samuels GONE!

Jammy gits luck ran out

181-5

 

[Usman]

out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Bilsher007]

Another boundary down third man by samuels, inzi get a third man finerrrrrr !!! as i speak samuels is caught at long on off hafeez !

 

[Rob H]

Got him. Heaved it straight to long on. Where the boundary rider takes an easy catch. Malik good catch.

181/5. Samuels gone!

 

[classic]

at last some pakistani fans in the crowd...samuel take a bow..YOU ARE OUT!!

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

hafeez gets samuels! caught at long on!!

 

[Toony™®]

5 down

220 still on..??

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

6 overs left

 

[desidudecool]

pakistan should win it from here..samuels gone too.advantage pakistan

 

[Straight Bat]

bowling hafeez

 

[Rob H]

Come on Ramdin lad!

 

[classic]

and now a mini collapse for sure is coming...

 

[Bilsher007]

Need to dismiss bravo and smith quickly and get into the windies tail. I would keep on bowling hafeez and malik as they both can keep it tight and take wickets.


Ohhh ramdin comes in ....and kaneria back into the attack

 

[NorthStar]

Danish to Denish

 

[Bilsher007]

Missed run out chance !!!

 

[12thMan]

Ballay Ballay

 

[dinakar]

west indies would reach atmost 220. should be easy for pakistan.

 

[Oxy]

Ramdin looks like a tailender!

 

[mooz]

another run-out chance wasted

 

[Bilsher007]

Kaneria should really bowl more googlies and top spinners rather than sharp leg spinners..

 

[Oxy]

Thats has to be out - stumped! Lightening fast reactions from Kami.

 

[Obsessed_in_a_good_way]

181/5 in 44 overs at 4.1 rpo. Most important: 6 overs remaining, that nearly anyone can bowl. Here's the analysis so far:

Umar Gul 7 1 21 1 3.00 (1nb, 1w)
Naved-ul-Hasan 8 1 33 0 4.12 (2nb)
Iftikhar Anjum 9 3 31 2 3.44
Danish Kaneria 8 2 42 0 5.25 (3w)
Mohammad Hafeez 7.6 0 29 2 3.62
Shoaib Malik 4 0 24 0 6.00

6 overs, 50 runs means a target of 232 ... very much within our reach. LOOKING GOOD!!!

 

[Rob H]

He's a gonna. Well bowled Dani

 

[Bilsher007]

Kaneria i think has got a wicket !!! ramdin stumped by kamran !

 

[pak_all_the_way]

kami appeals for stumping

looks out

kami excellent behind stumps 2day

 

[NorthStar]

Danish has un-done Denish

 

[Usman]

Out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Toony™®]

stumped!!

6 down

 

[classic]

what ever said about pakistan i have been extremley impressed with the bowling ,fielding and overall vibe of the pakistani and just as i type a mini collapse is on its way...stumped

 

[Oxy]

What did I say?

'Collapso Kings'

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

brilliant work from akmal!!

 

[Bilsher007]

and yes THIRD UMPIRE has confirmed it ...Kaneria gets reward !

 

[Straight Bat]

Danii

 

[mooz]

What did I say?

'Collapso Kings'

No you said 275

 

[octavian]

4th dismissal for Kami in the match.. could easily have been 5 had the caught lara

 

[Oxy]

Its great to be watching oin TV, and not on a online stream thats delayed by 3 mins, and you hear about the wkt on PP before you see it

 

[Bilsher007]

Need to get bravo and smith out, i would keep the spinners on right through to the 50 over.

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

i'd carry on with the spin. Bravo and smith both can hit big with the pacers but with the spinners they wont nearly be as damaging

 

[Oxy]

No you said 275

I said it was possible - but I definately said they were the 'collapso kings'

 

[pak_all_the_way]

220 max i reckon

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

No you said 275

i dont think he did!

 

[Bilsher007]

Well guys everyone has come to the party and picked up a wicket with exception of rana, for next game rana OUT and SAMI IN .

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

Need to get bravo and smith out, i would keep the spinners on right through to the 50 over.

definitely, that is what i would do. Good sign thus far - hafeez carries on

 

[octavian]

wheres gul ?

 

[Rob H]

What a huge 6 by Smith. Massive shot.

 

[Usman]

6!!!

 

[mooz]

i dont think he did!

No he definetly did.
Twice infact.

 

[Bilsher007]

I would bring a slip fielder for hafeez and kaneria. Taufel turns down LBW shout, ohh dear a six ..who hit this ??? hmmm looks like smith

 

[Usman]

wheres gul ?

Thats what I was thinking!

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

What a huge 6 by Smith. Massive shot.

not worried still, we'll pick him up

 

[octavian]

need gul or rana back instead of hafeez.. oh inzi when will you learn ??

 

[Rob H]

195/6 off 46. 230 a possibility.

 

[mooz]

Kami fails to collect the ball.
Oh boy

 

[pak_all_the_way]

looks like gul is on

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

smith favours the leg side big time - will be in danger against kaneria

 

[Bilsher007]

Need to get bravo and smith out as both NO RABBITS with BAT.

 

[pak_all_the_way]

gul will show you death bowling personified
