[WakaWaka]

Something tells me, if there was drs, this would have been wrapped up.

 

[Sledger]

Cheema back to bowl.

 

[Sledger]

Who is Uma Akmal? )

 

[Seen Sheen]

Come on, bring Hafeez on.

 

[duostyle]

Uma Akmal )

 

[Seen Sheen]

[W63L35]

"We are at a stage where we are discussing which of the Pakistani Fast Bowlers is worst...it used to be Opposite for decades... I am Sad i had to see this day...."

cricinfo

 

[Sledger]

What commentary.

 

[NJamal]

Cheema back

 

[hur rizvi]

Give hafeez the ball against left hander.........

 

[Seen Sheen]

Campbell making good use of Blue Band.

 

[jazbati]

aizaz looks much better than sohail

 

[Poison]

Cheema doesn't look 32.

 

[NJamal]

Maiden by Cheema

 

[hur rizvi]

Cheema is a disgrace

 

[Poison]

Loopy slower ball

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

have to get ervine on strike when ajmal bowls

 

[mithun_minhas]

Cheema has a terrible action. He doesn't even seem to look at the batsmen at the time of the release

 

[Sledger]

Cheema looks like more of a LO bowler. Looks like a Rana Naved type.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Only thing good about Cheema's bowling seems to be the slower one.

 

[Poison]

Cheema is a disgrace

How? Pakistan cricket fans like you are a disgrace. I'm surprised they even picked 4 wickets given the conditions.

 

[hur rizvi]

aizaz looks much better than sohail

Both are extremely crap....

 

[jazbati]

lol adnan akmal askin aizaz cheema to atleast tell him before he bowls a slower one :adnan

 

[WakaWaka]

lol adnan akmal askin aizaz cheema to atleast tell him before he bowls a slower one :adnan

 

[duostyle]

"Saeed bhai tussi great ho" :adnan

 

[NJamal]

Maiden by Ajmal and its drinks

 

[mithun_minhas]

"Haye Hayee Kya ball hain" )

Man, that is fruity from Adnan Akhmal.

 

[hur rizvi]

How? Pakistan cricket fans like you are a disgrace. I'm surprised they even picked 4 wickets given the conditions.

No pace
Doesnt make the batsman play
Doesnt have a good bouncer
Doesnt bowl a yorker

 

[Square Drive]

Mawoyo hogs the strike every time Ajmal is bowling. Ajmal and Hafeez should bowl in tnadem so they can target Ervine.

 

[Sledger]

Adnan Akmal is a funny guy. )

 

[WakaWaka]

Cheema 7 maidens out of 12.

Is he any good? Hows speed and swing?

 

[NJamal]

by Ervine

 

[hur rizvi]

Cheema 7 maidens out of 12.

Is he any good? Hows speed and swing?

No pace , no swing

 

[Atif]

 

[mithun_minhas]

Turn is too slow to be really dangerous.

From what I am watching, Ajmal is getting the ball to skid fast. Thats enough for a spinner. The ball is also taking decent spin and Ajmal is bowling well. The only thing is that he is bowling way too many overs.

Ajmal is not a big spinner of the ball.

 

[carbon11]

Cheema 7 maidens out of 12.

Is he any good? Hows speed and swing?

he is barely 5.5ft-5.6ft

that should tell u the whole story of whether he is an international level fast bowler.

 

[WakaWaka]

he is barely 5.5ft-5.6ft

that should tell u the whole story of whether he is an international level fast bowler.

 

[Poison]

Mawoyo is not reading the doosras but still has enough time to play it off the pitch. Very slow imo.

 

[Square Drive]

They should offer Ervine a single so that he can be on strike against Ajmal.

 

[cricfan967]

no ball

 

[shahrukh619]

No ball, Aizaz just won a 1 million dollars

 

[Square Drive]

If they get a wicket in the next 5 mins ( until 14:15), then I will eat my clothes.

 

[mithun_minhas]

he is barely 5.5ft-5.6ft

that should tell u the whole story of whether he is an international level fast bowler.

Thats like Teendu trying to be a Brett Lee

 

[shahrukh619]

aizaz is bowling good, he is able to swing the ball.

 

[NJamal]

193/4

 

[cricfan967]

If they get a wicket in the next 5 mins ( until 14:15), then I will eat my clothes.

 

[Square Drive]

They have to get at least another 2 wickets by the end of today to make this a competitive day.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Need to do some damage with new ball when it comes in 8 overs. Just 4 wickets down aint justifcation to winning toss and bowling 1st!

 

[Square Drive]

I know that ain't happening. And finally, it's Ajmal vs Ervine...

 

[NJamal]

17 overs left in the day after this one.

 

[Sledger]

Misbah crowding Ervine.

 

[Sledger]

LOL, nicely picked.

 

[Square Drive]

Ervine beaten!

 

[NJamal]

195/4

 

[Seen Sheen]

Adventurous stuff from Ervine.

 

[Square Drive]

LOL, nicely picked.

Who, me?

 

[cricfan967]

How is Ervine surviving

 

[Poison]

Ervine has no clue lol

 

[duostyle]

That's why Ervine was hiding from Ajmal

 

[Square Drive]

Just above the fielder!

 

[cricfan967]

Keep them under 280 and we should be good

 

[saeedhk]

Just came back and saw the scorecard

 

[Square Drive]

Since Ervine has no clue how to handle spinners, they should bring Hafeez on from the other end.

 

[NJamal]

Edged for by Ervine

 

[Poison]

Who's this commentator guy? He sounds like the Nigerian Fonejacker guy )

 

[cricfan967]

Would like to see Cheema coming into the batsmen

 

[NJamal]

200 up for Zimbabwe

 

[cricfan967]

200 up

 

[shahrukh619]

200 zimbabwe.

 

[Square Drive]

Keep them under 280 and we should be good

Yeah, but that's really hard. And BTW, I don't have to eat my clothes!

 

[cricfan967]

no ball ... beamer

 

[NJamal]

No ball &

 

[cricfan967]

Why is Cheema playing

 

[shahrukh619]

cheema good bowler very good bowler, Get him injuried

 

[mithun_minhas]

200 up for Zimbo.

 

[Square Drive]

 

[Seen Sheen]

No pace , no swing

IIRC, you desperately wanted to see Cheema in the lineup and said that he was a good bowler.


Now you have to back up no matter whether he is bowling crap or good. Otherwise you are making a fool out of yourself.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Cheema seems to be the Vinay Kumar of Pakistan

 

[talha3]

Are Zimbabwe going to make 300 against us?

 

[Square Drive]

Come on Mawoyo, just block the last ball so it can be Ervine vs Ajmal in the next over.
