[offstump]

16.4 Mohammad Sami to Collingwood, OUT: Gone! full and bit wide outside
off, goes for the drive, thick outside edge goes straight in the
hands of Malik at point who makes no mistake!

[Nauman]

Some useless waster called Sami has just struck....

Its just one wicket and besides it was batsman who made a hash of an ok delivery.

[Somali Pirate]

good on ya get rid of these tail enders.It's the least you can do.

[IMMY69]

jones wont survive!!! i feel sami is gonna take another

[pakistani pride]

[Kashif]

Damn I'm at work. I can watch it on my Vodafone 3G phone but I cannot connect to the live coverage...aarghhhhhh!!...the irony is that I am working in the head office of Vodafone!

(going to complain to the 3G dept)

[Oxy]

Flintoff/Plunkett-dangermen for Englistan

[Adeel786]

Its just one wicket and besides it was batsman who made a hash of an ok delivery.

HOW ABOUT THE DELIVERY BEFORE :12:
GIVE CREDIT WHERE ITS DUE BHAI..SAMI IS BOWLING WELL

[Raz]

91.7mph from Sami!

[Hydro]

[Hydro]

we need flintoff

[hasanahmad]

we are into the fringe of the tail

[Noddy]

great arm ball from the pathan....

[IMMY69]

arshad vs flintoff...crucial period

[Oxy]

Its just one wicket and besides it was batsman who made a hash of an ok delivery.

You're right. We should ask Collingwood to come back, and delete the wkt from the scorebook...because it was a cr&p shot!

[akpower]

Agayaa

Mr. 3-0

Gaya Mr.3-0

:97:

[Kashif]

Brilliant!! Sami arrives to the party...finish em off Sami boy.

[mulan]

Mclaren Have Signed Alonso For 2007 Wrong thread....But, you're kidding right??!!! What's he doin' leaving Renault....They've been good for him :12:

BTW...If he's going to McLaren...Where's Kimi and JP off to? Sorry :D

[Raz]

Excellent over from Sami!!!

[offstump]

Damn I'm at work. I can watch it on my Vodafone 3G phone but I cannot connect to the live coverage...aarghhhhhh!!...the irony is that I am working in the head office of Vodafone!

(going to complain to the 3G dept)

:))

[adi 101]

boom boom arshad to jones.................

[adi 101]

lol kashif

[Somali Pirate]

Its just one wicket and besides it was batsman who made a hash of an ok delivery.


plz nauman.Let sami fans celebrate this wickets.After all mr potential rarely gets any wickets

[Nauman]

You're right. We should ask Collingwood to come back, and delete the wkt from the scorebook...because it was a cr&p shot!

Now you are going on the other extreme, calm down Oxy :P control your emotions.

[IMMY69]

come on arshad!!!

[Noddy]

well done sam...it doesnt matter how u get them...they all count. lets hope for another quick one

[UJ]

This is Sami's time to impress Imran!!

A couple more wickets here plz!!!!

[Oxy]

I want Bootha to come out and say the umpires cheated! Just like he was spewing out during the test series when Pak got some luck!

[hasanahmad]

is this the afridi paced wicket/

[Hydro]

I want Bootha to come out and say the umpires cheated! Just like he was spewing out during the test series when Pak got some luck!


he wont but boycott did

[Ayubi]

GWAAAN SAMI - who needs Immy K! ;)

[UJ]

I want Bootha to come out and say the umpires cheated! Just like he was spewing out during the test series when Pak got some luck!

That would be the day!!

[IMMY69]

come on guys lets get behind each and every bowler!!!!

[Ayubi]

Maybe Immy worked on him this morning!

[the true passionist]

i hope pak is not allowing them easy singles by crowding the batsmen

[mulan]

Flintoff is the one to get now....

I think Jones may have it somewhere in the back of his head that he may be playing for his place in the team (ex-saffie seems a better batsmen, although I don't know what his glove work is like) And he is a couple of years younger too....

And if he doesn't know it...I suggest someone whisper it in his ear...

[Hydro]

jones gets a four

[Oxy]

Now you are going on the other extreme, calm down Oxy :P control your emotions.


I'm no Sami fan-but when he's selected-I will NOT slag him off. I will NOT devalue his wkts this series.

Disappointed this series at the way so many 'fans' criticise whilst these guys are out in the middle reporesenting the country!

After the series is over we can talk about getting rid of 'so and so'.

[IMMY69]

where is the mid-off?????

sami is pitching it up...u gotta have a mid-off!!

[Adeel786]

Flintoff is the one to get now....

I think Jones may have it somewhere in the back of his head that he may be playing for his place in the team (ex-saffie seems a better batsmen, although I don't know what his glove work is like) And he is a couple of years younger too....

And if he doesn't know it...I suggest someone whisper it in his ear...


Are you pakistani, Mulan?

[adi 101]

Jones will be out soon, flintoff is the only threat

[adi 101]

in the air and four!

[shahmaan]

i think sami has lots of talent.....we need a world class bowler to coach him one on one like imran will...it will bring out the best in sami

[Hydro]

4 more flintoff

10 of smai over

replace him

[the true passionist]

jones can stick around...so both wkts are important before the due comes in

[sars_pal]

If we can get f off out and soon we can run through them

[UJ]

Lets just hope Flintoff ends up running out of partners haha

[Nauman]

I'm no Sami fan-but when he's selected-I will NOT slag him off. I will NOT devalue his wkts this series.

Disappointed this series at the way so many 'fans' criticise whilst these guys are out in the middle reporesenting the country!

After the series is over we can talk about getting rid of 'so and so'.

The bottom line is that he is in the team not on his ability but because of favouritism shown by captain and coach, there are far more deserving bowlers sitting on the bench who should be out there representing the country.

[KaSaNoVa_G]

make this sami last over please.. get afridi bowling for him now..

[Ayubi]

DAMN! Immy K's got his work cut out!

[offstump]

too much width from sami...so inconsistent...brilliance followed by stupidity

[adi 101]

sami still pumped up and i have reached a landmark amount of posts!

[IMMY69]

spinners!!! we need spinners from both end...time to unleash the beast!

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

well nauman on other hand - great deliveries dont always get the wickets - i know what i would prefer to see

[Noddy]

sami striving for outswing/reverse...

not happening for him

[Hydro]

myk misses a stumping

[adi 101]

Younis could have had him their rather then treating the ball like a hot potatoe he should have fired at the stumps!

[Somali Pirate]

The bottom line is that he is in the team not on his ability but because of favouritism shown by captain and coach, there are far more deserving bowlers sitting on the bench who should be out there representing the country.

trust oxy to ignore this ;-)

[the true passionist]

it should be 2 way spin for a while...

[Hydro]

jones is struggling against kahn get malik on

[adi 101]

straight one not picked by batter and keeper

[Oxy]

trust oxy to ignore this ;-)

Apologies for showing a bit of loyalty to the guys that are playing right now...I think I will wait until the game is over before criticising!

[UJ]

Required run rate is about 4 an over atm

[Hydro]

commedy of errors

fielding is poor

[IMMY69]

spin...we need spin

[alghazzali]

We make England's Pacers look good and they return the favour by doing the same for our spinners.

[the true passionist]

self-spoils a good over

[adi 101]

118 required of 30 overs

[Oxy]

trust oxy to ignore this ;-)

...says the guy who was asking 'Arshad who???' a few hours ago.

Disloyal...thats what most of you guys are proving to be.

[IMMY69]

if egnlsnd bat out overs they'll win

we need wickets...we need spinners at each end!

[adi 101]

he would have been out if arshad hit the stumps

[offstump]

eventful over...jones lost at sea against arshad's spin and guile...

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

we need 1 more before the tail is in! - afridi needs to be brought on

[Somali Pirate]

Apologies for showing a bit of loyalty to the guys that are playing right now...I think I will wait until the game is over before criticising!


no probs then boss

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

with spin at both ends - overs are skittled through and run rate tends to rise and the pressure builds

[Somali Pirate]

...says the guy who was asking 'Arshad who???' a few hours ago.

Disloyal...thats what most of you guys are proving to be.

yaar.Arshad picked just one wicket and i am supposed to be awe struck :)

[shahmaan]

poeple stop criticising and get behind pakistan

[akpower]

poor close in fielding

[alghazzali]

yaar.Arshad picked just one wicket and i am supposed to be awe struck :)

Arguably the most important wicket!! Look at the context of the match !

[IMMY69]

come on paks!!!! get spin on from both ends!!!

[Political Correctness]

Wheel Of Time fan is totally correct. Arshad didn't pull miracles out of aether, taking one wicket on an extremely helpfull track proves exactly zilch.

[the true passionist]

we need another wkt in the next 10-15 runs to keep the pressure up..

[Azam6380]

whats the score?

[Somali Pirate]

guys for good to be there evil should exists.Critics must occupy a high place in pakpassion boardrooms just like the optimists

[mulan]

Are you pakistani, Mulan? Nope.... But it doesn't mean I can't support them, right? :D

[Ayubi]

Arshad's bowling is pretty inoccuous!

[alghazzali]

guys for good to be there evil should exists.Critics must occupy a high place in pakpassion boardrooms just like the optimists


Anything in moderation is decent. ;)

[Somali Pirate]

Wheel Of Time fan is totally correct. Arshad didn't pull miracles out of aether, taking one wicket on an extremely helpfull track proves exactly zilch.

[Noddy]

eng arent going to take risks against arshad, they feel they could get runs off lala...That would be fatal for them if they have this strategy...

By the time the seamers get on, it shoould be all over for them...I dont see Razzi getting a bowl here, as Malik is waiting, too.

[akpower]

[the true passionist]

arshad is bowling realllllllllly well!

[Hydro]

eng arent going to take risks against arshad, they feel they could get runs off lala...That would be fatal for them if they have this strategy...

By the time the seamers get on, it shoould be all over for them...I dont see Razzi getting a bowl here, as Malik is waiting, too.


whos lala

[IMMY69]

come on lala

[Political Correctness]

what on earth possessed you?

Commonsense.

:p


Pakistan looking good here, but they cannot afford to relax and let England trickle away singles and doubles. Perhaps trying on Razzaq and Malik would be worthwhile?

[adi 101]

Afridi speeding through his overs, he needs to chill.

[IMMY69]

lala is the beast!

[the true passionist]

4.4 rpo reqd

[adi 101]

[UJ]

The Afridi is on fire. Eng have no answer at the moment.

[Hydro]

[shahmaan]

lala....means brother in pushto

[Oxy]

That Beast fellow strikes again.

Geriant Jones doesnt move-he is out...but he wont walk.

If he is not fined for dissent, then I have to say that Pak HAS to refuse to play in ICC games where Pak are punished for farting in their sleep, yeat WHITE teams can commit murder-and get off!

[the true passionist]

now what is it with this current Pak team.....we are defending small totalls...bowling teams out in a session nd half?

[UJ]

Once again the wickets been shared around amongst the Pak bowlers. Everyone wants a piece of the action and why not!!!!!

[shahmaan]

afridi pustoon power stikes again

[UJ]

now what is it with this current Pak team.....we are defending small totalls...bowling teams out in a session nd half?

Its coz we have so many beasts in the team now!! :D

[Ayubi]

Plonk off!

[adi 101]

[Somali Pirate]

[Oxy]

Apologies to Geriant Jones.

The ball was caught about 10 feet off the ground, thus allowing for some doubt.

[Somali Pirate]

afridi pustoon power stikes again

[Hydro]

Apologies to Geriant Jones.

The ball was caught about 10 feet off the ground, thus allowing for some doubt.

[shahmaan]

what the hell is pushtoon?is that the same as pathan?

[offstump]

hats off to rana, who bowled like a demon and opened the floodgates for us, plus he had trescothick caught behind, can't forget his effort

[Hydro]

[Hydro]

[adi 101]

[Hydro]

[Big Mac]

[Somali Pirate]

[Raz]

[adi 101]

[Hydro]

[Raz]

Afridi gets another!!!!!!

[Nauman]

YAY another wicket.

[Political Correctness]

This one's a bit suspect but Pakistan completely deserved it after the earlier attrocious conker by turd-brain.

[Raz]

How quick was that last delivery?

[lakha84]

the real beast chaa gaya

[sars_pal]

yes!

[adi 101]

Kabir Ali In....

[Big Mac]

I blame the racist ICC for not allowing Shabbir to continue bowling despite only having a flex of 30 degrees

[shahmaan]

pustoon power strikes again...and on shabbiers note... sadly his action is illegal and he had to be banned...but not to worry we have tonnes of talent...umar gul..anohter pathan comes to mind

[offstump]

noddy bhai any details on shabbir's ban?

[Oxy]

Was talking a Eng supporter (parent at my sons school). He is embarrassed at the way Eng have given up on this tour.

Feels as though they have short changed the fans (esp those who travelled out there and also those paying big bucks to watch them on Sky)

[lakha84]

Damn . What did Afridi have for breakfast today????

he just prayed tahjud ki namaz t-day

[pakistani pride]

loos like we can defend any target these days what a team !
