Pakistan v Sri Lanka | Sharjah | 4th ODI | 20/11/11 | Pakistan Innings

[bablu_2010]

There is nothing in the pitch. Pakistan is just playing defensively today.

[IAJ]

What a cut from the legend!

[Bullet Drive]

Lovely stroke from YK, thats what is required. Lovely stroke.

[adnan yasin]

:four

good cut shot by YK

[attock]

Pakistan batting very slow as i am typing this younus hits 4

[Amjid Javed]

smashed for 4 by YK! GOOD SHOT!

[Bullet Drive]

Must bowl a wicket to wicket line here. Razzaq would have been so useful IMO.

[Asif321]

i feel a wicket

[Bullet Drive]

Not timed this time. YK playing positively though. Good start.

[GoldenEagle]

Younis the Lion hahaha thats a good joke

[Bullet Drive]

26-1 after 8.

[IAJ]

Younis Khan, at least, looking to play positively.

It's Hafeez who should play aggressively because he will throw away his wicket later on so better get som quick runs

[Bullet Drive]

YK 7 off 11.

hafeez on

[AFG_Brit]

I don't know if it's just me, but am actualy finding this start realy boring from pakistan. are there still power play overs at start of the innings?

[Bullet Drive]

6(21) - I feel Hafeez is going to give his wicket away anytime soon.

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 26/1 after 8 overs

A pretty slow start here!

[*sallu*]

YK looking positive

[Bullet Drive]

Better from Hafeez, 2 runs.

[Law]

Oh Lovely shot by hafeez.

[Bullet Drive]

I don't know if it's just me, but am actualy finding this start realy boring from pakistan. are there still power play overs at start of the innings?

Yes, batting pretty slow however.

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan cant afford to lose another wicket here!

[Impala_KaifTamasha]

Wicket seems a tad slow tbh, ball not coming on too well.

[Bullet Drive]

Flicked straight to the fielder.

[IAJ]

Missed out :facepalm:

[NJamal]

Farhat living true to his reputation.

[Bullet Drive]

40-1 after 10 will be good and then 5 an over for the next 10

[Bullet Drive]

Umar Akmal must come in next!

[Bullet Drive]

Missed from Hafeez again.

8(24)

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez can't give this away now because he has consumed way to many balls.

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan havent used the 1st powerplay off 10 overs as well as they should have in this series!

[Law]

Fernando to Hafeez - dot

[Bullet Drive]

Missed a full toss this time

[Seen Sheen]

Hafeez missing out twice on boundary balls.

[Bullet Drive]

Poor start IMO.

[Bullet Drive]

1 to Hafeez. Keeps strike :(

[M.A.G]

wat is brainless start, especially by hafeez.

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez must go on now. Poor slow start.

[Asif321]

can anyone say me were i can listen only commentry plzzzz

[Bullet Drive]

SR of 30 is extremely poor, he was quicker in test matches!

[Bullet Drive]

Sania Mirza is out there watching Malik :D

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 29/1 after 9 overs.

[Bullet Drive]

Malik or Umar in next hopefully.

[adnan yasin]

Slow start by pakistan

[imshally81]

Sania bhabhi :D

[Bullet Drive]

Missed another ball did Hafeez.

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez went for a slog. Poor start.

[Bullet Drive]

9(29) now.

[Strike!]

Pressure getting to Hafeez.

[IAJ]

If this joker get's out now after eating up 29 balls......

[adnan yasin]

HAfeez tried to play cross bat swing

completely missed it

[Hamxa89]

Hafeez has totally lost it. That is what happens when you go into your shell for no reason. He has been awful till now

[Asif321]

:yk

[Bullet Drive]

Another dot ball!

[ChampLeO]

Hafeez is losing it here

[Seen Sheen]

A heave. That's what happens when you fail to put the bad balls away! :hafeez

[Amjid Javed]

Ugly looking slog and miss from Hafeez!

[Bullet Drive]

Lovely stroke from hafeez, much better.

[imshally81]

:444

[IAJ]

FInally

[Law]

:4

[Bullet Drive]

:four beauty of a shot.

[Strike!]

:4

[adnan yasin]

now in the slot .. play it nicely by hafeez

:four

[GoldenEagle]

SHOT Professor Saab

[Bullet Drive]

Thats whats needed regularly in ODI cricket.

[Bullet Drive]

Much better from hafeez. four and then 1 run.

[ChampLeO]

FOUR by Hafeez

[IAJ]

Seems like a really good wicket for batting! Keep playing positively

[Amjid Javed]

cowlashed for 4!

[Seen Sheen]

Quick single. :hafeez

[Bullet Drive]

Those shots are needed more often in ODI's

[adnan yasin]

Mid on pushed back a bit

single stolen by hafeez

[Asif321]

:four

[Bullet Drive]

Defended from YK. 7(12)

[Bullet Drive]

Powerplay over, easy for singles now.

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez has to go in for a big century or something today, eaten up way to many dots.

[ads101]

ok with Hafeez, even if he starts slow, usually tries to make it up. Like he did last game.

[Bullet Drive]

Leg spin on :O

Poor captaincy, pacers doing well.

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 34/1 after 10

Pretty poor and slow start here from pakistan!

[adnan yasin]

34/1 in 10 overs

2nd PP will be very crucial for pakistan

so till then ...concentrate of rotating the strike ... if field is spread a bit

[Seen Sheen]

Ball is coming nicely onto that bat. Let's see how the pitch behaves when the spinners come on. Looks a belter.

[Bullet Drive]

ok with Hafeez, even if he starts slow, usually tries to make it up. Like he did last game.

He must go on for a century then, can't eat up that many dots and then not make a century.

[kkmix]

is it just me or did that ball go for a six and not four

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez is usually good against spin :D

[Amjid Javed]

Sri lanka using spinners now as expected.

[Bullet Drive]

is it just me or did that ball go for a six and not four

I thought so my self.

[Bullet Drive]

YK vs spin is nice to watch. Will milk them

[NJamal]

34/1 after 10 overs

[Bullet Drive]

Poor field from SL.. 2 easy singles.

[Law]

Waqar said, 2nd powerplay in progress. :facepalm:

[IAJ]

Keep taking singles

[IAJ]

:four

[Bullet Drive]

Swept beautifully from Hafeez

:four

[imshally81]

:44444444444444

[Noman]

When will Hafeez score big like 100 ++ runs???

[Bullet Drive]

19(34)

[adnan yasin]

:four

Hafeez starting to find boundaries now

[Strike!]

Hafeez finally getting a move on.

[Bullet Drive]

When will Hafeez score big like 100 ++ runs???

Done it 6 times before. 3 ODI hundreds, 3 test hundreds

Good quick single.

[adnan yasin]

7 of the over so far

[Impala_KaifTamasha]

Nicely swept by Hafeez, i think a score of around 250 would keep both teams intrested.

[Law]

Excellent running. Are you watching this MISBAH??

[Bullet Drive]

7 off the over, good over for Pakistan.

[adnan yasin]

41/1 in 11 overs

[Asif321]

commentry plz were i can listen????

[Bullet Drive]

I have NEVER seen Misbah take a QUICK single, have you lot? Honestly?

I am a fan of Misbah however I've never seen that happen?

[Bullet Drive]

commentry plz were i can listen????

Check BBC.co.uk/cricket

[Bullet Drive]

Another leg spinner on. WHy?

[Noman]

Hafeez is good player... When will score big??+

[Bullet Drive]

20(35) Hafeez

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez is good player... When will score big??+

Hopefully today, is settled now.

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 41/1 after 11 overs

[Noman]

Done it 6 times before. 3 ODI hundreds, 3 test hundreds

Good quick single.

Ehh Bhai he is better player than this 6 hundreds.... its like India are happy with RP Singh....

[Bullet Drive]

Well played for 1 by Hafeez.

[Friend786]

boundaries are really short ! :afridi

[Law]

Russel & Roshan can't help having org....s while talking about srilankan players..

[Bullet Drive]

Nicely played YK. 1 more run.

[Bullet Drive]

231 is average score here :O

[Bullet Drive]

52 dot balls. Easily 20 of those could have gone for runs.

[IAJ]

cartoon, eik chouka maar key phir wapis tukk tukk par agaya hai

[Bullet Drive]

Swept from YK. 1 run.

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 43/1 after 12 overs.

[Bullet Drive]

Another nice sweep. 1 more.

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez must bat through :D

[IAJ]

Sweep is dangeous, use your feet instead

[Bullet Drive]

45-1 after 12.3

[HumorMe]

cartoon, eik chouka maar key phir wapis tukk tukk par agaya hai

i think u need to calm down n just watch the game. too boring? u can always flip the channel.

[Bullet Drive]

Sweep is dangeous, use your feet instead

Yeah, thats why everytime one of these have used it they have got runs.

Using feet is even more dangerous.. Pakistan's don't use feet much vs spin apart from Umar & Afridi. Stumping comes into play.

[Bullet Drive]

48 for 1. 24 - Hafeez. must cash in.

[Law]

This bowler looks like KACHRA from Lagaan movie :))

[Amjid Javed]

Nice chip shot for 2.

[Asif321]

Check BBC.co.uk/cricket

noo :(

[Bullet Drive]

Prasanna will continue.

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 48/1 after 13 overs.

[Bullet Drive]

Nice single for YK.

[Bullet Drive]

1 more run. 50 runs now.

[Bullet Drive]

1 more run from the sweep :D

[Bullet Drive]

Reverse swept for 1.

[Law]

Good running again..

[Bullet Drive]

Great stuff, lovely strike rotating.

[ca_gold]

Why does russel feel the need to keep talking and talking.......

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 53/1 after 14 overs.

[Amjid Javed]

Dilshan on now...

[IAJ]

i think u need to calm down n just watch the game. too boring? u can always flip the channel.

I am calm and this isn't boring. All I want, and I think you as well, is that we keep taking singles against the spinners.

What's wrong with that? You tell me.

[Sledger]

Good partnership so far - wickets in hand the key.

[Sledger]

Sanath commentating. :yahoo

[Law]

Sanath with all his crap is a better commentator than Russel Arnold & Roshan.

#thereisaidit

[Hamxa89]

They need to up the RR.. Can't afford anything below 260 on this track

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 56/1 after 15 overs.

[Noman]

What is a good score on this track guys???

[Hamxa89]

Top edge and gone

[Strike!]

Too much sweeping. :|

[pakcricketfan]

Hafeez :(

:pissed:

[IAJ]

Bye Bye Hafeez!

[Sledger]

Younis has a better SR but Hafeez has been the aggressor? :raja

[ChampLeO]

Oh Hafeez what have you done!

[Sledger]

Hafeez out.

[farsiddiqui]

Umar Akmal should be in next.

[Momo]

Poor innings by Hafeez. Too defensive and too thuk-thuk.

[Asif321]

:out

[Sledger]

Shame, looked to be building a good partnership.

[Noman]

What is hafeez problem.. rubbish player with a good look when he plays shots..

[Hamxa89]

This pitch is not as tough to bat on as our batsmen are making it look to be ..

[IAJ]

At least we are batting better than Australia, they are 19/2.

[Noman]

MOhsin khan needs to have a word with Hafees 27 runs is not good enuff in this level. when u are set make a big score for the team..

[pakistani pride]

I hate this, we always gift our wickets !

[Noman]

At least we are batting better than Australia, they are 19/2.

Aus are facing quality bowling on a lively track.. our batsman are playing vs poor attack and in batting track...

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan in trouble now, we cant afford a go slow here now!

[Hamxa89]

Misbah :O

[Amjid Javed]

what is a good score on this track guys???

230+

[pakcricketfan]

What is hafeez problem.. rubbish player with a good look when he plays shots..

OTT comment.

[Rizwan25]

Wht do we get out of playing so defensively? Let's see if Mr tuk tuk can do something.

[pakcricketfan]

Yo! Misbah with a reverse sweep and a :4

[PTI tsunami]

400 strike rate tuk tuk

[IAJ]

Haha what a start by cuptaan

[Amjid Javed]

Misbah needs to get going quickly here!

[Sledger]

The legendary :misbah :yk partnership is here!

What a shot by the captain. :))

[farsiddiqui]

We're in Power Play and Misbah decides to come himself? Couldn't have sent Umar or even Afridi in?

[Hamxa89]

and tuk :))) .. What a way to get off the mark

[IAJ]

Aus are facing quality bowling on a lively track.. our batsman are playing vs poor attack and in batting track...

Yeah, hence the better start from us, make sense na

[Amjid Javed]

Reverse sweep 1st ball for 4 :)))

[ChampLeO]

Does Hafeez have some eyesight problems why does he hit in the air where there is a fielder

[Asif321]

haha :four u lil tuk tuk

[pakcricketfan]

Expect a lot more of sweeps and reverse sweeps now.. :yk :misbah

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 62/2 after 16 overs.

[Sledger]

Fernando on.

[Strike!]

:out :facepalm:

[IAJ]

:out

[RehanG]

lolji aj jet gae asi

[Asif321]

another run out may b ???

[Sledger]

Younis chips a slower ball straight to mid-off - soft dismissal.

[Amjid Javed]

Fernando onto bowl now. PP taken.

[IAJ]

They don't pick Fernando's slower ones

[Hamxa89]

Hadh hai! :facepalm:

[Sledger]

Collapse time. :yk

[Afridirocks]

another wicket down

this is just pathetic

[Amjid Javed]

:facepalm: *** YK!

Idiot!

Pak 62/3

[attock]

I thought it hit the ground......but no its out

[Asif321]

:out hahaah waste younis khan

[Strike!]

Mirza ji in.

[Sledger]

The legend, the man, the myth is here!

[Hamxa89]

3.84 RR.. 3 wickets down.. what a terrible tart

[IAJ]

A partnership like Malik and Yousuf in CT against India in 2009 is needed here by Malik and Misbah.

[Asif321]

shoaib malik and sarfraz have a chance to prove themselves

[Love Pakistan]

MALIK special time!

[Sledger]

Sania is here to watch her husband operate.

:raja

[Amjid Javed]

Malik the new man in.

[Asif321]

Malikkk is under pressure time for him to get 70-80

[Lara400]

Tame dismissals, but what did we expect from Younis? just not up for ODI cricket.

[pakistanigoneaussie]

why is malik here, umar akmal is the man in form, get him out there

[Osman]

terrible dismissal of YK

[Sledger]

lol @ the reaction. Its a fun cricket. :yk

[Amjid Javed]

Time for Malik to make an impact on return!

[Law]

Hahaha Ramiz hates Malik LOL :)))

[ChampLeO]

Lets see what Malik is made of

[Lara400]

FFS Camera goes onto his mrs

[Sledger]

Malik off the mark with one.

[pakcricketfan]

I went to have a glass of water, came back and Malik is on strike! :O

Yeh kya hua?!

[rhussain33]

A partnership like Malik and Yousuf in CT against India in 2009 is needed here by Malik and Misbah.

Come on dude... Misbah is no Moyo :facepalm:

He is uncapable of playing a knock like that

Umar Akmal can... no doubt

[Strike!]

Misbah should consolidate for now.

[Sledger]

Shoaib Malik hasn't been out as long as they're going on about. He played in Zimbabwe.

[Asif321]

i feel century from one of them

[attock]

Akmal should have come up......

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 63/3 after 17 overs.

Pakistan need a solid partnership here to some how get back into the game!

[AZ]

YK useless as always.

[Hamxa89]

And the Sri Lankans is attacking - Sanath :facepalm:

[chuck]

And the Sri Lankans is attacking - Sanath :facepalm:

ane he also say "Eet ees a good thing"

[cricketpassion]

And the Sri Lankans is attacking - Sanath :facepalm:

:akhtar

[chuck]

We need a Sanath smiley

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 64/3 after 18 :(

[ChampLeO]

Misbah should consolidate for now.

For now? he's gong to consolidate until the 45th over

[Watsupdoc]

What a collapse! :yk

[Sledger]

That's why they all came back stadium.

[Hamxa89]

Malik's timing looks totally off

[Hassan0987]

Nice and big partnership needed here

[thecricket]

Lol this is how we play PPlay, tuk tuk and more tuk tuk

[ChampLeO]

Come on Malik make Sania Mirza proud

[A.M.]

Malik should look for singles nw

[NJamal]

Tuk Tuk time now

[A.M.]

Lol this is how we play PPlay, tuk tuk and more tuk tuk

hav to do it when wickets fall

[Hamxa89]

Can't get bat on ball .. aaj ka match toh giya :(

[chuck]

I have a feeling Mr. Mirza will do well here.

[Strike!]

*** are they doing. :facepalm:

[A.M.]

almost a leading edge

[cricketpassion]

Malik wasting the PP

[Sledger]

Good bloking..

[Asif321]

malik will not last longer i feel

[A.M.]

[attock]

Negative cricket......Akmal should have come up the order...

[hur rizvi]

PAthetic stuff from :malik
