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

[Sherlock]

Gone

[chui_kadoo]

Safraz out.

[AbdulrazzaqFan]

:out :(

[iZaman]

This is unlucky man.

[Nice-N-Fresh]

Benefit of the doubt?

[hur rizvi]

Edge was there but a faint one...

hotspot would have saved him

[Sherlock]

120-7

[chui_kadoo]

Another failure for Sarfraz

[qamar84]

it hit tha bat

[asifp]

this DRS is realy crap. Atleast have a snick o meter

[Sledger]

Maybe not out but there's no HotSpot. Could have gone either way. A bit unlucky I think.

[NJamal]

He is gone

[Fireworks11]

Gul can bat if his eye is right

[IAJ]

Now Malinga will come and clean the tail up with his yorkers.

[Justcrazy]

Jamal Anwar should get a look in..... Zulqarnain is ot good..... a liar.

[anakwalajinn]

:gul + pp

[iemjaved]

BOD should go to batsman

[Hassan0987]

Please Afridi, take the pp and go for it, no reason to wait and see more batsmen getting out

[dhump]

is there no snicko aur sound base check ???

[asifp]

Another failure for Sarfraz

Along with the rest of the team. The guy was unlucky. Please

[pak4life]

come on umpire give the batsman the doubt

[Hamxa89]

Wrong decision. There was a definite sound there. Afridi went for the review instantaneously and so did Sarfraz

[Sledger]

Ajmal promoted ahead of Vivian Gul. :))

[Sherlock]

Afridi will go crazy and get out now.

[Sledger]

Viv being saved for the PP.

[Looney]

:ajmal out to bat ?

[mrk]

unlucky in 2 matches... not out he edged it

[Warfare]

So what happened to the benefit of doubt? Should have not been out imo.

[iemjaved]

can we change cheema with tanvir now..

[Asif321]

ohh Sad Sarfraz dont think u will b picked for next tour :(

[IAJ]

Why have DRS without hotspot?

[Fireworks11]

Needed hot spot. Shame.

[Sledger]

Googly easily picked and defended.

[Nice-N-Fresh]

The lankan commie not mentioning the benefit of doubt today... Hmm

[NJamal]

Ajmal comes to bat

[Sherlock]

1 ball to PP

[DOOSRA95]

How come Pakistan bats man fin it so hard to play with bat on straight delivery's.Sarfarsz ,Farhat , Malik etc.

[hur rizvi]

this DRS is realy crap. Atleast have a snick o meter

haha Snickometer is not a part of DRS even in SA/Aus series

[Fireworks11]

Lol Gul should have come..

[IAJ]

50s from Afridi and Ajmal/Gul needed desperately

[dhump]

The lankan commie not mentioning the benefit of doubt today... Hmm

I remember we defended such totals back in 90s :D

[iemjaved]

ajmal our best batsman

[Sledger]

120/7.

[JibranAnsari]

Was a woody sound, We need to have snicko or hotspot.

[freelance_cricketer]

7 gone, not looking good.

[USIND]

120/7.

[Asif321]

IDONE Will play better then our front line batters

[Sherlock]

PP for Afridi. Get out or get lucky son.

[Abdullah22]

Don ajmal in

[Hassan0987]

PP is due, Afridi on strike, Malinga with the ball

Match on

[Hamxa89]

So what happened to the benefit of doubt? Should have not been out imo.

Benefit goes the umpire in these cases. If there is no glaring evidence; the decision can not be overturned.

[Yaasir]

definitely an inside edge...this is BS!

[iemjaved]

rock solid

[NJamal]

120/7 after 35 overs, Batting PP enforced

[12cavalry]

Afridi looking soild today.
Has to be there till the end.

[Looney]

Powerplay :afridi

[Asif321]

haha wht a defence

[hur rizvi]

Power play Time....

[Superman1]

Very Unlucky for sarfraz, 2 times he is given out when was not out. bad luck.

[Hamxa89]

Was a woody sound, We need to have snicko or hotspot.

DRS is pretty handicapped without Hotspot

[Hassan0987]

Single taken

[Asif321]

had Misbah not shown kiddishness we would have got a decent target

[USIND]

Who's responsible for this collapse??

[NJamal]

Lala should play sensibly here.

[Sledger]

Afridi gets one - Ajmal faces Malinga.

[JibranAnsari]

Afridi should make sure that we at least make 150.

[NJamal]

Malinga back

[Sledger]

Dicey run, Afridi makes it.

[dhump]

so srilanka is one of those teams I hate the most because of rotos like dilshan and sangakara what was their problem with sarfaraz taking the review ???

[Warfare]

Benefit goes the umpire in these cases. If there is no glaring evidence; the decision can not be overturned.

Unluckily, there was no hotspot for Sarfraz or he would have been not out.

[Theo_14]

Malinga will destroy the tail enders in a blink of an eye. Need to take the batting PP IMO... About time Afridi get's out of the cell and just plays his natural game before he too departs with regrets.

[pakcricketfan]

Another failure for Sarfraz

That wasn't out methinks. If only we had the hotspot and snicko here.... :(

[Hassan0987]

Choka :afridi

[Hamxa89]

How can you not love this guy :afridi

[cricketpassion]

:four by Lala

[hur rizvi]

need atleast 150 here


:four

[dhump]

Who's responsible for this collapse??

aj momo match ka mujrim khoob hoga ??

[Sledger]

Full toss, gets past fine leg for four.

[12cavalry]

:four :D

[Outlaw]

4 runs. Come on afridi.

[Warfare]

Afridi isn't taking any of this bs :afridi

[Hamxa89]

Unluckily, there was no hotspot for Sarfraz or he would have been not out.

True. Really unlucky

[NJamal]

:four by Lala

[PerfectionPersonified]

44444444444444444444444444444444444444444

[A.M.]

:four

[IAJ]

Calm down now Afridi, take a single at this or last ball.

[Asif321]

:four

[Sledger]

Even if he fails to make another run, Afridi has batted very well today. Rarely has he kept his head as well as this.

[Hassan0987]

Beats him

[12cavalry]

We need to take the Power Play in the next over.

[Hassan0987]

Excellent running, well done Ajmal

[Sledger]

Dabbed for one.

[Outlaw]

If only razzaq was here. Who remembers the comeback against Sri Lanka lol

[Hamxa89]

I play for the team :ajmal

[Statsman]

Afridi, the last hope :four:

[USIND]

127/7.

[NJamal]

127/7 after 36 overs

[qamar84]

ajmal supporting very well afrdii

[pakcricketfan]

Malinga will destroy the tail enders in a blink of an eye. Need to take the batting PP IMO... About time Afridi get's out of the cell and just plays his natural game before he too departs with regrets.

The batting pp is already on. We didn't need to take it... khud he aagaya :))

According to the new rules, the batting pp must be used up within the 40 overs.

[Asif321]

Aju lol

[Fireworks11]

Come on Shahid, stay till the end!

[Justcrazy]

Afridi needs support from the other end.... he needs to bat out all this PP>

[Hassan0987]

Single on first ball

[Hamxa89]

Smart thing would've been to give a spinner a go against Afridi in the PP

[Fireworks11]

Gul in the batting PP plz

[hur rizvi]

Ajmal on strike dangerous

[Sledger]

Afridi takes another single.

[A.M.]

single to ajmal

[Hamxa89]

Should not be taking singles on the first ball of the over in the PP

[NJamal]

Come on Lala carry on in this fashion.

[Abdullah22]

Who's responsible for this collapse??

For me the ground staff, why they produced such a slow wicket, Hain?:manzoor

[dhump]

Come on Lala carry on in this fashion.

he need partner really.

[IAJ]

why take single on first ball?

[Zaad]

i really hope afridi carries his bat out today, and pakistan hopefully bats till the 50th over.

[Zeeraq]

Our Middle orders is the worst. The can't handle the pressure Afridi is playing better then Younus,Misbah,Akmal & Malik.

[Justcrazy]

still14 overs to go.... its 74 balls.Bat out them..... At least wth singles you can get 35 - 40 .

[DOOSRA95]

Sri Lamkans are good at Rugby? Sanath.

[Sledger]

Afridi needs a single now.

[Hassan0987]

Single last ball, Afridi keeps strike

[JibranAnsari]

2pp overs left

[hur rizvi]

Sharjah under lights looking beautiful...

[Sledger]

130/7 - Afridi doing well with the lower order.

[iemjaved]

afridi keeps the strike

[USIND]

130/7 after 37.

[A.M.]

Afridi takes a single

[WNC]

Big shot time now. Afridi shouldn't but he would

[Hassan0987]

Good shot for two

[NJamal]

130/7 after 37 overs

[Sledger]

Great fielding - two runs.

[A.M.]

[WNC]

Sensible batting.

[DOOSRA95]

Afridi u can make it.

[Hassan0987]

Another good single

[12cavalry]

Cmon...no single.

[PerfectionPersonified]

afridi 22222222222222222222

[hur rizvi]

Ajmal exposed to Malinga...

[USIND]

For me the ground staff, why they produced such a slow wicket, Hain?:manzoor

:23: Not a good excuse.:P

[A.M.]

[PerfectionPersonified]

[cricketpassion]

Well played Ajmal

[Hassan0987]

Well played Ajmal, keeps the yorker out

[A.M.]

defended

[Sledger]

Easily kept out - Malinga is very easy for my. :ajmal

Afridi applauding LOL.

[Justcrazy]

Ajmal needs o get single and give the strike back to Lala.

[Fireworks11]

Afridi looking good

[12cavalry]

The previous over Afridi took a single on the 1st ball, this over he takes a single on the 2nd ball.

He should be facing max time in the PP.

[uberkoen]

Nicely blocked my Ajmal.

[Abdullah22]

I love the look on ajmal's face :))

[Hassan0987]

Again, Ajmal doing well here :)

[hur rizvi]

Ajmal survives..

[Sledger]

Again blocked with ease. Ajmal is a bonafide legend.

[Looney]

must say , good support from :ajmal to :afridi

[iemjaved]

Ajmal you beauty

[dhump]

hahah ajmal too good for Malinga lol

[Asif321]

aju beauty

[USIND]

135/7.

[NJamal]

Ajmal "The WALL"

[Sledger]

The previous over Afridi took a single on the 1st ball, this over he takes a single on the 2nd ball.

He should be facing max time in the PP.

Batting 50 is more important. PP should be forgotten about now.

180-200 can be competitive.

[anakwalajinn]

lol did jayasuriya say to stop dhoni... to stop those yorkers?

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Idone is so ICEcold about Malingas Yorkers.

[Justcrazy]

Lala 6778 runs ............ and counting.

[Asif321]

Ajmal should b promoted at 3

[A.M.]

well done

[Fireworks11]

Gul padded up

[Looney]

Nicely blocked my Ajmal.

:misbah eat your heart out

[12cavalry]

Second last over of the PP.

[DOOSRA95]

so far so good ajmal

[Hassan0987]

Two runs taken after misfield

[JibranAnsari]

Last PP over.

[A.M.]

2 more

[Justcrazy]

Still 72 balls to go.... singles can get you at least 45 .... just be patient.

[USIND]

Misfield.:D

[NJamal]

LOL @ Malinga

[anakwalajinn]

masha Allah, looks like :ajmal has worked on his batting. can see why he was promoted ahead of :gul

[hur rizvi]

Noone is picking fernando's slower ball today

[A.M.]

Last PP over.

there is another one

[Sledger]

Afridi was just in I think. Throw missed anyway.

[12cavalry]

Batting 50 is more important. PP should be forgotten about now.

180-200 can be competitive.

How do you think we can play 50, if we keep exposing our tail to Malinga?

[VTEC]

Lala going strong

a Rare sight :akhtar

[A.M.]

single

[uberkoen]

Can't expect Afridi to keep the strike. One needs to be reasonable. He needs to go for the runs that are available and Ajmal is doing a job job supporting him.

[Asif321]

200 needed

[Sledger]

Afridi. :)))

[Hassan0987]

Confusion, single taken

[Khabri420]

Need to take this over by over. 3 wickets in hand to bat out 12 overs.

[Asif321]

almost OUT

[Justcrazy]

If pakistan can bat out these 12 overs sensibly they will have something to bowl at.

[IAJ]

Stop crying Afridi!

[iemjaved]

Afridi "Mujhe nahin patta chalta hain"

[Hassan0987]

Whatta shot Lala :afridi

[USIND]

Ajmal is a joker,he is smiling. :))

[JibranAnsari]

there is another one

oh then the cricinfo is misleading

[Sledger]

How do you think we can play 50, if we keep exposing our tail to Malinga?

Because 11 overs really isn't that much with application and Afridi farming the strike.

[Abdullah22]

o o glove change, is that a sign? :zoni

[12cavalry]

lool...Afridi aiminf for the burj ul arab with that shot.

[Hassan0987]

Bad timing, single taken

[dhump]

Ajmal should listen to afridi really he should for running he is not the one to bat but to support.

[pakcricketfan]

LOL Ajmal is irritating Afridi

[A.M.]

come on dont worry jst play as u r

[NJamal]

Ajmal what are u doing yaar?

[uberkoen]

Afridi. Controooollll!!!!!

[Fireworks11]

Need to give Shahid the strike

[anakwalajinn]

:afridi playing very causiously in the powerplay. interesting :inti

lol @ :afridi telling someone else to calm down. what is happening to the world :murali

[iemjaved]

afridi getting impatient

[Khabri420]

It's a circus out there :)))

[Asif321]

hahahahha comedy

[Justcrazy]

Ajmal needs to just push for a single that's all..... no heroics required at this moment.

[A.M.]

anthr single

[Hassan0987]

Somebody, give an English lesson to Jayasuriya :raja

[Warfare]

You need call and run - Sanath

[Sledger]

Ajmal's technique is better than :dons

[Radiance Of Australis]

thank God that shot failed. Warna he would have been a goner :P

[Outlaw]

Solid defence from ajmal

[USIND]

140/7 after 39.

[anakwalajinn]

Need to take this over by over. 3 wickets in hand to bat out 12 overs.

salam kb bhai :zoni

check cd bhai's intro thread :moyo

[A.M.]

no run

[Khabri420]

Solid defense from Ajmal...:ajmal

[NJamal]

140/7 after 39 overs

[Hassan0987]

One over remaining in the powerplay, should take it easily

[Abdullah22]

ajmal irritated afrid with his running :))

[Sledger]

You need call and run - Sanath

:facepalm:

It's not 'run' it's 'rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ruuun'.

[iemjaved]

Misbah's match fee will go to ajmal today

[AbdulrazzaqFan]

Afridi's getting impatient :P

[12cavalry]

This Afridi innings could well save the match.

[Warfare]

Pakistani birds in the stands :afridi

[Justcrazy]

Lala on 6782 runs and counting

[dhump]

one needs to smack our batsmans head for running really a strong big smack.

[IAJ]

LOL Ajmal is irritating Afridi

Lols it is actually totally opposite.

[pakcricketfan]

Afridi to play his longest ODI innings today (in terms of no. of balls faced that is).

[hur rizvi]

oh man ajmal again exposed to malinga...

he can finish it in 3 balls

[Fireworks11]

Still plenty of time

[Hassan0987]

Nice pull by Ajmal :ajmal

[Sledger]

Ajmal gets another single.

[dhump]

Lala on 6782 runs and counting

LOL should be the next after Jaywardane to get to 10000 :D

[Justcrazy]

66 balls to go..... take it easy. Another 40 is possible... SRI Lanka will bowl some loose stuff soon....

[12cavalry]

Epic pull cum flick shot by Ajmal. :D

[anakwalajinn]

thank God that shot failed. Warna he would have been a goner :P

u should also be a goner @ head to the istadium! :roa

[Sledger]

Slower ball by Malinga and another run.

[Khabri420]

Legendary hook from Ajmal...:)))

[NJamal]

Ajmal Cheetah!!!!!

[A.M.]

single ajmal races to 6

[Hassan0987]

Misbah looking relaxed in the dressing room
