Pakistan v Sri Lanka| World T20 | Lords |12/6/09

[iZeeshan]

alright I am out of here.

This is simply unbearable. First six overs of Pakistan Batting reminds me of 80's when Muddasir and Shoaib were the pillars of Pakistan opening. :)
Can you stop cutting yourself? There's still so much time left!

Thank you

[Sparhawk]

Like what he is doing now. he is just become a TUK TUK player and watch out for the reqd. rate, when it goes out of control, he simply gives up and get out.

This is the Malik I know and was hoping to show up!

[Rana]

Malik playing well here ... SL need to get him before he settles down and takes away the match!

a lot of experts agree with you i guess, i think hes crap but tbh he is a match winner as long as he remains!

[Serendipity]

Shotty Malik, Mashallah

[Sparhawk]

Malik hits another 4
What a RUBBISH player

They call it TUK TUK batting

[invincible]

Poor bowling by Mathews :X

[pun500]

Kumble sounds very knowledgable
his commentary style is not good..but his knowledge is unquestionably there

[lalaji]

malik on rolll...
some of you must be eating your words...:):)P:

[iZeeshan]

Not even a single six? What a rubbish player!

His SR is only 150. Get rid of him.

[imrank_88]

25 of 17 malik! what garbage!! if he plays like this we will win! wouldnt want that now.

[Inswinging Yorker]

good over for pak 33 off 5

[FM87]

good over for pak...

[Veteran]

Well done, Shoaib. Hope Qadir and Ijaz Butt will shut up about him not being suited to 20-20. The guy can bat, bowl, and field.

[Inswinger]

15 off the over. Good over.Should release some nerves.

[12thMan]

Dr Evil: The plan to get Mathews to bowl his 3rd over worked.
teen lagatar chokkay.

[invincible]

[Rana]

[Zaad]

good stuff Malik..

[FM87]

[Rana]

[iZeeshan]

Garrr Younus is in. Akmal better be set in now then!

[FM87]

Rr 7.3

[Serendipity]

[saqeeb90]

[Inswinging Yorker]

well if you think he is retarded just coz he is indian than more power to you ...

[Rana]

[pak4life]

[Sparhawk]

Gone!!!! Another wicket!

Damn it we are self destructing

[Inswinger]

wow.

[FM87]

[pun500]

run out me thinks

[tauseefm]

Akmal run out.. it was an easy single but akmal stood in the middle of the pitch

[saqeeb90]

[lalaji]

run out

[Rana]

should be fine, weve got the start!

[iZeeshan]

Yep that's out.

[dani2k]

I say this is a tremendous contest. Whenever Pak tries to break free SL chips in ...good match on the cards

[Inswinger]

Looks out

[kablooee87]

That was a brilliant take.

[Inswinging Yorker]

runout? out bad blowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

[pun500]

yup...out

[Inswinging Yorker]

pak reeling hereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[invincible]

What just happened? :-O Had no idea ... :P

[waqar_ahmad]

Chalo ge, run out. Wah, kia baat hai. We find new ways to get out every damn time.

[Rana]

whats the decision?

[Inswinging Yorker]

srilanka playin like champions

[Sparhawk]

Younis and Misbah need to put on at least 50 runs.

Thank god fawad is playing today

[iZeeshan]

Younus and Misbah.

Classical joy.

Might be in a little bit of trouble here boys.

[lalaji]

i have a feeling that Afridi is going to win us this match for us

[Inswinging Yorker]

Pressure Pressure

[FM87]

misbah has to play a long good inning, as usual, if pak need to win this match.

[saeed-sohail]

kami gone we make things hard ourselves as always.

[Rana]

now were in trouble!

[pun500]

mendis and murli to come :)))

[Inswinging Yorker]

srilanka definitely in charge

[PakPassionate]

Lagta hai M&M ki nobaat nahi aye gi?

[invincible]

i have a feeling that Afridi is going to win us this match for us
I shall give you 20 to 1 on that if you are willing to bet a minimum of $10 :D Worth a punt?

(J/k mate ... )

[Sparhawk]

i have a feeling that Afridi is going to win us this match for us

I certainly wont count on him to score more than 15 runs.. hopefully he wont have to

[Inswinging Yorker]

this will be electric

[Archie]

Just watch Guys this is Fawad's day......................he is gonaa prove how good of a player is he.

[iZeeshan]

Brilliant bouncer from Malinga.

Things not lookin so hot anymore..

[invincible]

Top over by Malinga ... Took charge of the proceedings!

[iZeeshan]

Just watch Guys this is Fawad's day......................he is gonaa prove how good of a player is he.
I hope you're right!

[pun500]

I shall give you 20 to 1 on that if you are willing to bet a minimum of $10 :D Worth a punt?

(J/k mate ... )
afridi..i will be suprised if he lasts 6 balls

[iZeeshan]

Just three from the over.

We're going at 6 an over. Joy.

[lalaji]

I shall give you 20 to 1 on that if you are willing to bet a minimum of $10 :D Worth a punt?

(J/k mate ... )




lets do it bro?

i'm willing to take that

[Rana]

we are still not in a losing position tbh, we still have 4 good batsmen left!

[Inswinging Yorker]

good work

[Sparhawk]

DAMN IT!!! That looks out....

[pun500]

another one run out me thinks

[iZeeshan]

You've GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!?

[Sparhawk]

Might be in.... this is so close

[Rana]

damn!

[Inswinging Yorker]

lucky but retarded running by younis

[FM87]

very close...i think he just made it

[pun500]

not out just saved this is horrific running

[Inswinging Yorker]

xcellent thinking by mathewwwwwwwwwwwww

[iZeeshan]

He's safe. But this is pathetic stuff.

[Sparhawk]

Phewwww

In by a centimeter

[iZeeshan]

Need some big overs here people!

[pak4life]

pathetic!why are we soo poor at chasing

[lalaji]

man ....

MYK is trying hard ....

does anyone remember what happen to Nazir in that world cup final?

[Zaad]

another 1 :(

[Inswinging Yorker]

good pressure bowlin by s/l from ball one

[Khabri420]

YK turning into a run out king

[Rana]

no problem! still in this!

[ali_ed2006]

This looks very difficult to chase...only Afridi and Alam to come.

[Inswinging Yorker]

movin balll gives pak trouble ...not surprising

[iZeeshan]

They're not even trying to get runs!

38-3 in 6.4

[Inswinging Yorker]

Hey Pak Fans Ihope U Supportin My Team Next Match Windies :))

[Khabri420]

Younis can't seem to be hitting the straight ball either

[Inswinging Yorker]

MURA TO bowl

[Rana]

we are not expected to do anything special in this tournemant, we are proving everyone right!

[iZeeshan]

if you want to say something, say it. Don't paraphrase all your quotes with j/k, ahole.
Don't let the Pakistani tension get to you.

Let's stick together on this one. We can still win it. RRR isn't that bad.

[pun500]

test2 murli

[lalaji]

chill yaar....

ppl get emotional when you talk about afridi...:):)

[Inswinging Yorker]

44 off 8

[12thMan]

Malinga slow on field and Sangakkara quick to point it out to him.

[iZeeshan]

Still not impossible.

Could've been easier, but can be done. Just need a couple of big overs

[Inswinger]

We need tog et at least 7 rpo off the spinners. Just get singles and doubles, no need for risks.

[Gabbar Singh]

these two will just let the req run rate go way out of control then its over - pathetic batting.

[waqar_ahmad]

ITs not lost yet people, chill and watch. SO many negative comments here

[Inswinging Yorker]

ajantha in

[lalaji]

I don't touch on a sensitive issue of betting which is religiously wrong for you people


oh how nice of you ...:):):)

[SAM'S]

these two will just let the req run rate go way out of control then its over - pathetic batting.
and after that everyone will start blaming Afridi for throwing away his wicket when RRR would be 11 or 12

[pak4life]

we cant let mendis settle

[abc_to_xyz]

Run-Rate is still around 9.. We can get it if we play sensibly (Younis Khan and sense are two opposite things)..

[saqeeb90]

indian fans are baracking against pakistan...
indian showing their "true faces"

[iZeeshan]

Just need boundaries. Two every 3 overs will be good.

[Rana]

3 times in this tourny has malik got himself in and got out!

[invincible]

indian fans are baracking against pakistan...
indian showing their "true faces"
:)) Comon man! That's expected ... Pak fans would do the same to us and I wouldn't expect anything else ... That's what makes it the best "rivalry" in the game ...

[lalaji]

indian fans are baracking against pakistan...
indian showing their "true faces"



so what?

wouldnt' you root for WI in the 2nd match against india?

nothing wrong with them rooting ffor sl...

[Inswinging Yorker]

50 up

[saeed-sohail]

playing well so far.

[Inswinging Yorker]

51 off nine

[abc_to_xyz]

3 times in this tourny has malik got himself in and got out!


Atleast he got it.... Unlike butt and malik!

[invincible]

So far - pak batsmen playing Mendis quite comfortably ...

[iZeeshan]

Please try and get boundaries. Singles aren;t gonna work! Why don't they learn from the England game!?

[saqeeb90]

pak are 51-3
sril lanka were 81-1

[tauseefm]

indian fans are baracking against pakistan...
indian showing their "true faces"

don't u have anything useful to say bro? what would u do between IND vs WI match. would u be praying for indian players?

[Zaad]

all they need to do is keep wickets

and

this partnership should atleast stick out till

130+ around

[Inswinging Yorker]

baldo to bowl

[SAM'S]

indian fans are baracking against pakistan...
indian showing their "true faces"
we don't need indian support, we already have a huge Pakistani fan club

[abc_to_xyz]

1st target should be to bring run-rate above or equal to 6... then accelerate after 13-14-15 overs..

[lalaji]

:)) Comon man! That's expected ... Pak fans would do the same to us and I wouldn't expect anything else ... That's what makes it the best "rivalry" in the game ...



i agree.... the only prob is if i was on indina forum rooting against them, i will get banned while those idiots can say whatever they want...

now i'm not saying that you rooting for sl...and honestly i dont even care if you do ....

its fun...if we all start rooting for the same team, then there wont be any discussion..

[iZeeshan]

pak are 51-3
sril lanka were 81-1
Stop starting new threads for everything. Post your updates here.

[kablooee87]

51 off nine
so 100 needed in 11.

[Zaad]

100 runs in

11 overs
so preety much..
9 an over

[saqeeb90]

don't u have anything useful to say bro? what would u do between IND vs WI match. would u be praying for indian players?

i was thinking to go for india....
but now i won't..

[Amir]

whats the point of bowling so well if our batsmen can only ake 120?

[iZeeshan]

so 100 needed in 11.
It's been done...

[Sparhawk]

Reverse sweep for just 2 runs. Even 2 runs are good though.

[SAM'S]

Jaysuriya coming on, we won't get a better bowler to launch out of park

[kablooee87]

It's been done...
yep. I was just pointing how how drastically the scoring rate needs to change.

[Sparhawk]

Followed by a wide! small victories

[iZeeshan]

Come on, take Jayasuria to CLEANERS!

[saqeeb90]

aur misbah sab ne bhut achi tara manjah mara :)))

[Rana]

they should target jaysurya!

[lalaji]

we don't need indian support, we already have a huge Pakistani fan club



i'm sure they dont needs yours since they got about a billion plus ppl...and its not like your supporting them anyway..lol

[DonJee]

I like this - 6-8 runs and over and then go after 17th over!! we'll get there!

[Inswinger]

The match is still very well within reach. Just need to show some intent now.

[iZeeshan]

Still just going for singles.

Come on, take SOME kind of a risk!

[Sparhawk]

whats the point of bowling so well if our batsmen can only ake 120?

If the opening bowlers were good even 120 would be enough

[Inswinging Yorker]

59 off 10

[kablooee87]

Fun fact: Aside from Malik, nobody has hit a boundary for Pakistan.

[lalaji]

man i've yet to see anyone as neg as some of you guys are n here...

why rush man...we need a partnership...rr is not a problem....just take it easy gys

[invincible]

i agree.... the only prob is if i was on indina forum rooting against them, i will get banned while those idiots can say whatever they want...

now i'm not saying that you rooting for sl...and honestly i dont even care if you do ....

its fun...if we all start rooting for the same team, then there wont be any discussion..
True ...

In all honesty, it's a relief watching a game like Pak-SL where you don't care that much for the result but gain some satisfaction from the proceedings ... Watching a T20 game without any pressure is a big relief :D

[iZeeshan]

We can't even get our RR over 6!

This is really sad.

They need to start going for more.

[Inswinging Yorker]

swept for 44444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444 444

[saqeeb90]

need few boundaries in order to create some pressure,
no high shots..

[iZeeshan]

True ...

In all honesty, it's a relief watching a game like Pak-SL where you don't care that much for the result but gain some satisfaction from the proceedings ... Watching a T20 game without any pressure is a big relief :D
Kinda like India vs West Indies for us :D

[Hasan]

It's been done...

Pakistan batsmen accumulate runs and that is not enough,

[Sparhawk]

44444444444 Beautiful shot by Younis!

Just the right time to accelerate

[saqeeb90]

wishes do come true :))

[FM87]

90 in 10 will not be easy to chase

[lalaji]

Fun fact: Aside from Malik, nobody has hit a boundary for Pakistan.



so what?

and there you go ...as i type misbah hit one.....does it really matter if we score by 4's?

[abc_to_xyz]

It's been done...



it must be in 2007's WC.. right?


Btw, don't worry... Afridi and Fawad are still there... then don't forget Kukree...

[iZeeshan]

Great sweep shot for four!

Good stuff, come on keep going

[Inswinging Yorker]

good 2

[iZeeshan]

I have a feeling we'll see Fawad magic today.

[Sparhawk]

Looks like 2 good overs back to back

[FM87]

we also need some boundaries along with singles and twos

[tauseefm]

Fun fact: Aside from Malik, nobody has hit a boundary for Pakistan.

younis just did

[iZeeshan]

6 off the first 2 balls.

We're goin up.

[saqeeb90]

pls don't loose wickets fron another 5 overs.
pls

[lalaji]

i can't stand this harsha guy.....we are playing M&M well...we just need to keep on going like this...and MF harsha had to bring Qadir story....

i dont think we get extra points for getting this target in 18? do we?

[Inswinging Yorker]

9 off that over without takin any risks

[invincible]

Mendis rarely having a big impact on the game. Has to be said though - he's bowling to two really good players of spin !

[kablooee87]

85 from 56

[Sparhawk]

83 runs needed in 54 balls

[Inswinging Yorker]

:)) :))) i can't stand this harsha guy.....we are playing M&M well...we just need to keep on going like this...and MF harsha had to bring Qadir story....

i dont think we get extra points for getting this target in 18? do we?
:)) :)) dont get angry

[pak4life]

younis has to play a captains innings and finish not out and let the others play around him

[iZeeshan]

Looks like the batsmen are settling in...Keep it going till the 14th.

68-3 after 11.

Singles are easy to come by.

9.22 RRR

[FM87]

83 from 54 balls

[Zaad]

all we need to do is

get around
110 in 15 overs..

[invincible]

Of the 9 overs, 6 overs will be bowled by Malinga-Murali I think ...

[Archie]

hey anyone knows where is Razzaq .........did he make it UK?

[Inswinging Yorker]

lovely shot for 44444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444

[Inswinger]

Shot by Younus!!!

[Sparhawk]

Magnificent shot from Younis!!!!

Looks like the captain's gonna lead this chase.

[lalaji]

44444444444444

[saqeeb90]

Boundary

[Mohsin]

If we cant chase 150.........i'm worried.

But back to typical Pakistani batting, what is :inti doing?

Match against india.....2 wickets in 1 over completely puts us back
Match against England...2 wickets in same over (consecutive balls)
Match against SL.....2 wickets in same over.........i sense i pattern inti mian!

[FM87]

a super 4 by yunus

[iZeeshan]

Wonderful shot from YOunus.

FOUR!

[abc_to_xyz]

i can't stand this harsha guy.....we are playing M&M well...we just need to keep on going like this...and MF harsha had to bring Qadir story....

i dont think we get extra points for getting this target in 18? do we?



can't even see it happening in 19th over..

[Inswinging Yorker]

good 2 taken

[imrank_88]

perfect batting, they are playing well one boundry an over and the rest in singles and doubles. play like this for the next few overs and pressure will be on sri lanka!!

[invincible]

This is good batting by YK! Boundary off the first few balls and then taking singles ...

[saqeeb90]

2 good running by misbah

[Inswinging Yorker]

good stop by jehan

[iZeeshan]

I love the fact that I can watch cricket at school!

I had Study Hall and then lunch consecutively so I've caught all of Pakistan's innings so far.

Only 30 mins left though =(

[Archie]

I dont even see Intikhab alam on the field ...the other day Yawer saeed was jumping up and down against NL but no Inti?

[abc_to_xyz]

If we cant chase 150.........i'm worried.

But back to typical Pakistani batting, what is :inti doing?

Match against india.....2 wickets in 1 over completely puts us back
Match against England...2 wickets in same over (consecutive balls)
Match against SL.....2 wickets in same over.........i sense i pattern inti mian!

He was a bowler...not a batsman!

[Inswinger]

That's fielding!!

[Sparhawk]

9 runs off a murali over! Good stuff

[Inswinging Yorker]

9 off that over

[saqeeb90]

jahan mubarik Is he muslim?

[pak4life]

74 from 48 with seven wickets in hand

[lalaji]

these guys are playing well....get 7-8 runs from the much hype Mulri and Mendis combo...

[kablooee87]

At least they are going at enough of a clip now that they can position for an attack in the final overs.

[Inswinging Yorker]

slinger back this should be interestin

[FM87]

75 needed off 48 balls
