Pakistan v South Africa, 2nd ODI, Abu Dhabi, Oct 31, 2010

I suppose it is international cricket.

* sings* Abu Dhabi do, I say Abu Dhabi do ...

wherever I wander, wherever I roam

Afridi being a jackarse to the younger players, yelling for no reason wont get the job done.

Ingram is a lucky man, could have been out 4 times in 10 minutes

Amazing how much a bowler(Ajmal in this case) can be handicapped by poor fielding and poor captaincy

There's too much dead wood in this Pakistan ODI side. Razzaq, Shoaib, Afridi, and Misbah are probably all past their best.

There is no one better than Afridi, he still has the ability to play match turning innings and the bowling isn't too bad either

Umar Akmal as a WK wont be a bad choice because Zulq can't bat and has struggled with gloves as well

Great

So a promising youngster is made to bat totally out of his position!

Ah so they're still mucking around Afridi then?

Pitch isn't that good for batting, SA have at least 40 runs too many

Another rough one for Younis Khan

Another strange decision....

Misbah gone

Greatest innings ever by a Pakistani?

Not every day you see something like this

The way he calculated the chase and the ability to pull off such a difficult plan makes this one of the top 3 ODI innings that i have ever seen.

Seems like a handy knock from Razzaq!! Well done to those wacky Paksters.

Razzaq scored 63 of the last 65 runs. Surely that must be up there with the record?

My little "dead wood" comment worked a treat. Played Razzaq.

SA may now think twice about overlooking their best bowler on tour so far Theron, for the hasbeen, probably never was Langeveldt. They also replaced two batsmen with a spin bowler and out of form allrounder. Remember Steyn is missing so they couldn't afford to be that complacent.

Geez Razzaq is a whinger. He always seem to take the opportunity to blame everyone but himself for not consistently fulfilling his potential over the years-

"I think my talent has not been properly utilised both in batting and bowling, especially, my batting spot has never been permanent," Razzaq said. "I don't think I have been utilised properly over the last five or six years as a batsman."

And didn't he 'retire' three years ago because he wasn't being encouraged enough and wasn't being coached well enough?

FFS, he's got a lot of talent (although his bowling is pretty much shot these days) but at the end of the day, it's down to HIM, not anyone else.

If a Pakster delivered some of the dross that he did at the end of this game you would not have been surprised to see a NotW video with somenone detailing when he will be bowling the long hops

Caught the end of the game and haven't seen SA field that badly for a long time.

Almost did their best to mess it up as well.

surely you are posting in the wrong thread because their fielding at the end of 2nd ODI was nearly flawless

Yep. Wrong thread.
