Sri Lanka v Pakistan, 2nd T20, Hambantota, 3 June, 2012

Cracking stuff. Can't wait for the next one.

I'm gutted that this thread has not attracted any comments.

Is it over yet?

What?

JAMITT?

Where?

Very important match for Hafeez

Young Mohammed Sami gets another chance to show his potential.

Sami is still bowling at around 146 KPH+

I really hope he performs in this game and revives his career in at least limited overs cricket.

What a tremendous spell by M Sami today!

Shahid bhai will win the man of the match award due to his quick 50 and a fine spell how ever this match should be remembered for M Sami's pace

Sri Lanka be gash tonight? What's Shoaib Malik doing in the team, despite his okay effort?

Tidy effort by this young tyro Afridi. Is he any good? Does he have a future?

In T20 cricket Shoaib Malik is ok

He can at times get solid runs(like today) and his fielding is also top class.

I hope they don't pick him for the under 19 world cup because i want to see him in the T20 world cup.

...but really what a youngster! Its players like Afridi, Razzaq, Sami, Ajmal that really define Pakistan cricket, none of these guys are great cricketers(may be Ajmal is) but they are unique and have something magical about them. There was a time when the team was filled with 9 or 10 of such players and the team was the most exciting in the world.
