West Indies v Pakistan, 1st ODI, Providence, 14 July, 2013

Well, this is what its all about. The great Shahid(bhai) will be playing

I wonder how many players will be fasting during this match. Players to watch out for are the following:

Shahid bhai
Samules

That's about it.

Recall number 48673 for Afridi? For an 18 year old, he's been dropped and recalled a lot.

Give Shahid bhai a break, he is learning.

They're playing more JAMODIs? It's like arranging an international football friendly during the latter stages of a World Cup!

WICB didn't want tests due to lack of revenue

Pakistan have only played 3 tests this year and won't play any until October.

Erm, WGAF???

Don't bother rikki-ing, Fromberg.

FWIW, play has been delayed by rain.

Amazing game, two threads even before a ball has been bowled!

Shahid bhai and Umar Akmal are in, Umar will keep the sticks

This stupid game. The feed I was watching the Ashes on switched over to this dross in the middle of Swann's over. Almost missed Jimmy's wicket. F*ck off Kemar Roach

Right. Finally the REAL cricket starts.

Some young lad by the name of Afridi is getting Pakistan back in the game with some audacious hitting.

Misbah's on fire, 36 off 103

Although the teenager came good with a 70 odd

This Alfridi kid has just taken 2 in 3 to leave the Windies absolutely shamming along at 41/5.

What a pointless f*cking series this is, though.

Holy shit!!! Afridi made 76 and took 7-12!!!!! FMD, that's some performance to send the Wackies to an easy win.

Shirley this would be the greatest allround performance ever in a JAMODI??

There's a thread further down t'page.

Ah, thanks Dan.

Oi, Fromberg, probably pointless, but can you merge this with PP's thread.

Choyers, Cheesehead.

Should've been Rikki'd but WReallyGAF? This match is the equivalent of eating a McDonald's burger off the pavement just after leaving a restaurant where you've had a porterhouse steak.

Aye Dan. I started this thread during the Lunch break in last night's classic with very much a "WGAF" view.

Wowzers - the youngster Afridi is finally coming good.

However, just checked the scorecard for the only ODI with better figures. What was Murali playing at? The man is a maggot. Surely he could have tossed an over up outside off stump? The slag couldn't resist the lure of cheap Zimbo wickets, the story of his career.

Has to go down as the greatest performance EVER in the history of ODI cricket....Shahid bhai take a bow...

Kudos to Afridi, brilliant effort
