Oh dear, Dilshan hits two consecutive sixes.

by doremi Mon 17 Sep 2007, 19:58

Another six. Dropped and parried over the boundary by Younus.

by filosofee Mon 17 Sep 2007, 19:59

Dratt, 150 up. Dilshan on 38.

by filosofee Mon 17 Sep 2007, 19:59

Thankfully Khan takes Dilshan this time.

by doremi Mon 17 Sep 2007, 20:00

Great catch by Yunus this time.

Afridi has decent figures: 4-0-18-3

Why people are so surprised that sides collapse suddenly when chasing 10+ an over? :grat:

Even with the majority of wickets left to fall i'd back the side defending 10 an over with 10 overs left...

What's Gul, the oollu doing - not backing up?

by filosofee Mon 17 Sep 2007, 20:04

9th wicket down, Malinga caught by Khan at the boundary?

Not surprised, merely drawing comparisons.

Who'd a thunk it from Pakistan on 33-3

by filosofee Mon 17 Sep 2007, 20:06

Well done Pakistan, beat Lanka by 33 runs.

Yes, but when it's Lanka doing the chasing and Pakistan the defending, normally you wouldn't bet on the latter, not even me!

Bish doing the longest post-match yet in the tournament.

by filosofee Mon 17 Sep 2007, 20:15

The boys haven't long before their next match, against the Aussies, oh boy

At least we'll have the excuse of them fasting if Pakistan lose.

by filosofee Mon 17 Sep 2007, 20:24

Dilhara Fernando produced one of the outstanding new-ball spells of the
tournament, but magnificent half-centuries from Shoaib Malik, Pakistan captain, and Younis Khan propelled Pakistan to a formidable total of 189 for 6 under the lights at the Wanderers. Sanath Jayasuriya conceded a whopping 64 from his four overs - equalling the most expensive in Twenty20 internationals - while Gayan Wijekoon and Lasith Malinga also went for plenty, though Malinga had the consolation of three wickets.

Haha we played extremely well, Nazir has to be out next match the guy is a waste of space, top innings from Yk and Malik, well thats our one good game of the tournement out of the way, guess we are going to get thrashed by the Aussies tomorrow.

by SG Tue 18 Sep 2007, 04:49

Well played Pak. Extremely well played. I think they've enough firepower to test the Aussies today.

Should be the match of this tournament after Ind-Pak one.

by Anniyan Tue 18 Sep 2007, 08:38

Idiot Mahela had a brain meltdown! welldone to Pak anyway but Mahela should've batted first knowing that batting under floodlights on a chase is harder! prefer to chase bulshit! play with the conditions man! Nevermind, it is probably going to be early curatins anyway.

Yet earlier the same day you said Pakistan had no chance. Rolling Eyes

Just a shame that I didn't predict England could collapse that badly. Could've made a packet from about the 10th over.

Sh!thouse fist-f*cking.

You are, Danny. A bona fide legend. Good-looking, too. And hung like a donkey.

Pity you're a Pom . . .
