**Official** Asia Cup 2004 Thread

[Magrat Garlick]

Don't think anyone has pointed out that Friday is a historic day - it'll be Hong Kong's first one-day international ever. Oh, what a fantastic rot it's going to be...

 

[tooextracool]

they were a decent hong kong cricket sixes team though.....beat india once too when they needed 24 from the last 4 balls.

 

[dude]

guys i looked at the schedule from ARY are those times correct??

 

[rajat]

y isnt anyone suggesting that there may be a pak-srilanka final.

Pakistan is a team which cannot be writtenoff.

 

[dude]

pakistan does indeed have a real good team and have a very good chance of even winning the asia cup.

doesn't anyone think the ARY schedule on dish is messed up? do those times appear correct? and can anyone tell me the time difference between EST & CST? and did anyone notice only haf sessions are shown in matches played on the same day.

 

[Craig]

So you'd kick out the two best players Pakistan has ?

Well if they are not going to get on and play as a team then there is no use having a whole heap of talented players but can't play as a team.

It's a Pakistani Channel, Ch.621. Try it until the Cup end and Cancel it, if u like

There is also something interesting, since it's only 1 channel..it's confusing to know as to which game will they when there are 2

However, if you download the schedule from Ary website, it opens up in Word and shows the following, I am not sure the BOLD part is spell check or suggesting that it will show that game

it cant mean that they will show that game...cause nothing is in bold for the 17th...and I dont think they would leave that day out

 

[dude]

oh go to www.arydigitalusa.tv they have a more updated schedule on there when you click on programming info.

Hmm, 2 games in bold, and they're both India games - suggests to me that it's an Indian fan highlighting when his team is playing.

Pakistan Squad :

Imran Farhat, Yasir Hameed, Shoaib Malik, Yousuf Youhana, Inzamam-ul-Haq (capt), Abdul Razzaq, Moin Khan (wk), Younis Khan, Mohammad Sami, Shabbir Ahmed, Shoaib Akhtar, Imran Nazir, Danish Kaneria, Naved-ul-Hasan.

you have to wonder why asif kamal isnt in the side......he was quite brilliant in that test series against india.

Hmm... Asim? He is always going to be 2nd choice 'keeper while Moin Khan is around, and there is not really any room in a squad of fourteen for a reserve 'keeper. He might have a case as a specialist batsman though.

i think you have mistaken asif kamal for kamran akmal.....im referring to the left hander that averages 58 in tests or more memorably took a couple of injections due to injury before coming out and scoring an unbeaten 60 in that last test against india.

 

[NikhilN]

I was just checking what shows were gonna be on ary through my guide and it says they will show both matches...the bangvhonk will be on at 12 am our time and the guide says the india uae match will start at 4:30 am...then at 6 am it has india uae as another match...does anyone know when the matches will start?

The name is Asim Kamal.

 

[Sehwag309]

THE BOLD is indeed the games they will be broadcasting

and broadcating ONLY 1st session of the other games that day

In short, all India games will be shown in FULL, and ARY being a Pakistani channel will show half-match of Pak.

And frankly it doesn't matter, coz this is the 10-day forecast LINK

Yes, his name is Asim Kamal. There may well be an Asif Kamal, but he doesn't play cricket for Pakistan.

 

[dude]

i do see the dishnetwork(ARY) TV guide on my DVR receiver but what im really confused about are the timings, im a sri lankan living in chicago. the time difference is 12 hours. no match starts in SL at 12am or later, it ideally should be 10pm CST or 11pmEST?? day/night matches should start at 2.30amCST and 3.30EST.

Buddy, u read what I said...HERE figure it out

So where is the crime in doing that?
