Second Round Group F - Australia, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh

[pasag]

165 runs to win for Pakistan and i don't think that is a good total on this pitch, Australia would have to bowl really well here.

Will be interesting. Pakistan's batting certainly isn't their strong point, but if Afridi and Younis get going you never know.

 

[Nate]

Awesome stuff by Pakistan. Hussey was tops for Australia. Will need regular wickets.

 

[Nate]

I like Hafeez, but his bowling action... meh.

 

[The_Bunny]

Would have liked a better total but we can defend this...
But soo glad to see Huss looking back in form, Had me worried there for a while but Class is permanent

 

[pup11]

I think almost every off-spinner in Pakistan tries to copy Saqlain's action.

 

[Nate]

C`mon Lee. Bend that elbow son.

 

[pup11]

C'mon Aussies need to keep it tight.

 

[pup11]

Now even the Pakistani openers are finding form, that is the last thing Australia wanted.

 

[pup11]

Is Ponting out their on the field? I hope his injury is nothing serious.

 

[Nate]

Crap me. Freaking plumb LBW turned down off Bracken.

Seen a replay of it, did not see an inside-edge. Gah.

 

[pup11]

Stu is the man, comes into the attack and picks up a wicket.

 

[pasag]

Two quick wickets from Clark, game back wide open.

 

[pup11]

Stu get the wicket of Hafeez, Hafeez c Clarke b Clark.

 

[Nate]

Stuey. Crappy shots by Pakistan, but fairplay to Clark after I bagged him out.

Hilfy for Johnson then.

 

[pasag]

Hmm, Foxtel deem it necessary to show an ad for the Paris Hilton tape, meanwhile Australia take a wicket. Dire.

 

[pup11]

Stu is really having a ball in this world Twenty20, he takes his 3rd wicket, Younis gone.
Where the hell is Afridi... ??

 

[Days of Grace]

Younis Khan dismissed by Salman Butt expertly. Butt blocks out nearly one over, Younis feels the pressure, first ball next over up in the air, out. Well done Butt, you dire excuse for a batsman.

Completely agreed, Get rid of this guy. He's not made for this format at all.

 

[andyc]

Pakistan really should try opening with Afridi as Chapelli suggested, he couldn't really go any worse than their current openers have been.

 

[Nate]

Don't know if opening with Afridi is the way to go, but somewhere more up the order, yeah.
