'Official' Semi Final 2 - Pakistan v India

[social]

The difference in the quality of spinners in the two sides is stark. Harbhajan-Yuvraj is to Ajmal-Afridi as chalk is to cheese.

It's unlikely that this Indian attack will take 10 wickets against a decent side so it's all about economy

In that respect, there doing a good job

 

[Agent Nationaux]

I haven't even seen Mr Pakistan on camera and chacha was only on once. Too much focus on the Indian crowd.

 

[duffer]

Zaheer's been a bit sloppy, short and wide outside off followed up by a half volley on the legs. Lucky to not have copped boundaries.

They sold around 2,000 tickets to Pakistanis and the officials said that they would group them together. They could have at least showed Mr Pakistan and Chacha cricket.

Kamran Akmal was the agent and he on-sold the tickets, took the money and bet it each way on no.5 in the fourth

Nice to see that absolutely 0 of the punts I took in the tipping comp have come off..

 

[Desire]

Can someone call them to say: take a wicket?

 

[duffer]

You're either trolling or finding something to complain about. I'm actually quite happy they've shown every ball of the match so far.

edit: bowled him, brain explosion time.

Misbah traditionally a slow starter as well - time to apply the super squeeze

 

[duffer]

Misbah and YK have hurt us before. This is the partnership we need to break early.

Just when I ask for a wicket... they take a wicket..

Should ask them often

****in Yuvraj

Never has such a crap bowler taken so many wickets in a competition

 

[Borges]

Woo, absolutely the wrong time to get out.

Don't think the run rate is the main bother for Pakistan - but they do need to have wickets in hand.

 

[Howe_zat]

This has been pretty poor from Pakistan to more or less give their wickets away. run-rate starting to spiral too, they're in a very shaky position now.

 

[irfan]

yeahh yuvraajjj wat a gun!!

 

[andyc]

Here we go....

 

[Adamc]

Ugh. Hate it when Yuvraj takes wickets.

 

[M0rphin3]

Meh. If you can't chase 260 then you don't deserve to be in finals.

Pathetic stuff from Younis

In the test arena, he's one of my favourite players but he's done a really poor job for his team today
