Oh really!!

 

[Isura]

This is going to the last over. Pak will continue to take wickets as it gets tighter.

 

[Beleg]

younis pulls a gibbs.

how could he drop that? i mean, HOW?

 

[Hurricane]

I could have caught that.

 

[GGG]

come on just need 1 or 2 good overs

 

[Hurricane]

Get a move on lads - I can't stand the slow batting.

 

[Dissector]

I think NZ needs to take the batting powerplay now when they have two set batsmen. If they wait, the RRR will go up or a wicket could fall.

 

[Fusion]

Younis is going to get bashed by all and sundry back home. He had a bad CT with the bat and now this drop.

 

[Beleg]

pakistanis doing their best to make it more and more difficult for themselves with their fielding.

 

[GGG]

I would take the power play now and bring Mills in if lose a wicket.

 

[GGG]

This is not good enough from Elliot, hit out or get out already, still 6 wickets left.

 

[Hurricane]

Right now with Elliots batting I wish that catch had've been taken - he needs to play some shots or improvise.

 

[AaronK]

too many missed oppertunities there for Pakistan...but anyways.. the match still hungs on the balance here..

 

[Uppercut]

What a decision from Taufel. Great umpire.

 

[Dissector]

I think NZ is leaving it till too late. If they lose a wicket now it will put huge pressure on the new batsman. Even if they manage to scrape through I think their chase has been poorly planned.

 

[Uppercut]

They look very uhh... nervous.

 

[Beleg]

oki this is the first time i've seen aamir play properly.

and irrespective of the result and all that i've never been so impressed by a pakistani bowler since watching akhtar wreck the proteas in durbin all the way back in 97.

he might be the real deal.

 

[GGG]

grrr start power play already
