*Official* Pakistan v South Africa in Dubai

[kingkallis]

A tired stroke from Younis after a well composed 73.

lol - what was Rehman trying to do there??

Is there any other pure fast bowler who bowls very quick worser than Steyn in ODIs? Akhtar, Lee, Waqar, Donald, Tait are(were) all guns in the format. Steyn just keeps getting owned in ODIs.

FFS Pakistan don't want to win.

Afridi picked Rehman cuz he was mad at Ajmal for taking a single.....LMAO!!!!

Interesting. I think the common thing among all those guys is that their stock ball is the inswinger (so they bowl the majority of the balls on the stumps) and they have good yorkers (as does Steyn). Steyn's stock ball is the outswinger and I suppose it is easier to get him away when there isn't much movement. Also no slips in ODIs.

Two backward points and a third man for Haider, what's up with that? Is he an impulsive cutter?

Go Razzaq

Lee's stock ball is the outswinger in ODIs surely?

Yep. Shane Bond too tended to swing the ball into the right-hander too.

It seems to work a little better in ODIs where the fields tend to be set for straight bowling. Obviously in tests you generally want your RF bowlers moving it away outside off.

Lee's stock ball was the one that went straight on... I guess?

Bond is a great example. ODI god, all round legend.

Pakistan's game to lose now..

Razzaq is not looking too good against Steyn here

EDIT: edge for four!

 

[Jono]

Lucky

 

[kingkallis]

Fortune favors the brave!!!

Edges here and there...

Steyn bowled pretty well today BTW, Hafeez and Afridi just played him well, and he dismissed Hafeez in the end.

 

[Jono]

Razzaq gone in almost the exact same way as the last match!
