7th Match - Afghanistan v Sri Lanka

[Zinzan]

It should be, but I wouldn't put it past the Lankans to fail to capitalise on such a start.

They're no strangers to rapid starts, only to be bowled out not batting the overs.

Just like this

 

[aussie tragic]

Never heard of Nabi until now, but what an over. This also gives him his best ever figures (was 4-30)

 

[Spark]

Feels like Afghanistan is the sort of team that really thrives on momentum too.

 

[morgieb]

Holy ****

 

[trundler]

ANOTHER CAUGHT BEHIND.

149-4. Hamid breathing fire.

 

[weldone]

Haha. sweepstakes anyone? lol

 

[Spark]

Oh my word

 

[Arachnodouche]

Best in the channel wicket of the tournament along with the CdG one from the other day.

 

[Spark]

I guess the good thing for SL is they already have 150 runs on the board?

ANOTHER CAUGHT BEHIND.

149-4. Hamid breathing fire.

149-5

 

[morgieb]

The Perera's batting together will be fun.

 

[trundler]

Worst SL side I've seen

Yeah true. Funnily enough I think they wouldn't want the two Perera's out there now, I don't rate their chances of batting sensibly.

 

[trundler]

149-5

Oh yeah. Got too excited.

 

[weldone]

Worst SL side I've seen

Surely. This side is as bad as some of their 1980s sides.

 

[StephenZA]

Poor Kusal, such a good player watching his side implode on the other side.

 

[mr_mister]

:-o

 

[trundler]

2 one dimensional hacks out there with half the innings left.

 

[Spark]

Afghanistan are so much fun to watch. It's all very ramshackle somehow but it works.

 

[trundler]

Surely. This side is as bad as some of their 1980s sides.

I wasn't around back then
