10th Match - Pakistan v West Indies

[Niall]

Heh, the DJ playing the "Batman" theme when Akmal asks for a new bat.

And is now upping his awesome factor even more with Ghostbusters.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Ah no.

 

[Spark]

horrid

 

[Gnske]

Surprised he didn't drop it

 

[Spark]

how in god's name did the commentator think that was out?

 

[Gnske]

I wonder what advice Afridi gave to Akmal for that shot

 

[OverratedSanity]

how in god's name did the commentator think that was out?

Yeah. Wilkins

 

[Zinzan]

Oh Umar, inevitable brain-fart to end a promising innings. So disappointing.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Why do people bowl anything other than low full tosses to Afridi?

 

[Gnske]

Classic Afridi

 

[SkyBlue]

The fixing kings strike again !!

 

[viriya]

Two mismatches in a row now.. Ind vs SA hopefully doesn't disappoint.

 

[SkyBlue]

So where does this put Ireland's win over Windies in the grand scheme of things ?

Ireland-Zimbabwe becomes a really crucial game now.A win over Zimbabwe and it puts Ireland in the driving seat to qualify for the quarters.And South Africa are gonna hammer Pakistan anyway.

I hope they can seize the opportunity and this is perhaps the biggest push they can get in their quest to become a full-member.

 

[Burgey]

I reckon Pakistan-England would be a scoreless draw

 

[anil1405]

Wonder why the WI management decided to drop Bravo and Pollard but not Gayle?

 

[anil1405]

WI should open with Simmons. Doesn't matter whom they drop/drop down the order.

 

[Prince EWS]

Wonder why the WI management decided to drop Bravo and Pollard but not Gayle?

Bravo instigated the player strike. His dumping wasn't performance-related, regardless of the official line.

I think Pollard's dropping was at least partly performance related though, and I think he was dropped while Gayle was spared because they had more depth in his area than Gayle's.

 

[Crazy Sam]

Weird seeing a score of 310 with a top score in the innings of just 51.

 

[Niall]

Not a massive fan of Gayle myself these days, however this is bloody disgraceful of Dave Cameron who is in charge of the WICB.

I am glad India got its win over Pakistan early, giving Indian fans a few days of joy before the Ireland-WI and WI-Pakistan games put things in perspective.
