*Official* Match 40 - Australia v Pakistan

[Nate]

They could wrap this up so fast with some Gulage.

Credit to Pakistan's bowlers? Riaz aside, they've been bang-on and even he had his good patches. They've been tight in the field too.

 

[longtom]

What score could be realistically chased on that pitch? Only have cricbuzz to go by.

And what is the average successfully chased score in Colombo? If I remember correctly it isn't all that high.

Anyone saying Tait would destroy Pakistan are obviously not taking into account the fact that its his 3rd game in the matter of 6-7 days and his form too hasn't been too flash.

Can't help but think the extra pace of the Aussie quicks is gonna help the Pakistani batsmen on this deck and unless there is some swing under lights we are pretty much screwed.

His second spell was brutal tbf.

Don't know what's wrong with Krezja, he is a much better cricketer than what he has shown so far in this worldcup.

India is screwed for QF.

Shot! At last.

 

[Burgey]

Wow. Lovely shot.

 

[Sylvester]

Smith! First boundary in God knows when.

 

[Spark]

Is it just me or have Pakistan taken their foot off the pedal?

 

[Burgey]

Well bowled Gul.

 

[Spark]

Or not. Not sure what Krezja was doing there, especially with only 4 balls til the PP.

 

[pup11]

I know Krezja is only a lower order bat, but seriously WTF was that...? He surely should have known a yorker was on its way but his feet and bat were all over the place.

 

[longtom]

Well bowled Gul.

He is a class act - right up there!

Hauritz is so much better than any of the direct competition that it's almost embarassing

 

[Shri]

I don't actually think I like Australian Cricket anymore. NSW ftw.

Not much difference in the team then anyway.

 

[blahblahblah]

just back from 5 hours of non stop fifa 11

wow aussies giving good fight

 

[Tendulkar_200*]

200 for Australia might be enough. The pacers for Australia might get early breakthoughs.

 

[blahblahblah]

is it a bowling pitch ?

 

[blahblahblah]

ya 200 should be more than enough
