5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

I use this forum to read posts and opinions about matches. One thing I noticed that who ever opens the thread never posts the time in all time zones like in USA , Pak,India, PST , CST to begin with(except the 4TH ODI ). Its only posted when somone requests for it.
Just my two cents.

Some comments by Pakistanis from elsewhere on the WWW :

>> Lawson always seems to have a notebook and writing something on it.. Cant he see the scoreboard and read it.

>> From laptop to notebook....this doesnt look good!

>> Looks like the PCB are running tight on funds. The only laptop they had was confiscated by the Jamaican Police. Unfortunately Lawson has to make do with a notebook for now. Maybe we should all chip in & fund for a new laptop for Geoff.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

>> Sophisticated cricket doesn't suit us (especially with the educational background our players have). They are more suited to aggressive cricket. Instilling method INSTEAD of aggression has become the dooming factor for us. It just doesn't suit us.

>> I think the bottom line is India is a better team and they won the match and the series. I dont think Pakistani team was intimidated by others. It is simple that the opposition we are playing against they are better then us.

>> all this nonsense about a better side..what a load of nonsense..before this series I would have said we were even...i still think we're pretty even even though the result says otherwise..what destroyed us is our attitude and the friendliness!!..all this bhai bhai crap!!...wheres the fire?? I used to love watching Pakistan because we always had the fire even when doing badly..but now were just a bunch of timid hamsters!!..led by a paper captain and his weak minded tactics!!...all this "lets learn english bs" abay give me boyz played well any day of the damn weak!!..that team i was proud of..this team are a bunch of wimps!!

>> It all started with Jeet Lo Dil...2004

^Nikka Kaka...do you have something against those living on the US Pacific Coast.

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

this just in..

Akhtar, Afridi, Younis, and Akmal out.

Hameed, Nazir, Alam, and Ahmed in.

everything is good except Afridi being left out. He is dropped from the test squad...so I'd like to see him play one last time before he flies home.

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

what happens if nazir scores 35 ball 50???? does he still get sent back to Pak?

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

Dhoni wins the toss and puts pakistan in. The dew factor being his major concern.

For Pak, Afridi and Yoyo out, instead Imran nazir in.

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

I don't get this. Why would Pakistan rest Younis Khan but not rest Kamran Akmal...One would think they would use this opportunity to take a look at Safaraz.

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

Younis is out, not Yoyo.

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

I thought Younis was Yoyo and Mohd Yousef Moyo...

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

And what is the point in resting Afridi when he will get all the rest he needs after the 5th ODI anyways.

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

My bad then...

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

Cricinfo makes the correction now :

Sarfaraz is indeed playing in this game, replacing Akmal.

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

Seriously? Im curious to see him play

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

Corrected Pakistan team :

1 Salman Butt, 2 Imran Nazir, 3 Yasir Hameed, 4 Mohammad Yousuf, 5 Shoaib Malik (capt), 6 Misbah-ul-Haq, 7 Sarfraz Ahmed (wk), 8 Fawad Alam, 9 Sohail Tanvir, 10 Rao Iftikhar Anjum, 11 Umar Gul.

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

FESTIVAL match is abt to begin

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

The debutant Praveen kumar is getting some swing off the pitch

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

Shoaib malik never bothered to tell Bishop about a completely different Pakistan side. All he talked was was Younis missing due to groin problem and Afridi.

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007

Exactly...I was wondering about it too.

Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007
