This is how you plan and chase a target ....Team Misbah

I wanted to type a similar reply.

This is how you play and win a match.

Brilliant. I hope Sri Lanka wins the Trophy. If not them then Windies.

Mubarak ho @ aliyah khan :D

Re: ICC Champions Trophy Group A: England v Sri Lanka at The Oval, Thur Jun 13, 2013

With this SL win...this group might be tight and open...

Re: ICC Champions Trophy Group A: England v Sri Lanka at The Oval, Thur Jun 13, 2013

To be honest we simply don't have batsmen of the quality of Sanga or the same batting depth in our side

can't go into a competition (and expect to win) with just two batsmen (Misbah, Jamshed). The rest of Pak batting sucks

Re: ICC Champions Trophy Group A: England v Sri Lanka at The Oval, Thur Jun 13, 2013

Windies cant win they will probably be knocked out By Saffers

Re: ICC Champions Trophy Group A: England v Sri Lanka at The Oval, Thur Jun 13, 2013

Yes we dont have but atleast we can plan our target ......Look at Kula how he chased the target down with help of Sanga and look at our player with 200 ODIs played cant play part time bowlers like JP Duminy

Re: ICC Champions Trophy Group A: England v Sri Lanka at The Oval, Thur Jun 13, 2013

The biggest cheer goes to me for opening the thread!

Re: ICC Champions Trophy Group A: England v Sri Lanka at The Oval, Thur Jun 13, 2013

Forget 293, if the current Pak batting was asked to chase 200+ 5 times against any of the test playing nations, I reckon they would fail 80% of the time (i.e. win only once). Such pathetic is our batting

Re: ICC Champions Trophy Group A: England v Sri Lanka at The Oval, Thur Jun 13, 2013

what an inning by Sanga and Nuwan...dhuaaN-dhaar dhunaaii kii firangiyoN kii! :)

Bhopara was excellent today with his 28 off the last over! :)

Re: ICC Champions Trophy Group A: England v Sri Lanka at The Oval, Thur Jun 13, 2013

HOLY MACARONI!!! Well played Sanga!!! My cousin must be jumping up and down in the stadium :cb:

Thank you :smiley:

:slflag:

Re: ICC Champions Trophy Group A: England v Sri Lanka at The Oval, Thur Jun 13, 2013

I think...current Pakistan squad's batsmen can chase a good total too...but they go to the crease with not a right-mind or the think tank back in the dressing room misguides them...

Re: ICC Champions Trophy Group A: England v Sri Lanka at The Oval, Thur Jun 13, 2013

As a Paki fan you don't even know how it feels when your team chases 290+ in alien and testing conditions against a super bowling attack...coz it did not happen for us since fuc...kin 1850 i guess!!! really special ODI innings by Sanga!

Re: ICC Champions Trophy Group A: England v Sri Lanka at The Oval, Thur Jun 13, 2013

With Sanga, Tilak and Mahela in team, any target is within reach. And plenty of allrounders help as well.

Group A is in interesting position.
