Pak 323/3........Goodnight.
I watched the last ten overs and what a treat that was. The incredible hitting by Inzi and Younis.
Inzi became the first Pakistani batsmen to cross 9000 runs in ODI's.
Well played Pakistan.
Talking about partnership: Current Partnership: 112 runs, 11.0 overs, RR: 10.18 :k: :k: :k:
i think that’s something we all would like to see more often especially against other opositions

Gotta agree ..... thanks to ARY-Free view time i could watch the last 15 overs but as our Mod said the last 10 were a treat to watch ...... much to the delight of the crowd ...... and something to see back in Pakistan "Overcrowded stadiums" .....
The difference in crowd attendance was amazing. During the test the stadium was nearly empty, today it was overflowing. What a change. Is the appeal of test cricket dying in Pakistan?

i won't judge that early Ehsan Bhai ..... let's wait for the Tests against SA ..... i think a top intl. team should attract more ppl into the stadiums ..... i guess PCB hopes pretty much the same ...

I was going to open a thread on that ehsan because I think test cricket hasn't been well supported for a couple of years now in Pakistan, and it didn't attract viewers in Sharjah either. Partly this is due to the lack of quality opposition but mostly just because people would rather save their money for the 1 dayers. There doesn't seem to be much effort to get people into the grounds either, like reducing ticket prices and offering cutomers a reason to come by the authorities.

You could be right but then there wasn't big crowds either when NZ last visited Pakistan and also as Xtreme said the crowds were disappointing against Australia in Sharjah last year.
I think a Pakistan/India test series would attract crowds.
A big challenge ahead for BD...see if they make 324 to surprise or upset Pakistan... :)

They'll be lucky to get 224.
Youhanna and Inzimam look much better players when they are playing aggressively. I think during the test matches only Hameed made any attempt to dominate what is a pretty ordinairy BD bowling line up.
BD 3/1
Ashraful LBW Gul.

0.5 Umar Gul to Mohammad Ashraful, OUT: good inswinger, went across, tries to play on the onside, misses the line of the ball, hit on pads in front of off stump, huge appeal for lbw, Tiffin raises his finger up
