44.6

Malinga to Misbah-ul-Haq, OUT, this time Misbah cannot resist! Holed out at deep square leg! Malinga, you beauty! Two wickets in the over, but neither off particularly good balls. But still he has changed the game! It was a length ball and he swung with all his might, but it sunk right down the throat of the fielder

Misbah-ul-Haq c Senanayake b Malinga 73 (84b 4x4 2x6) SR: 86.90

44.5

Malinga to Bilawal Bhatti, 1 run, good length ball outside off, defended to point

44.5

Malinga to Bilawal Bhatti, 1 wide, slides this length ball down leg. Bonus runs for Pakistan

Bilawal Bhatti strides out to bat with his team fighting to complete a difficult chase

44.4

Malinga to Shahid Afridi, OUT, slapped straight to short cover and Chandimal has held on, despite possible injury to his hand. Ample room outside off and the shot was on, but he cannot find the gap. Chandimal is forced off his feet by the power in this shot and though it went straight at him at stomach-height, this is a blinder!

Shahid Afridi c Chandimal b Malinga 4 (7b 0x4 0x6) SR: 57.14

44.3

Malinga to Shahid Afridi, no run, back of a length on off stump, Afridi respects it with a back-foot defensive

44.2

Malinga to Misbah-ul-Haq, 1 run, yorker on leg stump, but Misbah is in such good form that he clips it to long leg

44.1

Malinga to Shahid Afridi, 1 run, good length ball on leg stump, Afridi pushes it down to long-on

Re: Pakistan V SL

Can Gul and Bhatti be shown the script of U-19 semifinal with 7 down?

Re: Pakistan V SL

game over

Re: Pakistan V SL

Its over. Another batting collapse, just like Mohali and other venues. Thanks Afridi and top order!!

Re: Pakistan V SL

wow 4 by ajmal

Re: Pakistan V SL

wohoo one more

Re: Pakistan V SL

Wait, we still have some pulse. Can Afridi be shown video of Bhatti and Ajmal batting like 100+ times?

Re: Pakistan V SL

Ajmal nay aaj kya khaya hai

Re: Pakistan V SL

and gone

Re: Pakistan V SL

15 runs 9 balls

Re: Pakistan V SL

13 off 8

and out :(

Re: Pakistan V SL

SL win by 12 runs

Re: Pakistan V SL

Thats it! Once again we effed up in chasing a big target.
But looking at the bowling card, can someone explain why Gul was not let bowl 10 overs? The two overs could hv made the difference.

7.3 to MDKJ Perera, he has his man this time. Edged through to the keeper! The cross-seamer generates a bit more bounce and the angle away from him is just perfect. And that is enough to snare the outside edge of Kusal’s poking bat. It was in that length where he was still wondering whether to go forward or back even as he nicks off. Easy catch to Akmal behind the stumps 28/1
31.5 to Sangakkara, short ball and pulled straight to midwicket. Gul strikes totally against the run of play. It was short and it had enough width to merit an aggressive stroke, but his balance was more on the front foot which foils his timing 189/2

Re: Pakistan V SL

stumps chor kar khel raha tha

Re: Pakistan V SL

Malinga's five-for derailed Pakistan's run chase

296 was a stiff target but Pakistan looked to be in charge when Umar Akmal and Misbah were batting together (242/4).

284 was still a decent batting effort by Pakistan.
