Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Wednesday March 22-Colombo

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

thats a gr8 idea,

tendu can once again go for ONE run
and Segu can make a big total of EIGHT runs

this way Pakistan will endup with 8/2, considering the "poor" performance of Pakistan, its a good start.

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

well i guess now every younis khan fan will be happy that younis batted at 1-down position n scored 4 very important runs :D
IMO,akmal is fine in lower order,just imagine if we had afridi in his position :D

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

lol - Younis scoring 4! - thats his new high :rotfl:

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

now now :nono: dont make fun of the greatest 1-down batsman of all times :nono:

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

I am praising his ahem accomplishments and his leadership skills cough cough :)

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

I thought the match is on 22nd March

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

according to geo's correspondant in colombo,malik n farhat might open n afridi or younis will be 1 down.but 1 thing is for sure salman wont play

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

I like this combo. Malik opening and younis coming one down. No harm in trying an innovation.

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo


agar aap ka bas chalay to poori Pakistani team bagair bat ke batting kare :p

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

:smack: this is becoming like an experimental tour :grumpy:

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

Well, I am in agreeance with Imran Farhat getting selected, though. Albeit he has a wild habit of chasing the ball miles outside off-stump, he is at least a better prospect as opposed to Salman Butt in the current scheme of things.

As far as Afridi one-down, let him play lower-down the order, alongwith Razzaq and Akmal, which will translate into a potential strong batting-lineup. I will stick with Imran Khan's theory of sending Younis Khan at #3, regardless of his previous statistics and batting averages. Send in Younis at #3, Inzamam at #4 and Yousuf at #5, followed by the regular pinch-hitters. An ideal batting line-up, in my opinion.

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

^^ :hoonh: what about the openers? salman baby and farhat baba will play the musical chairs game and who will there partner in crime :smiley:

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo


agreement, or simply "I agree".

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

At least exclude Salman for the time being, and give a couple of chances to Farhat, and see how he shapes up for the England tour.

As far as their partner in crime…Danish Kaneria blows anything that starts with Shahid and ends in Afridi.

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

wakey wakey, the match is not on tuesday 21, but rather on wednesday 22....

inzi said they'd make one batting change, i think salman will make way for farhat....

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

well I would say carry on with Salman Butt and add Imran Farhat if you want to give him a chance and Inzi should rest.

No Afridi plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz @ opening, with Razzy coming at 6th, Afridi at 7th and Kami at 8th creates a good buffer b/w Razzy and Kami. coz we cant trust Afridi with a sensible innings.

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

why dont they let afridi open with imran farhat,they dont stick with the same opening pair for more than 1 game :smack:

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

Coz Afridi is 1 game wonder, and right now his luck with bat is more like lara’s or Tendulkar’s luck in test match :smiley:

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

I mean, why? Inzamam is fit and healthy, can run, can bat, and can throw. Let's not turn our eyes somewhere else. Faisal Iqbal is a big no-no.

On another note, are you in agreement with Afridi lower down the order, Acrobi bhai? (I was completely lost in all those "z's" you had :p)

Re: Pakistan vs Srilanka- 3rd ODI Tuesday March 21-Colombo

I am in 100% agreement, I edited those zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz in proper way now :p
