Cricinfo:

An excellent final over from Tanvir does the job, and rewards the Pakistani batsmen who put on a good show today, especially when you consider how frail their batting appeared just a couple of weeks back. South Africa seemingly lost their way halfway through this chase, and despite some late-hitting heroics from JP Duminy, the gap was just wide enough for the tourists to take the match. Produced a match that I'm sure the Cape Town faithful will be pleased to have witnessed, which is a welcome change from the rather one-sided contests these teams have offered up in the recent past.

Junaid did his best to ruin this for Pakistan. Tanvir finally used his kukri size brain.

Re: Procession of Pakistan Team: Pak vs SA 2nd T20I - 11/22/2013

Namaz-e-janaza has been delayed due to unforeseen circumstances, few dead players came alive today :D

Positives to take from this game is Nasir seemed to be recovering lost form, Umar Akmal played well and the best of all is Bilawal Bhatti who bowled really well in 2nd T20I on foreign soil where likes of Steyn, Morkel, Parnell were sent to cleaners by Pakistani batsmen!

Well the procession has been postponed till Sunday atleast

Re: Procession of Pakistan Team: Pak vs SA 2nd T20I - 11/22/2013

I don't agree with the MoM. It should have been Umar Akmal

Afridi (13 runs in 14 balls) almost ruined it with the bat. Otherwise 190+ was on
Junaid (19 runs in penultimate over) almost ruined it with the ball

Re: Procession of Pakistan Team: Pak vs SA 2nd T20I - 11/22/2013

Afridi WAS a great entertainer with the bat but any one who has seen his batting in last four overs, ll strongly request him to come on No. 9 to bat. No doubt he is a source of energy in team and sometime can do the trick with ball like he did in this match but after looking his horribly batting in last 4 fours, he should withdraw himself as an all rounder/batsman.

End of over 17 (7 runs) Pakistan 152/3 (RR: 8.94)

[TABLE=“class: commsTable”]

17.1
Morkel to Shahid Afridi, no run, goes for the almighty heave, and comes up with a whole lot of air. Poor batting from Afridi

17.2
Morkel to Shahid Afridi, no run, another length ball, and again he goes to the leg side and tries to pummel it out of the ground. No dice

17.3
Morkel to Shahid Afridi, 1 wide, full and wide outside off, Afridi is on his front foot to play the flay through covers, but he can’t reach it

17.3
Morkel to Shahid Afridi, no run, fullish length ball and it could have been slammed through the off side, but Afridi has not gauged the line of that well enough as he goes for another airy drive

17.4
Morkel to Shahid Afridi, 1 run, this time it is a full toss and he slaps it away to deep point as the bat face turns on impact

17.5
Morkel to Umar Akmal, 1 run, digs it in again, slower bouncer, as Akmal stays on his back foot and dabs it to point

Mid off comes up

shen: “Afridi ??? Why not Sohaib Maqsood for crying out loud. Afridi is not going to hit, he is out of form, and will try to score off singles to stay at the crease… Oh Pakistan what did you do…”

17.6
Morkel to Shahid Afridi, no run, and another appalling play and miss from Afridi. He had moved outside leg and this was short just outside the off stump. Had he stayed still, it would have been an easy put away

[TABLE=“class: commsTable”]

18.4
Parnell to Shahid Afridi, 1 leg bye, free hit and it yields only a leg bye as Parnell bowls a bouncer off the back of his hand. Afridi was through his pull shot an age too early and gets it on the forearm as it dribbles away on the off side

18.6
Parnell to Shahid Afridi, 1 wide, his front foot was making way for another wild slog, but this one was just too high

18.6
Parnell to Shahid Afridi, 1 run, short and at the body, no room for him to work with and Afridi in such woeful form gets a top edge. Thankfully for him (or is it?) it lobs past the bowler and doesn’t travel far enough for mid-off to get under it

[TABLE=“class: commsTable”]

19.1
Steyn to Shahid Afridi, no run, 138 kph. another wild slot, another play and miss another length ball not taken advantage of as Umar screams for the other end for Afridi to get a single

19.2
Steyn to Shahid Afridi, FOUR, 139 kph, as awkward as ever Afridi was making room outside leg, Steyn followed him with a fullish ball which takes the inside edge, sneaks through his legs and runs away for four

19.3
Steyn to Shahid Afridi, 1 run, this time he gets an outside edge while staying firmly leg side of the shortish ball as he looks to cut it

19.5
Steyn to Shahid Afridi, no run, oh, was that wide? No says the umpire as Afrid was moving outside leg. It was a fulish ball just inside the wide line

19.6
Steyn to Shahid Afridi, FOUR, Steyn is filthy with himself as Afridi manages the end the innings with a streaky boundary. It was shortish and angled in at the batsman, who goes for a thoroughly unconvincing pull shot, which comes out a top edge and runs away

cricinfo …

Matthew: “Afridi disrupted Akmal’s momentum and rhythm there. He needs to give up his pretence of being a batsman and concentrate on his bowling.”

Ali Mirza: “Shahid Afridi with Misbahian batting stats in a twenty20. Never thought I would see such a day.”

Hafeez was caught at mid-of, trying to hit Steyn over the top and that slowed Pakistan down. They promoted Shahid Afridi up the order in the hope of finishing strongly but he was horribly out of touch. He played and missed at most of the next over before handing back to Akmal. While Afridi was a liability to Pakistan at the end, and they managed just 31 runs in the last four overs, he made up for it with the ball.

Telling you honestly, I felt really sorry for this gr8 entertainer that how he missed and played the shot. He was batting like a No. 11 batsman.

Anyway congrats Pakistani Team and Viewers :jhanda:

^ afridi should be included in blind cricket team , the way he was batting

Re: Procession of Pakistan Team: Pak vs SA 2nd T20I - 11/22/2013

It was a real sorry batting time for afridi. He may hit a few in a few of coming matches. It is not good for him as well. With every ball he missed , he was digging a deeper hole for him.
