Skipper Shahid Afridi, who has a firm belief in the ability of Hafeez, also known as the professor, as he won the ball to him after the first course. Hafeez never looked back rookie bowling ball as he caught Devon Smith and Darren Bravo in the same course across the counter.

India lose series against south africa

Indian batsmen didn’t play up to their potential in the crucial decider against south africa.The indian batsmen had no answers against the pace attack of the south africans and continued to play poor shots eventually which ended up in a score of 119-8 .

Yusuf pathan and zaheer khan held hands together and stringed up a partner ship of hundred runs.Yusuf Pathan threatened to single-handedly pull off a sensational victory with a brutal 70-ball 105 which included eight sixes and eight fours he didn’t have any half measures and plundered the south african bowling attack.

The sad thing over here is no batsmen really wanted to indulge in a partnership everyone were skying the ball which eventually resulted in them returning back to the pavillion ,had one batsmen stayed there along with yusuf pathan it would have been a different story with india lifting the cup.But no one other batsman had the patience and yusuf was battling it alone in the middle and eventually got out when tyring to hit a huge one against morne morkel.

A challenging score but not an impossible one and i have no clue why indian batsmen chose only two seamers in their team out of which zaheer scored 24 runs ,which is the third highest score in the team after yusuf and parthiv patel 🙂

But the boos quickly turned into cheers when Watson reached his fifth century in a day, 110 balls, before falling back leg backward over the rope on the side of Michael Yardy to ease tensions house.
Australia took the PowerPlay early in the 39th over, but Clarke had lasted only five balls before Tim Bresnan miscuing more Shahzad starting mid-ball 57 36.

And it reflects a greater abdication of the privileged citizens of Pakistan. Naturally, they are dismayed by the growing reputation of his country as a troublemaker in the world. But heroic exceptions, show little interest in trying to improve the place. Many tend to blame their problems on others, ideally America. Tax Dodge also cheerfully about 10% of GDP, Pakistan’s rate of tax collection is one of the lowest in the world. In cricket, as in life, the ruling class of Pakistan should recognize that the human problems of his country are largely their own responsibility. This would be a first step towards an end.

India vs New Zealand, 1st One Day International 2010

Team india played one of the worst cricket today that is ever possible. One of the top team in test cricket and one day cricket could have played some gutsy cricket,Losing doesn’t matter when you play real good cricket and still if you lose the match which is out of your hands.India got all out for 88 runs in just 29.3 overs.

The Nz’s really outplayed india today let it be batting even after losing a couple of quick wickets the kiwi’s managed to string a partnership between ross taylor and scott styris and they both made sure that the kiwis reached a challenging total of 288.

All of us would have felt very happy if indian players had played a fighting knock from their end as well but it was like everyone has given up long ago ,one after another all of them threw up their wickets and followed each other to the pavillion one of the worst cricketing displays by team india.Sad that these guys only perform in ipl…..
