Story Australian Int Season - RETIREMENT

[duffarama]

Wow, 303 runs is a big target for the Pakos to chase. I don't they will get it mind you.

 

[MWaugh]

Yeah Tendulkar and Dravid were on fire late on in the innings. Kaneria was smacked along with Afridi.

Also a steady partnership between Dhoni and Sehwag is crucial one too, that set the base of this big score :onpc

well done India...

Solid Start From Openers - Pakistan 0/42



Pakistan openers Shahid Afridi and Salman Butt completed their first task of surviving the initial 10 overs as Pakistan reached 0/42. Both players are unbeaten on 20 runs and now must increase the run rate if they are to give themselves any hope of winning this crucial clash.

Pakistan Slipping Behind - Pakistan 0/84



Despite making their way to the 20 over mark without losing a wicket, Paksitan have found themselves behind the 8 ball with the score at 0/84. Currently only scoring at 4.2 per over, they find themselves needing to directly copy India, requiring a run rate of 7.3 runs per over. Salman Butt is the bright point for Pakistan, with 48 not out from 50 balls.

India Slightly Tighten Screws - Pakistan 2/145



The Indian bowling stocks have slightly tightened the screws on the Pakistan top order as the tourists lost 2 wickets to be 2/145 at the 30 over point. Salman Butt looked in hot form with 70 from 78 balls while Shahid Afridi finally found some runs with 52. However Pakistan now have to score at almost 8 runs per over to win the match, a figure that is growing larger with each over that passes. Pakistan now looking down the barrell of defeat and an early exit from the VB series.

Its A Huge Task Ahead - Pakistan 5/203



Pakistan must produce one of the great run chases if they are to give themselves any hope of qualifying for the VB series finals. The Pakistan lower order requires a near impossible 100 runs to win from 10 overs to claim the 2nd last match of the series. Younis Khan appears to hold the key for Pakistan with 29 not out, while young paceman Sreesanth claiming 3/42 to crush Pakistani hopes of victory.
