Pakistan started as if they were the user playing with original AI on Medium mode. . And by the end of 10th over have reached around 98. But at the same time they have lost 5 wickets to stupid run-outs. A few pics:

Farhat goes first:


Hameed Follows:

Mallik is the third to run himself out:

Razzaq falls fourth:


Meanwhile Afridi is enjoying his stay at the crease. He square drives Bhajji who has been introduced very early to stop the deluge of runs.

Afridi goes for 31.

Inzy and Youhana played wonderful knocks...they alongwith some really bad bowling from Irfan Pathan saw Pakistan post a monumental 15 over score...

Inzy meanwhile reached his 50 and it was a beautifull made one at that...

Youhana played some brilliant strokes too...this paddle sweep(how does the user play it?) was extra special:

 

[sachinisgod]

But somehow the run-out bug got the better of Youhana too...he went on 41 when he blindly called after playing a beautiful Offdrive in the hands of Dravid...


Then Tendulkar struck in the same over...Inzy didn't expect the ball to turn so much and lost the middle stump to the mistake

Then the come and go procession started...all the three wickets to fall after that were run-out too...9 runouts and one bowled(Inzy at that )...here are the screens:

Naved-ul-hasan goes


Moin goes

 

[sachinisgod]

the 10th wicket too was a runout...


Pakistan's scoreboard would have looked much better if they had chosen a few more overs to bat and a few other styles of getting out:

Pakistan's Battingcard looks much better coz there's no indication of how the wickets fell...though they would have loved to bat the rest of the 13 odd overs...

Indian bowling card looks like a picture of late resurgence - after the initial mauling that the pacemen got the spinners got a bit of control on the proceedings and this shows in their respective figures...donno where the pacemen will be hiding from the skipper though?

 

[sachinisgod]

Inzy's wagonwheel did present a good picture...

The Inzy-Youhana partnership was the best thing that happened in this innings...it was a joy to behold two elegant batsmen bat like that:

From this match onwards I am playing with Tutsi 7.4A patch...this innings has been played using it too...
