Story Pakistan's tour of India 2012 -/Predicto Winno/-

I/Y should not make any difference IMO.

Yes, right. By the way, I desperately need some graphic lessons from you (you did this or Akshay?), Prithvy.

Nice to see Binnu's story having these gfx. Love those. The text can be improved though but, really nice work. Bevel/emboss looks overdone.

Sure Fenyl, deriving graphics isn't a big deal if you have permission of the main developer and creativity. Also, the graphical artworks for scorecards has been worked by Akshai, and few parts of those works are derived to do these ones, that is why the text on it is sucking as well.

Actually the over stuffing of bevel/emboss is due to deriving the stuff from other original graphical artwork. I know what is the original stuff which is about to hit, it is awesome.

the real special to watch will be Wahab Riaz

Imran Farhat falls after giving a solid Start.

Imran Farhat in full swing.​

The guests show the complete dominance, as the openers blasted for a century opening stand here at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. Zaheer Khan has not bowled yet, Vinay Kumar was targeted, but Imran Farhat simply did the job what Pakistanis wanted him to do. Vettori trapped him in front of wickets, when he was at his personal score of 80 in just 62 deliveries. Hafeez has been comparatively slow. Mohammad Hafeez is now batting four short of his half century, facing 58 deliveries.

Daniel Vettori celebrates as the danger man Imran Farhat fell in his trap.​

Royal Challengers Bangalore have had something what they didn't want to have. They tried their best to get the break through, mostly Imran Farhat, so that they can relax a bit. Vinay Kumar has been hit for 38 runs in his four overs, he has been the costliest of all. Vettori somehow managed to get the much needed breakthrough, and as they have got the danger man, they will really feel good. Zaheer Khan has not yet bowled, which means Pakistanis await a good challenge towards the end of their innings in form of Zaheer Khan.

End of 20 overs:
Pakistan 100-1
Mohammad Hafeez 46* (58)
Umar Akmal 0*(0)
Daniel Vettori 3-0-17-1
Vinay Kumar 4-0-38-0

Didn't expected Farhat to score that much. Hafeez looks settled for a big score here and its and interesting decision to send Umar Akmal at 3. What is the XI for the both the teams? Also, writing needs to be improved. You have (by mistake) mentioned phrases twice like "Zaheer has not bowled yet" and Vettori getting the breakthrough.

All the best.

Imran Farhat is wearing old kit .

There is no particular XI for these teams, although the captains have said that they will play with XI players each, they haven't disclosed yet.

Imran Farhat is wearing old kit .

Its the kit what Pakistan endorsed in ICC U-19 World Cup, 2008.

A big LOL, Pakistan is touring India for 3 ODi's.

Seems like BCCI and PCB are reading my story.

Unsung Umar Akmal Takes Pakistan to 380.


Score at Previous Update:
End of 20 overs:
Pakistan 100-1
Mohammad Hafeez 46* (58)
Umar Akmal 0*(0)
Daniel Vettori 3-0-17-1
Vinay Kumar 4-0-38-0

Umar Akmal celebrates a 44 ball Hundred.​

As soon as Umar Akmal replaced Imran Farhat at BEML End, Misbah ul Haq had to replace Mohammad Hafeez because he fell to Vinay Kumar in the very first ball after the first update. Umar Akmal wasn't given much of strike, as Misbah took the strike for almost 6 consecutive overs for unknown reasons. Misbah did fair amount of tuk tuk, but also scored numerous 2s, without any specific reasons. They took risky 2s, with Umar Akmal facing just 2 balls with him completing almost 50 minutes at the center.

Misbah-ul-Haq and Umar Akmal added 78 runs to their partnership.​

After Misbah ul Haq celebrated his half century and crossed 65 run mark at 32nd over, Dirk Nannes got him clean bowled. And surprisingly, Umar Akmal was just at 4 runs off 6 balls, when Misbah got out. Then Younis Khan came in, but Umar Akmal had something else in his mind. Younis kept on playing sensible cricket, but Umar Akmal blasted off, like an inning of life time. He scored boundaries over all parts of the ground, hit five huge sixes, and 15 classy boundaries, which made him reach the hundred run mark in the last ball of 49th over. Akmal didn't take much of strike too, whenever he got chance, he blasted.

Gayle was hammered for 28 runs in a single over, with the ball by ball runs of the over being 4-4-4-6-4-6. Nothing went in RCB's favor, which kept crowd almost silent. They were good enough to give Akmal a standing ovation, when he got to that mark of 102 in just 44 balls. Almost all RCB bowlers had tough time on field, as Nannes went for a huge figure of 82 runs with a wicket to his name, Vinay Kumar conceded 69 with a wicket. Zaheer Khan was not given his full quota of overs, he just bowled 4 overs, got hammered at an average of 7.5 runs an over without any scalp. Sreenath Aravind also was under the category of people under special treatment, as he was given just 4 overs too, where he conceded 26 runs. Gayle got his figures spoiled in the 49th over, when Umar Akmal scored 28 runs of his over as he ended up conceding 77 runs in the 9 overs he bowled. Vettori went for 66 runs with a wicket to his name and Dilshan was given the role of change bowler and he was badly hammered for 27 runs in the three overs he was given.

Royal Challengers Bangalore need 381 runs to win from 50 Overs.
