Mohammad Yousuf

hows he doing! give me some facts ZZ

 

[ZexyZahid]

You didn't know Yousuf was back for Pakistan?

I don't know what his form is, because he hasn't been playing much cricket lately. In the current warm-up match he made only 14 runs.

ZexyZahid added 23 Minutes and 2 Seconds later...

I've included Kumar Sangakkara as wicketkeeper. According to this article it could be Sangakkara, Dilshan or Kaushal Silva as wicketkeeper. I've got a feeling it will be either Sangakkara or Kaushal Silva.

I have added Rangana Herath and Suraj Randiv.

 

[aussie1st]

Not a bad start for me, only missing Paranavitan. Got all the wicket taking bowlers

 

[SciD]

This will be another bottom finish for me.

 

[McLOVIN]

i was watching transformers 2 for the 2nd time, so i wasnt here when it started. now i have like 3 players who isnt even playing!!

 

[ZexyZahid]

This is pretty bad. I've got Kaneria in my team and he isn't even playing. I made last minute changes like dropping Manzoor, Akmal and Herath and including Yousuf, Sangakkara and Aamer.

At the moment it's better to Akmal then Sangakkara. With his fielding only he got 35 wickets. Ajmal got two wickets now.

ZexyZahid added 2 Minutes and 10 Seconds later...

Only Razzaq and Kaneria are not playing of your team.

 

[Akash00]

Ajmal took 2 wickets at last but my captain just made 28 runs.

Akash00 added 8 Minutes and 16 Seconds later...

Oh no! Salman Butt goes for a duck.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Butt got a first ball duck!

ZexyZahid added 38 Minutes and 7 Seconds later...

I just found out that Dilshan is actually the wicketkeeper.

 

[McLOVIN]

^ phew i dropped him 9 hrs before the game! thank god

 

[zub2005]

Hopefully Yousuf can get some runs. Captain Dilshan did ok.

 

[aussie1st]

Good thing I got rid of Butt Hopefully Rauf makes some runs. My captain wasn't great.
