[Simbazz]

Right, time to get boring and play this like I usually do, no sixes.

 

[King Pietersen]

12-2. Hayden gone as well. Opening the bowling with 2 spinners is doing the trick. Both openers in the shed.

 

[Simbazz]

Well Franklin is going well....

 

[King Pietersen]

He is Hussey gone.

 

[Simbazz]

But - Symo in

 

[King Pietersen]

Fleming comes in, and after bowling a wide, gets Ponting edging behind. This game's not over yet!

 

[Simbazz]

Dan, hurry up and lose, my dinner is here, i can smell it lol.

(Lunch to you posh boys?)

 

[King Pietersen]

69-5. Symonds gone for a duck. Need to keep taking quick wickets. Might have found a weakness as well

 

[Simbazz]

Bowling full? Bit cheating lol

I'm getting impatient!

Dan, game in an hour?

 

[King Pietersen]

Well played Si. Wasn't as straight forward as you'd have hoped, but it was still fairly convincing. If I could have got Clarke out I probably would have won, which is amazing considering how badly I batted. The plan of restricting you with the spinners at the end seemed to work as well. I enjoy bowling with spinners on the game actually, going in with 2 spinners is something I try to do every match we play, that's why I like playing with New Zealand, 2 great spinners.

Yeh, game in an hour sounds good.

Hello and Welcome to another exciting prospect of cricket on display today.

Dan's words ring true, he wants "revenge," for his mauling. I want to continue my reign as winner!

Dan as India, me as Pakistan.

Dan has lost the toss, and I'll have a bat for once, I'm feeling good about my prospects here.

Simbazz added 1 Minutes and 13 Seconds later...

Hafeez gone for 0, trying to send the ball out of the park. 0-1

Simbazz added 12 Minutes and 40 Seconds later...

Afridi going berzerk here, 96-5 (7 overs)

 

[King Pietersen]

What a field change. Stopped the shot down the ground, tried to loft it over the fairly vacant leg-side and picks out a fielder. Cheers for putting in a long tail as well

 

[Simbazz]

Its all in my plan Dan 116-7

Simbazz added 0 Minutes and 57 Seconds later...

118-8 - Naved - ul - Hasan not going to my plan.

Simbazz added 2 Minutes and 23 Seconds later...

I'm gunna want a re-match mind you Dan

 

[King Pietersen]

All out for 119. Zaheer takes 2 in 2 balls. Sourav Ganguly was the star with the ball though, destroyed the top order taking 4-16 off his 4 overs. Just a shame that the spinners got carted really, just wish I'd stopped that shot down the ground earlier. Time to knock off those 120 runs needed for victory then

Bahhh...6.30pm?
