17th Match, Group E: New Zealand v Pakistan at Bridgetown

[Mike23]

Wonderful game of crikcet but the question that springs to mind is that why the hell did salman get off strike. He should have been on strike for the last ball.

Now, Afridi's wish will not be fulfilled because Pakistan won't be facing India since they are out of the tournament. It is very much unlikely that they will be in the semis.

Don't worry, India is also not going to reach semis.

^Gotta take everything on offer in those situations. If he haad stayed on strike and lost by 1 run, he'd be a fool.

Mate, it bounced on his fingers and into his hands, anyway wouldn't you rather such a fail like him be out?

He was out, the camera makes it look that way. Don;t be a sore loser. We lost because of some good bowling by NZ and an awful shot by Rehman and Afridi.

 

[King Pietersen]

Was out for mine. Bounced on McCullum's fingers, not on the floor.

Excellent game that one. Neither batting side performed well at all, but we saw some excellent bowling. Rehman was impressive, and then McCullum and Butler put in fine performances for NZ. Hopefully we'll see a few more runs in the next game though.

Man it clearly bounced infront of his fingers. That's what Nasser Hussain said as well.

Funny, you are calling McCllum cheater in front of Afridi :laugh

That was out if you look clearly.

Pakistan are losers!!!!
Can't even score 134, freaking losers

Man it clearly bounced infront of his fingers. That's what Nasser Hussain said as well.

He said, "It looks like it bounced in front of him......BUT for my money he got the fingers underneath it."

Then he went about saying how sometimes it looks like it bounces but it actually hasn't.

Watched the game today (dont know why, the prospect of Pakistan being close to elimination was very tempting to follow Also wanted them to be eliminated since I know India most likely wont make it too). But Salman Butt played a great innings and took them so close to the win, and probably he deserved the win for his team. But still, NZ held their nerves beautifully and clinched it. Razzaq played a crap shot. Had he stayed for a few more balls, Pakistan would have cantered to the win easily. Wont blame Salman Butt's single in the final over because he was missing the short balls and also a single meant Pak needed 2 off 1 ball and if Rehman got a single off the last ball, it would be the Super Over where Pakistan can fancy their chances more. But he didnt expect Rehman to hole out to the fielder like that.

Great game!

Im not comparing him with Afridi. There should be sportsman spirit at least. Let alone Afridi man, he really is such a fail.

Pakistan have been fail this year both in Sports and politics
