Asia Cup 2010

[ZexyZahid]

There is uncertainty about Sehwag's fitness. If he is still injured, he can be replaced till the start of the 6th ODI, which happens to be on 22 June 2010 at 09:00 GMT.

If Sehwag is injured, replace him Mathews. Quite a surpise that he will be my captain, because I actually dropped him, because he underperformed in previous series.

What is Pakistan doing?

'Pakistan have made four changes, resting Salman Butt, Shoaib Malik, Mohammad Aamer and Saeed Ajmal.': Pak 17/0 (1.4 ov, Imran Farhat 6*, Shahzaib Hasan 10*, Shafiul Islam 0/6) | Live Scorecard | Cricinfo.com

Butt and Ajmal are in my team.

 

[pavanbharadwaj]

Then replace Sehwag for me as well with Kohli.

 

[Varun]

Damn! None of reserve batsmen is Indian or Sri Lankan.

 

[Gurjot95]

Replace mine with Raina.

 

[ZexyZahid]

I just noticed that Shahid Afridi again scored a century. This time he scored 124 runs from 60 balls and also took a wicket.

This is a bit too much for me. I am guessing that someone with Afridi as captain will be leading after the next update.

 

[Haarithan]

Replace sehwag with gambhir for me mate

 

[Abhas]

If he doesn't play, please Replace Sehwag with Gambhir.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Gambhir has at the moment more points then Sehwag, so that gives you actually an advantage.

Sehwag is now definitely out of the Asia Cup.

[Abhas]

Yeah, sad beacuse he missed the T20 WC as well

 

[ZexyZahid]

I am sure Sri Lanka and India will rest some players tomorrow, but I don't know which ones. I've got no problem if they rest Gambhir, Raina, Dhoni, Harbhajan Singh, Praveen Kumar or Zaheer Khan.

From Sri Lanka I think they will rest Malinga. It's no problem provided he will make it up in the final.

Update after the 5th ODI: 5th Match: Bangladesh v Pakistan at Dambulla, Jun 21, 2010 | Cricket Scorecard | Cricinfo.com

I didn't expect this at all. Anyway four people of the top 6 have Afridi as captain. I expect them to drop after the two ODI's, where only Sri Lanka and India will play.

Bad thing for me that Butt and Ajmal didn't play. I am pretty sure that Butt would have scored a lot of runs (I believe he has an ODI average of 97 against Bangladesh) and Ajmal would have taken some wickets. But Pakistan chose to give some youngsters a chance.

[Dare]

Can I get Sehwag replaced if its not too late.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Actually you're too late now. The deadline was set before the start of the 5th ODI.

And can you change my captain Sehwag into Mathews? Also for the other people, who requested before the deadline. Thanks.

 

[Akash00]

I am clearly out of this since I forgot to replace my captain Sehwag. But who cares, my reserve is Tamim.

 

[ZexyZahid]

This is the result after replacing Sehwag with the reserve players:

I've got now 6 players left in my team and they're all Sri Lankan players. Four of them played in the 6th ODI.
