you had to remind me

 

[Kaleb]

South Africa will be lucky if they can settle on 220-230

 

[Kaleb]

Ok looks like this partnership between Miller and Duminy is gonna help South Africa out,they Might end up on 260/270 if they can keep this up

 

[Iceman]

India 22-0 from 5 overs against Pakistan.

urgh I cant anymore my stream just changed over to the Pakistan/India game hopefully this one is more entertaining

 

[Hound55]

Heh.

search: "South Africa vs Zimbabwe streaming"

Are you sure you did not mean "India vs Pakistan streaming"?

 

[Kaleb]

David Miller 106 runs (84 balls 6 sixes , 4 fours)

 

[Kaleb]

wow huge turn around by South Africa, now both Miller and JP get there centuries (for Americans that are trying to follow that's like a running back getting 100 yards rushing)

 

[Kaleb]

Just a fantastic last few innings by JP and Dave towards the end


.

Last five overs: 96/0, run rate of 19.20.

Desperate times call for desperate measures. Due to some snow, our satellite's transmission has cut off, and now we're figuring out how to watch the match (Pakistan/India).

Can anyone PM me some sources?

I'm certainly looking forward to it, but frankly haven't seen anything astounding from India these last few months, aside from a few innings from Kohli and a couple of others. I haven't been following Pakistan so can't speak to their form.

All I can tell you about Pakistan is, regardless of India's output, we somehow find a way to play horrible against them.

As with most fans, there are Pakistan's cricket fans that wholeheartedly believe their team is rigged (at least whenever we play India).

 

[Hound55]

1/89 after 18 overs

R.G. Sharma c: Misbah b: Khan 15 (20)
S. Dhawan n.o. 41 (47)
V. Kohli n.o. 31 (42)

No Pakistani bowler has a maiden

Mohammad Irfan - 5 overs, 26 runs
Sohail Khan - 6 overs, 22 runs, one wicket
Shahidi Afridi - 4 overs, 23 runs
Wahab Riaz - 3 overs, 17 runs

 

[Iceman]

India 98-1 after 20 overs. Partnership developing between Dhawan & Kohli.

Wow, what a partnership and finish!!

 

[Kaleb]

man a world cup without Sachin just feels weird

 

[Kaleb]

Pakistani bowler Mohammad Irfan needs to be careful he has been warned twice now about running onto the pitch during his bowling,one more warning and he gets taken out of the attack

 

[Iceman]

Well I need to go to bed now.

Hope the matches turn out well.

Even as a supporter of Pakistan, I can't deny that the man was a beast.

I think ESPN will have a documentary of some sort for him tomorrow at 8 PM EST. I'll have to look into it again, but I saw an advertisement earlier.

Truly a legend in the cricket world.

 

[Kaleb]

Zim are 64/1 (Philander taking the first wicket)

 

[DeadPresident]

Yep do you remember your shambolic semi final run out against the Aussies in 99?

Alan Donald. I think that's when I stopped watching cricket.

 

[jmc]

I've never seen the Adelaide Oval have such awesome atmosphere in all my years of watching the game.

Zimbabwe in with a shot at 3/194 after 33 overs.

Pakistan contain India for 300.

 

[W/ Great Power]

It will be one uphill battle for Pakistan when we bat...
