But would the umpire have gone upstairs without the non-striker contesting?
10 needed of 6. Matches between these 2 never fail to excite. Wish they'd play a test match sometime.
On that no-ball, did the umpire signal for the first one, that it was one for the over?
whats going on ? 
Boom! That's how you end it.
Excellent by Malik.
VICTORRRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

Fantastic knock from Malik, what a shot to win it.
I think you are allowed to ball one ball per over that is higher than the waist but its a no if its higher than the shoulder(head?).
Why is this tour so short though? Two t-20s and three odis doesnt feel like a proper series.
Is it me or does he play his best against India?
Superb game.
India started well, Pakistan bowled at the death brilliantly. Kumar then bowled a superb spell of swing bowling, a terrific partnership looked to set up the Pakistan win, India came back but then Malik kept his head and ended it with a lovely shot.
Fantastic game, can't wait until Friday.

You are allowed one short ball if it's between head and shoulder. Over the head, it's a no ball without a warning. Given Maliks feet wasn't on the ground, it was clearly a no ball.
No, you can bowl one ball in an over which is higher than the shoulder, but if it's higher than the head, it's called a wide(or a no-ball, not sure). And the second one over the shoulder is a no ball.
What i'm asking is whether the umpire signalled after the first one over the shoulder, that it was over the shoulder, and that Ishant couldn't bowl another one over the shoulder.
I don't recall anything being shown to indicate that.
If we had not imploded while batting, 160 would have been enough twin this one. We were 100+ after 14 overs with 7 wickets in hand.

Thanks...had forgotten the rule as heard it such a long time ago.
Ishant one was over his head though as he was jumping when trying to play that shot.
He does have a good record against India, remember him getting almost 150 against them in ODIs. Can go either way with him though, today he was fantastic but the next game he might be out for 5 runs off 20 balls.
Good interview
Another great game. Typical India v Pakistan match.
I should pay more attention to Pakstani cricket then, always thought he was a good sensible batsmen.

Good interview
What did he say?
He's married to Sania Mirza the Indian tennis player, the interviewer said there's one member of your family who won't be happy to which he responded, she'll be happy I made runs.
If he didn't indicate that it was one for the over, he can't give the other ball a no-ball, it was his fault for the first one.
I think if it's over the head, it's called a wide. And as the batsman had touched the ball, it can't be called a wide. Therefore it could only be called no-ball for being the second ball over the shoulder in an over.
Correct me if i'm wrong.
No need for a warning if the ball is over your head. It's a noball.
Why the feck was Jadeja playing as a 4th bowler? Idiotic team selection. Ashwin should have played.
That ball was not over his head though... Would really be a stretch to call it a no-ball.
Nope...am pretty sure its a no ball for height. remember a discussion when the free hit rule came that its only no for front foot/back foot shots.
You guys had wayy to many batsmen in the line up, very lopsided lineup. From cricinfo..
Indian fast bowlers - 12-0-58-5, Indian part timers - 7.4-0-75-0
Cost u the match, bowling kohli,yuvraj and jadeja.
Then i guess it was the right decision. The commentators seemed to be saying it's called a wide and not a no-ball when it's over the head, so had me confused.
Anyway, poor display from India. Only positive is Kumar for me. He swings it like Praveen Kumar. Where's Praveen now?

India lineup was all wrong - no Ashwin was surprising.
Kumar has had a decent start to his career as has Irfan.
Can someone tell me is this a new trend in Pakistan - finding old bowlers like Ajmal and Irfan when usually Pakistan used to find 18 year old quicks.
India must be cursing their batsmen - never should have got the lowish score.

He averages 50+ in ODIs against India.
Superb catch Wade! Aussies in total control on day 1.
Jackson Bird has had a good debut. Mitchell Johnson is bowling well. He is such an inconsistent tit, can be a world-beater on his day but can also be dreadful just as often. Sums him up that on his potential hat-trick delivery, he bowled a no-ball.

Warner, what an absolute talent.
Had the displeasure of chasing 180 around the park when we played Easts 8 or 9 years ago. Absolutely smoked us that day. Was not fun.

Dhoni's genius, as usual.
Do we know it was MS's choice to replace Ashwin? There are also selectors, and a coach who has a say in these matters. Fans are so fickle - During MS' reign as captain India have limited overs World cup, 20/20 World cup, and were the number one test team. Give the guy a break, and some respect.
It was probably Dhoni's decision, but I wouldn't blame him for it.
Some gambles work, some don't. He's a good limited overs captain.
Dew is playing a big factor. Whoever won the toss has won the last three T20 games.
There is that factor. 20/20 games are a circus, and luck plays a major part in how games are concluded.
I think the ODIs are going to go the same route with the toss deciding things.
They're better than one day internationals.
