Nothing is impossible when it comes to Pakistan cricket.
Zimbabwe take a wicket each in the first and last over. What a fecking joke of a team.

Thank you Samuel. Saved Sehwag's and Rohit's record.
Captain of my fantasy team, Mental Gayle is.

Totally. 5 odd overs to go with 60 runs to get, would not have put it past Gayle. WI just went from a joke to dark horses. Watch them lose against a no-hopers like England next game.
Gayle was out first ball apparently, umpire's call and all that
It was defo out. Makes me think hawk-eye is not that accurate. I wonder how it takes into account the variable bounce on every pitch.
I think the on-field and the third umpire need to communicate on the reason why the ump on the field gave the decision not out. If Davis gave it not out because he heard two sounds and thought that the bat was involved, and not because of the height of the ball then how was it "Umpire's call"?
Sometimes I feel India is right in not accepting DRS until the system becomes full-proof. Gayle looked plumb, to me it looked like it would have crashed well below the tracker showed.
He is my captain too!
ffs! You must be getting 1000 points today!I have both
fecking sammy is my captian though.
The captain rule fecks me up though, half of you lot have gayle as captain and the rest, samuels.
Sammy's gonna take 5 wickets today I reckon. But why Sammy as captain? He's not even the real captain of Windies, so won't get any overs man.
I have Taylor as my captain. Good game.
Edit: The Windies one that is.

Gayle was too big of a risk, and samuels failed the last two matches.
Also, I might have gotten sammy and simmons mixed up.
This has always been my concern about DRS, there is no way he gave it not out because because he thought it would go over the stumps
Sammy bowls each match and bowls well. Plus he scores some quick fire runs. I have him too. Nobody saw this coming though. Many in fantasy must have got either Sammy or Russell.
Commentators having a shocker.
Come on rain and D/L, let Zimbabwe chase 150 in 20 overs.
Naah. Think Zimbabwe made them look good. Any half decent attack which could contain Gayle and I doubt they would make as many runs.

How the feck did the 3rd umpire give that out when original decision was not out? Another stupid decision.
Zims have done exceptionally well.
Without the stupid DRS decisions could have given the Windies a serious game.

Ridiculous really.
I will be getting 600 odd fantasy points today. Given I didn't have Gayle, that's decent number of points.
Chris Gayle is the king.

What a man.
Younis Khan will retire from ODI's after the tournament. About fecking time. It's amazing how his reputation has kept him in the side for the last 6-7 years. His career average is 31, that's woeful for a top/middle order batsman.
Younis Khan has denied that he made that declaration. Tough luck.
Day 12: Ireland vs UAE
UAE doing quite well here. Would be quite a big win for them.
Not a huge cricket fan so was wondering if there's any hubub about most of the UAE players not being born in the UAE?
Kevin O'BrienBrilliant innings from Anwar.
Great innings and gives his team a fighting chance. How are the UAE bowlers?
I think that Javed fella had a pretty good bowling performance the other night.
Cheers might just have a flutter on UAE. Nice tagline btw

Don't, just had a check and looked like a normal performance tbh, I am sure his name was getting flung about a lot the other day for something though.
Yeah ended up passing. Not good enough odds on either team.
Could get over 10/1 on UAE earlier, wish I'd stuck a few quid on at those odds, but at the current odds neither is worth it imo
Yeah i saw those odds when it they were 3 or 4 wickets down. Shoulda pulled the trigger then
Man that's some rotten luck.
Are they using heavy bails?

Happens. Once in 1000 matches, but happens.
The Irish look clueless against the spin.
Anwar turned the inning around with help of Javed. UAE were struggling with 6 wickets down and RR of around 4. The 7th wicket partnership of 100 runs at 10 runs PO changed game on its head. A target of 225 and this would have been totally different game at this stage.
