Thread for Pak vs SL series

[Deep Dey]

First topic message reminder :

Discuss here about Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Series,2011 in detail(only international matches(Test,ODI,T20))

UAE is the adopted home for Pakistan's Matches as well as bring back Cricket to UAE. This will surely one of the most tiring series of the year because of the heat in UAE. Going by last year's Pak vs SA series here, you can expect bowlers will have no rejoice. More importantly curators of India will be jealous of UAE curators because pitches here are evn more flatter than India.
Last year even DAle Steyn was useless here.
We can expect huge hundreds scored by batsman and huge score by both teams.

38.5 Shahid Afridi to S Prasanna, out Stumped!! Afridi stretches his hands in delight as another one falls. Flighted delivery just outside off, S Prasanna dances down the track but gets beaten in the flight, he swings across the line as the ball spins past the bat of Prasanna, the keeper whips the bails off with S Prasanna well out of the crease. S Prasanna st Sarfraz Ahmed b Shahid Afridi 5(14)

Sri Lanka 129/9 (39.5 ov)

39.5 Ajmal to Lakmal, out Stumped!! Ajmal gets another one. The doosra once again from Ajmal, gives this some air and lures Lakmal out of the crease, he jumps down the track and looks to loft it down the ground, the ball spins away as Lakmal misses out on the shot, goes to the keeper who breaks the wickets. Lakmal st Sarfraz Ahmed b Ajmal 0(2)

lol nice sig @ DEEP

[Legend Killer Harshit]

40.3 Shahid Afridi to Malinga, out Bowled!! And that will be all. Bowls this slower through the air as it drifts in on the middle and leg stump, Malinga has a wild swipe across the line, he swings and the ball clatters onto the stumps, Sri Lanka will be disappointed with this effort. Malinga b Shahid Afridi 11(14) [6s-1]
