SRI LANKA!

Pakistan needs a 8.51 run rate to catch up. They're at 5.43.

Pakistan is ASS!

pico · 06-12-09, 09:50 AM

i think sri lanka got 150 runs.

pakistan has 6.3/20 and they need at least 113 runs to win

pico · 06-12-09, 09:51 AM

since sbr_john said this cricket thing is the most betted sport in the world. i signed up at cricketime forum to learn something about it.

Squirrel · 06-12-09, 09:52 AM

Dangerous team Pakistan, lots of batting depth and some explosive hitters. This aint over yet!

pico · 06-12-09, 09:55 AM

pakistan got 44 runs with 8 overs. i guess they need to score 107 runs with the remaining 12 overs or 8 outs

I love cricket, excellent to watch if you know what the hell is going on. From a punting perspective I prefer the test matches though

pico · 06-12-09, 10:01 AM

ok, this thing is not that to figure out.

Pakistan require another 93 runs with 7 wickets and 10.2 overs remaining

pico · 06-12-09, 10:02 AM

Must be fractional then I assume? stuff like 11/4 and 13/8?

Younis Khan is a BEAST! HAPPY CRICKET DAY EVERYBODY!!

12.4 Malinga to Misbah Ul-Haq, 2 runs, to deep mid wicket
12.3 Malinga to Misbah Ul-Haq, no run, slower delivery outside off, Misbah Ul-Haq cant lay bat on ball
12.2 Malinga to Younis Khan, 1 run, yorker length on the stumps, Younis Khan digs it out to long on
12.1 Malinga to Younis Khan, no run, the slow bouner, completely fools Younis Khan as he pulls
Lasith Malinga [1.0-0-3-1] is back into the attack
HCL Leaptop T39: Stunningly beautiful at the most shocking price!
11.6 Muralitharan to Younis Khan, 1 run, swept to short fine leg, to the left of Mubarak this time, Younis Khan retains the strike with that run
11.5 Muralitharan to Misbah Ul-Haq, 1 run, full toss down the leg side, Misbah Ul-Haq sweeps it to short fine leg, Jehan dives to his right and saves 3 runs
11.4 Muralitharan to Misbah Ul-Haq, no run, slowed it down on the stumps, Misbah Ul-Haq goes on the backfoot and defends it
11.3 Muralitharan to Misbah Ul-Haq, 2 runs, drags it down on the middle and leg, Misbah Ul-Haq whips it to backward square leg
11.2 Muralitharan to Younis Khan, 1 run, again swept from outside off to backward square leg

Squirrel · 06-12-09, 10:18 AM

Just had a token sum on Pakistan in running at +163. They are cruising at the moment, getting boundaries early in the overs and then knocking it about with ease.

not sure.

they have India -vs- West Indies 0.0 0.520 1.660

doesn't look like decimal because 1.66 decimal is like a minus american odds.

Matt Rain · 06-12-09, 10:19 AM

SIA here. Limit was precisely $185.59.

Squirrel · 06-12-09, 10:19 AM

Yeah I have no idea what all those odds mean lol

I don't like the sound of this. Someone might wanna call Homeland Security at this point.

Squirrel · 06-12-09, 10:24 AM

This damn game is being spoilt for me by an annoying woman commentator on the radio. Seriously, GET THE HELL BACK TO THE KITCHEN!!!!

Squirrel · 06-12-09, 10:25 AM

Dammit, Misbah-Ul-Haq is out! 101-4 after 15.3

pico · 06-12-09, 10:25 AM

damn stream just stopped. back to watching espn scoreboard...

Squirrel · 06-12-09, 10:27 AM

Grrr Shahid Afridi caught out following ball. Murli on a hat-trick and the game is slipping away from Pakistan.

RogueJuror · 06-12-09, 10:28 AM

Squirrel · 06-12-09, 10:32 AM

Younis out for 50 even though the fielders ran into each other. Game over now.

decimals are 'in' specially with the rise of the euro books. frankly i think hk odds is the besst method to use, just list the payout to the cents, there's nothing better.

Agreed. Least confusing of all. Yay HK odds notation.

Either kitchen or shed some clothes and join the cheerleaders (pending approval by squirrel).

This thread won't be a success until shanty posts.
