bulbul Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 We all enjoyed' date=' but some OTT jacking by some, not least you[/quote'] Thats what make games more funny... You gave example of Pollard that guy became millionnaire becuase of that innings.....
Jersey #10 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Posted May 6, 2012 They say, use your best bowlers in the last three overs. Well, you can't do much better than Dale Steyn ABDV is such a fvking class...awesome is an understatement
Old guy Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 It was like watching Jayasuriya at his peak. abdv is better then any jaya :beee:
sarcastic Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 It was like watching Jayasuriya at his peak. It was more than that! I don't remember seeing Jayasuriya hitting against the best bowler of the era in that manner as ABDV. In fact I don't think Jaya could have ever done it against Walsh/Ambrose/Wasim/Waqar/McGrath etc. ABDV :hatsoff:
Zelig Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 It was like watching Jayasuriya at his peak. Good analogy :hatsoff: But I like Hayden more than suriya. There was this game between Aus vs Aus 'A'. Haydos literally raped McGrath :agree:
Old guy Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Good analogy :hatsoff: But I like Haden more than suriya. There was this game between Aus vs Aus 'A'. Haydos literally raped McGrath :agree: agree u can compare him to hayden... hayden always scared me while batting
Zelig Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Steyn is not a great death bowler in T20s. Malinga and Narine are, Dale no.
ganeshran Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Steyn is not a great death bowler in T20s. Malinga and Narine are' date=' Dale no.[/quote'] This. Steyn's quota should be bowled up front.
vvvslaxman Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 abdv is better then any jaya :beee: Are you sure http://www.espncricinfo.com/ipl/engine/match/336018.html
jairamesh Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Thats what make games more funny... You gave example of Pollard that guy became millionnaire becuase of that innings..... So then hopefully AB will attract bigger bids at next year's auction. Selfish bastard eyeing the $2 million bracket to join the mighty ranks of Jaddu and Yusuf.
Jersey #10 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Posted May 6, 2012 Steyn is not a great death bowler in T20s. Malinga and Narine are' date=' Dale no.[/quote'] Are you kidding me? Steyn bowled pretty well in that over. He got the yorker right as well. It was all ABDV's class and brute force.
vvvslaxman Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 It was more than that! I don't remember seeing Jayasuriya hitting against the best bowler of the era in that manner as ABDV. In fact I don't think Jaya could have ever done it against Walsh/Ambrose/Wasim/Waqar/McGrath etc. ABDV :hatsoff: 2.1 Shoaib Akhtar to Uthappa, 1 run, Shoaib fires the ball in from wide of the crease, Uthappa jumps back and across and fends the ball towards the leg side, he calls Jayasuriya through for the quick single 2.2 Shoaib Akhtar to Jayasuriya, FOUR, Shoaib gives Jayasuriya a tiny bit of room outside off and that's all he needs to uses his forearms and drives the ball hard through cover off the back foot, he's not timed it well but the ball still goes over the boundary 2.3 Shoaib Akhtar to Jayasuriya, SIX, shot! Stunning stuff! Jayasuriya moves a fraction across his stumps and picks Shoaib off his pads and deposits him over the long leg boundary, that was hit hard and flat with a lot of bottom hand and it just cleared the boundary 2.4 Shoaib Akhtar to Jayasuriya, 2 runs, Shoaib pitches short and Jayasuriya pulls the ball along the ground through midwicket Shoaib goes round the wicket. 2.5 Shoaib Akhtar to Jayasuriya, FOUR, too full and too wide outside off stump, Jayasuriya leans into it and powers the ball over extra cover with a full and free swing of his bat, the ball bounces once before going over the boundary 2.6 Shoaib Akhtar to Jayasuriya, SIX, incredible incredible shot! Shoaib goes back over the wicket and bowls a short of a length delivery on leg and middle, Jayasuriya moves across his stumps and plays a short arm pull that sends the ball soaring over deep midwicket
Jersey #10 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Posted May 6, 2012 Are you sure http://www.espncricinfo.com/ipl/engine/match/336018.html I still remember that game :haha: Kapu has Econ. of 31.20 :haha:
jairamesh Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Manyank innings of 18 of 6 was crucial in the context of the game.
Old guy Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Are you sure http://www.espncricinfo.com/ipl/engine/match/336018.html yes... over all ab is better i don know abt his test stats though (talking abt jaya.. he has 300 or few 200 im sure) but still ab is better overall or atleast i like his style of batting more :--D
Manny_Pacquiao Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 that was sick. how did he hit that 4th bal for six?? it was pretty well directed from steyn. i guess AB just guessed that it was gonna be full and made room for himself immediately. amazing
