Pakistan did their usual, luckily they had Akmal at 6.

 

[Ridders]

The fact that Bangladesh aren't in this tournament is a disgrace. The fact that Shakib al Hasan isn't in this tournament is a disgrace. The fact that were are being deprived of a potential match up between Shakib and Kallis is a disgrace.

 

[Twizzle]

that Windies opening bowler looked OK,

[TheParraboy]

T The fact that Shakib al Hasan isn't in this tournament is a disgrace. The fact that were are being deprived of a potential match up between Shakib and Kallis is a disgrace.

agree wholeheartedly here with you Ridders, its just not cricket

However tonight we have the Kallis Vs Vettori @ Oram showdown as a consolation prize

The fact that Bangladesh aren't in this tournament is a disgrace. The fact that Shakib al Hasan isn't in this tournament is a disgrace. The fact that were are being deprived of a potential match up between Shakib and Kallis is a disgrace.

That would be an awesome rematch. Shakib got the better of Jacques last december on Jacques' home tracks and I'm sure that Jacques would be looking for revenge.

It's not really a contest tonight. Jacques is head and shoulders above both of them.
