ICC Cricket World Cup, 2010/11 / Commentary

ICC Cricket World Cup - 2nd semi final

India v Pakistan

India won by 29 runs

33.2

Harbhajan Singh to Abdul Razzaq, no run, spin for Bhajji, played to the leg side

33.3

Harbhajan Singh to Abdul Razzaq, no run, nicely driven, but stopped by a diving cover fielder

33.4

Harbhajan Singh to Abdul Razzaq, 1 run, tapped off the back foot, into the off side

33.6

Harbhajan Singh to Abdul Razzaq, no run, Harbhajan comes back over the wicket, leg slip moves to a regular slip position, and Razzaq defends

Pakistan 144/5   Abdul Razzaq 1* (4b)

34.6

Patel to Abdul Razzaq, 1 run, Munaf goes full again, this time he slips towards leg stump however and Razzaq tucks him easily through square leg

Pakistan 146/5   Abdul Razzaq 2* (5b)

35.1

Yuvraj Singh to Abdul Razzaq, no run, lobbed up on off stump, gentle spin away and it's nudged to point

35.2

Yuvraj Singh to Abdul Razzaq, no run, Yuvraj comes round the wicket, tossing it up once more, and again Razzaq taps quietly into the off side

35.3

Yuvraj Singh to Abdul Razzaq, 1 run, Razzaq steps deep into the crease, working a straighter ball to square leg

Pakistan 147/5   Abdul Razzaq 3* (8b)

36.2

Patel to Abdul Razzaq, 1 wide, Razzaq steps to leg, giving himself room, and swishes wildly outside off ... the ball cuts away to beat him. Taufel's called that wide, but it's a bit harsh

36.2

Patel to Abdul Razzaq, OUT, gone! Bowled! Munaf sends down a slower ball, another legcutter, and Razzaq plays down completely the wrong line to lose his off stump. India surge ahead with that wicket, they've got control now.

Abdul Razzaq b Patel 3 (12m 9b 0x4 0x6) SR: 33.33

Pakistan 150/6   Abdul Razzaq 3 (9b)
