T20: Auckland -vs- Pakistan - 23rd December 2010 [Pak Lost - Review thread]

Assalamu Aleikum

First of all, this game will NOT be televised (Confirmed by Auckland cricket, so no need to ask for links)
Will post a link for live text or audio coverage just before the game starts.

So less than 10 hours left for our first game of the series.
Look's like the buoyz have been training hard

I was checking Auckland's squad in my Cricket Coach 2011, and they have one Pakistani guy and 3-4 New Zealanders of Indian descent. Anyway, I was also at their Facebookpage and found out that tickets cost only 10 NZ $.

Anyway, it will be a good game

Watch out for their Kitchen, can sure serve us some too spicy stuff to handle in this short format:

Auckland team has 3 current NZ players, one former (and should be current) player and some up and coming future stars. So it's definitely 'game on', so to speak. If I didn't have work, I could go watch the game myself. Already taking work off to watch the International games so can't quite justify it for a warm up match. Tempting though!

Beautiful day here in Auckland. Sunny and not yet that humid. Perfect day for cricket, perfect day for Pakistan to find their feet and shake off jetlag and cobwebs.

Might be with live local radio commentary.Rain has caused a problem during training sessions as Pakistan have had only 2 days outdoor and the rest indoor.

I doubt it. The match is being played at a VERY small local ground, which is not much bigger than a club ground (but is visually, much nicer). There won't be any facilities for media, so don't imagine there would be commentary, on television or radio. Go to bed and rest easy

thanks

[Markhor]

Beautiful,picturesque grounds in New Zealand.

Great place for cricket (apart from the couple of people shouting racist abuse at Napier) and the best thing,even contests between bat and ball.Always a bit of grass in the wickets most of the time.

Auckland look a strong side so the players need to get into shape quickly.

[Nazir_ Rules]
