PALLEKELE, Sri Lanka (AFP) – Emotional cricket fans went berserk upon Twitter as well as Facebook, venting their disappointment opposite fumbling wicket-keeper Kamran Akmal as well as perfectionist he be forsaken from a team.

Kamran gave century-maker Ross Taylor dual startling let-offs during Pakistan’s 110-run better opposite New Zealand upon Tuesday, blank dual law chances when a batsman was upon nought as well as eight.

Taylor went upon to strike an dominant career-best 131, light New Zealand to an commanding 302-7 in a World Cup Group A strife during Pallekele track prior to Pakistan were limited to 192 all out.

The better sparked a mad greeting from fans, who demanded Kamran be kicked out.

“Has Kamran practical for domestic haven in Sri Lanka?” tweeted Farhan Saya, referring to former wicket-keeper Zulqarnain Haider, who fled Pakistan’s group road house in Dubai final year as well as sought haven in Britain.

One air blower pronounced upon Twitter: “Has Shahid Afridi told Kamran which he has forsaken a World Cup with dual catches?”.
