Jayawardene’s captaincy was the difference – Cricket News Roundup – Part II – October 5, 2012
Former Pakistan skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DPMD-Jayawardene-c1397 after his side outdone Pakistan in the first semi-final of the World T20 Championship, in Colombo last night.
The 2009 World Cup winning captain of Pakistan, who is appearing as an expert on a state TV channel, said that Jayawardene’s sensible batting and astute captaincy was the difference between the two sides last night.
"He batted well and he captained well and I thought that was the difference between the two sides," said the 34-year-old right-handed batsman, who played 79 Tests and 245 One Day Internationals for his country.
Former PCB chief selector http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Abdul-Razzaq-c41623 after Pakistan failed to chase down 140-run target, in the World T20 semi-final.
"I felt there was lack of understanding between the captain and management and players and if it is true that Hafeez unilaterally insisted on playing http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sohail-Tanvir-c90665 today than he should be questioned and so should the management," he said.
Pakistan team failed to chase down a gettable 140-run target set by the Jayawardene led Sri Lankan batting line-up. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Imran-Nazir-c64248 (20) were the other notable performers as the rest of the line-up fell for single digit scores.

The incident took place in the 17th over when Umar Akmal, at the non-striker end at that time, changed his gloves without consent of on-field umpires http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 code of conduct, article 2.2.11, which relates to "conduct contrary to the spirit of the game".
"Umar showed blatant disregard to both the umpires' requests, which was offensive and unacceptable from an international cricketer and contrary to our unique spirit, hence a level two charge was laid," said Crowe. "Respect for the umpires is integral and is something which we always emphasise and encourage."
