2nd Test: Pakistan vs South Africa @ Port Elizabeth (Day 1)

[karachiite]

Clever bowling by shoaib. He's not at top pace pr fitness by means but he's using his brain.

 

[Pakistani tigers]

come on shoaiby! Eat that PCB!

 

[mkexpress]

As i said this will be mother of all comebacks by shoaibeee INSHAALLAH.... COME ON BOY!! Lets rockem!

 

[GQ]

yes!! shoaib strikes again!

 

[shan]

yes akttar

where is inzy and monsee?

 

[Osman]

Amla Gone To Shoaib !!!!!!!

 

[octavian]

PP did u get my invite ?

 

[sehban]

what f*** is up with doctrove and shaoib !!?

what happened?

 

[hasbeen]

so is shoaib looking terribly unfit as everyone was saying ?

he was huffing and puffing. he aint at full pace to say the least. but still ten times better than rana, nazir and sami put together.

 

[octavian]

what happened?

they looked to be in some kind of length conversation.. shobby wasnt happy

 

[shan]

now we need asif to fire.

 

[inzidabest]

more wickets please

 

[161]

"Poor stroke again from a South Africa batsman. There was no need to play at that - and even if he did, it should've been pulled. The pace is working for Pakistan here."

ahhh been a while since i heard stuff like that !

 

[amerrahman]

Shoaibs 5th over:

Ball Speed
1 141
2 138
3 139
4 142.7
5 142.4
6 138.6

 

[MIG]

Guys last wrning - pls do not post personal email addresses here.

 

[shan]

now imagine having gul. sami will be even worst then rana and nazir combined.

 

[161]

8.4 Shoaib Akhtar to Kallis, no run, ooh that was pretty quick, 89mph (142kph), but Kallis worked it to leg pretty neatly

 

[octavian]

i want gibbs to face shoaib

 

[mkexpress]

he was huffing and puffing. he aint at full pace to say the least. but still ten times better than rana, nazir and sami put together.

agree 100%

 

[iZeeshan]

I am afraid Shoaib will be overbowled by Inzi in ths spell. I think he should come off next over the latest.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

i want gibbs to face shoaib

hey Octa just email me the precious information.

 

[Sparhawk]

I thought i saw some reverse swing from akhtar in his 5th over... maybe just conventional swing. Bowling 6th over of the spell.

 

[Nice-N-Fresh]

The pace is working!!!

 

[octavian]

[Shayan]

[amerrahman]

[octavian]

[PlanetPakistan]

[Pakistani tigers]

[mkexpress]

why is the overrate so slow...or is it my internet

I think it might be ur internet!

 

[shan]

35/2 12 overs. drinks. we need quick wickets.

 

[Nice-N-Fresh]

only one no-ball so far...

 

[shan]

kaneria comes to bowl. where is malcom sami?

 

[Hash]

South Africa in a lot of trouble here.

Pakistan well on top. Good stuff.

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

kaneria on...i think inzi is trying to bring asif from the other end so thats why one over for kaneria

 

[shan]

South Africa in a lot of trouble here.

Pakistan well on top. Good stuff.

remember we have sami. yeah marshal sami.

 

[shan]

again beaten

 

[iZeeshan]

Wow! Kaneria stuck!

Amazing!

 

[Oxy]

35/2 12 overs. drinks. we need quick wickets.

Its not an ODI! Besides we have 2 test wkts in 12 overs!

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

haha...kaneria gets a wicket in its first over...n its EID

 

[karachiite]

The surprise element works for Pakistan. Bringing on Kaneria turns out to be a good descision by Inzi.

 

[Pakistani tigers]

is he out?

 

[octavian]

oh damn !! Kaneria gets a wicket before a 100 ??

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Danish strikes, smith gone!!!!!!

 

[Shayan]

yup, 40-3

 

[Hash]

Its not an ODI! Besides we have 2 test wkts in 12 overs!

Oxy )

I had to ignore that post personally

 

[Bailan]

yea

Smith gone

 

[shan]

can't believe this kaneria and wicket in first over

 

[Zeenix]

Unbelievable.. Kaneria strikes before a hundred runs..

 

[iZeeshan]

If we can get one of these two before 80 we're in business!

 

[octavian]

prince is in

 

[mkexpress]

OHHHH JEE DAANI!!! Welldone

 

[Oxy]

Come on Pak - only 3 wkts in 12 overs of a test. Whats wrong. We need another wkt.

 

[Ahmad]

Great stuff by the leggie..!! Seems to me that the criticism has done him a bit of good!

 

[Pakistani tigers]

hahaha guys takei t easy on kaneria!

 

[161]

someone slap me i must be dreaming how could this be ?

 

[Zeenix]

How did Smith get out.. ?????

 

[pak4life]

inzy bought kaneria on instead of sami. good to see inzy is bieng imaginative! woohoo

 

[Shayan]

sami on

 

[iZeeshan]

Sami on. Lets see wat he can do.

 

[karachiite]

Malcolm into the attack and a decent first delivery.

 

[badxhah]

blue eyed boy of woolmer pcb sami bahi on the show

 

[shan]

Marshal in. 40/3.

 

[from_da_lost_dim3nsion]

sami bowling fast, first bowl 141.7

 

[hello143]

sami on

Everyone should start keeping their eyes on boundary line.

 

[MIG]

Kaneria the Destroyer!!

Kaneria to Smith, out Caught by Younis!! Smith fails to read the googly, goes for the the booming drive through the mid on area, gets an outside edge, Akmal drops it but Younis Khan latches onto it G Smith c Y Khan b D Kaneria 28(44) 4s-3 6s-0

 

[Bailan]

2nd ball nearly 142 kph

 

[Amoeba]

Good catch by Younis but Akmal again fluffs a chance off a spinner.......

 

[Zeenix]

Sami On.. No.. Sami and Kaneria bowling in Tandem. Recipe for disaster

 

[Ahmad]

Mohammad Sami warming up at the Duckpond End
12.6 Danish Kaneria to Prince, no run, tidy ball to end the over, tempting the left hander just outside his off stump but he defends first up
12.5 Danish Kaneria to Smith, OUT, gone this time! Younis Khan did well there to keep his head at first slip after the parry from Akmal. Smith misjudges the wrong one, there's a big swish, and sends the edge to Akmal and it pops off his left glove to be snapped at first slip. A great start for Pakistan, three wickets early on, with Kaneria striking in his first over

 

[badxhah]

sami got a hair cut maybe speen n line n length would be betta

 

[mkexpress]

Come on sami bend ur back son! we want pace!

 

[Pakistani tigers]

come on boys, let us back Sami. I am sure he does not try to bowl badly. He has been unlucky catching wise too by his fielders!

 

[Zeenix]

Come on sami bend ur back son! we want pace!

But not from the Batsmen..

 

[amerrahman]

Sami's 1st over :


1 -
2 141.9
3 138.2
4 138.6
5 137.8
6 143.0

 

[Zeenix]

come on boys, let us back Sami. I am sure he does not try to bowl badly. He has been unlucky catching wise too by his fielders!

We don't need Unlucky people.. then

 

[iZeeshan]

Good start by Sami. Only 2 runs and good pace.

Btw, ~140 KPH is how many MPH?

 

[shan]

just 2 runs? good over by sami standard.

 

[Pakistani tigers]

did sami bowl the fastest ball of the series then at 143?
