Yuvraj tends to poke a bit outisde off stump. So Razzaq will be looking to seam it away from yuvraj and hope to get the edge.

darn it!
razzaq will continue...india 60/4
that's alright...i aint mad atcha razzaq!

I would have brought on Shoaib in place of Asif...
Razzaq is usually quite good at bowling to lefties...he gets the ball to nicely slant across the lefties..he's gotten Ganguly a few time like tht
 
A wicket in the last over, would wrap the day up nicely
 
i don't get this...it's not like razzaq has express pace that he can't control his line. why then ? damn...muftay kay four runs!
and bryan adams is so....early 90s...
 
India's long batting lline up looks like it'll come in handy. Dhoni and Ifran to come.
 
Allah miyan one more wicket pindi comes in bowls nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn bouncer ducks underneath a slower delivery would be gud right now!
 
Gangauly has to get out of the way quick to these shoaib balls. I say slip in the slower ball now.
 
He might try one of his famous slower balls in this over.
 
yeah a slower one to ganguly would be nice wouldn't it...scare him with some pace and put the slow on in there...h ewalks away after playing that one...probably thinking "holy ritz crackers! how did i manage that?"
 
Is the light fadding?
if its is we should get Danni into the attack..and keep the Indians out there as long as possible
 
15.5 Akhtar to Ganguly, 2 runs, very much full, inner edge goes to deep square leg, Ganguly was bold enough to comeback for the second, gutsy approach!

gutsy ganguly
 
DADA on a mission!!!! so determined :))):))) end of the days play peeps see u all tomorow takecare be gud n be safe!Ciao00!
 
Look at Akthars change of action, you could see he generated more pace. He should have done that from the start to get the wicket.
 
yeah guys! good morning to you all! i'm off to bed! 3 more for my 350! i'll get to that milestone tomorrow! see you all tomorrow!
PAKISTAN ZINDABAD
PINDI ZINDABAD

hahahahhahahaaha all the talk of our excellent batting line up the class of moyo, prospect of salman wow the patience of younis....hahahahahahaha all down the drain...this is what you get for supporting Pakistan...now I remember why I stopped supporting these losers a long time ago...you put your heart and soul into the team...you support them through all the scandals...math fixings...poor performances...infighting...mismanagement and how do they repay you...they stretch your limits over and over and over again until one day you can't take it anymore and tell yourself I'm gonna stop supporting these losers because a loser country makes a loser cricket team...

well if you only support pak when theyre winning its called glory hunting!

what is the context?
 
This is a thread which should be read from the start for extra value entertainment.
 
provides a truly fascinating read

are taps & romali indian supporters

hey can we have a little icon(perhaps a flag) which suggest one's fave country, so we have a better understanding of the context. 2 flags of pakistan for me

i was wondering if we had won the toss and put india in to bat, what would the final result have been?
hypotethical question, but did we ride in the back of kamran & raz's jazba(not to forget shoaib's bowling), or could we have
 
Such intensity, such fightback, such a huge huge Test match! What a turnaround! From 0-3 in the first innings to a massive kick-a$$ triumph of 341 runs and that too when we declared our world-record second innings with 7 down and the two top scoreres of the first innings still undefeated!
 
woooh......What a day of TEST cricket!! gosh it not only tested the player but also the fans! A true litmus test!
 
This thread shows what Pak cricket team and its fans are all about - intense, unpredictable and mighty brilliant!

It also shows who the true outrageous optimists are amongst us - those who even at 39/6 were still holding the heads high. I swear I would have been one of them posting here had it not been for me watching the match with mates and thus unable to post.

It also shows how truly fabulous and dangerous Akhtar is when the chips are down. He batted like a true warrior with Akmal on the first day and then came back to deliver absolute thunderbolts scaring the daylights out of Sehwag and Tendulkar, hitting the latter flash bang on the head with a rip-snorting 95 mph brute of a bouncer, contributing to the batsman's tame dismissal soon thereafter.

The thread is most memorable though for the two new aces of Pak cricket - Asif and Akmal. It was being said before this Test that this was once in a lifetime opportunity for a player on either side to make themselves instant legends in their country, and the duo responded so magnificently. Akmal's knock is probably the most precious innings ever played by a Pak batsman, in context of the circumstances and the impact on the Series. Asif's demolition of bewildered Indian top batsmen merely alerted the world that another major bowling superstar from Pak has arrived.
 
The "outrageous optimists" who continued to big up their team in great adversity even at the stage when we were 39/6 in the first innings....following are the ones out of the 30-odd PPers posting at that time:



RunInzyRun
"Shut up all of you about Razzaq, he's saved us before, he can save us again, has everyone forgotten Akmal and Razzaq's innings?"


cavin420
"39 for 5 i couldnt have my breakfast well atlest therz no danger of breaking that lowest test score records ......i feel even if we get 200 odd would be a preety decent effort"


OZGOD
"Two players need to do rearguards here."



the true passionist
"yeh...comon Pak batsmen give our bowlers a chance to ball on this one..."


Hash
"Remember people keep your spirits up. I know it is difficult when we are 43 for 6 but we have dug ourselves out and won test matches from worse positions before......we can do it again!"



Elan Tedonai
"oh god forgive my sins.

please make kamran and razzaq score centuries"




Big Mac
This dude simply puts up the Calcutta'99 scorecard to remind everyone what kind of team we are passionate followers of!!


cinderella
"hey i think akmal is a good player. razzaq and akmal can KINDA make it......im sure they can.
if indian bowlers are doing this well.......pak bowlers are gonna b on fire.......inshaAllah.
but yeah, hoping indian batters will make some dumb mistakes too lol"




ggm
"In addition to the 99 Calcutta Test, Pakistan also fought back from being 30 odd for 5 in the W.I in 2000 in the first two Tests, to draw both Tests."



rayhan
"Lets hope Pakistan put up a decent total, and give back some of their own when it comes time to the Indians batting. Discipline is needed."



nadeem
"Make no mistake, this team is a fighting, praying, battling unit. Inzi has changed things totally. Its a new PAK spirit which pervades the whole team. Everyone is a fighter now. Even if we get out for 100 and the ball stops swinging post first session (as it has) I'd never write our team off."


ahaPassion
"Winners always remain positive and must focus on wining the game and InshAllah Pakwill pass through this difficult time."






The ultimate one though - yes no prizes for guessing, it's MIG!

"Well apparently we have won a match from such a position in Calcutta some time ago - we were 26/6 then !!"



*******************
This thread is also a kick in the teeth for sick demented racist idiots like the one who posted the following just when Pak went down 0/3 in the very first over....Post #122....



"why was pakistan so successful in 1992......because they DID NOT HAVE PUNJABI POLITICS in them.........stop being rasict.......be fair to the rest of pakistan....there are other better bowlers in pakistan the mohammad asif....where did umar gul go.......where did sami go...is he seriously injured or is it just being said that he is injured.....start playing in other places of pakistan as well....there are other good stadiums in pakistan...wht about multan,hydrabad........................IF PAKISTAN LOSSES THEN THEY WILL LOSE BECAUSE OF THIER OWN PUNJABI GARDIE.....PUNJABI POLITICS.....


IF U WANT CRICKET TO FLOURSH IN PAKISTAN THEN STOP THIS PUNJABI POLITICS......"


The fool was not to be seen again after watching the same cricketers absolutely lynch India into submission - the ones he was so blatantly cussing.
 
Classic thread. What a comeback, from 39-6 to a 341 run win.

I remember on the cricbuzz chat bar on the side, alot of Indians were laughing and celebrating when we were 0-3. They were talking about how we would get bowled out for 10 and India, through their magnificent batting lineup would make 600. Boy, were they in for a suprise! :)))
 
Oh man.

The memories of this game will live on forever! Just reading back, can't help but laugh at my falling out with Nauman the pessimist!
