4th Test, Day 4: Eng vs Pak updates

[Easa]

Dani bowling like a true champion this morning.

 

[Billy]

How on earth does a spinner bowl so many no balls?

 

[Salman]

Danish is on fire today... he's due one soon.

 

[Easa]

Dani getting MASSIVE turn.

 

[Amjid Javed]

kaneria turning it miles.

4 byes given.

Kaneria needs to keep ball behidn line. am shocked doctrove saw it!

 

[iZeeshan]

4 byes. Ugh.

 

[Rob H]

If i was Cook i'd try and adopt the sweep and as i write this Nasser talks of sweeping.

 

[iZeeshan]

Danish is on fire today... he's due one soon.

Not if Doctrove can help it.

 

[Easa]

Akmal wearing a helmet, i think thats the first time while keeping.

 

[Amjid Javed]

another loopi catch and ball goes into gap!

 

[Easa]

That just evades the fielders!

 

[Amjid Javed]

gr8 take by akmal.

we need a leg slip!

 

[iZeeshan]

Akmal wearing a helmet, i think thats the first time while keeping.

That's really not a good sign. That means he gets scared now.

 

[Easa]

Superb take by Akmal down the legside.

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

Damnn Luck just aint with Kaneria at the moment... Lol its great to watch the battle Kaneria and Crook

 

[slix10]

Why isn't Asif bowling?

Any ideas?

 

[iZeeshan]

Danish bowling extremely well. I see him bowling around 30 overs today.

 

[Easa]

That's really not a good sign. That means he gets scared now.

They way the ball is spinning, any keeper would wear a helmet.

How the hell does that prove he's scared?

 

[Rob H]

take that, short and wide outside the off peg.

 

[iZeeshan]

They way the ball is spinning, any keeper would wear a helmet.

How the hell does that prove he's scared?

Well aside from that fact, it would prove you're scared if you have never worn a helmet before, and you are now.

 

[Easa]

Cut away for 4. Not where to bowl to Strauss.

His whole game is based around the horizontal bat shots, the cut and the pull. Don't pitch short to him.

 

[iZeeshan]

Cut away for 4. Strauss is goig to be a problem. But I want to see Danish bowling to him.

 

[iZeeshan]

Don;t you think the bowlers know that? SOme times a bouncer just comes out. But he's not tired, so it was prolly intentional.

 

[Rob H]

100 up for the Englistan boys.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Gul has bowled to short in this inns, hes got to bowl yard fuller.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Eng 100/1 - trail by 231.

 

[iZeeshan]

Gul doesn't look that good. Bring Asif on, and then a short Nazir spell. Then have Hafeez and Kaneria finish until lunch.

 

[Amjid Javed]

poor fielding for moyo.

single taken by cook!

 

[iZeeshan]

I just had this horrid idea of Faisal Iqbal being captain in 5 years.

 

[Salman]

Moyo fumbles in the field

 

[iZeeshan]

Misfield for Mohammad Yousuf, again.

 

[UJ]

Hey all,

Was there a bad decision off Kaneria earlier?

 

[Billy]

Kaneria should get a bagful here.

 

[iZeeshan]

Cook on 42, Strauss on 46

 

[Salman]

excellent over from Dani...

 

[Bilsher007]

Pakistan deperately needs to get strauss, cook and peitersen out quickly. For now atleast two quick wickets, need to break this partnership of cook and strauss. INSHALLAH pakistan will succeed in winning today.

 

[iZeeshan]

Hey all,

Was there a bad decision off Kaneria earlier?

You can bet there was.

 

[Rob H]

Oh well shame eh, Nasser and Ramiz are leaving us.

 

[Amjid Javed]

asif onto bowl now.

 

[Salman]

Shot 4 Strauss

 

[Amjid Javed]

50 for strauss, gets there with cut shot for 4

 

[iZeeshan]

Asif on.

 

[Rob H]

Asif bowls a loosener, cut for 4. And another 50 for the skipper. Well played boss.

 

[iZeeshan]

4 runs, great shot!

 

[Salman]

Asif said it might revese swing for him today

 

[Bilsher007]

What's the news with nazir ?, is he fit now to bowl ?. Kaaneria needs to give pakistan breakthroughs quickly. Need to bring asif back into attack.

 

[iZeeshan]

What's the news with nazir ?, is he fit now to bowl ?. Kaaneria needs to give pakistan breakthroughs quickly. Need to bring asif back into attack.

Asif is in bhai. Use cricbuzz for faster updates.

 

[Amjid Javed]

asif seems to be bowling 2 short aswell now.

Eng 108/1

 

[Amjid Javed]

asif bowling 2 straight to strauss, needs to be on off-stick and just outside.

 

[Salman]

England trail by 222..... Come on Nelson...

 

[Amjid Javed]

Eng 109/1

 

[iZeeshan]

Asif not threatening at all.

 

[Amjid Javed]

I think we should give hafeez ago with kaneria now.

dani making strauss look ordinary now!

 

[Amjid Javed]

3rd ball in row strauss plays and misses!

 

[Easa]

Strauss beaten 3 times in a row.

 

[Rob H]

The cut shot is a bit risky with the variable turn that Kaneria is getting. Working it to the on side is a better bet.

 

[iZeeshan]

Hafeez? How has he done in county?

 

[Amjid Javed]

make it 4 balls played and missed!

4 byes.

Eng 113/1

 

[Easa]

That beats everyone for byes.

 

[Salman]

4 byes..... Akmal missed it...

 

[Easa]

Strauss finally makes contact.

 

[iZeeshan]

Strauss is very lucky.

 

[Easa]

Given NOT OUT again.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Yet another pad & bat appeal. not given.

Eng 113/1

 

[Salman]

Good over from Dani...

 

[Billy]

Asif not threatening at all.

DOesn't really need to be with Kaneria having some rough to bowl into.

Just as long as he keeps it tight.

 

[Easa]

Poor Athers.

 

[iZeeshan]

Thats bs. THAT WAS OUT!

 

[iZeeshan]

DOesn't really need to be with Kaneria having some rough to bowl into.

Just as long as he keeps it tight.

He aint doin that either.

 

[Easa]

It was not out, Pepsi.

 

[iZeeshan]

It was not out, Pepsi.

I knew I should have added sarcasm code.

 

[Easa]

Asif comes wide of the crease, but well played.

 

[Salman]

Dani strikes...

 

[Easa]

Strauss out LBW!

 

[Rob H]

Looked lbw. I'd say good decision.

 

[UJ]

Kaneria

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

Danny boy finally get one !!

 

[iZeeshan]

Out!

 

[BroskiBeat]

poor decision

 

[iZeeshan]

Man that was SOME turn! And the bonus is that it is Strauss.
