4th Test, Day 4: Eng vs Pak updates

[BroskiBeat]

who is a worse fielder danish or monty?

 

[Usman Chadda]

If English batsmen want a certain four, keep hitting the ball to Dani

 

[iZeeshan]

who is a worse fielder danish or monty?

Danish easily. Monty is actually a pretty good one.

 

[UJ]

Poor Kaneria...ball is following him

 

[Usman Chadda]

who is a worse fielder danish or monty?

Dani hasnt dropped a catch yet

 

[BroskiBeat]

shot!

 

[Oxy]

bcz he's a wussy

Whats with all the digs at Pak in the last 10 mins?

 

[Usman Chadda]

Brilliant shot. Stand and admire stuff

 

[iZeeshan]

Lovely straight drive for 4.

 

[MIG]

Hi chaps - just have a few minutes between work today - just noticed that we are dropping ( catches) like hot potatos here ! whats happening ?

 

[Easa]

Superb on drive by Pietersen. What a shot.

 

[Purgatory]

Pietersen will be out soon. Higher s/r = high risk.

 

[Fessal]

damn that cook was out or should have been out four or five times. Damn

 

[Usman Chadda]

England 160/2

Superb counter-attack by the English!

 

[Easa]

Wussy for wearing headgear. )

What crap.

 

[iZeeshan]

Nothing going for seamers. I suggest Hafeez.

 

[Rob H]

There we go, attacking the spinner. Not timed, not middled, classic Pietersen.

 

[BroskiBeat]

mis timed for 4

 

[Easa]

That goes for 4 but nowhere near the middle of the stick.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Pietersen vs Kaneria

Pietersen takes the lead

 

[Oxy]

Wussy for wearing headgear. )

What crap.

Thats because these Amreekans play with tape ball - they just dont know the reality..........

 

[Easa]

KP nuts living dangerously here.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Pietersen moves onto 30 off 33 balls

 

[iZeeshan]

High in the air, 4 runs.

 

[iZeeshan]

Come on Faisal! Where's ur sleding?

 

[Purgatory]

Sounds like Pietersen got up on the wrong side of the bed today.

 

[UJ]

KP nuts living dangerously here.

why, isn't he wearing a hectare protector?

 

[Easa]

Thats because these Amreekans play with tape ball - they just dont know the reality..........

Exactly. My friend got hit on the face while not wearing headgear while keeping, he had 3 minor surgeries on his face. An some stiches.

 

[Usman Chadda]

No luck so far for Pakistan thanks to some poor umpiring and dropped catches

 

[Fessal]

Pakistan just aren't having any luck and then theres appalling catching by Faisal and disgusting umpiring by doctrove.

 

[Easa]

Dani vs Pietersen is a great battle.

 

[Rob H]

Botham can't criticise Pietersen and rightly so. The number of times he's tried to smash the spinners out the park and failed...

 

[BroskiBeat]

Pakistan just aren't having any luck and then theres appalling catching by Faisal and disgusting umpiring by doctrove.

well what about the strauss decision be fair

 

[Easa]

Bothams saying that Pietersen should play his natural game which is the way hes playing right now to take the game away from the opposition

 

[iZeeshan]

Our lead is coming off in chunks. Not good.

 

[Usman Chadda]

The only bowler looking threatening is Kaneria

 

[iZeeshan]

Draw.

 

[Easa]

well what about the strauss decision be fair

Doctrove and Hair have screwed us over the whole series.

 

[iZeeshan]

The only bowler looking threatening is Kaneria

And he's not even looking that threatenin now.

 

[Purgatory]

Still 5 sessions left in the game yet to call a draw.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Draw.

Too much time left in the test match (unless rain intervenes)

 

[Rob H]

Doctrove and Hair have screwed us over the whole series.

they've only umpired 2 tests though.

 

[BroskiBeat]

Doctrove and Hair have screwed us over the whole series.

i'll give you that!

 

[Usman Chadda]

And he's not even looking that threatenin now.

He is...

 

[Easa]

Draw.

Theres atleast 170 overs left in the game.

 

[Billy]

Draw.

Don't be daft!

England would need 650 or more for that.

 

[Purgatory]

Taufel made some bad calls at Lords too. Edges off Collingwood and Cook not given.

 

[Easa]

they've only umpired 2 tests though.

Yeah, well we were outplayed at OT fair and square but at Headingley we were screwed over, and it was a very important match for us/.

 

[garbage_can2003]

The main reason Pakistan are down 2-0 is because they have dropped too many catches. PERIOD.

 

[iZeeshan]

Don't be daft!

England would need 650 or more for that.

And they are going to get that. Even 600 would do.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Trail by 162 runs now

 

[Billy]

Taufel made some bad calls at Lords too. Edges off Collingwood and Cook not given.

Pakistan have had the worst of it over all but the umpires haven't been keen to give LBW's to anyone. It's just the edges that haven't been given really..

 

[Rob H]

short outside off stump take that. Don't bowl there to any batsmen.

 

[Billy]

And they are going to get that. Even 600 would do.

Nah.

Pietersen's not in for the long hall and Cook's not used to playing leggies out of the rough.

I'd be surprised if Pakistan had to chase more than 100 to win.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Kaneria trying a little harder against KP according to Rameez

 

[BroskiBeat]

4 more good strike rate from kp

 

[Rob H]

4 more. Bowling lollypops here Kaneria.

 

[iZeeshan]

Short and wide. 4 runs

 

[Usman Chadda]

KP moves to 42 in quick time

England 177/2

 

[Usman Chadda]

We are losing it now. Crap bowling mixed with crap catching

 

[Purgatory]

I'm sure the "KP goes nuts" description is apt here...

 

[iZeeshan]

4 more.

 

[BroskiBeat]

buffet bowling grab a plate and help yourself

 

[Pathan007]

do we still have a chance of winning this?

 

[Oxy]

Time for DAnish to do a Botham, and BUY a wicket.

 

[UJ]

8 minutes to lunch...we need to regroup!

 

[Oxy]

do we still have a chance of winning this?

5 sessions to go. Its a test match. Doesnt have to be over in one-day.

 

[Usman Chadda]

do we still have a chance of winning this?

Unless rain comes yes. England would need more than 600 to even challenge us

 

[Easa]

Of course.

 

[Pathan007]

well 600 is on board for England me thinks.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Good fielding by Faisal

 

[BroskiBeat]

well 600 is on board for England me thinks.

no chance! 400 all out more likely

 

[Purgatory]

When was the last time Cook scored a four?

 

[Rob H]

That was a terrible effort. Was that Gul down there?

 

[Easa]

Poor fielding/

 

[Usman Chadda]

Do we deserve to win? After all the crappy fielding and catching. Thats not how teams win matches

 

[Usman Chadda]

That was a terrible effort. Was that Gul down there?

Yes it was Gul

 

[Pathan007]

no chance! 400 all out more likely

me dun think so. 500 to say the least if not 600.

 

[Billy]

42.4 Kaneria to Pietersen, THAT'S OUT!, full delivery on off, Pietersen goes for the big slog sweep, falls over, hits the ball into his **** and can only watch as it rebounds out of the hands of Akmal and into the safety of Inzamam's beard. Kaneria tries to do a "chicken dance" celebration but only succeeds in elbowing Iqbal in the face as he trips over his own feet.

It's getting a bit farcial really..

 

[Easa]

Do we deserve to win? After all the crappy fielding and catching. Thats not how teams win matches

Yes. We have completely outplayed England so far.
