Moyo Bolt in the field....

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Moyo chasing and runs away from him for 4

50 up for Aussies!

 

[saj001]

Come on yousuf , you can run bit faster

 

[IAJ]

what a poor fielding by the captain huh

 

[Afridi_Fan]

50 partnership.

 

[saj001]

Moyo Bolt in the field....

 

[Gollum]

MoYo escorts the ball to the boundary!

 

[Cover Drive]

Nice chase by MoYo but in vain

 

[Liverpool_Faizan]

hmmmmm

yousuf shud have stopped that i reckon.

 

[Saj]

I think its going to be a long hot day in the field for Pakistan today and a long and frustrating night for me watching this.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Good delivery again,cutting back in but 4 to Watson

 

[*sallu*]

Nice chase by MoYo but in vain

I sincerely hope that was sarcasm

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Wristy by Katich for 3

 

[iafzal]

super fit Moyo cannot chase down the ball. Should have dived or somthing to set an example for the team but . . .

 

[Afridi_Fan]

3 to Katich

 

[adeem_as]

Hope Aussies make 400 for no loss. Why Rauf.

 

[rhussain33]

We needed 5 bowlers... A gud all rounder. This is gonna take its toll on aamer n asif. Darn we culd have dun wv afridi right now. Il be v dissapointed if i dont see farhat bowl.

 

[d0gers]

[QUOTE?=Oxy]Its Faisal Iqbal [/QUOTE]thanks. and who's the "Aha ha ha" guy

 

[Cover Drive]

This pitch is even flatter than Indian pitches

 

[Oxy]

Hope Aussies make 400 for no loss. Why Rauf.

Thanks for your support

 

[octavian]

last 3 balls = 9 runs

 

[OZGOD]

Who's this Rauf bloke? Is he any good?

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

now Katich looking very comfortable

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Hope Aussies make 400 for no loss. Why Rauf.

Itna pyar acha nahi hota

 

[shabbu1]

Singles and twos being given out like freebies

 

[Afridi_Fan]

500?

 

[Gollum]

Hope Aussies make 400 for no loss. Why Rauf.

I don't see a wicket on the horizon. The second line of attack just doesn't look threatening.

 

[octavian]

last 4 balls = 11 runs

 

[Zaid23]

what the _____ Up line is saeed ajmal is bowling

 

[tauseefm]

This pitch is even flatter than Indian pitches

[TaZ]

Ajmal is bowling like a man with no confidence at all

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Thanks for your support

[Deewana Mastana]

Who's this Rauf bloke? Is he any good?

According to some pper's he's a trundler - So far going at 4 per over in his 4 overs bowled as of yet!

Overall career in FC has 467 wickets in 102 matches.

 

[*sallu*]

Who's this Rauf bloke? Is he any good?

What do you think from what you've seen?
We have better fast bowlers in Street cricket in pakistan

 

[Liverpool_Faizan]

Who's this Rauf bloke? Is he any good?

he is the pakistani version of nathan bracken

 

[saj001]

Crap bowling by ajmal

 

[iafzal]

He got lucky in NZ...in every innings he scored...he came out swinging like there was no tomorrow...only for Kiwis to give him a chance or two every time...unfortunately the aussies won't be so generous...

I agree a few of his innings were just not as patient as you would like him t be but he is young and sadly Moyo does not want to reign him in.

We will soon find out how he does here in this tour,

 

[Gollum]

Ajmal is bowling like a man with no confidence at all

I was just thinking that. He looks like a man drafted in at the last moment.

 

[octavian]

Who's this Rauf bloke? Is he any good?

now watch the the guys lay into him just so he can pick a couple of wickets.

But no he is no good.

 

[insaaniyat]

Ajmal is looking very ordinary combined with bad fielding

 

[amarmak]

Hope Aussies make 400 for no loss. Why Rauf.

shut up dude...

 

[Cover Drive]

Watson scoring his maiden ton

 

[rhussain33]

Saj, u may as well go to sleep n check the scores when u wake up in the morning for the boxing day sales

 

[Liverpool_Faizan]

I was just thinking that. He looks like a man drafted in at the last moment.

well.....that IS what happened....

 

[iafzal]

he is the pakistani version of nathan bracken

I think he is more of bowling version of Mansoor Akhtar. Performs well in side and domestic cricket but on the big stage fails to deliver.

To be fair he has not played enough match to call him failure. Let us see how he does here.

 

[insaaniyat]

now watch the the guys lay into him just so he can pick a couple of wickets.

But no he is no good.

Rauf will take a wicket before lunch

 

[Cover Drive]

Ajmal is looking very ordinary combined with bad fielding

We just hired a fielding coach :younis

 

[Zedman]

Yes Aamer was unlucky for the drop. But other then that........it's been a stroll in the park. Rauf and Ajmal are looking embarrasing. A seriously one sided innings to follow.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

RR gone upto over 3 now which at one stage was just over 1 in the first 7 overs!

 

[Gollum]

well.....that IS what happened....

Really? I missed the first 20 minutes thanks to Willow...

 

[taaveez]

Watson may be headed back soon

Afzal Bhai give him a chance, he doesn't look that bad to be honest

I ain't watching mate. I'm at an airport waiting for my flight to board

 

[Cover Drive]

I have a feeling that we will reverse swing the balll like maddddddddd

 

[Gollum]

Can't wait to see Asif vs Ponting! But I don't see my wish coming true any time soon.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I ain't watching mate. I'm at an airport waiting for my flight to board

Oz mate, I responded back to your Rauf querry above - #914 to be precise!

 

[abdulqadir786]

does Australia have any reviews left!

 

[tauseefm]

I have a feeling that we will reverse swing the balll like maddddddddd

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Wattoo taking the game away here 4 runs

 

[iafzal]

couple of good balls by AR

 

[Cover Drive]

Nice shot for 4

 

[Gollum]

I have a feeling that we will reverse swing the balll like maddddddddd

We don't have the best exponent of reverse swing playing in this game

 

[*syed59*]

the lack of 5th seamer option might hurt us big time. This pitch is super flat. Had something early one but thnks to U akmal, we couldnt even get Ponting in early.

 

[Big Mac]

Watson may be headed back soon

Heading back to enjoy his lunch at 70*?

 

[Cover Drive]

Dont worry we have got :aamir :rauf

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Well fielded at backward point by Asif

 

[iafzal]

match is going as expected as of now.
Phaintee to be dissed out to us

 

[sali]

We are continuing from where we left off in NZ. All the anticipation and back to PHENTY again.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

I've just switched to an Amitabh movie, where he has just killed a guy with his bare hands.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Well bowled Ajjoo!!

 

[Gollum]

Really doesn't matter if we have another bowler of the quality of Rauf or Ajmal (the way he is bowling right now).

 

[iafzal]

Asif fielding at point, great

 

[Oxy]

does Australia have any reviews left!

Unless theyve been reviewing our fielding & catches, I think they have 2...

 

[tauseefm]

Dont worry we have got :aamir :rauf

But the only guy who is good at reverse swing is

 

[ahmed16]

This attack is not good enough to bowl to the Australians, Ajmal is not a test level bowler, he gets wickets in ODIs because of his marvelous economy rate, in tests though he does not have the pedigree, hes no Muralia, or for that matter, Harbhajan.

Rauf has only height in his favour, has potential but his action will let him down, shows the ball to the batsman before he bowls it.

Mohammad Amer has too many expectations on him.....

Asif is perhaps the only one with the experience to cause problems for Australia

I hope there was no politics in Kanerias omission, he looked like he was about to cry when they showed him.

I would have preferred Sami over either Ajmal, Rauf.

Gul is not playing? Mistake?

 

[Hooked _for_6]

Why Why Why didn't we play Sami?????????????

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I've just switched to an Amitabh movie, where he has just killed a guy with his bare hands.

Wah Wah - Paisa vasool ho gaya na?!

 

[taaveez]

Heading back to enjoy his lunch at 70*?

Naah, starting to give too many opportunities all of sudden

 

[Oxy]

Was it a triple or quadruple role?
