[Oxy]

How minutes to tea?

 

[insaaniyat]

Thank god Ind v SL is on the 'red button'!

that series is boring anyway

 

[mohsinr12]

FAisal Iqbal 'has a rare talent' - Mark Nicholas!!! ) ) )

Who prepares their notes???

He does its called UNCLE JAVED MIANDAD ) ) )

 

[Momo]

I respect my fellow supporter's enthusiasm but I don't think he will need to do more than 30 push ups today.

 

[KA$H]

13 more overs to see off

good looking drive cut off

 

[Lodhiz]

Does anyone else think Bollinger looks funny? Like one of those characters in those movies that's fat and has a funny face?

Yes, I was thinking the exact same thing. I just didn't want to sound rude but since it's out in the open; his face irritates me, very much.

 

[TalhaSyed]

nice drive down the ground...Butt just needs to make sure he holds his ground

 

[ali_ed2006]

How minutes to tea?

about 30 minutes

 

[insaaniyat]

I respect my fellow supporter's enthusiasm but I don't think he will need to do more than 30 push ups today.

you will have to eat your words

 

[mohsinr12]

Miandad said stop thinking of captaincy just perform..I hope he wasnt talking about faisal

 

[Big Mac]

FAisal Iqbal 'has a rare talent' - Mark Nicholas!!! ) ) )

Who prepares their notes???

What's funny about that comment? Faisal has talent, it just shows itself very rarely

 

[Inswinger]

The Kiwi commentators were good fun to listen to, yes they didn't hide the fact they wanted New Zealand to win but they were quick to praise Pakistani players when they did something right. Have you forgotten how crazy they went over Umar Akmal?

But almost everything we got was from the Kiwi point of view. The Aussie commies have done a better job giving us things from the Pakistani point of view even though no Pakistani commie is present.

 

[TalhaSyed]

How minutes to tea?

31

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

two runs to Farhat.

 

[ali_ed2006]

I can't believe our openers have added 17 runs against Australia

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Pak 17/0.

So far so good. Let's hope we can make it to tea without losing any wickets.

 

[KA$H]

I respect my fellow supporter's enthusiasm but I don't think he will need to do more than 30 push ups today.

work hard, play hard, spectate hard is my motto

(i'll do chin ups when we loose wkts)

 

[TalhaSyed]

Ozzy's trying to exploist Paks weakness agains the short ball but so far apart from the nice lil bruise Farhat will e wearing on his arm/chest mashallah the openers have dealt with it well

 

[Usman Chadda]

Wow. This pitch is dead. The only thing going for it is the bounce and carry, otherwise it has absolutely nothing in it for the bowlers

 

[Momo]

also, yousuf mentally strong ) )

 

[azfar wali]

CBN started showing India vs Sl issed:

 

[saj001]

Wow Aussie PM in commentary box , boy they love there cricket

 

[insaaniyat]

I can't believe our openers have added 17 runs against Australia

just keep watching I believe in them and the rest of pp'ers here I hope

 

[Momo]

you will have to eat your words

I hope I do.

 

[kingusama92]

couldn't stop laughing when I heard him say that ) )

also, yousuf mentally strong ) )

With the bat Mohammad Yousuf is certainly mentally very strong. He has led us through some brilliant chases alongside Inzi in ODIs.

Although ) ) ) @ the Faisal comment.

 

[Inswinger]

What's up with the PMs in the box? First the Kiwis and now the Aussies

 

[ali_ed2006]

Wow. This pitch is dead. The only thing going for it is the bounce and carry, otherwise it has absolutely nothing in it for the bowlers

But bounce is our biggest problem.

 

[insaaniyat]

Wow Aussie PM in commentary box , boy they love there cricket

Pakistan getting some exposure, that;s good for our cricket. We need to do good

 

[Big Mac]

But almost everything we got was from the Kiwi point of view. The Aussie commies have done a better job giving us things from the Pakistani point of view even though no Pakistani commie is present.

We know what the Pakistan view is:

"WE'RE THE BEST TEAM WE HAVE THE BEST ATTACK oh no we lost....SACK THE CAPTAIN SACK THE BATSMEN SACK THE COACH SACK THE SELECTORS"

I want to listen to the Pakistani view as much as I want to listen to Mark Nicholas.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Our batsmen should definitely be shot if they collapse on this pitch

 

[Lodhiz]

Wow. This pitch is dead. The only thing going for it is the bounce and carry, otherwise it has absolutely nothing in it for the bowlers

Thats a point I made earlier. This pitch has jack for the bowlers, so I wouldn't be too discouraged by the earlier performance by our bowlers.

 

[Momo]

work hard, play hard, spectate hard is my motto

(i'll do chin ups when we loose wkts)

That's the spirit!

 

[daghetto]

i was gone for most of the play, why did aussies declare??

 

[mohsinr12]

If these two give us decent start in australia through out the series then they deserve to hold on to the opening slots for a long time. We have tried too many combination...I think this is the best we have...I feel bad for butt espeically....If he had gotten more chances to play in the subcontinent like the indians do.. he would have had a much better average...I think he has the determination and hunger to be a good test player

 

[tauseefm]

Ok guys its not funny anymore, give me a link or i will pray for aus to win

Stupid CBN is showing indian match

 

[haseebbabar]

[ali_ed2006]

[KA$H]

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Hauritz into the attack.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Hauritz into the attack

 

[Inswinger]

Sky Sports giving the Indian match a look in.

 

[TalhaSyed]

Off topic: Anyone else remember"Pushpakamara steeeeaming in!" from one of the older Brian Lara games i think

 

[Lodhiz]

Hauritz coming on. Please destroy him.

 

[uzy99]

I thought you were done with Pakistani cricket.

man, Aussie batting was just too hard to take at the time. I was hoping our bowlers would've done better

 

[KA$H]

everyone rememberring Guptill right now

 

[haseebbabar]

lol n zardai (its cricket young lady no politics) imagine ( altaf husain asssssssssaaaaaaalllllllaaaaaam alaikum )

 

[saj001]

[iZeeshan]

I'm scared. We make random spinners look world class

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

2 runs..

 

[mnoman15]

These commentators are talking about every thing but this match ...

 

[TalhaSyed]

Farhat looking to put Hauritz on the back foot early. My next post will be my 500th inshallah so hopefully its gonna be after a 4 or 6

 

[Usman Chadda]

Farhat pulls, rather meekly, towards deep square leg for two runs

 

[Looney]

Wow Aussie PM in commentary box , boy they love there cricket

So do Pakistanis but we would never allow our PM in commentary box .

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

In other news, Sri Lanka lose a wicket on the first ball of the fifth odi.

 

[uzy99]

0.1


Khan to Tharanga, OUT, bowled em! What a terrific start for Zaheer, who pitches the ball up to Tharanga and seams the ball back in from around outside off stump, beats a loose forward push, and clips the top of middle


WU Tharanga b Khan 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Johnson into the attack ..

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Good start so far.

 

[Lodhiz]

Johnson in. Ponting pulling all the punches now.

Oh, I missed most of the WI Vs. Aus series. How did Johnson perform in that series?

 

[daghetto]

So do Pakistanis but we would never allow our PM in commentary box .

thats cause our PM might start accusing us of match fixing if we begin to lose

 

[Inswinger]

Time for a break.

Chak kay rakho munadayo!

 

[Oxy]

What's funny about that comment? Faisal has talent, it just shows itself very rarely

Please keep this garbage out this class thread!

 

[WithLoveFromCanada]

[Lodhiz]

The PM (Aussie) has some sense of humour.

Not something you see everyday in a Politician.
