Clarke playing the ball on the move, Good candidate for a nick if the ball moves away late.

IMO, that's what it means in Western culture as well.

Thats what i am talking about. Moyo still is a pathetic captain. like somebody said "is baray main do raye ho hi nahi sakti"

Perhaps you are right that he's pathetic. However, that's a very subjective opinion about which reasonable people can indeed amicably differ.

For instance, I don't think he is pathetic; tactically, he is mostly below average and at times rises to 'average'. Off-field, he's mostly average and sometimes rises to 'good'. In aggregate, that makes him a huge improvement on his two predecessors, Younis and Shoaib Malik - most importantly, he's the ONLY option we have. Hence, pointless to go on and on and on and on and on about something that cannot be changed and is a fact of life, a bit like weather or "poor" umpiring from Koertzen ;-)
 
they should let aamer keep bowling, hes cleasrly on fire right now and got that adrenaline rush
 
They know Rauf is about to come on, so they're just blocking Asif.

One more from Aamer?
 
This behaviour by the Pakistanis is not on, they're beginning to lose the commentator's support. The kiss needs to stop, the referrals need to be decided quickly.
 
Fielding is so lively, you could actually mistake it for an Oz or Saffie team. Great stuff.

The commentators will support Pakistan only so long as Pakistan is losing you know.
 
Another corker from Aamer to end the over. Now I am starting to miss Wasim Akram as these deliveries are bringing back those great memories.

So why now?
Why can't they be this professional most of the time.
Obviously they are capable of it as we are seeing

It good thing the commentators aren't the ones deciding whether to give an appeal or not then.
 
This is the Pakistan I love to see. But this Pakistan only comes to play when they're down on the ground, with no chances of winning.. then out of the blue someone sparks brilliance with the ball or in the field. Then Pakistan just runs all over them.. sledging, diving while fielding, extremely fast bowling, etc.

The early Katich dismissal sparked this.
 
My goodness... how many overs are these two going to bowl?

This is Asif's 9th over.

Maybe so, but they mustn't resort to childish acts, the commies have made some valid points about the kisses and the level of self-control.
 
Might be time for Ajmal to start warming up and have a go at Watson

who cares about commentator's support. We are here to play and win matches not win friendships with commentators

They've developed a rhythm. They are going to keep going at it!

Needs a good leader to provide that spark, we have Moyo.

Disagree. These lads are ambassadors for their country, their image is our image.

Well there's not much that can be done at the moment...let's whine about something different for a change.
 
Too full from Asif, but nice to see the Pakistani fielders actually giving chase! Two of them as well! Our lucky day eh!
 
MoYo is looking for 1 more wicket from these 2. Once Rauf is brought on all pressure will be released. This has to be Asif's last

Unfortunately, due to the language barrier, these guys can only get their point across with such acts. Looks indecent, but they are effective. Certainly got Watson riled up
 
oh **** now we have teletubbies coming in to bowl, ajmal and rauf
