Australia v Pakistan | 2nd Test - Day 4 | SCG | 6/01/10 [Pak need 176 to win]

My first time starting a match thread.

Just about 4 hours to go now.


Hopefully get the last 2 wickets within 5/10 overs then bat

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Ok, request to Mods. Let this guy have his 1st thread because he is attempting to do that from Day 2 of this very test.

 

[tdigi]

The Pak bulldozer is ready to run the roos over.....

 

[filosofee]

I wondered where this thread was!

Happy twenty-ten everyone

What a fantastic start to the new year Pakistan have given their fans, not seen a moment's play, unfortunately, how's it been? Oh, I can read through the thread and relive the day.

Let's hope we bowl out the last two Aus - though they'll go down fighting to make it to a 150 lead, no doubt, and we score the runs losing no more than five wickets. What a match result that would be for the Test-inexperienced Pakistan team

 

[Oxy]

No rain!

 

[saj001]

Bring it on

 

[itduzz]

I am so nervous right now

 

[bobwoolmersarmy]

I am so nervous right now

your not the only one

 

[Khabri420]

I am so nervous right now

How is that possible? The KING of PP nervous?

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Is today an early start like the last 2 days?

 

[cricketpassion]

1 hour 15 minutes to go cant wait

 

[iHammad]

Oxy, get ready to change your signature!

 

[waqar_ahmad]

Is the match starting early again?

 

[On_the_up]

Hope we start on time and get them all out with the lead below 120.

 

[On_the_up]

Is the match starting early again?

11pm GMT

in 70 mins time

 

[Khabri420]

Is today an early start like the last 2 days?

Should be, but with the match probably ending today you never know.

 

[Khabri420]

What's the news on Kaneria, is he ok?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Oxy! I'm still waiting on your decision.

 

[Lethal]

InshaALLAH Pakistan can wrap this up and win the match.

 

[cricfan967]

currently partly cloudy!

 

[TaZ]

Live weather update from my mate in sydney. "Mid-level cloud but warm and humid; doubt we'll see any rain today.* Ball should swing though before the could burns off."

 

[nosferatu372]

on my way to the game guys. extremely nervous and hoping we dont have to chase anything over a 100

 

[waqar_ahmad]

11pm GMT

in 70 mins time

thanks. SO the same time as yesterday. I hope we win in the first session at most

 

[nosferatu372]

if the game ends first session we win for sure.

 

[iHammad]

 

[Inswinger]

A lot of nervous energy hovering around PP today. Come on boys, get this one for the fans!

 

[Sufian84]

any chance of ponting declaring overnigt?

 

[JeeraBlade]

I hope Kaneria beats up Kamran Crapmal and injures him enough to have either Faisal, Butt, Misbah or Farhat keep the wickets until we win the test? They can't do worse than Mr. Crapmal!

 

[future doctor]

aasalam-u-alaikum to all PP member, eager to watch the play, may pak finish this before lunch. we need only 2 wickets in early 15 minutes and win is ours INSHAALLAH. we will make history today INSHAALLAH.

 

[ZAK]

You'll need to find a better keeper to get crapmal out of the team jeera, i am referring to your sig.

 

[sohaib17]

this prolly the nervousest (if there is a word like that) day of my life after the one i had when i was writting my first year University exam ..

lol ... i m trying to keep myself busy ...i even had dreams about Hussey and siddle scoring around 80 runs and another collapse

but i saw that during the night .. which ppl say is not usually true

 

[ZAK]

I am hoping that our openers will give us yet another good start, once Pakistan's innings gets under way.

 

[Khabri420]

get them out early and come out and play aggressively

 

[90MPH]

We will wrap this match before lunch, Inshallah.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

aasalam-u-alaikum to all PP member, eager to watch the play, may pak finish this before lunch. we need only 2 wickets in early 15 minutes and win is ours INSHAALLAH. we will make history today INSHAALLAH.

[Afridi_Fan]

hope kaneria gets a 5 wicket hall :

Hope it doesn't come down to Kaneria. issed:

 

[*syed59*]

I remember we have the new ball right now. Eager to see how we bowl first up.

 

[future doctor]

afridi-fan, how do u feel . we will make this INSHAALLAH

 

[SpiritOf1903]

hope kaneria gets a 5 wicket hall :

i'd rather Gul delivers two Waqaresque toe crushers to get his fifer. danish has been very costly this match with his pastry fingers in the field.

 

[cricpk]

today is pakistans day and history will be made..........pakistan zinda baad....paa inda baad

 

[Afridi_Fan]

afridi-fan, how do u feel . we will make this INSHAALLAH

How I'm feeling?

Well this can be described as nervously excited?

 

[karachiite]

What time is the game starting?

 

[iHammad]

14 minutes.

 

[Rizie]

bismillah

 

[saj001]

Bismillah karo bhaiyo aur behno

 

[SpiritOf1903]

the Urdu-english hybrid of Aamir Sohail is truly a delight . . what better way to brush up on the mother-tongue . .

 

[161]

hope kaneria gets a 5 wicket hall :

MoYo took the new ball last night.

Don't think that was a very good idea !

 

[saj001]

Switches on Sky Sports

 

[future doctor]

i want to make this day special, because my exams will start in feb , that's why i am not able to follow cricket anymore. hopefully our boys give me reason to celebrate INSHAALLAH

 

[On_the_up]

MoYo took the new ball last night.

Don't think that was a very good idea !

With Kaneria going off the field, he didn't have much choice.

 

[Sohaib-789]

5 minutes leftt

 

[cricfan967]

Still no coverage from CBN?

 

[Sohaib-789]

siddle has scored a 1st class 50 before

 

[octavian]

Is Kaneria ok?

 

[161]

With Kaneria going off the field, he didn't have much choice.

There were only a few overs left ... Mayo should have been thinking about the morning session.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

siddle has scored a 1st class 50 before

he's quite a handy bat; Ave: 15 HS: 35

 

[cricfan967]

Its a bit gloomy but nothing threatening guys!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Come on boys, lets get after Hussey and get him out ASAP!!!

We got to attack these 2 now!

 

[future doctor]

siddle has scored a 1st class 50 before

this time he is against a quality bowling side

 

[cricfan967]

It's going to be a bit harder to bat.

 

[saj001]

Asif to start

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Asif to start off the bowling!

 

[Genghis]

Could be a very special day today ... lets hope there aren't any surprises!

 

[Sohaib-789]

ready 4 the start

 

[cricfan967]

dot ball by as if

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Kaneria is on the field

Thats a good thing!

 

[SpiritOf1903]

C'MON! Bismillah!

 

[cricfan967]

Wow 120 CERTAINLY will apparently give Aussies a chance

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Just 2 slips for Hussey

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Chappel having a go at Moyo's captaincy, field settings!

 

[saj001]

Kanerias Alright

 

[saj001]

2 balls left , moyo bring the field in
