[UP]

Great players make you pay, as did Ponting here.

 

[Shezada]

44444444444444..LOl! way ta go pakistan

 

[Kriketer]

allright Ponting you got your form back now get out!!

 

[Juggernaut]

I actually feel sorry for the PCB. Even the good players in the team **** things up ala Aamer with the dropped catch.

Our team is just so rubbish.

Not one of them is an all round good cricketer.

 

[kingusama92]

Akmal practicing hard.

 

[UP]

Team is really down and out after Sydney debacle. They need to fresh up and start thinking about the ODI series.

 

[Shezada]

not sure why im still wasting my time watching this game...but im obliged to see how badly we do..

 

[ZAK]

Good to see :akmal working on his keeping.

 

[tauseefm]

Oyee hoyeeeeeeeee hoyeeeee

[tauseefm]

Gul is getting the beating of life here.. Ponting se ab kon bachaye ga?

 

[Shezada]

no ball and 4th 4 off the over... 18 off the over now.

 

[insaaniyat]

[Shezada]

170 run partnership..

 

[tauseefm]

Bravo to Serfaraz, he is actually telling moyo what to do

 

[Shezada]

that's ok we will make around 500 too

vs zimbabwe

 

[insaaniyat]

Gul is getting the beating of life here.. Ponting se ab kon bachaye ga?

ponting could declare you know

 

[kingusama92]

Phainty shots...

 

[UP]

not sure why im still wasting my time watching this game...but im obliged to see how badly we do..

I have not even watched a single delivery, came back from work when match started, checked the score and went outside. And I just returned home and not feeling interested to watch this match.

This is the first time I'm not watching Pakistan's match

 

[Ryankhan]

as long as we drop catches we wont win a single test match. very sad to see ponting got a chance n now he makin full use of it. im not watching this match just had the update to see whts goin on. this match is useless for us to watch.

 

[insaaniyat]

vs zimbabwe

wait for a double ton from our milkman

 

[Tapori]

Its not good to see your captain so languid and uninspiring in the field - If MoYo is playing the great thinker hes failing abysmally...

 

[ZAK]

getting a phainti from Ponting.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Salt in the wounds stuff now. Ponting looks imperious, could get a massive score and set up an innings win for aus.

 

[kingusama92]

Bravo to Serfaraz, he is actually telling moyo what to do

Bravo to Yousuf for giving youngsters the freedom to come up to him. Most skippers would tell them to keep it to themselves.

 

[Shezada]

wait for a double ton from our milkman

we had the same hopes 2nd test match but still lost lol. not from malik i mean, but just overall

 

[tauseefm]

Bravo to Yousuf for giving youngsters the freedom to come up to him. Most skippers would tell them to keep it to themselves.

"Merta kaya na kerta"

 

[namak]

Perhaps its not too early to start praying for rain

 

[insaaniyat]

Bravo to Yousuf for giving youngsters the freedom to come up to him. Most skippers would tell them to keep it to themselves.

Moyo doesn't have that option He listens to everyone

 

[kingusama92]

Perhaps its not too early to start praying for rain

Supposed to rain on Day 4 and 5.

 

[insaaniyat]

Supposed to rain on Day 4 and 5.

that will be too late yaar

 

[Desi]

Little enthusiasm by the fans, little enthusiasm by the players, aussies just dominating the **** out of us. Aamer limping off the field after dropping Ponting on 0. Pakistan cricket has seen much better days.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Gul where are the yorkers???

Waqar pull your finger out eh, one thing which we have not been trying are yorkers. Attacking cricket, yorkers, what else will this team forget about?

 

[kingusama92]

Gul back for some more phainty. Yousuf is ruthless.

 

[namak]

Supposed to rain on Day 4 and 5.

the way things are going, its probably better to watch rain on days 1, 2, 3, 4 AND 5

 

[ZAK]

Sarfraz is really doing a good job of keeping the guys motivated. Infact he's doing a better job of it than Kaptaan Sahib.

 

[WithLoveFromCanada]

insaaniyat kaisay ho bhai, apna jadoo chalao yaar

 

[Shezada]

3 runs......no point hoping to win now, lets just watch with a smile, and entertainment

 

[saj001]

umar laughing at yousuf fielding

 

[insaaniyat]

insaaniyat kaisay ho bhai, apna jadoo chalao yaar

ab tum aa gaye ho ab jadoo chale gaa. aaj aamir kaa jadoo chalaa for ponting's century

 

[WithLoveFromCanada]

ab tum aa gaye ho ab jadoo chale gaa. aaj aamir kaa jadoo chalaa for ponting's century

mene likha tha ponting will get out soon.

as soon as i wrote it, catch nikla ponting ka aur us dash ke bachay ne catch chor dia

 

[insaaniyat]

umar laughing at yousuf fielding

he was saying this is what you get for dropping my bro and i am not scoring any runs either

 

[namak]

So who believes that Clarke will choke in the 90s?

 

[tauseefm]

insaaniyat kaisay ho bhai, apna jadoo chalao yaar

Insaaniyat jado chalaye ya na chalaye Ponting "chittar" zaroor chalay ga

 

[insaaniyat]

mene likha tha ponting will get out soon.

as soon as i wrote it, catch nikla ponting ka aur us dash ke bachay ne catch chor dia

[insaaniyat]

Insaaniyat jado chalaye ya na chalaye Ponting "chittar" zaroor chalay ga

main ne tou apna jadoo box band kar diya

 

[faizpak]

sami should have played this test !

 

[insaaniyat]

sami should have played this test !

too late

 

[Gollum]

sami should have played this test !

We are missing the spark that Sami provided in the last test.

 

[Shezada]

So who believes that Clarke will choke in the 90s?

dont believe anything now. still expect a 500 total on the board

 

[insaaniyat]

major collapse coming australia 300 all out

 

[saamry]

Salt in the wounds stuff now. Ponting looks imperious, could get a massive score and set up an innings win for aus.

May be that is what needed for Pak.

 

[tauseefm]

sami should have played this test !

Yea we needed his 50+ avg experience here

 

[saj001]

major collapse coming australia 300 all out

) ) )

 

[Gollum]

major collapse coming australia 300 all out

Sadly not gonna happen EVER. They are not Pakistan.

 

[Shezada]

Yea we needed his 50+ avg experience here

it still woulda gotten us a wicket after 50 balls lol

 

[insaaniyat]

We are missing the spark that Sami provided in the last test.

spark was there. Aamir ne sab kharrab kar diya

 

[kingusama92]

So who believes that Clarke will choke in the 90s?

 

[wanabee]

aamir ki pithi chittar mar kar lal karni chahiye

 

[tauseefm]

major collapse coming australia 300 all out

If you are looking into future then its pakistan who is gona make 300(in both innings )

 

[OZGOD]

Good knock by Ponting. He was out of form but hung in there to score a ton when the team needed it. Same with Pup - out of form but just grafted his way through to support Dubya. That's one of the most important attributes for a batsman - to be able to hang in there when you're out of form.

 

[saamry]

We are missing the spark that Sami provided in the last test.

I am not sure Sami ever been properly managed by PCB. They brought Aamer back, but it seems that Aamer still is not 100% fit. And yes, we are missing Sami's aggression at the moment.

 

[Shezada]

we have to rely on experiments now for our batting lineup -khurram at no.3, malik, and the yet to debut in tests sarfraz

 

[insaaniyat]

it still woulda gotten us a wicket after 50 balls lol

may be 2 wickets. Moyo just doesn't know what to do

 

[tauseefm]

aamir ki pithi chittar mar kar lal karni chahiye

My teacher used to say in pakistan "Mar mar ker pithi bul bul ki pithi ki tarah lal ker doon ga" ) )

 

[insaaniyat]

we have to rely on experiments now for our batting lineup -khurram at no.3, malik, and the yet to debut in tests sarfraz

our batting lineup is verythreatening. we can get ourselves out under 150 anytime

 

[Gollum]

our batting lineup is verythreatening. we can get ourselves out under 150 anytime

 

[tauseefm]

Thats avg not the striking rate

YK could learn something

 

[OZGOD]

I think Sami is like Nathan Bracken - he's useless unless there are clouds overhead, moisture in the air and grass on the wicket. He looked unplayable in the first innings in Sydney but looked toothless in the second.

 

[Shezada]

all the bowlerss are back in form again...

 

[OZGOD]

Is there a way to mute Mark Nicholas but keep the other two commies? I wish we could do that.

 

[OZGOD]

YK could learn something

YK is pretty good at doing that, particularly in Tests where there's no pressure to constantly score. It's a lesson your other batsmen like Misbah, Iqbal et al could learn.

 

[tauseefm]

Is there a way to mute Mark Nicholas but keep the other two commies? I wish we could do that.

How about this?

 

[kingusama92]

How about this?

Wouldn't work.

The guy would find a way to talk with his stomach.

 

[Zechariah]

I meant his batting form..he needs to keep at it and he will get it right!

thats it, im going to sleep. cant stand this now
