Bangladesh v Pakistan | 2nd Test | Dhaka | 17-21/12/11 | Day 2

[Fawad2010]

338/9

 

[IAJ]

So maybe Holding is right after all; Pakistan will struggle to take 20 wickets against England? Let's wait and see.

[talha3]

All out for 338.

Ajmal finishes with 2 wickets.

 

[Fawad2010]

338 all-out

Poor effort overall by our bowlers

doesnt pakistan have a good record in the UAE?

 

[Fawad2010]

Around 50 overs left for the day, we should get to around 180 by stumps

 

[cricfan4ever]

should look to bat till lunch on Day 4 now, get a lead of 250+ and declare...5 sessions should be enough to get 10 Bangla wickets

 

[Statsman]

The two run outs were criminal on Bangladesh's part. But well played by them, albeit on a flat track. Atleast the game might get competitive now.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

PAK NEED DANNY BOY NEED GOOD LEGGIE. but misbAh must be kicked in the bak. for not batting 1st. but mind u pak have won most of the time he hAs bowl first.

 

[cricfan4ever]

must say after having Bangla 43/4 we really let it slip...though full credit to Shehryar, Shakib and Mushfiqur for putting up a fight, but I feel we lacked the X-factor & intensity in this innings of our bowling...

 

[talha3]

48 overs for Pakistan to bat today.

Need to aim for 200.

that's being overly optimistic with and in top 3...150 would be an achievement I'd say! ideally yes 200 would be great but for that we'd need Hafeez to be aggressive throughout and impose himself...

 

[Asif321]

Pakistan need to score fast here .... otherwise match gone

 

[Walid from Bangladesh]

Play starting. Get the openers out!

True. But remember last time when they had 30ish overs to bat they got to 130 for no loss.

Here they go...

No!

true and that was mostly due to

we got 132/0 in 38 overs in 1st test...

 

[Fawad2010]

Here we go!

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need 500 in the first innings

 

[Justcrazy]

I think Bangladesh would collapse in the second innings.

 

[TV Umpire]

Pakistan need 500 in the first innings

More if possible.

 

[TV Umpire]

:4

 

[Justcrazy]

If Pakistan bat till stumps day 3, they would get a handy lead and then have ample time to get BD all out.

 

[TV Umpire]

BD bowler threatens to throw the ball at Hafeez

 

[Justcrazy]

:4 Hafeez has started from where he left in the first innings.

 

[Justcrazy]

How is the light? How many overs possible for the day???

 

[Fawad2010]

 

[IAJ]

What kind of action is that?

 

[Fawad2010]

I hope Taufeeq doesn't play too slow

 

[Fawad2010]

What kind of action is that?

club-level

 

[12cavalry]

The umpire seems to be asleep. The bowler is murdering the pitch with his follow through.

this guy is moving up in the list of my most-hated-umps

 

[Fawad2010]

 

[talha3]

That's better. Pulling with authority.

 

[Fawad2010]

and again

 

[Fawad2010]

Shahadat Sherapova Hossain

 

[Fawad2010]

smashed through cover

 

[Fawad2010]

1000 runs up for Hafeez/Taufeeq opening partnership.

in 14 matches

 

[talha3]

Nice intent from the openers.

RR 6

 

[IAJ]

I thought Umar and Hafeez were slow, but these two commentators are even slower. You really can't have them commentating together.

 

[talha3]

Hafeez gone

 

[IAJ]

 

[Fawad2010]

ahh



Hafeez

 

[Fawad2010]

ahh



Hafeez

 

[talha3]

There goes our chances of maintaining a run rate of above 4.

 

[sawal]

Now azhar ali, the most over rated tuk tuk machine

 

[Fawad2010]

There goes our chances of maintaining a run rate of above 4.

+1

Just hope we get to 500 by tmrw at stumps

 

[AZ]

Hafeez back to his usual self.

 

[Mobashir]

Azhar Ali batting at the amazing strike rate of 200!

 

[cricfan4ever]

There goes our chances of maintaining a run rate of above 4.

told you brother

Hafeez is key to good RR otherwise our top order is utterly defensive & lethargic...

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan should just play the ball on merit, no need to get extra cautious here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Robiul averaging 94.00 with ball

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

 

[Justcrazy]

:4 :umar

 

[IAJ]

I can't believe we don't have any better opener than Taufeeq. He is really a walking wicket, just gets lucky runs

 

[Justcrazy]

36 /1

 

[Justcrazy]

[Fawad2010]

Tea on Day 2

PK still 302 runs behind

 

[Justcrazy]

Its Tea. Pakistan 36 /1

 

[Justcrazy]

Nazmul to start the proceedings here

 

[Justcrazy]

Interesting session ahead, Pakistan would be looking to bring the trail down, BD would be looking for a couple of wickets to apply pressure on the Pakistan Team.

 

[Justcrazy]

:4 that is exactly what Pakistan need.

 

[Justcrazy]

ufiq on 15

 

[AZ]

its

Azhar Ali has started well here

 

[Justcrazy]

Robiul 96.00 average with the ball

 

[Mobashir]

Bangladesh have been Tarapored once again!

 

[talha3]

that was very close. unlucky bangladesh

 

[Mobashir]

that was very close. unlucky bangladesh

If UDRS, Azhar would have been back in the pavillion, finishing his cup of tea.

 

[Equinox]

 

[Justcrazy]

BD testing the batsman here, some good stuff from them here.

 

[IAJ]

Really good bowling here and as I type this he has bowled a poor ball, gone for four

 

[Justcrazy]

 

[Justcrazy]

50 up

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 28 runs

 

[JibranAnsari]

going to be a draw , i suspect.

 

[Justcrazy]

Robiul 97.33 average now , with ball.

 

[Justcrazy]

going to be a draw , i suspect.

I think Bangla would collapse in the second innings
