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

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to be positive here, and play there shots. After today still 3 days , lots of cricket to be played. They need to make sure anything erred should be punished.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan trail by 283 runs with 9 wickets remaining in the 1st innings

 

[Poison]

Taufeeq on a 5-boundary 24

 

[Justcrazy]

Taufiq 25 not out, has got the start, now must make use of it and get a big ton.

 

[Justcrazy]

I do not not think full 90 overs would be possible on any day, Pakistan need to make sure they get runs quick.

 

[Justcrazy]

57 /1

 

[Areesh]

Pakistan needs to be a bit positive here. Too much tuk tuking by Pakistan.

 

[AZ]

what tuk tuking? they are hitting fours and rotating strike quite well.

 

[TheHK16]

this is how taufeeq should bat sr of 64

 

[Areesh]

what tuk tuking? they are hitting fours and rotating strike quite well.

Haan ab thora behtar hua hai.

 

[talha3]

Shaaat of the day!

 

[AZ]

Boom Boom Taufeeq!

 

[TheHK16]

lovely drive

 

[Strike!]

Taufeeq is scoring at a good strike rate.

 

[Areesh]

Good work by the boys and particularly taufeeq.

Amazing how things can change in 9 minutes.

Ijaz butt style u turn

 

[JibranAnsari]

Azhar Ali , Asad shafiq and Taufeeq are seriously weak against spin bowling. Panesar and Swann are going to have a ball.

 

[talha3]

Need to score at a higher run rate off the spinners.

 

[*syed59*]

Taufeeq can't even play the cut shot against spinners with timing.

 

[Asif321]

PPL have slept

 

[*syed59*]

Azhar Ali , Asad shafiq and Taufeeq are seriously weak against spin bowling. Panesar and Swann are going to have a ball.

Talking abt tests , I disagree. They "seem" to struggle but IMO they can defend well enough and if they are confident enough(particular in case of Shafiq as he lacks it a bit) can attack 'em as well.

 

[talha3]

These two can block against spinners but can't rotate strike comfortably against them.

 

[IAJ]

Azhar Ali is such a poor player of spin. Facing so many spinners in domestic cricket you would think he was comfortable against spin but that's not the case. Needs to work on this before playing Swann.

 

[Asif321]

Playing for Draw ! soo series will end 1-0

 

[*syed59*]

that single Tafueeq has taken now, could and should have taken every short ball this bowler has bowled to him from this end.

 

[Areesh]

The commies are talking about sari.

 

[IAJ]

Playing for Draw ! soo series will end 1-0

Nope there are 3 more days to come. If Pakistan bat another 1.5 days and get 200+ lead they will bowl out Bangladesh on the fifth day InshaAllah

 

[cricfan4ever]

what the hell? end of play already

match is headed for a draw for sure now with this sort of shortage through 2 days already

 

[IAJ]

Seems like it's stump though not officially

 

[Areesh]

It's end of the day. 87 for 1 Pakistan.

 

[cricfan4ever]

what a crappy day...this match has been a farce so far...might as well end the series...

 

[sawal]

They need to score above 4 rpo tomorrow otherwise it will be a draw

 

[cricfan4ever]

They need to score above 4 rpo tomorrow otherwise it will be a draw

doubt we'll do that...being already up 1-0 don't see pushing for a win

so the onus is on Bangladesh really...personally I'd like for Pakistan to push for a win

 

[Areesh]

Draw is still difficult. I won't be surprised if BD team would be all out around 100 runs in second innings. This is how BD cricket works.

 

[AZ]

how the heck can anyone suggest it will be a draw at the end of Day 2?

 

[Asif321]

its end of day stupied Bngs

 

[sawal]

how the heck can anyone suggest it will be a draw at the end of Day 2?

Because of bangladesh and misbah mentality.
