Day 2 thread

 

[jog_1]

If Bangladesh put up 400+, this test will result in a draw.

Pakistan need to get them all out under 350.

 

[Justcrazy]

Big session coming up

 

[Neferpitou]

If Bangladesh put up 400+, this test will result in a draw.

Pakistan need to get them all out under 350.

Or........Pakistan will crumble to left-arm spin once again.

 

[Slog]

Need to wrap it up in this session to have a chance of a win

Problem is the wickets are flat but when out batting decides to collapse the opposition bowlers and conditions become irrelevant so we cant afford that and need to keep them uder 330 i feel

 

[Kianig89]

Need to restrict Bangla to 350

 

[Justcrazy]

to start the proceedings

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Very important we take out BD for 350 before end of tea.

By end of day Pak should have runs on board.

 

[Zeshan547]

Good start by Wahabi

 

[Zeshan547]

Riaz the so called "spray gun" with economy of 2 after 21 overs. How is it possible?

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Zulfi is best spinner in the country like I said.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Where is everybody? Wicket just went down, mubarak ho.

 

[Professor]

Good bowling by Babar and a good catch by Shafiq. He is one of our few decent fielders.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need at least couple of more wickets before lunch

 

[iHammad]

C'mon wahab

 

[honeybadger]

Get Mushfiqur out and rest will follow.

 

[I Believe in the Teesra]

Asad Shafiq's fielding.

It

..

Makes

Me Happy.

 

[Justcrazy]

Slow batting may cost Bangla this game

 

[Random Aussie]

Come on boys, get 350

 

[honeybadger]

I love how Zulfiqars appeals are somewhere between evil laughter and wailing.

 

[iHammad]

Mushfiqar cover drives for four

 

[Zohaib Shah]

Asad Shafiq's fielding.

It

..

Makes

Me Happy.

I am glad Asad makes someone happy. Because he makes me angry.

 

[iHammad]

Wow, in the air and lands safely ...Soumya living dangerously

 

[honeybadger]

Yasir replaces Wahab. I would've liked Wahab to give some chin music to Mushfiqur and see if he'd bite.

 

[Justcrazy]

Two spinners bowling in tandem

 

[Stallion__]

Need a silly point for Yasir..

 

[Zohaib Shah]

Good display of leg spin bowling.

 

[Stallion__]

Does anyone plays slog sweep better than Mushfiq?

 

[Zohaib Shah]

Fantastic bowl!

 

[Zohaib Shah]

Does anyone plays slog sweep better than Mushfiq?

Boom boom Afridi ?

 

[Belawal2014]

I am glad Asad makes someone happy. Because he makes me angry.

It's a mental thing with Asad, otherwise he's a good player.

 

[Belawal2014]

Does anyone plays slog sweep better than Mushfiq?

Sarfaraz?

 

[iHammad]

Yasir Messi bowling well

 

[Stallion__]

Boom boom Afridi ?

Big NO

 

[Zohaib Shah]

It's a mental thing with Asad, otherwise he's a good player.

Never really saw much in him. I only like his leg side shots.

 

[Stallion__]

Sarfaraz?

Sarfraz sweep is overrated. Have seen him getting out on it few times as well. Last time in this ODI series.

 

[Zohaib Shah]

This may sound like a silly question. But why do batsmen always block in Tests?

 

[Shafi]

Sarker looks like a great player and can score debut 100

 

[Shafi]

Lets see if our bowlers can all out Bangladesh team

 

[Shafi]

If Junaid is not bowling why bother playing him in the eleven.

 

[iHammad]

Yasir please stop bowling on leg stump

 

[Zohaib Shah]

If Junaid is not bowling why bother playing him in the eleven.

Is he injured?

 

[desi_launda]

Bangladesh has completely lost the plot due to negative cricket.

 

[chill79]

We should have a commentator supporting Pakistan as well. Present commentary team has already made BD look like the winners

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Bangladesh has completely lost the plot due to negative cricket.

I agree. Very immature cricket by BD.

I so so eager to see a Pakistan v India test match. This would be epic, a battle royale.

 

[jog_1]

Athar Ali Khan is a terrible biased commentator along with some of the others.

I thought Ramiz was bad until I watched this series. Simply awful.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Athar Ali Khan is a terrible biased commentator along with some of the others.

He treats BD like they have been cricket heavyweights for 50 years

 

[chill79]

Ramiz atleast supports the team but Amir Sohail is eyeing a spot within the pcb circuit and thus he is ridiculing the present team.

 

[Shafi]

Bangladesh has completely lost the plot due to negative cricket.

RR is decent 2.69. Do you really think Misbah and Younis will score over 3.00 per over?

 

[Shafi]

Fielding is keep getting worse!!!

 

[chill79]

He treats BD like they have been cricket heavyweights for 50 years

He is a typical BD supporter. But the point is they know the reality and credit to them for supporting their team trough all these years

 

[Zohaib Shah]

Should have been run out.

 

[hussain.r97]

I am glad Asad makes someone happy. Because he makes me angry.

Why? He's a brilliant test player. Don't see how he makes you mad. He gets too much stink on this forum.

 

[MSaad1237]

We need a better fielding coach, a foreign coach maybe, our fielding is totally abysmal..

 

[chill79]

We need a better fielding coach, a foreign coach maybe, our fielding is totally abysmal..

presently I think we have a foreign fielding coach

 

[hussain.r97]

We need a better fielding coach, a foreign coach maybe, our fielding is totally abysmal..

Our fielding coach is foreign.

What we need is Julien Fountain....

 

[iHammad]

Hafeez on

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

We need a better fielding coach, a foreign coach maybe, our fielding is totally abysmal..

We need better players.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Here comes Hafeez, forever 34

 

[MSaad1237]

We are the worst fielding side out of any country.

 

[Mir jibran]

He treats BD like they have been cricket heavyweights for 50 years

he and shamim chaudhary are sunny deols of bangladesh
As if only one team is playing i.e bangladesh :/
very pathetic commentary we had to listen through out this series

 

[battler]

Bangla in the box seat now.

 

[Shafi]

When will Bangladesh declare innings?

 

[junaid.ahmed]

no googly from yasir

 

[desi_launda]

When will Bangladesh declare innings?

Younis khan alone can pass this score

 

[m.shah]

Bring wahab back

 

[iHammad]

Brilliant catch by Asad Shafiq!!!!

 

[LegbreakGoogly]

Atlast a wicket. . .

 

[iHammad]

Hafeez 2-44

 

[desi_launda]

 

[desi_launda]

Pakistan can easily win this match now.BD bowling attack is very weak

 

[junaid.ahmed]

thnx God

 

[honeybadger]

This may sound like a silly question. But why do batsmen always block in Tests?

Usually depends on the context but Bangladesh are overdoing it here.

 

[Shaan]

Looking at the wicket if bd can score 400 plus can be very tough, wicket is not so easy to bat and score. Slow and low wicket it is.

 

[Shafi]

We are the worst fielding side out of any country.

Bring back Fountain.

 

[Shafi]

Pakistan can easily win this match now.BD bowling attack is very weak

Not sure about that. BD has Sakib, Taijul and Rubel

 

[Shaan]

Usually depends on the context but Bangladesh are overdoing it here.

My firned i guess you are too much underestimating bd batsman here, some of these guys do play first class and know how to rotate and strike. The wicket is not easy as you are thinking of and credit to misbah for playing attacking fields.

 

[SL_Fan]

Pak should be able to wrap things up for around 350 from here. Good comeback by the bowlers.

 

[Shaan]

Rahim gone, so we are out within 350..

 

[desi_launda]

Not sure about that. BD has Sakib, Taijul and Rubel

Misbah,YK,Azhar ali will eat them for breakfast
