Mamoon ,zeeshan,bilal on cricinfo commentry page as well....are you guys commenting there as well??

 

[Mamoon]

Morning everyone. Just tuned in now, Pakistan going well it seems. What's the pitch like ? Another flat graveyard ?

Has some extra grass which is why it seamed in the morning, but is pretty flat now.

Oh lord, heading for another draw then barring a batting shambles.

[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] [MENTION=129948]Bilal7[/MENTION], do you peoples posting your comments on cricinfo too

 

[adarsh_bang]

200 partnership approaching. Bangla Tigers look a little clueless with a depleted bowling attack. Criminal not to play 5 bowlers in tests.

 

[Markhor]

What a way to bring up your hundred !

Well done Azhar.

 

[The_KING]

Well played Azhar

 

[Mamoon]

[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] [MENTION=129948]Bilal7[/MENTION], do you peoples posting your comments on cricinfo too

Not me.

 

[adarsh_bang]

What is happening on cricinfo, has azhar ali scored his hundred or not?

 

[Mamoon]

Oh lord, heading for another draw then barring a batting shambles.

Most likely, and we have only one specialist spinner and the toothless trio of Wahab, Junaid and Imran. Hopefully Bangladesh will crumble under scoreboard pressure.

 

[Zeshan547]

Yup i posted on cricinfo but what's the big deal.

 

[imshally81]

Congrats Azhar Ali...

 

[Zeshan547]

For away tours hafeez will be sitting duck, so first try Azhar with Shezi as opener and put Harris at 3, and if shezi fail replae him with babar, and we shall have one heck of top 7 batsman for all conditions, just as simple as that. Anyone agree with me here? And nice partnership.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Keep batting here for 2 and a half days, watching pakisan bowl here will be horrible.

What kind of name is taijul btw?

 

[Bilal7]

[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] [MENTION=129948]Bilal7[/MENTION], do you peoples posting your comments on cricinfo too

Nah, I was praying Fajr. However, that other Bilal seems to think like me and if I did post on cricinfo, I would have made a similar post.

 

[JibranAnsari]

on a roll.

 

[Mamoon]

How and where do you post on the Cricinfo comment section?

 

[Mamoon]

wants 150 today.

 

[Mamoon]

It is important to note that was 'rested' for the Bangladesh ODIs, so he might be on board for the Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka series over the summer, given that he is scoring at a SR of almost 80 at the moment.

 

[JibranAnsari]

I think you need to have an espn account or sign in with facebook to comment.

I don't think PCB will take him back in ODIs.

 

[Mamoon]

I don't think PCB will take him back in ODIs.

Hopefully, but he can blackmail them again.

Pakistan need a man of his experience in ODI's.

Wasnt given enough chances in the past either, plus his test form is great.

Haters like [MENTION=57355]pakistanigoneaussie[/MENTION] need to see that.

 

[TheNightWatchman]

This track is even flatter than the last one. It's clear Bangladesh want Pak to remain winless. I honestly feel sorry for the paying public

 

[TheNightWatchman]

Is YK better than Inzi??

 

[Mamoon]

Is YK better than Inzi??

No, not at all. You have to consider both Tests and ODIs to decide who the better 'batsman' is, but yes he has much better temperament than Inzamam.

 

[Mamoon]

Taijul's bowling action is slighly similar to Moeen bhai.

 

[Anchorman]

Athar: 'its the dawn of a new era for Bangladesh cricket'

Aamer: 'its the dawn of a new era but the thinking remains the same'.

)

Ouch. Brutal.

 

[Mamoon]

Azhar should look to overtake his top score of 157 here.

 

[Mamoon]

Another 6 for Yoni.

 

[Mamoon]

Ouch. Brutal.

#ThugLife

 

[Anchorman]

Younis has really kicked on after his century. Made 32 runs off 23 balls after his century.

 

[Zeshan547]

Gorgeous six by Yk.

 

[The_KING]

YK looking to get to his 150 before stumps

 

[Mamoon]

Shuvagata bowling like Ajmal with a legal action.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Huh........ why we batting so well. Thought Pakistan cricket was dead?

 

[Mamoon]

Can Yoni get a triple hundred? he will get to 150 today and we will probably bat for 65-70 overs tomorrow.

 

[Yatoo]

Huh........ why we batting so well. Thought Pakistan cricket was dead?

Roads. Even average Bangladesh players will make double tons here. And our bowling this series has sucked.

 

[TheNightWatchman]

No, not at all. You have to consider both Tests and ODIs to decide who the better 'batsman' is, but yes he has much better temperament than Inzamam.

I was talking about mainly tests. Somebody on cricinfo pointed out that Younis has a better average against Aus, England and South Africa...and in their home too.
Although everybody knows Inzi was Pak's best ODI batsman

 

[JibranAnsari]

How many doubles has taken today. ?

 

[Zeshan547]

Baba g in the crowd, he is actually quite fit considering his age.

 

[Mamoon]

Huh........ why we batting so well. Thought Pakistan cricket was dead?

We are up against Bangladesh on a flat deck with 2 specialist bowlers. Anyhow, Test batting isn't a worry at the moment, bowling is.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Going the way as the 1st test, flat wicket bangladesh resorting to using 7/8 bowlers they seem clueless on how to take 20 test wickets.. this game will be decided on if we bowl better than the 1st test or not

282/2

 

[JibranAnsari]

There wont be any result on this pitch. bat as long as you can.

 

[Anchorman]

Bangladesh truly have an awful Test bowling unit. Zimbabwe is much more threatening with Chatara and Panyangara swinging it with the new ball.

 

[Mamoon]

8,500 runs for Yoni.

 

[Zeshan547]

Another Milestone for Yk, 8500 runs in tests, only 332 to more to be Highest ever run scorer for Pak in tests.

 

[Mamoon]

Didn't go to college because I had to study at home, ended up watching every single delivery.

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Yk will be tested with new ball

 

[uberkoen]

It is important to note that was 'rested' for the Bangladesh ODIs, so he might be on board for the Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka series over the summer, given that he is scoring at a SR of almost 80 at the moment.

Regardless, he is useless in ODI's and should be kept out of the ODI side for good.

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Second new ball taken wirh only 1 pacer can bowl

 

[TheNightWatchman]

8 bowlers again

 

[imshally81]

Bach Gia !! )

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Shahid lookig better than current junaid phase 2

 

[Mamoon]

Shahid is a better new ball bowler than Junaid and Sarkar is around his level.

 

[Mamoon]

Got to love Azhar's temperament and discipline. Any other batsmen would be tempted to fish outside the off stump.

 

[Dios]

Bangladesh truly have an awful Test bowling unit. Zimbabwe is much more threatening with Chatara and Panyangara swinging it with the new ball.

They are not picking the right bowlers.

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Averageof m. Shahid also going towRds 50

 

[TNA]

I wonder why Mushfiq hasn't bought himself to bowl, better yet give Tamim a twirl and claim a record or something.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

I am of opinion that Pakistan should have played Saeed Ajmal and on a flat track it might have helped spinners. With runs on board, it would give him some space. But nonetheless, a good bowling attack. I hope Yasir does well.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

I hope Azhar and Younis have a 300 runs partnership and Pakistan bats for whole second day. Then go for the kill.

 

[Mamoon]

gone.

 

[walashi]

Younis out

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Pakistan is likely to win this one.

I would be surprised if Bangladesh put up a massive score even this test.

With that being said, no life in the pitch whatsoever (didn't see the new ball spell).

 

[JibranAnsari]

O damn. Missed out on a 200. Well played anyway.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

jinxed .........

 

[Thivagar]

nearly 150 for the legend

 

[Thivagar]

nearly 150 for the legend

gone now

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

well done by the way .......

 

[desi_launda]

YK 148@76

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Where is night watchman

 

[Mamoon]

Misbah's last innings in Bangladesh.

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Shahid anew styen

 

[arehaan]

I think a night watchman would have been more ideal under these circumstances.

 

[The_KING]

Misbah with a second ball

 

[desi_launda]

misbah in beast mode

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

you are kidding me ........... six by misbah

 

[Amjid Javed]

) got to love misbah when he smashes the ball like that.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Sad to see YK go. He had an easy triple.
