Bangladesh vs Pakistan | 2nd Test | Pakistan in the driving seat after dominating Day 3

[Slog]

Crucial day for Pakistan.

We should look to wrap up the first innings before lunch.

Btw asuming we get them out early enough do you think a follow on being enforced is likely or that Misbah will refrain?

Come on Pakistaaaan!!!

 

[Slog]

15 mins left!!

 

[MenInG]

Basically Pakistan need to field better and finish this off by tomorrow afternoon.

 

[honeybadger]

If Pakistan manages to wipe the tail in this session, which they should, they should enforce the follow on. Bangla lineup wont survive on a crumbling pitch.

 

[Justcrazy]

on .......

 

[imshally81]

yes

 

[Statsman]

Internet down in Bangladesh once again. Posters gone missing.

 

[Justcrazy]

6 down

 

[ali_786]

What a catch from Azhar! Great bowling from Wahab. Annoys me that umpire telling him not to bowl short.

 

[honeybadger]

Yasir will get Shakib with a googly.

 

[UpInTheAir]

Another down, this test should be done today

 

[Justcrazy]

Can shakib save BD ?

 

[imshally81]

yes again

 

[Statsman]

Minnows being minnows again. Brought back to Earth.

 

[Laal]

Wahab bowling a Johnson-esque spell.

 

[Justcrazy]

seven down

 

[Statsman]

So satisfying to see Bangladeshi players getting humbled.

 

[UpInTheAir]

What's wrong with taking a wicket every delivery?

 

[honeybadger]

loving the chin music.

 

[Justcrazy]

Destructive bowling by pakistan

 

[Bilal7]

We need to be smart here. Imran Khan and Yasir Shah should bowl right now so that Riaz and Junaid are fresh to bowl with the new ball.

 

[Snow]

ball is swinging and spinner bowling?

 

[junaid.ahmed]

poor by shakib exposing tailenders

 

[Bilal7]

Is Wahab losing his hair? Is he older than he says he is?

 

[Statsman]

poor by shakib exposing tailenders

Doesn't want to face Wahab, or even Yasir for that matter. Strange.

 

[Neferpitou]

Damn no ball.

 

[honeybadger]

Is Wahab losing his hair? Is he older than he says he is?

Male pattern baldness can set early in some people. It depends on when the baldness gene is activated. I had a friend who started losing here when he was 20, by the time he was 22, he was pretty much Sehwag.

 

[Neferpitou]

Some people lose hair early.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan should wrap this up quick here

 

[Bilal7]

Bangladeshi commie is getting ticked off. Amir Sohail not wasting an opportunity to troll him.

 

[junaid.ahmed]

big no ball

 

[Neferpitou]

Yorker please Wahab.

 

[usam wani]

Lovin wahab's spell!! Reminds me of akhtar!!

Just realized that I know someone like that too.

 

[Bilal7]

LOL, what does this commie want Shakib to do?

 

[LegbreakGoogly]

Johnson no.2 . . . Just Imagin Wahab in Australia . . .

 

[junaid.ahmed]

Wahab Riaz to Shakib Al Hasan, 1 run, dug in shortish and outside off, slashed up and over backward point. Yasir runs across, stretches his right hand and keeps it to a couple

funny commentary at cricinfo

 

[Slog]

Yasir getting decent turn

but bowling a bit too short

 

[Neferpitou]

Take your time Yasir, give him some stares, make him think.

 

[usam wani]

I think Junaid should be introduced

 

[Neferpitou]

Johnson no.2 . . . Just Imagin Wahab in Australia . . .

We did see him in Australia. He is lethal with bounce.

 

[usam wani]

Lol hafeez??

 

[ViciousMachine]

Why wahab taken out of attack........?

 

[usam wani]

Misbah ...for God sake don't do this!!

 

[Neferpitou]

Why wahab taken out of attack........?

Rest for 2nd innings. They'd rather spinners finish this off.

 

[honeybadger]

Lol hafeez??

Not a bad option considering lefties are on both ends. Should've persisted with Wahab for a couple more overs though.

 

[Adeel Naseem]

T.islami is new tamim

Look how well they are playing spin right now!!

 

[Statsman]

Taijul getting some vital runs as I cross my 5000 posts mark. First class captain now.

 

[UpInTheAir]

The pitch is supporting bounce, why have spin on both ends?? Man sometimes these guys...

 

[Justcrazy]

BD in a huge hole here , Pakistan should win this.

Congrats , share this in the landmark thread

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Me near double ton but still junior player

 

[Bilal7]

Think about the bigger picture; Pakistan have to bowl again and they want to have their pacers rested for the new ball.

 

[UpInTheAir]

Guess i have to eat my words..

 

[Neferpitou]

Relax everyone.

 

[Adeel Naseem]

End of don bradman of tail

 

[UpInTheAir]

Yes, i have been served humble pie by Hafeez. I just enjoy watching the pacers, spin gets boring

 

[Justcrazy]

eight down

 

[jog_1]

 

[cricketjoshila]

Where are the BD fans?

 

[honeybadger]

Look how well they are playing spin right now!!

[jog_1]

Follow on or not?

 

[UpInTheAir]

Follow on or not?

Finish the game today.

yeah misbah

 

[Justcrazy]

shakib

 

[desi_launda]

Real bangladesh is back

 

[Slog]

Where are the BD fans?

take a guess

 

[desi_launda]

BD will repeat VVS-Dravid partnership when following on

 

[UpInTheAir]

Shouldve kept a pacer on, theres 3 of them. This is just killing momentum

 

[Adeel Naseem]

BD will repeat VVS-Dravid partnership when following on

No tendulker sehwag part

 

[Shafi]

Misbah should bring fast bowlers instead of spinners

 

[junaid.ahmed]

misbah's field setting????

why placed a long off on last ball when batsman want a single

 

[MenInG]

Where are the BD fans?

Lets be fair.

All fans want to see their teams do well and they celebrated when they did well

 

[UpInTheAir]

What is this nonsense?

 

[Shafi]

Misbah never learn!!! Keep the spinners on so Sakib can score 100

 

[Shafi]

Sakib will score 100!!!! Thanks to Misbah

 

[Neferpitou]

Yasir showing his class.

 

[UpInTheAir]

Pressure released, they could've had great momentum going into the second innings.

 

[Slog]

Yasir with a half tracker barrage

he can be pretty ordinary when under the cosh
