Day 2, Test 2 Thread. Pakistan Vs England [21/11/05]

[Amjid Javed]

That's not out according to the rules, end of story. Absolutely bloody ruled, I AM RAGING

yeah lets complain to ICC about the racist umpire...!

 

[mlegha1]

Manjrekar pointed out the rule it shouldn't have been given out...unlucky Inzi was looking extremely good.

 

[Raz]

Ok i change my decision! It wasnt out!

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

Sanjay: "now that the set batsmen are out England have the opportunity to do new batsmen" )

 

[Cartman]

according to the rules ghauri is wrong.. let me cal my brother in lahore so he can go and stone that whanker's house.. that son of a ghauri.

 

[Naz]

Now we wont even get 400, these english cant take losing and have to resort to any means possible in order to stop being humiliated, they cheated out afridi, moyo, and know they run out inzi, which they shouldnt have had the nerve of appealing for, damn cheats.

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

bob woolmer clearly ****** off here

 

[Ace Base]

What do the rules say?

Badxah, akhi, can you post any screenshots please?

 

[Toony™®]

i think someone should cover nadeem ghauri with masala or tomato sauce..inzy will defn come and eat him alive.

 

[Amjid Javed]

BRITISH THE CHEATHERS

cartman you got somehing to say now chief

its was the pakistan umpire that gave it out!

any team has the right to appeal for a decision.

wow lets sack the racist umpire gauri

 

[floatingslip]

its not just Nadeem Ghauri not knowing the laws - Taufel and Hair were there on the field and could also clearly see Inzi taking evasive action while standing in the crease so its their fault as well. the appeal should not have been refered to begin with.

 

[Toony™®]

law 13.8...or somfin says that if batsmen in crease and looking to avoid injury - should be not out

 

[pacman]

finally Sanjay making a case for Pak batsman. Our own comms just dont say anything.

 

[Cartman]

BRITISH THE CHEATHERS

cartman you got somehing to say now chief

british meri phoophi dey putter laggey nai too mainoo chiraan dia ain ??? chul puj ja aithon afridi dia mureeda

im pakistani as they come u whining pathan lover.

 

[Hash]

why is this donkey an umpire if he doesn't even know the rules of cricket?

Stupid *****

Wasn't he the one who gave Inzi LBW in the Jeet Lo Dil ODI series to a ball that hit him about 5 metres outside the line of off stump?

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

my respect for sanjay has increased here tonight

 

[Amjid Javed]

monster six by rana...

 

[mlegha1]

Its law 38 of runouts and poor decision by Ghauri...

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

rana naved smashes giles for 6!

 

[Raz]

Rana with a 6!

 

[Hydro]

six for rana

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

botham u crybaby ...go to papa ....n complain that u never won a world cup..botham is the biggest loser in cricket

 

[Big Mac]

oh yeah, RANADINHOOOOOOOO

 

[Amjid Javed]

another single for rana.

pak 381/6

 

[Schiller]

that son of a spinster ghauri should go take a shower

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

finally Sanjay making a case for Pak batsman. Our own comms just dont say anything.

Sanjay in fact has been the most neutral commentator - he supported the Butt not out decision on the runout appeal as well in the last match (as the bails were not clearly dislodged, even though the stump was bent). Our own commentators have not been that neutral (more favoring the English if anything).

 

[mlegha1]

1 think i must say right or wrong Bob is a player's coach he seems ****** off more than Inzi due to the wrong decision..

 

[akpower]

i feel kinda sorry for ghauri

i dont we shd feel sorry for ghari. its absolutely ridiculuos for an international umpire to not know cricket rules. it doesnt matter whether he is from pakistan or not, it still is a very poor decision. period

 

[Cartman]

botham u crybaby ...go to papa ....n complain that u never won a world cup..botham is the biggest loser in cricket

there should really be a law against 5 year olds using the internet.

 

[Toony™®]

anything above 400 is a bonus for me.

 

[Raz]

my respect for sanjay has increased here tonight

Yes, indeed. Mine too.

 

[Jonty]

i think bob woolmer should come in to bat

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

this session will be reviewed by cricket pundits for months to come i tell ya

 

[nedian21]

i am not arguing anymore.. and commay.. .. im gonna have to kick u in the ....... well u know.. hehehe

btw Inzi was not out too .. what do u guys think?

cartman Inzi was out . But if take a broader view Inzi just took an evasive action and wasnt even going for run. I think so Bob n Pak management should bring this and Yusuf decision and at least say something abt that. England have started to show their true colors now. whinging and whinging. Yesterday Bell clearly dropped and still claimed the catch and now Harmi... they were throwing at stumps since yesterday for no good reason.

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Pakistan don't often score around 400 in the first innings and go on to lose the match (I can't remember the last time). So I'm pretty happy with Pakistan's position regardless.

 

[akpower]

finally Sanjay making a case for Pak batsman. Our own comms just dont say anything.

sanjay is a briliant brilliant commentator and has always been so. very nuetral, knows his facts, great linguistics and smooth flow in his commentary. lets give credit where due. just coz we dont have worthy commentators doesnt mean everyone else is bad.

 

[Ace Base]

I don't know why some of you are so pessimistic about reaching 400.

In fact, I'd be surprised if Pakistan don't reach 450.

Kamran Akmal is a better bat than most people realise. I think he's wasted playing were he is.

Rana naved can bat, make no mistake. He's a better bat than Irfan Pathan so that should put things into perspective. I can see the day when he makes a Test fifty.

Akhatr can get stuck into the ball when he wants to.

 

[Amjid Javed]

can everyone spot crying about umpires and realize we are in good postion right now!

for fk sake be postive!

 

[mlegha1]

400 + still a possibilty

 

[nedian21]

there should really be a law against 5 year olds using the internet.

yar cartman Usman didnt say anything to u. why u are attacking him again.

It just depends on wether sami/akthar knuckle down and bat with some intelligence.

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

flicked by rana for 4 gr8 shot!

 

[Hash]

[Amjid Javed]

Lovely shot for 4 off the pads.

 

[Raz]

No they should aim to smash every ball out of Faisalabad in my humble opinion.

 

[akpower]

can everyone spot crying about umpires and realize we are in good postion right now!

its not abt crying amjid. whats wrong is wrong. as good a position as we are in, we were styll hard done by those two unlucky dismissals today. plain n simple

 

[Hash]

385 for 6

 

[Hydro]

4 for ranadhinooooooo

as much as id like to agree with rana being better bat than pathan he has really come into his own as a 1 down batsman and this comparison is incorrect imo

 

[pacman]

If this was an England batsman given out by the Pak 3rd Umpire, they would have crucified him.

 

[nedian21]

can everyone spot crying about umpires and realize we are in good postion right now!

its not abt crying bhai. but it is ridiculous to see such England going to such depths and then our mahaan 3rd umpire does not know the rules of cricket.

But still we will win this test match and wrap up the series INSHALLAH. Rana looking solid and Kami is MASHALLAH a very able bat.

 

[Raz]

BREAKING NEWS: Ghauri will be sent to Miggy for Zabardast Phainti treatment!

There everyone happy now?! Lets all move on.

 

[akpower]

we can styll get around 450 if we bat smartly. our tail is not as long as people are making it out to be.

 

[Raz]

as much as id like to agree with rana being better bat than pathan he has really come into his own as a 1 down batsman and this comparison is incorrect imo

I agree Pathan is a better batsman theres no doubt.

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

this is the attitude that i think is wrong. The "we are always hard done" is just part and parcel of the game u cant expect decisions to always be the most agreeable upon but stooping down to saying its because of racism makes us just as bad as the ones who did it

 

[Toony™®]

386/6

 

[Amjid Javed]

more runs for pakistan.

pak 389/6

 

[Cartman]

im starting to feel we will score 450 runs. then we will bowl them out for 300 some runs.. then we will bat again and score another 175 runs and get them out for less than 200 and win the match.



so i dont care how inzi and fridi got out.

 

[Amjid Javed]

4 more afridi.

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

smashed by rana for 4!

 

[Hash]

a knee jerk reaction of 'it is not racism. stop whinging' is just as bad as well.

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

im starting to feel we will score 450 runs. then we will bowl them out for 300 some runs.. then we will bat again and score another 175 runs and get them out for less than 200 and win the match.

inshallah it will pan out something along these lines

 

[Hydro]

4 for ranas

 

[zushy_786]

4 more afridi.

Uhm AJ I don't know what match your'e watching but it was Rana who hit that four

 

[mlegha1]

Rana's batting has improved

 

[Schiller]

Harmison to Naved-ul-Hasan, FOUR, slower and fuller length
delivery, just outside off, drives it on the up over point for
four, top shot!

 

[pacman]

I am not implying racism at all. I am talking about how the commentators makes a case of it when they get the treatment. I also think we should move on as the discussion will lead to nothing. Sanjay has made a case of it, and that's good. We should move on.

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Seems like Rana's out to prove a point.

 

[Hash]

who was the cricketing genius who posted that we wouldn't even get to 400?

 

[Toony™®]

395/6

rana on a roll...

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

harmy has 1 successful bouncer but tries another to rana and he pulls it away for 2

 

[Hash]

[Amjid Javed]

[The_Cricket_Devil]
