Eng v Pak: 2nd Test: Day 1 [Update Thread]

[PlanetPakistan]

we need to score at a decent rate so we have enough by the 2nd new ball!

 

[zMario]

Brilliant shot by MoYo - 2 runs!

Sorry, Younis!

 

[PlanetPakistan]

I feel like crying after reading this scorecard - 13/2

is this the 1st time you are watching PAK play?

 

[zMario]

We usually play the 2nd new ball quite well

 

[shan]

run rate of 1.62?

 

[zMario]

Nope, but I expected better as time went on

 

[zMario]

run rate of 1.62?

We'll live

) Nah, hes not good enough to do even that

 

[iZeeshan]

It's crucial for Pakistan to have Younis and MoYo stay at the crease now for a long time and form a solid partnership. Get us up to the 200 mark without losing another wicket and we will have a fairly good chance of making a large score (350+ at the very least).

 

[Gunner786]

man i hope younis and yousof picture india instead of england

200's garanteed

 

[zMario]

Cmon, get Sajid aka Sami clone into the attack!

Obviously

 

[zMario]

Down the ground, long chase, and maybe four? nah, get 3!

 

[zMario]

4...good shot eh?

How was that a 4?

 

[shan]

England get them or u r domed

 

[zMario]

Attempted yorker, shouldve been hit for a boundary, but not getting out will do!

 

[zMario]

England get them or u r domed

? What you talking about

 

[iZeeshan]

We need 400 at least because we're batting first.

or maybe Sami will go crazy and we can make them follow on. I like the latter...

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

2 more for myk

 

[zMario]

Great shot, they'll get 2 or 3!

Same here!

 

[PlanetPakistan]

M Sami should bowl from the end Hoggard is bowling now because the ball is already keeping a touch low

 

[zMario]

Well defended by Younis!

 

[Gunner786]

get to lunch without losing another wicket

and we are gauranteed easy batting as sun will shine and it will be hot today

 

[zMario]

Nah, Harmison's end, pace and bounce!

 

[zMario]

Actually, sun is shining now - just came out

 

[zMario]

A 6-3 offside field set for Younis!

 

[zMario]

Oooo gap in slips, get fours there

 

[iZeeshan]

Even Salman and Farhat did better then what happened today!

 

[zMario]

Lots of swing from Hoggard so Gul should bowl from that end!

 

[zMario]

Even Salman and Farhat did better then what happened today!

Yeah, they survived to 25-0, then Butt got out, then Iqbal and got us to 25-2, so sorta same situation?

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Nah, Harmison's end, pace and bounce!

Gul would enjoy the bounce more

 

[zMario]

Lots of carry from Harmison

 

[zMario]

Gul would enjoy the bounce more

Hm, lets see what Inzy does tomorrow!

 

[iZeeshan]

Younis should take advantage of the field. But hes not such a good legside playa.

 

[zMario]

Ball goes down legside, shouldve been an easy four!

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

dodgey fr four

 

[Billy]

Yousuf hits an elegant inside edge just past his stumps.

 

[zMario]

Younis should take advantage of the field. But hes not such a good legside playa.

He can play the sweep shot on the legside quite well

 

[zMario]

INSIDE EDGE, Four for Yousuf - Very lucky!
