Yeah I am not ofcourse. Following on Cricinfo

 

[iZeeshan]

nahi peeps. Farhat is on strike.

 

[Bilsher007]

Younis is not out, i have checked cricinfo.com. Awful loss of kamran, was really never a good idea to send him in as a opener.

 

[Usman Chadda]

MYK not out. Dunno what match are you guys watching

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

we need just rotate the strike

 

[Usman Chadda]

Farhat's SR is falling considerably

 

[iZeeshan]

England bowl very wide, just enough to escape the official wide.

 

[iZeeshan]

Imran Farhat hits it off his pads for a single.

 

[shan]

plz just avoid losing any wicket before tea

 

[Usman Chadda]

Pakistan 24/1 in 10.2 overs

Farhat 14 (28 balls 1x4)
Younis 3 (10 balls)

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

keep rotating the strike

 

[Easa]

25-1

Watching on PTV.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Farhat needs to play his natural game. He has gone into a shell somehow

 

[iZeeshan]

Dare I say it, Farhat looks better. We would see a big score from him, but thats impossible because he ALWAYS throws away his wicket when he is well set and doing good.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Farhat in a do or die situation at the moment. He fails, he is axed. He performs, he is retained

 

[iZeeshan]

He won't be axed as of right now. He has lasted almost 10 overs.

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

Dare I say it, Farhat looks better. We would see a big score from him, but thats impossible because he ALWAYS throws away his wicket when he is well set and doing good.

dont put the kiss of death on him

 

[Usman Chadda]

Come on! Someone from the Middle East please call the cable operators! This baseball is boring me to death...

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

another good over by harmy

 

[sharuk]

this is what im talking about, when farhat plays bad shots, ramiz says good bowling but whenever butt does the same, he solely blames the batsmen, hes a biased fellow

 

[sehban]

i called....they r saying maybe foxsports is not supposed to show the match..they dont no what's goin on?

this sux

 

[Billy]

A good over from Harmison, all deliveries angling across the batsman with varying degrees of bounce and movement.

Farhat did well there.

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

yk chases and 4

 

[iZeeshan]

Bit of a dangerous shot from YK, 4 runs.

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

single for farhat

 

[iZeeshan]

Farhat in a bit of a shell. He has waytoo much mental strain. But he's als defending well, so SR doesn't matter

 

[Usman Chadda]

i called....they r saying maybe foxsports is not supposed to show the match..they dont no what's goin on?

this sux

What the hell?! Fox Sports was showing yesterday...

 

[shan]

no need to worry about run rates we have three days left and Pakistan have to bat two full days to save this match

 

[Bilsher007]

Pakistan must'nt lose anymore wickets for the whole day, farhat's innings today will decide whether he should get the chop or not. It's about TIME he stands up and be a bloody MAN and play a innings to remember. Great loss to lose kamran earlier on.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Fox Sports will be hearing from my lawyers tomorrow! They cannot get away with this

Baseball is so boring, cant believe people watch it

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

no need to worry about run rates we have three days left and Pakistan have to bat two full days to save this match

thats 700 runs if we are there by the end of dya 4

 

[sehban]

What the hell?! Fox Sports was showing yesterday...

i no...this really sux
if they r not showin the match that probably means they wont show the rest of series...

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

better ball by harmison

hit farhat

 

[shan]

thats 700 runs if we are there by the end of dya 4

not 700 because that will mean we will have to mainten runrate of over 3.7 which is imposible

 

[Usman Chadda]

i no...this really sux
if they r not showin the match that probably means they wont show the rest of series...

So the cable operators dont even know which channel is supposed to show the match? Nut-cases all of them!

 

[iZeeshan]

Farhat hit in the gut by Harmison.

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

not 700 because that will mean we will have to mainten runrate of over 3.7 which is imposible

remember if we bat to the end of the day i expect afirdi to play a role

 

[sehban]

Fox Sports will be hearing from my lawyers tomorrow! They cannot get away with this

Baseball is so boring, cant believe people watch it

lol

 

[Usman Chadda]

Pakistan 34/1 in 13.3 overs

Farhat 17 (41 balls 1x4)
Younis 9 (15 balls 1x4)

 

[iZeeshan]

So the cable operators dont even know which channel is supposed to show the match? Nut-cases all of them!

I really don't mean to be rude, but please discuss this another thread.

 

[Bilsher007]

No risky shots please farhat and younis bhai !

 

[iZeeshan]

Looks like Farhat actually gets hurt from this, unlike YK (a lot worse), Collingwood, and Afridi.

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

single good play

 

[Usman Chadda]

Farhat is being bullied by Harmison

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

harmison bowling well

 

[iZeeshan]

Aik seedha mar Younis Bhai!

 

[Big Mac]

Monty \o/

 

[iZeeshan]

Panesar into the attack. Let us see what he does...

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

monty bowling

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

rotate the strike

 

[shan]

Monty was the main bowler in last innings because he got the Moyo

 

[iZeeshan]

Rotating the strike would murder Monty...

 

[Usman Chadda]

Come on Farhat smash Monty for a few sixes

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

outside edge for 2

 

[iZeeshan]

cut away for 2

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

farhat interestingly never hit a 6 in tests

 

[Usman Chadda]

Pakistan RR 2.27

Not good stuff. We need to be positive

 

[iZeeshan]

RR is 2.02 for Pak this session. Not great....

 

[Usman Chadda]

farhat interestingly never hit a 6 in tests

He has never hit a six in tests? No, no....cant be possible

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

He has never hit a six in tests? No, no....cant be possible

it true

 

[Bilsher007]

Never mind that farhat has'nt hit sixes in tests what we need is a solid display of positive cricket without losing any further wicket for the day. I don't care about the run rate just want farhat and younis to play their best cricket.

 

[iZeeshan]

He has. I remember it. He pulled Balaji for 6. Really nice shot. Then 2 matches later he came down the wicket and smashed Bhajji for 6 towards midwcket.

 

[iZeeshan]

Harmison knows Farhat REALLY well.

 

[sehban]

run rates dont matter..although being positive is good but still it is all about the wickets

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

He has. I remember it. He pulled Balaji for 6. Really nice shot. Then 2 matches later he came down the wicket and smashed Bhajji for 6 towards midwcket.

that would odi

 

[shan]

we need 100s from these two

 

[Usman Chadda]

18 runs from 50 balls. Farhat didnt take his medicine in the morning

 

[iZeeshan]

that would odi

Yea I know. OOOOOOOOOOO you meant tests? I'll check...

 

[iZeeshan]

Monty getting quite a bit of turn here...

 

[Bilsher007]

Harmison is bowling super, are you guys reciting darood shareef and making dua for pakistan ? Come on guys help pakistan out, very tough period for pakistan.

 

[iZeeshan]

Younis troubled by Monty here.

Drinks after 1 hr.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Harmison is bowling super, are you guys reciting darood shareef and making dua for pakistan ? Come on guys help pakistan out, very tough period for pakistan.

I am making bad dua's for Fox Sports

 

[Easa]

It doesn't matter how fast we play. Both batsman need to get set and their strike rates will improve.

C'mon Pakistan!

 

[Bilsher007]

18 runs from 50 balls. Farhat didnt take his medicine in the morning

Usman bhai yaar we need to survive first, runs will come as batsmen settle down. Please don't worry about farhat's scoring rate cause this is'nt important right now.

 

[DotCom]

Imran Nazir would smash those short deliveries to all parts of the ground ... ala Aus tour June 02....he did it to McGrath and Gilly ....

 

[sehban]

i just commericial on fox sports it said it will show all four tests & five onedays through july to september...but y isnt it showing the match today?
