Are you there Oxy?

 

[Oxy]

The future of Pak cricket is bright knowing YK is the man to take us forward from next year...

 

[Rana]

correct me if im wrong but their are more pakistani fans then english

 

[iZeeshan]

Good drive, well fielded.

 

[Rana]

well left

 

[Momo]

can we buy the loyalties of mehmood? afterall he is a pak deep down, right?

 

[Oxy]

Are you there Oxy?

No - I'm having tea with the Queen today, so couldnt make it.

52-1. 74.3 overs left

 

[Amir]

YK must be careful vs Mahmood with that catcher at silly mid on.

 

[the_love_machine]

The future of Pak cricket is bright knowing YK is the man to take us forward from next year...

Whoose gonna replace Inzi?

 

[Daoud]

I REPEAT taufeeq needs to play without fear of failure, not too defensive not risky but just right and positive. He must the hunger to dominate bowlers and demoralise them.

He should actually be looking to play the anchor. The other batsmen are natural strokemakers who can score quickly without taking risks so he should look to keep rotating the strike and look to put the bad balls away. If he has a 50% strike rate, he'll be doing his job

 

[iZeeshan]

The future of Pak cricket is bright knowing YK is the man to take us forward from next year...

But the late part of the future is bleak with the loss of Inzi and Moyo.

 

[zMario]

Cmon Younis!

 

[Rana]

dont worry about the required run rate, pakistan is capable of chasing this score in 50 overs

 

[Oxy]

correct me if im wrong but their are more pakistani fans then english

I dont think there are - depends on whn the next wkt or boundary comes - then we will hear for ourselves)

 

[D BHAI]

I imagine if Afridi & Moyo in place of taufi & YK ,

then the score will be 152/1 overs 16

 

[iZeeshan]

He should actually be looking to play the anchor. The other batsmen are natural strokemakers who can score quickly without taking risks so he should look to keep rotating the strike and look to put the bad balls away. If he has a 50% strike rate, he'll be doing his job

Ohhe's far away from 50% SR all right.

 

[Momo]

No - I'm having tea with the Queen today, so couldnt make it.

52-1. 74.3 overs left

When recently I grew my moutache, some of my friends told me I looked like Queen!

 

[Amir]

He should actually be looking to play the anchor. The other batsmen are natural strokemakers who can score quickly without taking risks so he should look to keep rotating the strike and look to put the bad balls away. If he has a 50% strike rate, he'll be doing his job

Exactly, no need to lose early wickets. STill alot left in the day.

 

[the_love_machine]

dont worry about the required run rate, pakistan is capable of chasing this score in 50 overs

No Razzaq and Afridi, so I dont think so...

 

[Rana]

true support today mashallah

 

[Oxy]

But the late part of the future is bleak with the loss of Inzi and Moyo.

Why include MoYO?

 

[Rana]

oooo noy out

 

[Rana]

taufeeq is scaring me!

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

another big over for pakistan coming up...come on taufiq

 

[Awesome Anjum]

Monty appealling for everythin'!

 

[iZeeshan]

plz dont tell me it was a maiden

 

[Bilsher007]

Great over that from Monty, had the batsmen jumping, the fielders jumping, all sorts of excitement going on. Mahmood to bowl now, let's see if he can find the same sort of tasters he was dishing up in the first innings

15.6 Panesar to Taufeeq Umar, no run, got that one to go over the batsman’s top edge, very close indeed, and that flies behind Read, where the first slip picks it up

15.5 Panesar to Taufeeq Umar, no run, arm ball, left

15.4 Panesar to Taufeeq Umar, no run, played defensively into the rough area and that just dropped short of Ian Bell at short leg

15.3 Panesar to Taufeeq Umar, no run, pushed up more, defended this time

15.2 Panesar to Taufeeq Umar, FOUR, sliced away through backward point, a risky shot, and that had the silly mid-off jumping and turning his back

15.1 Panesar to Taufeeq Umar, no run


Taufeeq needs to be POSITIVE

 

[Oxy]

Michael Powell comes on for Eng - I shared a century partnership with him in a league game once

 

[Raz]

Taufeeq struggling big time

 

[Rana]

hit him taufeeq, lose pressure dude!

 

[iZeeshan]

Harmy off the field

 

[zMario]

Oh good, Harmison is off the field, so the match referre is gonna sit there with them (Cricinfo said so)

 

[Rana]

taufeeq goes!

 

[zMario]

Oh dear, Panesar causing problems, 2 shouts now

 

[iZeeshan]

Huge Appeal. Not out.

 

[KA$H]

pressure builidng on taufeeq

damn he's gone

 

[Oxy]

Toffee struggling v Monty - AND OUT!

 

[Rana]

52-2!

 

[iZeeshan]

pressure builidng on taufeeq

damn he's gone

Is he?

 

[Raz]

And finally hes put out of his misery he was all over the place there.

 

[fakhar]

damn taufeeq gone....

 

[Awesome Anjum]

Taufiq gone!

52-2

Pakistan in some deep brown and smelly!

 

[pak4life]

that was expected

 

[zMario]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

No!

 

[the_love_machine]

I know Monty's got an arm-ball, but does he have a doosra?

 

[Oxy]

Taufeeq's dismissal wil cheer Momo & co up no end.

 

[Daoud]

No Razzaq and Afridi, so I dont think so...

Inzi and Kamy are capable. Right now we need to get into a position where a win can be achieved without too much difficulty

 

[iZeeshan]

O man. Taufeeq gone. Monty does it again.

 

[Big Mac]

ffs Taufeeq, what the hell was he thinking

 

[Raz]

It was going to happen sooner or later, Monty had him in knots in that and the previous over.

 

[Rana]

well we could be in deep trouble!

 

[zMario]

Well, Younis and Yousuf are here to save us, yet again

 

[Momo]

Umar should be subjected to Kambal-kutt, nothing less!
They are making a hero out of Panni for no reason at all.
I told you Feeka was useless.

 

[Awesome Anjum]

Doctrove saw that one clearly enough.

 

[Amir]

It was bound to happen.

 

[Big Mac]

I know Monty's got an arm-ball, but does he have a doosra?

Doesn't need one.

 

[Bilsher007]

Panesar is the major key for england's success today, pakistan batsmen must dominate, destroy and demoralise his bowling. INSHALLAH

 

[Rana]

cmon guys, 200 run partnership now!

 

[Raz]

Mo Yousuf and Younis Khan at the crease, this is a key partnership for us.

 

[Billy]

That looked pretty inept to be honest.

I know some batsmen are brought up on spin and others on pace but what on earth was Taufeeq brought up on?

At least Yousuf and Younis will keep their heads for Pakistan now.

 

[Rana]

44444444444

 

[zMario]

Guess what guys - This is the highest score we've made and be 2 wickets down

Pakistan 52/2

 

[zMario]

FOUR!

Great shot!

 

[Big Mac]

haha great start from Yousuf

 

[Awesome Anjum]

Effortless from Yousuf!

 

[Momo]

Taufeeq's dismissal wil cheer Momo & co up no end.

cheer? dont be cruel man. i am devastated.
but my man Moyo is here so there shouldnt be much to worry about now!
Inshaallah.

 

[pak4life]

pure class

 

[iZeeshan]

Panesar is the major key for england's success today, pakistan batsmen must dominate, destroy and demoralise his bowling. INSHALLAH

Do you know that Taufeeq is out, yet?

 

[fakhar]

Yousef and Younis needs to do what they did in the first innings .....four by yousef

 

[Raz]

Boundary and a huge roar from the crowd, a lot of Pakistani supporters in the ground.

 

[Rana]

taufeeq man, if you was gonna hit it, come down the track!

 

[KA$H]

it was a very poor shot from TU

 

[zMario]

Wow, that crowd was loud when Yousuf made that 4
