England v Pakistan | 1st Test | Lord's | Jul 14-18, 2016 | Day 2

[marlonbrowndo]

What is Misbah thinking. We have established and good slip fielders. Hafeez only recently lost us the first NZ ODI because of his drop

 

[Hasan123]

I wonder why Shafiq is never in the slips.

He's in the gully

 

[yasir]

Why the hell Hafeez is in first slip?? It shoul have being YK or Misbah[emoji83][emoji83][emoji83]

Golden chance is ruined.

Rahat and hafeez should be dropped from the next test

Pakistani fans should be dropped and banned from watching test cricket

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Our kaptaan's brilliant decision to include Rahat and MoHa is paying off wonderfully

 

[hur rizvi]

He is a terrible fielder anywhere, drops dollys from every corner

Slips are the most critical positions in England and you just cant have non-specialists in the slips.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Who puts Hafeez in slips when he is guilty of regularly dropping catches

[marlonbrowndo]

Amir looked good last over. Hope he maintains it

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

What this messed up is that England have not even tried to attack.

So many hit me balls and England just used them.

Amir's line is sorted now but swing isn't there in the air.

Rahat...lol.

Wahab will be introduced soon.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Wahab should bowl now

 

[Timewaster]

Lol at Rahat playing. he is bowling 80mph with no swing, just think of the pressure the English bowlers put on pakistan from tight bowling....... this is bad

 

[Hasan123]

Azhar
Team man
Misbah
Asad


All of them would have taken that

 

[Executioner]

Trying too hard here Pakistani bowlers, forgetting that they can use the post lunch period to their advantage, lunch aint far off

 

[ask_analyse_act]

He is a terrible fielder anywhere, drops dollys from every corner

with senioritism of misbah he is still in slips//

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Don't worry guys, Cook will give his wicket away.

 

[Shafi]

Hafeez is good for nothing!!!! Now both of them together will cross the runs and go for the lead. If England score 600 and declare there is no way we can avoid follow on considering top 2 can not handle anything and than Azhar Ali with his tuk tuk and 4 tailenders who can not even last 30 balls

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Misbah, Younis, Azhar. Its as simple as that. What is Hafeez doing there

 

[Red Devil]

Why's Hafeez still standing at first slip? The guy is an awful catcher.

 

[aroor]

10 boundaries already

 

[1992CorneredTiger]

Pakistani fans should be dropped and banned from watching test cricket

SOME Pakistani fans...

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Edged by Cook but didnt carry this time

 

[hur rizvi]

I won't class this as a good bowling display, there are plenty of good deliveries but some poor deliveries too and those just ruins the over. This is a mediocre display of bowling given the kind of purchase the bowlers are displaying.

Although that dolly dropped didn't help

You are being kind here, this so far has been a very very poor display of bowling.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Cook has been a lulloo this innings but still scoring.

A La Dhawan.

Amir deserves his wicket.

 

[nish_mate]

didnt carry

 

[MMHS]

No way will Hafeez be on the Australian tour if Arthur has his way. There are doubts about his batting anyway but without his bowling and ridiculous fielding he could easily be left out. And also he is picking up injuries

He might lead PAK in AUS - MoHa with his mediocrity still holds the most coveted positions in this team - only batsman in all 3 format, opens in Test, bats at 3 in ODI/T20, fields at 1st slip - do you think all this for his talunt? The moment I saw Misbah at Mid-on, I knew something is wrong.

Let me tell what - MoHa wanted to field in slips & Misbah avoided confrontation with YK/Azhar - just sacrificed his spot & cots PAK at least 150 runs. Not that Cook is going to post 170, but ENG going to lunch 50/2 with Cook gone is a totally different proposition when after lunch bowlers return for a fresh spell & batsmen has to start again.

 

[IcedCoffee]

Hafeez dropped a key player in NZ in slips, and now here as well. I don't get why this guy is still in the same catching position.

 

[nish_mate]

SOME Pakistani fans...

i stand corrected

 

[marlonbrowndo]

So much fielding practice over the past few weeks and Hafeez as ususal fails on the big stage

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Pakistani fans should be dropped and banned from watching test cricket

Why should Indian fans be worried about Pak fans

 

[Ellipsism]

Our kaptaan's brilliant decision to include Rahat and MoHa is paying off wonderfully

Rahat hasn't done anything wrong, unless you wanted to see Sohail 'huff&puff'' Khan, or that trundler Imran who was going at 5 an over playing against a second string county side. This is all Pakistan has

 

[nish_mate]

Why should Indian fans be worried about Pak fans

Apne to Apne hote hain

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

in the 6 years since Amir was banned; Pakistan have been quite consistent..............



In dropping dolleys in the slips

 

[IcedCoffee]

MoHa should go to 2nd slip.

 

[Noman]

Saj Bhai Please tell misbah to never let hafees field in The slips. Such a easy catch. The Whole knows moha is NOT a slip fielder

 

[Executioner]

You are being kind here, this so far has been a very very poor display of bowling.

A wicket fell down, so not that bad. A few edges here and there to add.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Amir has found some rhythm but Cook really shouldve been out

 

[Abdullah719]

Terrible cricket in this session so far.

 

[Shafi]

Rahat and hafeez should be dropped from the next test

Shan Masood?

 

[MMHS]

In fact, I think Asad is a far better slip fielder.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Get 1 before lunch

 

[Ellipsism]

Cooks edge is on fire today, brings back memories of the great Imran Farhat.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Root has looked totally flawless.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

In fact, I think Asad is a far better slip fielder.

Hes in gully. Misbah can be at first slip!

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Apparently, Wahab Riaz is Left Arm Fast Medium

 

[PakFan2010]

I wonder if Wahab will back up his talk with some wickets, he keeps telling us that Root is his bunny.

 

[IcedCoffee]

Hes in gully. Misbah can be at first slip!

Misbah is too slow. Should be YK or Azhar.

 

[nish_mate]

What is your Mobile number man in.....

 

[hur rizvi]

A wicket fell down, so not that bad. A few edges here and there to add.

It has been shambolic. A part from that one over and one over from Amir to cook. They have been all out pathetic so far.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Lets hope that Hafeez chance doesnt prove to costly! we need another wicket here before lunch!

 

[hur rizvi]

Wahab "Gun barrel Straight" in to the attack

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

Once again Pakistan history of poor catching continues....what a shame.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Listening to Hafeezs voice right now is making me really mad

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Azhar
Team man
Misbah
Asad


All of them would have taken that

hope arthur knows this and ask misbah to come to slips post lunch

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Rahat hasn't done anything wrong, unless you wanted to see Sohail 'huff&puff'' Khan, or that trundler Imran who was going at 5 an over playing against a second string county side. This is all Pakistan has

What an ignorant you are, Imran Khan came back well in that game, was on a hat trick, plus he is our best Test fast bowler on flat tracks, don't call him a trundler.

 

[Mamoon]

No need to cry about the dropped catch. Misbah and Hafeez were also dropped, it's part of the game.

Fielding has cost us before overseas and it will cost us again. Nonetheless, the bowlers have been very poor especially Amir, who is getting milked like a spring goat out there.

Hopefully he will be better in the second spell. Have no hope from others.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Cook idea batting.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Its raining boundaries.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Why are there just 2 slips

 

[Hasan123]

hope arthur knows this and ask misbah to come to slips post lunch

Arthur will stamp his athourity by the Australian tour

Amirs last 2 overs have been decent tbh

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Lol, our batsmen are to be blamed, playing Test cricket with a 90s mentality, brand of cricket has changed, tuk tuk won't take you anywhere.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Lots of deliveries going through the slips and Kaptaan takes off them

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Ajeeb Cht****pe kay chokay par rahe hain aaj

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Thats the line to cook. Maybe just a little but straighter

 

[Shafi]

England scoring over 6 runs per over in a cloudy seaming condition. Too easy.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Wahab is a 2 spell per series bowler.

Better to use his 2 spells in other tests which would have guaranteed results.

 

[Mamoon]

Cook hasn't been entirely convincing so far, but luck is on his side like Misbah.

Looks set for a hundred.

 

[Amjid Javed]

how many runs is cook going to score through the slips?

 

[Hasan123]

Had Hafeez caught that catch would have got a spring in Amir step

 

[nish_mate]

Its all Pakistani conspiracy to make Cook go past Teenda's record....

 

[hur rizvi]

Wont mind 1 over from Yasir before Lunch

 

[JibranAnsari]

Very ordinary stuff.

 

[Markhor]

Well its all gone downhill since the Hales wicket. We don't seem to have a bowler who can contain.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

What's the point of bowling outside off stump? Aim at the stumps, Mr. Wahab.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Eng will get 550.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Get Yasir on for an over!

 

[hur rizvi]

Wahab is a 2 spell per series bowler.

Better to use his 2 spells in other tests which would have guaranteed results.

This test is a guaranteed result. I dont see Draw unless Weather affects the match

 

[marlonbrowndo]

That was a regulation catch

 

[Executioner]

Root will be the ATG English player of the modern world(say post 80s)

 

[nish_mate]

Amir cheetah looking better with every over....
