"Sohail Tanvir MOM last night in the CPL"

Don't do it Mickey.

Lol sometimes i feel like rameez doesnt know what hes talking about

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Seems like Cook will get 150+ we will be looking at 500 here.

Poor bowling have to say.

Yasir needs to keep it tight.

You are so wrong.

 

[Indian_Supporter]

Root is pure class. My favorite batsman at the moment, deserves as much hype as Kohli.

In tests? Way better than Kohli...no comparison.

Have to bowl with control as Waqar is saying. Keep it tight

 

[Shafi]

Sarfraz is no different to Umar and Maqsood with the bat.

Has the attention span of 25-30 deliveries only and loves throwing his wicket regardless of the format.

The 2014-2015 purple patch is over and he is getting exposed now, I'm afraid his career is going one way only.

I rate him higher than Azhar Ali, Hafeez and Shan Masood.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Its been only 11 overs. 275 runs still to go. What is this rondu pana?

Good video package on Mickey Arthur.

anyone find his coaching kind of awkward? lots of cliches...

 

[Seller1984]

You are so wrong.

Maybe he just doesnt get the right words out, gets flabbergasted

We don't have any backup or alternate right now...

No chance for England, and not poor bowling, actually good batting I must say.

 

[ethan hunt]

What duke ball swings after 10 overs?

What is everyone talking about?

Did it swing for England after 10 overs?

As far as I know, duke will keep swinging if there is something in the air.

It's something i have noticed with the duke.
Tends to start swinging after a few overs .
Unlike the kukaboora which stops swinging after a few .
You can ofcourse start getting seam movement straight away .

According to Stuart Broad this year's batch has swung after 10 overs.

Rizwan is better against fast bowling, but Sarfraz needs more time in Test cricket, for the time being.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Our bowlers should aim at the off stump like McGrath.

Overall. He's already better in Tests, but I feel that he is the only one who can get close to Kohli in Limited Overs in the next 10 years or so.

He hasn't reached his potential in those formats yet but he has shown enough glimpses.

The way he chased down 230 vs South Africa in the WT20, I don't think anyone else apart from Kohli could have pulled that off.

Overall, I find him superior to Smith, Williamson, Rahane and de Kock.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Hopefully. Don't see Hafeez being on the Australian tour

this is hafeez last tour, mark my words, that idiot shezad will be back in the team.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Idiot bowling outside the off stump again.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

He blabs whatever he feels like.

A likeable blabber.

 

[BleedGreen]

Need 3-4 wickets this session

 

[marlonbrowndo]

It's just the 12th over. What do you mean reverse Ramiz?

Really?

I have no idea. Not sure.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

We don't have a seamer.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

damn, eng making it look easy, eng make 520 and pak might struggle.

 

[PakFan2010]

Younis Khan and Misbah are good players but Cook and Root are great players.

 

[Mamoon]

Off-side field for Root and the desi Mitchell Johnson is bowling on the pads.

 

[Mamoon]

Nice breeze, which means more dropped catches potentially.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Amir troubling cook

 

[nish_mate]

Amir starting to get his act right against Cook

 

[Mamoon]

Amir needs to get rid of the hair dye, looks shocking.

 

[yasir]

Why the hell Hafeez is still in first slip??

Amir needs to come closer to the wicket to shape away for Cook

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Amir getting some movement. Should bring Rahat. Too early to introduce Wahab

 

[nish_mate]

and follows it with a wide sighter.......grrrrrr

 

[yasir]

Amir needs to get rid of the hair dye, looks shocking.

Yeah, I don't know who is his Style guide, he looked much better before... Dye hairs looks terrible

 

[aroor]

First maiden?

 

[Shafi]

Is Hafeez still in the slip?

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Good over but try Rahat

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Looks like a good start by Pakistan.

Damn gotta work a bit.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Is Hafeez still in the slip?

Yes unfortunately

 

[Zak_Fan]

Phaast bowling has been as good as I expected.

 

[theariezman]

We should not put any mental pressure on Amir...he is fine...he tried and it was cook's luck that he survived.

Don't expect Amir to take 5fer.

He got his act right quite a while ago.. you can thank hafeez for grassing an easy chance

 

[Mamoon]

England can afford to tuk tuk for a session. The thrashing they handed in the first 10 overs has allowed them this luxury.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Better from Wahab

Better than what India will ever manage

Yeah they scored 150 runs in a session

 

[aroor]

May be they were waiting for you [MENTION=139678]Zak_Fan[/MENTION]

Kaptaan probably remind his sons how he groomed Inzamam, Wasim and Waqar and won Pakistan the 92 World Cup.

You wish you were his son

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Need an in swinging yorker to Root.

 

[Mamoon]

Yeah they scored 150 runs in a session

They batted at over 5 runs per over in the first 10 overs against the great phaaast bowlers of Pakistan.

 

[Zak_Fan]

Again.. drag India for no reason.

Btw we won our last Test on the same ground, Ishant was unplayable.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

That's the thing about root. He looks to score off every delivery

 

[Mamoon]

You wish you were his son

No thanks.

 

[Syed1]

Is this test over now?

 

[Mamoon]

Wahab so predictable. So poor.

 

[Amjid Javed]

To many cheap runs given away in inns so far, also we cant afford to give away one hit me ball and over

 

[PakFan2010]

How do you get Root out?

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Amir is bowling well. Other bowlers have to keep it tight too

 

[Syed1]

Watch how the wrist-slitters and their king Mamoon are strutting around when England are building a partnership.

Where were these guys when Misbah and Asad were flourishing yesterday?

 

[PakFan2010]

76/1 after 15 would be a good start for Pakistan in ODI's.

 

[Zak_Fan]

Is this test over now?

Of course not.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Gotta say. Poor from Misbah to have Hafeez in the slips

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan need a change of luck here! 76/1 after 15 overs.

 

[Zak_Fan]

English struggle against bouncers. What length is Wahab bowling?

 

[PakFan2010]

I'd bowl Yasir Shah with a hard new ball, he may get some bounce.

 

[Syed1]

Perhaps bring on Yasir..

[Mamoon]

Root and Cook are lightyears ahead of Azhar, Younis and Misbah when it comes to playing pace, and they are good players of spin too.

No jumping around at the crease, no balls hitting the pads.

Clean and organized batting.

Get Rahat and Yasir on after one more Amir over

Hahaha what garbage fielding. Dive fgs

[PakFan2010]

Why did Rahat not dive? Has he been eating too many curries?

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Our bowling hasn't been poor, in fact, England's batting has been good.

 

[nish_mate]

WTH was that Rahat......

 

[Syed1]

Why we select this fazul Wahab

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Hopeless bowling and hopeless captaincy.
