England v Pakistan | 2nd Test | Manchester | Jul 23-26, 2016 | Day 3

[Muhammad10]

Hmm... Wahab looking far more serious with the bat, now that he's batting at 10.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Useless bhai When will England learn that all their spinners are beyond rubbish. Just play another seamer instead.

 

[ExplicitAI]

This brings back memories of the game against WI in the 2013 CT

 

[ExplicitAI]

What do we need to get past the follow on?

Unless they're playing against India

 

[BleedGreen]

if these 2 bat the remainder of today, we may have a slight chance of drawing this

 

[angrypathan]

What do we need to get past the follow on?

another 212 runs

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Just dont do anything stupid against Moeen please

 

[street cricketer]

Take a bow Misbah

 

[marlonbrowndo]

I always get scared when Misbah lap sweeps but he rarely gets out

 

[Abdullah]

To All Indian Brothers...

Make Rank Turners Come December... And Grind these whiners into the dust !!! Please !!!!

Pujara, Rahane and Kohli should aim to make 200 each innings.

Sincerely,
A Pakistani Fan

Bro these wickets have been pretty sporting.

55 overs left in the day

 

[Adil_94]

Misbah my respect for you has increased tenfold. Great batting.

[castortroy]

Wahab to get out here now

 

[ExplicitAI]

another 212 runs

Going to need another Misbah 100

 

[castortroy]

What a soft dismissal

 

[MSaad1237]

Out!

 

[ExplicitAI]

oh wow

 

[Shafi]

Moral victory . Great accomplishment brother. Jai shri Ram

Indian batting was always better than us regardless they score less than us sometimes

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Unless they're playing against India

or if Misbah is the batsman

 

[street cricketer]

Moeenatharan picks up Misbah..

 

[Abdullah]

Dawn just aso I had started dreaming again

 

[BleedGreen]

smash a few before our 2nd innings please

 

[Big Mac]

Can't really criticise him too much for that, it looks bad but he plays the sweep and reverse sweep so well that for Misbah it's as safe a shot as a forward defensive.

 

[Abdullah]

Damn

 

[Hasan123]

Wahab may as well play some shots

 

[angrypathan]

or if Misbah is the batsman

Touche

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Just as I say dont do anything stupid against Moeen and dont play the lap sweep, Misbah gets out to Moeen playing the lap sweep

 

[The_KING]

Good innings Misbah. If other batsmen have half of his determination, we would be in a much better position.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Misbah is moeens bunny now.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan should start rain dance

 

[JibranAnsari]

Amir needs to score a 30 here. Hammer these trundlers.

 

[Justcrazy]

This is highest test score

 

[JibranAnsari]

Misbah has so few scoring shots and now he has started getting out regularly on his favourite scoring shot.

 

[Shafi]

Micky looks under pressure. He desperately needs to have good chat with Inzamam and PCB if they want to fix our cricket

 

[Hasan123]

Amir needs to match the fight wahab has shown with the bat.

 

[Justcrazy]

England should follow on here , Pakistan openers would not last long here

 

[Hasan123]

Good shot by Wahab

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Lol that was no straight drive Ramiz

 

[Firebreaker]

Moeen Ali is such a bad bowler.He's getting from Wahab what he deserves

 

[Hasan123]

) unreal shot!!

 

[ExplicitAI]

nice one

 

[Justcrazy]

Only heavy rains can save Pakistan , But it looks tough , Poms would need about 90 overs to get Pakistan all out again

 

[Big Mac]

Wahab finding the gaps in the field with ease. Be afraid England, be VERY afraid.

Called it.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Did Wahab just hit a reverse six!

 

[Hasan123]

Don't try something stupid now

 

[Muhammad10]

Wahab Maxwell. ) ) )

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Damn. That mustve hurt a lot. And he almost caught it!

 

[Jabo]

Yes.

Let's go for plan C, take out their batsman.

 

[Hasan123]

England are pathetic just bring on broad and Anderson and you will get the wicket.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

I havent laughed out loud in a cricket match in a long time

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Yes.

Let's go for plan C, take out their batsman.

Its Ballance. Walking wicket anyway

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan trail by exactly 400 now !

 

[angrypathan]

England are pathetic just bring on broad and Anderson and you will get the wicket.

They're hoping the other bowlers can take the wickets so Broad and Anderson can be fresh to bowl to our openers

 

[saad32170]

Shot hay Wahab!

[marlonbrowndo]

No need for that Amir. Just block. Moeen is serving pies from the other end

 

[JibranAnsari]

Some laughs at least

 

[Hasan123]

They're hoping the other bowlers can take the wickets so Broad and Anderson can be fresh to bowl to our openers

I know but they have 5 bowlers anyway! They will be fresh now anyway

 

[Jabo]

Looks like we make 200 at least

 

[Big Mac]

Amir, you better not throw it away before Wahab gets his maiden fifty.

 

[Syed1]

Can we bat out two days in our second innings?

 

[Hasan123]

Wahab amir and Yasir can actually be decent tail enders. They just need to work on somethings and not be reckless.

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 16 runs so far.

 

[Hasan123]

Can we bat out two days in our second innings?

No we need some rain.

 

[Justcrazy]

Can we bat out two days in our second innings?

Not likely.

Only if there is good amount of rain.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Dont take on long on or long off Wahab...

 

[castortroy]

Probably the most inevitable thing to happen today

 

[Justcrazy]

No we need some rain.

Not some , lot

 

[Big Mac]

"Quicker one from Moeen"

No Ramiz, that's literally the average speed for Moeen's bowling.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

They are batting again ????

 

[JibranAnsari]

Our batsmen were pathetic , should have scored 400 here at least.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Are England crazy?? Why arent they enforcing the follow on. Chances of rain too...

 

[Jabo]

Never mind

we wont be making 200

England to bat

I though we only had tomorrow but we've still got Tuesday

no chance of a draw too

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

no follow on..

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Now bat till end of the day atleast and pile on the misery. Plenty of time to bowl out Pakistan anyway.

 

[Syed1]

Lol I hope they bat atleast two sessions.. hehehe

 

[PakFan2010]

England want to bat, that's very good news.

We can bat two days to save this match with a special YK fourth innings performance, he will score 200+.

 

[JibranAnsari]

They should bat again. Its a flat track but will be tricky after tea tomorrow.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Good aggressive decision from Cook. Grind their bowlers to dust and give the lineup some more batting practice.

 

[Syed1]

What a dumb decision, this just gives Pakistan a glimmer of hope to draw it out
