444444444444444444444

yousaf

 

[iZeeshan]

Driven for four. Quick outfield.

 

[samisback]

263 for 2

 

[iZeeshan]

Hoogy on.

 

[Easa]

266-2

 

[Easa]

How long was the delay in minutes?

 

[iZeeshan]

Hoggard bowling with excellent line.

 

[samisback]

i think its time where one of the batsman needs to accelerate a wee bit .

266 for 2.

 

[iZeeshan]

How long was the delay in minutes?

I would say aound 65 minutes.

 

[iZeeshan]

i think its time where one of the batsman needs to accelerate a wee bit .

266 for 2.

Preferebly Hafeez.

 

[Easa]

Thanks, Pepsi.

Pulled away for a single by Moyo

 

[iZeeshan]

Why is Colly continuing?

 

[CricketJunoon]

If you consider Inzi to be out of form or not in form then these two are the only batsmen who can play...lets hope an even bigger partnership then between them

 

[iZeeshan]

Or maybe they have gone senile.

 

[iZeeshan]

Even the cheering for Ponty is gone...

 

[Big Mac]

Don't understand why they're still persisting with Colly

 

[Monsee]

i think its time where one of the batsman needs to accelerate a wee bit .

266 for 2.

2nd day of the game and you want them to start playing faster...Pak has been scoring 'Overall' at 3.5 and above

What do you want them to do, start hitting 6 6's in each over

 

[Monsee]

Don't understand why they're still persisting with Colly

This must also be Inzi's fault...saala motta harami

 

[Easa]

Is it me or has Monty not been his usual self in this innings? He did not have the same bounce in his step or the zip and turn in his bowling.

 

[Easa]

Don't understand why they're still persisting with Colly

He's a partnership breaker.

 

[evertonfan]

Yousef averaging 71 against England. What a player.

 

[CricketJunoon]

This must also be Inzi's fault...saala motta harami

that was funny

 

[evertonfan]

He's a partnership breaker.

And yet he's only ever broken 1 partnership.

 

[Monsee]

He's a partnership breaker.

Who got his first wicket after 15 odd tests...HaHaHa

English and their big partnership breakers )

 

[Easa]

Colly experiment is over.

Saj into the attack now

 

[iZeeshan]

I am surprised Panesar has barely bowled.

 

[iZeeshan]

Sajid in

 

[Monsee]

And yet he's only ever broken 1 partnership.

A partnership that never even started...Faisal was out first ball

 

[Easa]

Who got his first wicket after 15 odd tests...HaHaHa

English and their big partnership breakers )

) )

I was being sarcastic because one of the commies labelled him a partnership breaker before he had picked up the wicket of Iqbal.

 

[Big Mac]

haha Mikey

 

[evertonfan]

Poor ball from Mahmood. At Leats a half of Pakistan's runs in this innings have come from Mahmood and Harmison serving up rubbish.

 

[Easa]

And yet he's only ever broken 1 partnership.

Sarcasm.

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

what a shot by hafeez....hafeez cha gaya hai

 

[Monsee]

Colly experiment is over.

Saj into the attack now

When did Saj started playing for England...who is running PP

 

[iZeeshan]

Short, wide 4 runs. NO CROWD!

 

[samisback]

4444444444444444444

hafeez

 

[Big Mac]

Cook

 

[iZeeshan]

When did Saj started playing for England...who is running PP

I was waiting for someone to make that crack from the 2nd test.

 

[Easa]

Cut away for 4.. poor misfield.

And then a sumptous straight drive next ball

 

[Oxy]

I am disgusted with Strauss! STrauss OUT. Fletcher OUT!

Sack the ECB!

Monty for Prime MInister!

 

[samisback]

44444444444444444 moreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

mis fielded by ali cook

 

[iZeeshan]

Short, wide again. 4 runs, misfield.

 

[evertonfan]

Misfield, but that awful ball deserved to be misfeilded.

If Mahmood isn't going to bother to bowl well then why should his fielders bother to field well for his bowling?

 

[samisback]

4444444444444444444444444444444444

hafeeeeeeeeeeeeez cheeetah

3 fours in the over thus far

 

[iZeeshan]

4 more Hafeez, great shot!

 

[samisback]

hafeez 74*

 

[iZeeshan]

Hafeez 78*, Yousuf 86*

Have we found our opening pair? Or is it just that Hafeez played in hte middle orde?

 

[CricketJunoon]

12 runs in that Mahmood over

 

[evertonfan]

I'd rather have Sami in teh side than the God-awful Mahmood.

 

[Easa]

Very disappointing over from Mahmood, rather summing up England's mood. They're flat, lifeless and a little clueless, too, as to their next move

 

[samisback]

284 for 2

 

[Easa]

I'd rather have Sami in teh side than the God-awful Mahmood.

Trust me, you wouldn't.

 

[Oxy]

And sack Zaheer as Manager for having a crap average v Windies!

 

[ShowStopper]

I'd rather have Sami in teh side than the God-awful Mahmood.

Take him But not in Pak side

 

[Easa]

Monty drops a difficult one!

 

[Big Mac]

Monty /o\

 

[Purgatory]

We're getting into one-day mode early. Woeful bowling, woeful fielding. Excellent batting from Hafeez, a great deal of luck for Yousuf to get this far (again).

 

[ShowStopper]

Monty drops it haha was a very tough chance I must admit.

 

[Oxy]

Great attempt by Monty in the field. No disgrace in putting that one down. Nasser being a bit harsh on him (but thats why Eng are so successful TODAY)

 

[iZeeshan]

Pulled away in the air, dropped

 

[evertonfan]

Maybe Hussain should start praising Yousef and Hafeez; The commentator's curse is the only we are going to get a wicket here.

Difficult drop for Monty.

 

[garbage_can2003]

feel sorry for Monty.

 

[ShowStopper]

Wow no one mentioned this a Pakistani and Indian playing for the same national side.

 

[Purgatory]

Matthew Hoggard must be livid.

 

[Easa]

Great attempt by Monty in the field. No disgrace in putting that one down. Nasser being a bit harsh on him (but thats why Eng are so successful TODAY)

Monty looks distraught, ready to burst into tears.

 

[iZeeshan]

Monty looks like he's going to cry. Poor guy, that was a very HARD chance.

 

[Oxy]

Darrell Hair has words with Saj Mahmood - its an angry exchange. Strauss intervenes to remind Hair that 'he's one of us'.

Hair apologises - but walks away confused and bewildered

English born...there is a massive thread on the subject in TimePass..

[iZeeshan]

English born...there is a massive thread on the subject in TimePass..

Yea it was mentioned...someone said at leeds that wow an indian and pakistani destroying pakistan..

 

[ShowStopper]

Darrell Hair has words with Saj Mahmood - its an angry exchange. Strauss intervenes to remind Hair that 'he's one of us'.

Hair apologises - but walks away confused and bewildered

 

[ShowStopper]

I think after next 100 runs we should Balistic

 

[iZeeshan]

Sweetly timed, single.
