Where are the doubters who doubted my prediction? I got criticised for making a prediction after just two sessions. I've watched Pakistani cricket far too long.
 
Gul, Kaneria, and Akmal need to be out of team..need new blood! Would make it a better team
 
73.4
Umar Gul to Morgan, no run, 121.2 kph, dug in short again, well down the leg side, Morgan tries to wheel away a pull shot and misses. Pakistan have a very optimistic appeal, probably just to celebrate the fact that Kamran held on to the take
 
We're gonna lose this match.

Not normally a pessimist but I can't see our batting digging out 400-odd to set a decent lead.

Half an hour more of this torture. Hopefully tomorrow our team will be fresh and would give us some positive results.
 
kaneria the great pie thrower...come on kaneria come play league cricket in the US...even my team will make sure you score centuries while bowling...oh n you get free pizza to eat

Has just had a fabulous test match vs Australia. Now he has one bad day and you want him out the side?

The word 'fickle' comes to mind.

one good series in helpful conditions..and how about the countless series before that..the absolute trash he toses up
 
tough days test cricket for us

back up bowlers have been very poor

kamran has been awful

hopefully we'll bounce back with the new ball

You're kidding, right?! This team has plenty of new blood.

Nope I am not. I think new blood can't do any worse..ok Kaneria should have had one wicket..but look how many runs he has given..and this is kaneria now in every test almost
 
TMC radio commentary really ripping into Kamran - infact laughing their heads off at him

can't say he doesnt deserve it
 
NOW he starts to flight it, 3 overs away from the new ball!
 
Well i guess the only hope now is the new ball, got to get them before 350 but for that A&A have got to do a big job tonight and hopefully make major inroads in to a long tail.
 
Danish hasn't been as bad as the figures show imo. Ever since tea he has looked somewhat threatening. How can one be confident with Kami behind the stumps though. Someone should really look at how many catches/stumpings Kamran has missed off Kaneria.
 
Malik brought in to waste some overs for the new cherry.

People tend to forget these things. People also forget that leg spinners will always leak runs but the wicket will always come. Not with Kamran though.
 
Morgan couldn't make fifty against Bangladesh but are closing on a century against "worlds best bowlers"

He has been absolutely awful today, but I agree, he should have had one wicket next to his name.

Well he has been a little threatening but he is still serving his usual one please hit me ball.

Put yourself in Kaneria's shoes, I would be absolutely gutted.
 
And it is extremely terrible for a spinner to have not bowled a maiden in a test match in 19 overs, leaking 90 odd runs in the process, absolutely no pressure but oh well bring on the new cherry

I missed his spells before tea, but after tea I don't think he's performed that poorly at all. Plus a dropped catch/stumping does wonders to a bowler's moral. He's been beating the batsman like 1-2times an over nonetheless.

Yeah. Even Malik has bowled 2 maidens.
 
Morgan gets his maiden Test hundred with a :six

Well played Morgan!!!
 
All the pressure, all the advantages built up in the first part of the game has been lost in the most remarkable and pathetic way.
 
Asalaam alikum wr wb,

pathetic bowling by kaneria as usual. Yet another boundary off kaneria by morgan. Morgan has been brilliant today and thoroughly deserves his century.

Why the hell the fast bowlers don't bowl reverse swing with the old ball ? Why the hell kaneria gets picked when we know he's useless ? kaneria has gone for 91 runs in 19 overs and surely as most of us have seen that kaneria is the worst legspinner to have played for pakistan.



Commentators shane warne and atherton saying kaneria is experienced with 61 tests but has bowled nothing but rubbish today !
