lol! Butt was scared of the ball.
Sure enough it did not carry but he could have easily stopped that - instead he jumped over the ball to let it go for four

You know what...when we had a "which player do you dislike the most thread" a few weeks ago, I answered Salman Butt for exactly that reason. I have never been able to work out.

He seems like a nice enough guy but how can you play international cricket and be scared of a cricket ball. Even more confusngly, how can you be an opening batsman, play well on the bouncy pitches of Australia and still be scared?
 
Mohammad Asif to Trott, no run, 78.2 mph, big appeal as Trott is struck on the pad by a booming inswinger! Are they going to review this? Indeed they do, but that's missing off and Trott was well down the wicket too, so that's not out


that wasnt reviewed? was it??
 
Trott is mouthing off to Akmal I guess, oh how I wish someone would shut this ******* up.
 
I think uhhhhhhhhhh Asif doin welll.
Sry 4 my English I recent move to Australia.
Is wonderfull country. Very cold today.
Am havin chi with Samosa with the cricket.
Youngster!!!!!

No it wasnt - As usual cricinfo does not know what they are talking about
 
Man, i hope someone washes Trott's mouth out with soap! That will teach him not to swear. Oh and also get him out.
 
The commentators whining again, huh, where were they in the last test when the English were sledging left right and centre.
 
It is just Amazing how commentators have forgotten the AMIN incident and havent discussed it at all
 
good counter attack from these two. Still we need to get England 150 all out.
 
Prior always talks too much too. Go after him too.

"Come on boys....4 days of rain scheduled"
 
Kamran needs to stand up to Asif.

Keep Trott in his ground!!!

Plus Asif is only bowling at less than 80mph.

That's a classic tactic in English conditions - great English seamers and keepers always hunt in pairs.

Problem is, Kakmal is more English than great.
 
I missed some of this mornings action.

How can Amin make a blunder if hes not even playing??????
 
Wahab Riaz again very poor today. Hes bowling too short. He hasnt got the accuracy

Can someone please explain what Umar Amin did today???

He was not sure if he caught the ball and asked for a replay. The replay was inconclusive and obviously if the fielder is not sure the umps can't give it out.

Looked like he took it cleanly, maybe should have claimed it, debatable.

Arey Bhaiiya he took a very low catch and did not seem confident and called for the third umpire - whereas that is not his job but rather the umpires. The replay was not conclusive, it did look more out than not.

Had he just stood his ground on that catch - 100% the umpire would have given it

He caught prior cleanly of Amir and himself referred it to 3rd umpire saying that he wasnt sure and camera angles werent conclusive enough and so it was given not out


Wat a rubbish player :amin

Then I guess Umar Amin should not be blamed. He was being honest. I guess if he felt that he didnt take the catch then he did the right thing
 
why is umar akmal wearing glasses in cloudy weather?? doesnt that make your vision even darker??
