salman butt couldnt get a century even if the oppositions fed him ladoo balls
 
yay finally some attention
jk

i love test cricket. but this is too much. i should study thats the reason. lol. can skip studies if we are dominating but yeah

and i dont care about blackburn actually

like i thought we were and decided to bunk class alltogether yesterday.
 
Wait till the press conference after the match
Salman - We are a young side, no one expected us to perform.
But we won a test from both England and Australia - we will learn

It is this mindset that is depressing - one win is good enough for both our team and management. Butts are going to off about that one win like we have achieved our goals - damn it set higher goals.

Announcing rewards and the likes on the back of single wins - Should have given these rewards if they had managed to draw this series.

Yeah i am surprised PCB didnt announce 50 lakh for each player after the Eng win also, like they did after Aus win.

Finn is looking like Nostradamus right now.
 
on a more serious note i cant wait for the likes of ponting and clarke to tear apart broad and finn and expose them as the overrated bowlers they are. our batsmen are making england look like the windiies of old.
 
President should give these losers more rewards after this match, this is what happens when you let the flood victims starve and fill these bums pockets.
 
finn more worried bout his hair than bowling. what a noob he is...hopefully ashes downunder will be the last of him and his stupid hair
 
You are being super emotional. Even if we loose this test by an innings, Pakistan would still end up with more than respectable summer. It's not Salman but fans like you that need a better mindset!

So I see the negativity is not only present in the team but also in the fans. Well I hope these standards are good enough for you but I am sorry to say at least for me they are not.

This is nothing to do with being emotional but common sense. If you think I am exaggerating or so - just wait till the press conference after the match and get back to me.
 
Pakistan | 3/20 | 11 Overs | Trail by 426 runs

Finaly a boundary for Salman Butt as he off the mark.
 
The biggest travesty of this match so far is that the English bowlers are doing what Pakistan greats perfected - Swinging Yorkers.

Overall pathetic performance, only Pakistan are capable of this in world cricket.
 
yasir hameed messed up big time, one more similar innings from him and hes history.

Pessimism is what has set up years back than other teams and i for one am willing to change my attitude for the benefit of the team.

Graeme Smith was abysmal as captain in his FIRST FIVE YEARS but their fans barely raised a voice. Their former players too understood the reason for continuity and i am starting to understand that too. Belittling them is going to do you or them absolutely no good. Let us instead get together and praise them on some of the good things that has happened in this tour. As far as i am concerned, there has been plenty of positives that have come out which are worth expanding upon more.

We really must back Salman and give him as much support as fans as its possible. Please try to see objectively. Beating the two best teams in a test each is no easy feat. We are ranked number 7 in the rankings for crying out loud. We have the best bowling attack in the world at the moment and we have good young batsmen who simply need a little more support before they inevitably come good. The fielding will improve once Younis comes back which is the question of "when", not "if". So i encourage you and all fans to begin highligting the positives of this tour more, positives that have been rare but were quite unexpected before the start of the tour

Atif

Good drive by Salman Butt. I really hope our captain can get a ton in this innings and build his own confidence.
 
stupid butt. cant even stand to look at him right now after his stupid captaincy.
 
farhat and hameed dont know what an off stump is. pathetic 'opener'. butt and ali have practically opend our innings.
 
Butt looks angry. Dismissed for 4. Thats how Finn should be dealt with. Finn is a nothing bowler
 
the problem with but is he gets close to a land mark and gets out he never makes a good century
 
England's weak link is Finn. They need one more competent bowler and their attack is the best.
 
Man of the series contenders: Trott, Anderson (biggest) and Broad.

Amir could be there if he scores a 200 or takes another 6/7 wickets in England 2nd innings (lol) :)
 
Pakistan | 3/36 | 13 Overs | Trail by 410 runs

Good over for Pakistan. 16 off the over.
