[Bobbins]

Liverpool playing tomorrow

 

[Batman]

Pakistan | 3/14 | 10 Overs | Trail by 432 runs

Maiden again!

 

[Noork85]

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.

 

[Chuffed]

The only entertainment I got the last two days was on PP.

 

[hashmist]

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.

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

So much for the "batting conditions" lol

 

[Alien9511]

Azhar Ali century coming up !

 

[bhakkar]

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.

 

[yadunoe]

just watch when meow meow comes

 

[chui_kadoo]

Liverpool playing tomorrow

who are we playing is it live on skysports?

 

[chui_kadoo]

4 by butt

 

[yadunoe]

sarcastic claps by the fans?

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

444444444444444444444444444444444444

 

[chui_kadoo]

We need to take Finn apart. Hes a nothing bowler

 

[Bobbins]

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.

 

[chui_kadoo]

damm that was close. Almost carried to slips

 

[yadunoe]

We need to take Finn apart. Hes a nothing bowler

pakistan batsmen make him look like :aamir

 

[anakwalajinn]

Seriously shut up ......


We have won 2 out of last 4 tests we have played why should we play intercontinental cup ask bangladesh and Windies to do that

lol

 

[bhakkar]

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

 

[Bobbins]

who are we playing is it live on skysports?

West Brom @ 3:00, Sky aren't showing this, they're showing the Villa/Everton match.

 

[chui_kadoo]

almost yorked. How comes pak didnt try many yorkers?

 

[Sunny786]

So does everyone agree that wahab was lucky to get a 5fer?

 

[anakwalajinn]

we gonna win this guys come on. weve seen worse havent we

 

[Dr. Khan]

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.

 

[Batman]

Pakistan | 3/20 | 11 Overs | Trail by 426 runs

Finaly a boundary for Salman Butt as he off the mark.

 

[yadunoe]

almost yorked. How comes pak didnt try many yorkers?

exactly what I was thinking shouldnt waqar and aaqib tell them on a flat deck you use variations

 

[chui_kadoo]

West Brom @ 3:00, Sky aren't showing this, they're showing the Villa/Everton match.

damm. Hopfully we can put 5 past west brom and Torres gets a hattrick

 

[Chuffed]

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.

 

[Maula Jutt]

Where is Hanif Mohammad when you need him?

 

[chui_kadoo]

So does everyone agree that wahab was lucky to get a 5fer?

yes for me was a one innings wonder. He has no line , no length and most importantly no brain.

 

[yadunoe]

we gonna win this guys come on. weve seen worse havent we

why are all Norwegians so optimistic maybe its your high living standards dont have to struggle in life lol

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Lets Hope for the Draw - thats as good as a win in this situatiion.

 

[Noork85]

So does everyone agree that wahab was lucky to get a 5fer?

i knew that the very first day.

 

[chui_kadoo]

exactly what I was thinking shouldnt waqar and aaqib tell them on a flat deck you use variations

seems as though what Waqar says to our bowlers goes through one ear and out the other

 

[yadunoe]

Where is Hanif Mohammad when you need him?

laughing in his house at the sad state of our batting

 

[chui_kadoo]

Who will be our openers in our next test series anyone???

 

[yadunoe]

seems as though what Waqar says to our bowlers goes through one ear and out the other

I dont think our bowlers no how to do the yorker maybe aamer and wahab but a an asif yorker would just suck

 

[Chuffed]

Let's see if we can beat England's 39-4

 

[chui_kadoo]

its a sunny day now perfect conditions for batting

 

[bhakkar]

pak only 426 behind....

 

[yadunoe]

Who will be our openers in our next test series anyone???

should be azeem ghumman and salman butt. or hammad azam and salman butt

 

[chui_kadoo]

I dont think our bowlers no how to do the yorker maybe aamer and wahab but a an asif yorker would just suck

this is where we needed a bowler like Shoaib who could bowl yorkers at will and at pace and dont forget his super slower balls

 

[Noork85]

who do u think will b man of the series between broad n amir?

 

[chui_kadoo]

should be azeem ghumman and salman butt. or hammad azam and salman butt

i say give Azeem ghuuman ago. He cant do any worse then Farthead

 

[chui_kadoo]

who do u think will b man of the series between broad n amir?

broad because of his superb batting and matchwinning knock

 

[yadunoe]

who do u think will b man of the series between broad n amir?

it should be anderson because broad only produced in one match and anderson has been producing all series

 

[Noork85]

broad just got double honors on lords board

 

[On_the_up]

and here was I thinking Broad would be tired and not very dangerous.

 

[bhakkar]

yasir hameed messed up big time, one more similar innings from him and hes history.

 

[rajachoudhary50]

Let's see if we can beat England's 39-4

hey i just returned from work...what happened here?????????is yousuf gone...was this not flat deck ?????issed:

 

[Sunny786]

who do u think will b man of the series between broad n amir?

:aamir

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.

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

Pakistan | 3/20 | 12 Overs | Trail by 426 runs

 

[Chuffed]

yasir hameed messed up big time, one more similar innings from him and hes history.

He won't get to bat again in this match, we'll win by an innings and 2 runs.

 

[yadunoe]

i say give Azeem ghuuman ago. He cant do any worse then Farthead

we're in such a sad state i would even consider calling 15 year old babar azam into the team

 

[chui_kadoo]

yasir hameed messed up big time, one more similar innings from him and hes history.

yes Yasir has a big flaw and hasnt learnt one bit. He has one more chance and needs a 100 to rescue his career

 

[ZAK]

Maiden.

 

[Looney]

hey i just returned from work...what happened here?????????is yousuf gone...was this not flat deck ?????issed:

you are giving Pakistani batsmen far too much credit. they can fail on flat tracks too :iamlegend

 

[rajachoudhary50]

Kamran is going to make a 100 and cement his place in the team for the next 100 years

Ihe can hold on to his catches...he can stay for 100 yrs

 

[Energy]

Good drive by Salman Butt. I really hope our captain can get a ton in this innings and build his own confidence.

 

[hashmist]

stupid butt. cant even stand to look at him right now after his stupid captaincy.

 

[Atif]

Butt is attacking

 

[bhakkar]

farhat and hameed dont know what an off stump is. pathetic 'opener'. butt and ali have practically opend our innings.

 

[Chuffed]

Nice shots by Butt

 

[chui_kadoo]

Butt looks angry. Dismissed for 4. Thats how Finn should be dealt with. Finn is a nothing bowler

 

[ZAK]

2 to Butt.

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Its times like this where you wish Inzi was here.

 

[ZAK]

to

 

[yadunoe]

the problem with but is he gets close to a land mark and gets out he never makes a good century

 

[Chuffed]

England's weak link is Finn. They need one more competent bowler and their attack is the best.

 

[chui_kadoo]

super fielding. Stopped a certain boundary

 

[ZAK]

1 to Butt.

 

[anakwalajinn]

just when I stop watching they play good

 

[duostyle]

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)

 

[chui_kadoo]

Can Butt make his first 50 since becoming captain

 

[Chuffed]

Its times like this where you wish Inzi was here.

And Imran and Miandad and whoever else that could actually hold a bat properly.

 

[chui_kadoo]

Finn doing a Wahab

 

[Batman]

Pakistan | 3/36 | 13 Overs | Trail by 410 runs

Good over for Pakistan. 16 off the over.

 

[Atif]

16 runs from the over Pakistan playing a T20 match here
