England v Pakistan | Fourth Test | Day 3 : Session 2 | Lords | 28/08/10

[Bobbins]

Butt still there

 

[Indiafan]

Butt averages 20 as a captain. Had he been playing for India , he would have been their prime bowler !!!

Our bowlers average 25+ with the bat

 

[dirk diggler]

who here will actually watch the ashes im getting caught up in the hype

you're getting delusional my friend. ashes hype is strictly for the gorey

 

[chui_kadoo]

i dont give a rats ass about the ashes. I aint gona watch that at 12 am in the morning

 

[yadunoe]

you're getting delusional my friend. ashes hype is strictly for the gorey

by hype I mean the chance of seeing England get nailed by the aussies

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Azhar Ali is just wasting balls..he needs to take the initiative..needs to get runs..9 of 34 balls..come on

 

[Bobbins]

Ashes suck, if England are on the verge of losing 5-0, I will watch.

 

[chui_kadoo]

i want england to lose 5-0 in the ashes

 

[Bobbins]

Swann is on

 

[yadunoe]

uh ohhhhh meow meow comes on

 

[akbarc1]

Swann into the attack

 

[wazzy]

Oh no, Swann is on - first over wicket taker.

 

[On_the_up]

Danger signs for Butt
Swann coming on
He gets left handers out and get many in the first over of a spell.

 

[yadunoe]

Azhar Ali is just wasting balls..he needs to take the initiative..needs to get runs..9 of 34 balls..come on

thats how trott started

 

[anakwalajinn]

okay guys hows long time is it 4 aftari at ur place

 

[Maula Jutt]

I will catch the highlights of the last day of Ashes if Australia murders England 5-0.

Otherwise, they never held any charm for me.

 

[yadunoe]

swann looking like james bond

 

[Dr. Khan]

Does anyone else find Finn's follow through absolutely annoying. He simply comes straight down the pitch and almost three-fourths of the way to the batsman and then that annoying prance-like leg-wobbling.

What is funny is that he does not quite follow through the same way when hit for a boundary.

Boy are there some annoying characters in the English team.

I do have a query for the cricket experts on this site - why is he not warned by the umpires for his follow through

 

[mmkextreme_1]

okay guys hows long time is it 4 aftari at ur place

about 10 hours

 

[Bobbins]

What a RIPPER!

 

[Bobbins]

About 5 hours here

 

[On_the_up]

Swann turning and bouncing it

DANGER

 

[wazzy]

Swann immediately gets big turn and bounce. Ajmal hardly got any turn - there is the difference

 

[Bobbins]

Owwww Butt almost out

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

ok so how is that ball spinning

u don't need a doosra if you can actually spin the ball

 

[On_the_up]

leading edge just wide

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Butt can't play spin worth his life

 

[yadunoe]

butt is a goner for sure

 

[KingKhanWC]

Swann turning it square. Leading edge missed a fielder. Just a matter of time before Swann takes some wickets here.

 

[Bobbins]

Maiden over 44/3

 

[yadunoe]

why didnt ajmal see this turn

 

[On_the_up]

That over has put the cat amongst the pigeons.

 

[Chuffed]

For anyone still with hopes of winning might want to walk away from the game right now, what with Swann bowling........

 

[pak4life]

butt is soo poor against spin he will swing across the line any minute now

 

[osee_bhai]

swann is gonna rape us, it's official.

 

[shan]

Thats why Swann is best spinner. He spin the ball on any furface while Ajmal is usless.

 

[yadunoe]

pakistan need to attack the other bowler and defend swann

 

[Chuffed]

All those who know cricket, just watch this set up on a placid track, signs of true champions!

 

[Bobbins]

So much for the best bowling line up in the world. The only guy who is world class if Mohammed Amir, the rest are a real crock of sh*t.

102-7, 102 f*cking for seven and they let them make 446. What the ****. Useless motherf*ckers.

It's Amin's fault, his catch farce took away all our momentum, weather turned, Trott got in.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Time for our crappy batsmen to stand up and fight for once for god sake!

That's the spirit. Sums it up.

 

[mmkextreme_1]

thats how trott started

Azhar is not Trott..he averages 54+ in test cricket...I hope he proves me wrong..but we need runs..the score is not going anywhere

 

[Markhor]

Sigh !

 

[Amjid Javed]

Good yorker and well kept out by Azhar.

Finn resembles a distant old aunt of mine who lives in a village in Punjab.

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

For any-body with the slightest bit of interest - india are 88/2 after 15.

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

Time for our crappy batsmen to stand up and fight for once for god sake!

AJ did u just see swann bowling? whats with the spin?

how come ajmal didn't get any?

do u think its bc of swanns slingy action...he does alot with that arm and body of his before delivering the ball...where ajmals action is very still

 

[yadunoe]

guys if we loose this it will be a genuien defeat we didnt loose this england beat us

 

[bhakkar]

can someone inform rameez than salman cant play spin. what a crock of **** is rameez.

 

[Bobbins]

Swann all over Butt

 

[On_the_up]

Survive against Swann and score off the seamers.

It might be turning but it is usually slow turn at Lords.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Runs drying up and Pakistan batsmen causing their own pressure here!

 

[pak4life]

butt stuck on the crease use your feet

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

India have lost their 3rd wicket as we speak.

 

[On_the_up]

44-3

5 maidens in a row

Isn't that a song?

 

[mmkextreme_1]

5 maidens in a row..wth man..

 

[yadunoe]

see this is what pak batsmendo the go into shell and forget how to score . they are pure loser I think they have a PHD in losing

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

England were 47/5 guys...lol

 

[adiabbasi]

5 maidens in a row..........

 

[<< Rashid >>]

I used to be so gutted when Pakistan used to lose. Nowadays, I'm elated when they win, and equally satisfied when they get thrashed.

 

[Bobbins]

11111111111111 runn

 

[shan]

5 maidens? ***? Did they learn anything from past mistakes?

 

[yadunoe]

England were 47/5 guys...lol

England are England they dont have PHD's in losing we do

 

[Looney]

theyr putting pressure on him

can buttaaa survive and make a 100?

 

[chui_kadoo]

thats tea.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Some body mentioned this in the last test aswell. I think Swann is a bigger spinner of the ball then Ajmal but doesnt seem to use his arm ball as a surprise.

Ajmal seems to use more variation and seems to bowl a little quick then swann which maybe a reason why he does get as much turn.

I guess id have to look a little more at the Two actions when they bowl.

 

[Blitz]

2 runs in 40 balls. Why the **** am I watching this?! Why are you watching this?! Yes YOU! What is wrong with us.

 

[ZAK]

46/3

 

[yadunoe]

the problem with pak team is once something doesnt go there way the retreat and let them game slide and dont attack. we need a psychologist to change the mental mind frame our players

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan 46/3 at Tea

400 Behind! Now looking Clever here at All!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pretty Much Butt and Azhar need to bat through till close of play atleast and get some big runs for Pakistan here!

 

[Chuffed]

102-7 to 446! 120-7 to 446! 120-7 to 446! 120-7 to 446!

 

[MAJID-SHAH]
