England v Pakistan | Second Test | Day 3 : Session 1 | Edgbaston | 08/08/10

[insaftak]

Edge and Four by Farhat

 

[Strike!]

A lot more positivity from the batsmen today.

 

[sohaibsyed]

Dropped!

 

[shan]

Dropped?

 

[Atif]

Edged and dropped by 3rd slip, Farhat lucky..

 

[cricketpassion]

Dropped by Collingwood )

 

[SOSami]

Oh colly colly

 

[imshally81]

dropped !!!!!!!!!

 

[jattafridi]

Broad to Azhar Ali, no run, huge appeal! Broad is convinced he's caught behind as this scoots past the outside edge. He doesn't even turn around in his appeal, but the umpire says not out. Then, despite such a confident appeal, they don't refer it and replays show it was a very wise decision. It was miles away from the edge.

To start with, Broad should have turned around in his appeal. He's got to be careful. He's already been warned on previous occasions

 

[sohaibsyed]

thank god some luck for pakistan

 

[shan]

Farhat time to take advantge.

 

[insaftak]

Farhat Dropped

 

[IAJ]

Farhat is a walking wicket, hope he is as lucky as KP.

 

[Khabri420]

Farhat to score a triple century now....

 

[Atif]

Hopefully England will drop a few today

 

[Poison]

Very loose by Farhat.

 

[Sunny786]

How the **** is anderson doing that???? Is it the tape on the wrist that helps him maintain a certain seam position? Cause i remember a commentator mentioning that although he was not sure.

 

[aqeelPK]

When will this ball stop seeming? issed:

 

[Khabri420]

First milestone: Get past 72
Second milestone: Reach the 100 mark
Third milestone: Get past 179

..phir aage dekha jayega

 

[shan]

Any other batsman will go on to make a hundred. But Farhat need 10 dropped catches to do that.

 

[SOSami]

Azhar Ali is very impressive in his own scratchy way. Hope I haven't jinxed him.

 

[Poison]

How is the ball still swinging around so much 20 overs in?!

 

[kamranO]

lagta hai colly ko rehm aagya hai

 

[shan]

How is the ball still swinging around so much 20 overs in?!

Even when the sun is out. But hopesully it will stop in 5-6 overs.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Good intent shown by Azhar..Tried to upset bowler's rythm by walking down the track..

 

[kamranO]

Is There Any Chances Of Rain

 

[Poison]

Anderson's seam position is bloody amazing.

 

[sohaibsyed]

single

 

[IAJ]

Why doesn't Farhat just take some steps down the track to frustrate the bowler.
If he plays like this it is only matter of time before he edges one.

 

[cricketpassion]

When will this ball stop seeming? issed:

for some how its only seaming for Anderson .

 

[IAJ]

How is the ball still swinging around so much 20 overs in?!

That is why Waqar doesn't like the Duke ball.

These english bowlers will struggle in Australia with the other ball.

 

[Sunny786]

for some how its only seaming for Anderson .

Is it because of the tape on his wrist??? helping him maintain the seaming position...

 

[sohaibsyed]

lol azhar ali screaming nahi nahi nahi

 

[IAJ]

Umar Gul is our leading run-getter in this series

 

[cricketpassion]

[Poison]

That is why Waqar doesn't like the Duke ball.

These english bowlers will struggle in Australia with the other ball.

lol if it keeps swinging for 30 overs, it gives the batsmen 50 overs to make runs before the new ball comes again :younis

 

[Seen Sheen]

People are using umbrellas in the crowd to shelter themselves from sun instead of rain..

[MAJID-SHAH]

Imran looking in menacing touch! - 2 fours - shabash puttar shahbash!!

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

25 gone - 44/1

 

[Poison]

I think this is what they were attempting to do in the 1st innings (see off the new ball with minimal runs scored, and punish the ball when its not swinging), except the ball kept moving and we got skittled

 

[luvthegame]

sun is out...so only way to get out it to play a loose shot...

 

[NJamal]

If we can see off Andrebeta we are truly back in the contest

 

[aqeelPK]

Things are looking much better since ijaz butt's departure from england
