This`ll be the last session, we only require a further 9 whereas England require 5x that ammount.

Ajmal to take a hat-trick, Aamer to take a hat-trick and asif to do his bit by taking a quarter-of-a-dozen.

Gul wont bowl, perhaps replace him with the akhtar for the next game?
 
We fought hard.

Rather tail enders tried to get a win, but batsmen werent interested.
 
I guess its a case of wether Pakistan can take a few wickets and salvage a little pride here!
 
i like your optimism , dude.

But this is not a first day pitch. Even Ajmal couldnt have made a 50, if the ball was zipping around ( like first innings)

Our best bet would be to just get a couple of more wickets and make it look more aesthetic.

Barring a miracle i dont see a Pak win. And miracles dont happen everyday.
 
Can we win? - well in the words of barack obama & bob the builder "YES WE CAN" !!!!!
 
Majid-Shah i think ur going over the top now and being unreal...

Games gone, face the facts, deal with it.
 
they've played really well, and there's nothing in the pitch...on to the Oval!
 
Ball is new so Ajmal cant do much and sun is shining and with only 118 to defend two As also cant do much.

akhtar doesn't have the stamina for tests, he can barely bowl 10 overs lol

YES we can....
 
also nassir houssein said you would need a 2nd spinner in the oval because its a flat pitch so maybe raza hassan will play that role? instead of wahab riaz

1. We still ended up losing that match.

2. They had to run every ball, why the heck would they do that in tests?

3. They were trying to hit it out of the park, not caress their way to victory by quality strokeplay.

Scenario Doesnt apply here.
 
Ajmal bowling to fast, not troubling batsman at all.
 
drop but it was still hard we saw prior drop something similar

i guess you are right...my fault:(
 
zoni or kamran, they bioth cant catch to save their lives...

barry mian to baray mian, chootya mian subhanallah...
 
Problem is Zul is just about little better then kami as a keeper. Pakistan need to start looking for natural keeper if they want to compete.
 
both of the wicketkeepers are not having a great time behind the stumps

but i like zulqarnain he should play rest of the series and south africa and then judge him
 
Thse dropped catches are really irritating, the first one was a tough one as Warne suggested but this one should have been held.

He is no better than Kamran to be honest. Unlucky Ajmal.
 
Zul is better then Kami but you cant drop these catches.
 
I know zoni won tdrop dollies but the zoni chance was still very hard and prior dropped something similar so you cant blame him

Against fast bowlers he is alright but against Ajmal he doesnt have a clue. Horrible all round.
 
Zoni really needs to take these Half chances. Lets hope he can take one before game ends!
 
but the thing about zoni is atleast he looks like the type of guy who is willing to learn. kamran looks like a lazy retard , i think zoni can improve his keeping
 
zoni is not a test standard imo. got to include sarfraz ahmed for 4th test if this continues in next test
 
pitch has changed since yesterday, its easier to bat, Pak has lost this game. well we knew that sine magnificent 72 all out...
Hopefully in next game they'l do some batting changes but not sure who can replace Gull?? how is that tanvir ahmed guy, any good?
 
i think PCB have turned there back on sarfaraz he wasnt included in a-team tour

Who is Sarfraz? It seem Pakistanis keepers are not upto international standard.

I guess you can keep zoni in as just a batsmen then... :)

got far more metal then these other losers..
 
Safraz is poor batsmen from what ive seen and keeping is no better then what weve got already!
 
So we should expect drop catches to be norm the only diffrence will be he wont drop dollyes against fast bowlers.
 
give zoni a chance he looks like a person willing to learn i want to see healy talking to him
 
Warne: Ajmal need to bowl slow

And i agree with him, he will spin more. At the moment he is bowling like he does in T20 and ODIs.

I do not agree with due respect.

Sarafarz is a better keeper than Kami and Zulqarnain and can bat.

Zulqarnain is new and should be judged in medium term but it has been unfair on Sarfaraz who deserved a place but i see that is a good thing, like Rashid Latif and Moin Khan duels as to who gets the nod, healthy competition. Sarafarz need to be given a few chances definetely.

They must drop cook imo.

Good thing about Ajmal is he keep it tight, and already two drop catches. Unlucky guy.
