niceeee

 

[Seen Sheen]

Gone
Pappu bhai strikes..

 

[insaftak]

Cook Gone!!

He should really be in pakistani side.

Asif is going to make me pay for dropping him from my fantasy team. in last game i dropped swan

 

[Maula Jutt]

Cook's been in terrible form. He would have been in serious trouble earlier had the English team not been winning consistently.

 

[Saurav]

Akmal holds on

bola tha na

 

[imshally81]

Yes GONEEEEEEEEEE

 

[iHammad]

Gone!

Kamran takes a catch.

 

[aqeelPK]

Kamiiiii you beautyyyy you held that well.

 

[Kashif_nazir]

Anyone make a Thread : Alaster Cook Bow your head in shame.

 

[NJamal]

Trott should also be sent early he is dangerous

 

[Amjid Javed]

Looks like Cook might be missing the Plane to Australia in his current trot of poor form!

 

[SAM'S]

O my sweet lord Almighty!!!!! Do my eyes deceive me? Did Akmal just take a catch? Why has the earth not turned upside down?

he probably didn't realize that ball had taken an edge otherwise it was a sure shot DROP

 

[iHammad]

1.6


Mohammad Asif to Cook, OUT, Cook's misery continues! He's undone by some regulation swing bowling from Asif, and Kamran's pouched the edge easily. Asif had swung the last few back in to the left-handed batsman but got this one to just hold its line on off stump. A little nick, a regulation catch, and first blood to Pakistan!


AN Cook c †Kamran Akmal b Mohammad Asif 6 (7b 1x4 0x6) SR: 85.71

cricinfo

 

[NJamal]

Cook is in the form of his life

 

[black_98]

Good bowling Aamir and Asif

 

[DW44]

Nicely bowled by Asif, First three inswingers and then out swinger to cook

Wasn't an out swinger. It was a straight delivery.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Need to get Trott and Staruss out early as well. Both players are in good form!

 

[bluffmasterv2]

Kamran should come up a bit, the ball is not bouncing that much, or am i expecting too much from Kami ?

 

[NJamal]

Kamran should stand a step up

 

[Inswinger]

Lol.....clouds or no clouds....the wicket is a dry wicket and is a batting paradise until Pakistan bat - they will then make it look like a minefield. 2 or 2 wickets max today. 100 odd run opening partnership. Centuries for Strauss and Pieterson.

There goes one of your predictions.

 

[mastermind_quad]

aur is tarah ...Cook ka form mein wapas aane ka sapna chakna -choor hogaya ....!!!!

 

[taq12345]

Aamer should take a leaf out of asif's book.He should get his hair CUT!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Looks like Aamer is trying to set strauss up for a inswinger and a LBW dismissal.

 

[iHammad]

aur is tarah ...Cook ka form mein wapas aane ka sapna chakna -choor hogaya ....!!!!

test match do innings ka hota hai...aik innings baaki hai

the way our batting is........ we might not bother England to bat again

 

[insaftak]

test match do innings ka hota hai...aik innings baaki hai

[KingKhanWC]

Trott yet to be dismissed early on. A very annoying batsmen.

 

[black_98]

It will be good if we can get Strauss and Trott early

 

[KA$H]

WILL THE PEOPLE PASTING UP LATE CRICINFO UPDATES PLEASE STOP IT

its very distracting

 

[mastermind_quad]

jahan ek taraf Strauss ko pareshani ho rahi hai run banane mein ...dusri taraf trott k bat se nikla chauka

 

[Amjid Javed]

Should be a good contest here between Asif and Trott.

 

[ZAK]

[Amjid Javed]

England 13/1 after 4 overs.

 

[black_98]

[mastermind_quad]

cook Malik ka shagird hai. ustaad g ko disappoint nahi kare ga

[NJamal]

[mastermind_quad]

got the England batsman startegy ...score on the 1st ball of over only...

 

[ahsan17]

Aamer is throwing pies at the moment. I hope he starts bowling better quickly as we need to utilize the new ball.

 

[black_98]

15-1 need to get atleast 2 wickets to put pressure !!

 

[Saurav]

one Pakistani batsman is out, we need to get 9 English batsmen out now!

going by that there r more Englishmen than Pakistanis in Pak team

 

[KingKhanWC]

Asif got his old action back? He can have a go at the left hander now.

 

[NJamal]

They are bowling on the legs of Strauss

 

[Vegitto1]

Asif bowling in the 80s. I guess his hair created Drag

 

[KA$H]

patience, this is test cricket lads

 

[RehanG]

Pak lost the (match) toss...!

 

[DW44]

one Pakistani batsman is out, we need to get 9 English batsmen out now!

They don't even have 9 Englishmen in the team. There's 4 South Africans and one Irishman which means there's a grand total of 6 Englishmen in the England cricket team.

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Asalaam-O-Alaikkum.

 

[Maula Jutt]

That was out

 

[NJamal]

It was close

 

[bluffmasterv2]

That was out what the hell

 

[mastermind_quad]

Pitch is looking good for batting.....

 

[taq12345]

Why is that an UMPIRE's CALL? It was definitely hitting -.-

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Early break-through for pak, cooks outlook on life wont have improved much...lol.

 

[black_98]

Ahhhh that5 a wicket man!!

 

[NJamal]

Kamran give a wrong decision on the referal again.
It was out

 

[Seen Sheen]

ohhh,in the end right decision was made....Looked pretty close though

 

[haizen]

Just tuned in...LOL at Asif's haircut

 

[pak4life]

all the close calls always seen to go against us

 

[bluffmasterv2]

Ian Botham says it was OUTTTT

 

[atif.raza]

Why is that an UMPIRE's CALL? It was definitely hitting -.-

just hitting isnt good enuf. the entirety of the ball shd hit the stumps

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

ooooooooooh - that was out?

 

[Maula Jutt]

Salman should have listened to Asif. Asif still looked like they should have reviewed it. And he was right!

All the players in our team should always listen to the bowlers. They are easily the most accomplished and credible in this whole pathetic lot!

 

[SAM'S]

going by that there r more Englishmen than Pakistanis in Pak team

who else has been an Epic Failure as batsman in this English team?
