KP pulling rug out from underneath the haterz again

 

[James]

Great hundred.

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

 

[malakian]

100 for KP. Whaddaplaya.

 

[Justcrazy]

100 for Pieterson here

 

[Wattoo]

if pieterson scores 100 here, he will become 2nd in the list of scoring most no of hundreds from England.
Cook is leading the list with 25 and pieterson has 22.

 

[Justcrazy]

KP is a legend in making , impact player.

 

[Wattoo]

thats it 23rd hundred, congrats man

 

[Justcrazy]

England trail by 279 runs with 5 wickets remaining in the 1st innings

 

[Wattoo]

If KP scores exactly 150 then he will become England's 5th most runs scorer.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pieterson can easily hit 35 hundreds.

 

[Justcrazy]

Lyon has been disappointing , Aussies missing a wicket taking spin option.

 

[Wattoo]

Eng are looking good, To save this match they shud avoid follow on

 

[Justcrazy]

England trail by 278 runs with 5 wickets remaining in the 1st innings

 

[Wattoo]

Pieterson can easily hit 35 hundreds.

But I have a feeling that he will announce retirement after playing 100th test.

 

[IndianWillow]

Cook is a more solid player, KP is a bigger impact player.

 

[Wattoo]

What...? Watson only 63 wkts in 44 test matches?

[Ims1]

is this guy doing drugs ?


Michael Vaughan, Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match Special
"Australia have got keep telling themselves, 'get two more wickets'. England are still chasing the follow-on. Anything can happen late in the day."

 

[cricfan967]

finally, hope to see a couple more

 

[MRSN]

some top bowling from Starc.

 

[MRSN]

 

[MRSN]

and Pietersen reviews it.

 

[MRSN]

that's plumb

 

[MRSN]

turning out to be a very good spell from Starc.

 

[cricfan967]

Keep going Aussies!

 

[cricfan967]

Broad's best of 169 against Pakistan

 

[Ims1]

280 for 7 , 2 more wickets today & this might become interesting

 

[Saurav]

I saw a faint nick on hotspot

 

[MRSN]

Broad's best of 169 against Pakistan

Pakistan could have won that test match if it wasn't for his 169..

 

[MarkCooper]

There was an inside Edge on hotspot!!!

 

[MarkCooper]

Hot Spot and Snicko showing the edge. What is this umpire doing?

 

[saiyan0312]

barbie on now..... 43 runs to avoid follow on.

 

[Ims1]

Sai,follow on aint on . Question is,can they fold around 350 ?

 

[MRSN]

Are you sure?commentators didn't say anything?

 

[MRSN]

Sai,follow on aint on . Question is,can they fold around 350 ?

the way Starc is bowling to the right handers, it's very much on.

 

[cricfan967]

Are you sure?commentators didn't say anything?

They did but they feel its an error as KP didn't feel an edge, he was fine with walking off.

 

[Ims1]

we shall see .

 

[MRSN]

They did but they feel its an error as KP didn't feel an edge, he was fine with walking off.

oh there was a break so missed it but Pieterson had reviewed it.
another one for Dharmasena then

 

[Wattoo]

very good chance for Aus to win this match, keep eng follow on

 

[MRSN]

did Dharmasena had a look at snicko or hotspot?

 

[cricfan967]

That knick was shown on replay, hotspot and snicko (regardless of it not being in DRS). How has KP been dismissed, Dharmasena needs to be sacked.

 

[Haroon786]

Broad's best of 169 against Pakistan

Fixed :kami

 

[Haroon786]

Dharmasena wants Sl to go to no. 1

 

[Ims1]

Draw it is .

 

[MarkCooper]

Weather for tomorrow and monday

 

[Ruri]

So England need to avoid the follow on and pray for rain?



This is what happens when pressure is applied from the scoreboard....Still only 5 wickets but not good.

 

[Robert]

So England need to avoid the follow on and pray for rain?

Yep, just another 35 runs should secure the Ashes.
