India v Pakistan | 1st Test | Delhi | 23/11/07 | Day 2

Misbah Ul Haq just tapped Younis Khan's ass. 73-3. Somebody MAKE SURE to cut it from the highlights.
 
come on Pakistan


one more wicket here and we will be RIGHT ON TOP of this match.

Great stuff.
 
Ganguly's been to the crease for 5 minutes and is already asking for a drink.
 
they should as it shows how much his elbow bends backwards
 
Now I can make my tea with some ease of mind,
Go Akhtar Go
Go Pakistan Go

they should avoid showing slow motion or ultra motion of Shoaib's bowling...

No, that's okay, that bent is natural in his arm, and ICC is okay with that.
 
Sami has really bowled well consistently...He has been unlucky not to take a wicket thus far.

He badly needs wickets for his confidence.

is his bowling action fine or is he bending his arm??

It's clearly bent BEFORE the ball is released, but it straightens out as soon as the ball leaves the fingertips.

with the naked eye it looks awful.. the bio-mechanics might have other say though...

India has a very long and strong bowling line up, and as Misbah proved they only need one partnership to go past Pakistan and another one to have a lead of a 100.

Pakistan still has to bowl well, take wickets and never rest easy.

obviously you get speed only if your arm straightens at the point of release. you are just confirming my doubt.
 
Shoaib doesn't chuck. A chuck is when you bend and then straighten your arm. Shoaib's arm 'extends backwards' when he bowls, which to the naked eye creates the impression that he is chucking but it has been proven that he isn't.

Sami is actually bowling well.

He doesn't get wickets when he doesn't bowl well and when he bowls well he still doesn't get wickets

but atleast he is putting some pressure on Dravid.

is some indian fan complainign again?
 
Tendu again hiding from akhtar as usual. I didn't believe this at first but after seeing so many times, tendy always try to avoid Akhtar, just wondering why? :)
 
Came in after doing some work.
Seems Tendulkar has gone the Misbah way!
Match looks tight now.
 
Gangu gone, tanvir strikes, now I am getting in to my real excitement mode.
 
25.2 Sohail Tanvir to Ganguly, OUT
Sohail Tanvir to Ganguly, OUT, bowled him! Tanvir bowls it fuller angling into off stump, Ganguly pushes forward with a huge gap between bat and pad, the ball takes an inside edge and crashes into middle stump, Pakistan are on a roll here

no dude i am just asking a question. i am not accusing him. why are guys getting so defensive on my honest question? :13:
 
Now we are WELL on top of this match!

Come on Pakistan! We could, just maybe, end up with a lead here!

They are already under tremendous pressure dude! 88 for 4! We are well on top!
 
reverse swing doing it for us. Shoaib Malik should remember this that on dusty dead tracks, our fast men are still our best option. DO not play 2 spinners ever
 
Laxman beaten for pace by Sami's fastest delivery of the match. Going down legside.
 
come on Pakistan

let's get another before tea
 
before the start of the innings i said 100 for 3 is what we need

we've done 1 better!

DRAVID GONE AS WELL!

Tanvir strikes!

93/5

India in tatters
 
oh. MY. God.

I am in a state of utter disbelief.
 
Which OTHER bowler had their first two test wickets as Gangu and Dravid???

I know someone who grew up on the same street as Tanvir. His friends call him Tukri!

Tukri for President!
