India cant play in dippers look at Asif and gul they took wickets by indippers
 
Arafat has got wickets because hes bowled full and around off-stick which is ideal for this pitch!

Yuvraj.."the great test player" ducking awkwardly.

Shoaib would love to bowl at Yuvraj-Ganguly combo.

Ganguly is mentally tough. He is in a completely different league than Yuvi even though he looks awkward against short bowling.
 
hate to sound greedy but one more before lunch would be nice. Cmon Shoaib.
 
Ganguly solid in defense, maybe akthar shud try few balls round the wicket!
 
7 overs and 3 wickets for Arafat. What a debut. One more wicket would make it perfect.

Let's make it 2 more for him. Thats all we need before we wrap them up.
 
Four legbyes and lunch!

India 65/4

Pakistan session we need to finish india off in next session thou!
 
Idiotic hand raising by Shoaib while running up.

He is not playing school level cricket here that the batsmen will get distracted. These are guys with years of experience.

The idiot would be better served pitching the ball up a little more, what a waste this last spell was.
 
hope pitch will be better after lunch. It was little uneven in the first session and there was swing too. I thought dravid's wicket was crucial. he threw away his wicket. he shud have played safely atleast till lunch. anyway good bowling from pakistan for a change in this series.
 
Party has just started....

It's going to be fun when Pakistan comes for batting. I believe 2nd innings for India is going to be the KEY for this match. If they mess up like they did now, you got the series squared.

Well start by Pakistan. Typical India... (so far...).

Calm down. He did it once that over.

It's Shoaib, the funny man.

Anyway, based on the past 'performance' of some Pakistan fans, hum kisi se kam nahin.
 
Sahi...

I could hope that miracles can happen. But not in Bangalore - we aren't very lucky there... and _fighting_ spirit is not in the genes I guess.

From this point, India will fight for _moral victory_.

I was just going to post about this arsse wipe. His name is Attual Wassan and you are right he is a complete loser who played a few tests and was then discarded like a used you know what. Poor guy is bitter.

he did not call anyone mediacore. he said arafat is just a medium pacer.

I think it's unsportsmanlike. You want to get a guy out - do it with your bowling skills, not by making faces at him like a 5 year old.

yes he did. he said that a mediocre bowler like arafat is looking like some other bowler. i didnt hear the other name. but basically he implied quite frankly that arafat is mediocre.

who is the second best team now? England?

Currently not much difference between england and india. infact india beat england recently in england.
 
I hate to be pessemistic, but this great start will be thrown away somehow.
 
This is a terrible start by Pakistan. We are worse than Zimbabwe. India are well in control of this game.

england 2nd best team??? based on what...the ICC rankings...england is 2nd there bc of their 2005 ashes win...i think england is crap...crap ODI team crap Test team...

i think when you are so bad that Australia can pretty much sweep you at will..then you shouldn't be calling yourself 2nd best....in my opinion...just shut your mouth and try to be better....too much smalk and no real work

infact atul is praising arafat. he bowled in right areas. he implied that shoib and sami have pace still could not trouble the batsman whereas arafat with mediumpace by bowling int he right area, he troubled the batsmen and got 3 wickets.

you guys have some kind of complex or what?

South Africa. No doubt.
 
Excellent session for Pakistan. The bowlers seem pumped up as do the fielders.

Some innovation from the skipper too. I thought generally Pak bowlers bowled in the right areas and better channels.

A very slow wicket though.

Did you read my post? or just saw the first line and replied?

I was asking who is the second best team. in ICC ranking, england are the second and india on the third.

man i dont have a recording or i woudlve posted it for u. i can gurantee u he said a mediocre bowler like arafat is starting to look like some other bowler. newayz its not something to start such a big argument about. whatever he said after sure he did. But intially he did call him a mediocre bowlwe.
 
Good seesion for Pak lets hope they can turn it into a good.

Most impressive is that they have not allowed too many free runs

LOL

Alright man. He called him mediacore. If a crap (worser than mediacore) bowler like sami gets selected ahead of arafat then nothing wrong in calling him a mediacore bowler.

Both ICC and Talent. I dont think SA have done that well outside SA recently except against PAK. But these days Pak have been losing to every country these days.

I quote the guy as referring to Arafat as "even a mediocre medium pacer like Arafat is looking like Hadlee."

I've no problems with that. Just funny that this mediocre "medium pacer" is bowling in the 140s on debut - faster than most Indian bowlers.

Is he not a medium pacer? Sreesanth and RP Singh bowl are as fast as Arafat. They too bowl around 140s.

Anyways SAF are a better all-round team that ENG.

IND is a good test team as well especially with such a strong batting line up. In terms of pace bowling there's lot to be done.

ICC Ranking says India are the third best team. Somebody mentioned in his post that indians are acting as if they are the second best team in the world. Being 3rd in the list and beat England recently, nothing wrong in acting like second best team.
