Misbah 99* on this day in 2017

[usman2321]

There is talk in the bookie circle that Misbah will reach 100 by Eid.

 

[Fireworks11]

So Misbah won't tuk in to food in Ramadan.

 

[Looney]

Latest update from Mohali : Afridi telling Misbah India already won and Misbah should now come to WI tour with him

 

[AZ]

: "Naheen Lala naheen, mujhe ball bohot bara nazar aa raha hai. Mey aur kheluunga."

 

[Fireworks11]

Misbah ko kehl ne do, hamara jahaaz intizaar kare ga...

:ekdin

 

[Fireworks11]

Confusion: Misbah's identical twin brother or a very close lookalike appears in St. Lucia it seems.

Misbah tuks on in Mohali.

 

[Gujar]

Over in Mohali, Pakistan's physio comes out to install latest updates on Misbah. Slight delay whilst Misbah restarts.

 

[Prince_Pathan]

looks like his double was lookin at this thread considering the shot he played today

 

[Fireworks11]

^

What shot?

 

[Prince_Pathan]

the one off the first ball he faced...lol

 

[Fireworks11]

You mean the footwork...

 

[kkmix]

He deserves the biggest facepalm in the history on mankind. After playing a marathon, never ending inning, for some 6 thousand balls, he gets out on the first ball, and that too to Bichchoo.

It's cos he had to get back to Mohali quickly as he left during the lunch break.

 

[Arcturus]

Misbah is Superman now? Flies to WI from India and back in 45 min lunch break?

 

[Gujar]

Misbah has the most advanced computer operating system known to man. He merely exported his files over to St Lucia using superfast fibre optic Broadband. There are only two copies in the whole world of these files. Those on Misbah's hard drive and a separate copy he keeps on floppy disk kept in a safe in the same place as Afridi's brains.

 

[Looney]

^ some very interesting theories .

 

[usman2321]

Lol Hope he won't be allowed any lunch breaks during the WI ODI series, and keep tuking away in Mohali.

 

[violet_may]

This has to be the best thread ever created.

 

[MRSN]

Misbah waits for the rain to stop.

 

[saajidrox]

rain rain tuk away

 

[usman2321]

Misbah gets an inside edge onto his pads and gets a single to finally bring up his much-awaited 100.

While he celbreates, we see the umpire signal..........

Misbah Can not believe it..

And the story continues, Misbah, Still not-out on 99.

 

[Pk-zindabaad]

^^^^^^^^ hahahaha

 

[Gujar]

Quality Usman!

Also worth noting that Ajmal seems to have become a total spectator now with Younis Khan coming out to run for him.

 

[Arcturus]

Auto rickshaw drivers in Asia are up in arms against what they term "attempt at tarnishing our image".
The chairman of Asian Tuk-Tuk Drivers Association lashed out against the widespread usage of the word tuk-tuk to describe Misbah.

"We wish to clarify that a tuk-tuk is capable of reaching speeds of up to 80 kmph and likening it to the runless batting of Misbah is a grave insult

"Our business has come down by whopping 20% as passengers now fear that a tuk-tuk will take forever to reach the destination."

 

[Looney]

Afridi has been kind enough to give us an update of Misbah after the match : He said Misbah is alive and doing well .


So he is still on 99* not out , i believe

 

[Fireworks11]

Misbah's twin wins the game in St. Lucia. Pak are making plans to somehow switch the two gentleman without anyone noticing.

 

[Inzy's Aloo]

News came out of St Lucia today that "Misbah is still alive"

In the last few minutes this news has been Confirmed via the massive explosive TUKS in Mohali

Just crossed hundred.

 

[Fireworks11]

Too little too late as far as Mohali is concerned. The train has long gone.

 

[kkmix]

This calls for a celebration.

 

[emclub]

 

[Fireworks11]

Great moment for Misbah. What a player in whites.

 

[Gujar]

Misbah's batted so long his sweat's bleached his clothes.

jeebus )

 

[Vegitto1]

Still the biggest liability in the ODI team!

 

[Bhaijaan]

No, this is n ot Misbah. Real Misbah still lives in Mohali. They didn't take him along to Pakistan after that

 

[Hasnain_786]

No, this is n ot Misbah. Real Misbah still lives in Mohali. They didn't take him along to Pakistan after that

hence the change in strike rates

 

[Looney]

No way he is still batting ;/

 

[Fireworks11]

The other Misbah heads to Belfast. The Mohali Misbah tuks along.

[Bhaijaan]

I saw Misbah's ghost at Phase 7 Mohali yesterday

 

[Bhaijaan]

That 36 ball duck was phenomenal ! )

 

[Zaz]

That 36 ball duck was phenomenal ! )

[Bhaijaan]

Wishing him luck to achieve his goal, Geoff Allott's record

 

[Bullet Drive]

is gutted it was only a 36 ball duck!

I've heard that the cricinfo scorecard was wrong.. it was 0(1)

 

[Inzy's Aloo]

There is talk in the bookie circle that Misbah will reach 100 by Eid.

Looks like the bookies got it wrong

 

[Bhaijaan]

Who will hit the hundred first?

Tuk Tuku or SRT ?

 

[Saqs]

Misbah's batted so long his sweat's bleached his clothes.

Call of the year.

 

[Saqs]

Looks like the bookies got it wrong

Eid al-Adha.

 

[VolcanicAsh]

And the LEGEND lives on. Hail to the TUKMASTER

The groundsman has been unable to cut the outfield for six months now due to Misbah's long vigil. It is difficult to know what's going on out there as the grass is 6ft long. The rustling of the grass is the only clue that play is continuing. Although Ishant's smiling face sticking out over the top suggests that the rustling is not entirely down to the cricket...

 

[chaiwala]

As always, hilarious stuff Gujar.

 

[Gujar]

Misbah is well on his way to another marathon effort in the third test against Sri Lanka. He closed the day on nine not out. He was interviewed by Ramiz Raja at the end of the day.

RR - Great effort Misbah. You led from the front again. A beautifully crafted nine not out.

Misbah - Nine! I could have sworn it was more then that.

^ LOL @ Tuk

Great memories, we cheered for each and every Tuk

 

[shahrukh619]

Misbah's new Car

 

[violet_may]

^ LOL @ Tuk

Great memories, we cheered for each and every Tuk

Our tuk is better than your tuk :dravid

 

[Bhaijaan]

^Obviously because our Tuk is not consistent with his tuking. He has turned into a six hitting beast

 

[shahrukh619]

actually Misbah has got a better strike rate then Dravid in Odi's.

 

[shahidafridi123]

Misbah hits a six!!!

But....

Umpire Billy Bowden calls No-Ball!!

He cannot believe it!! Stares at the Umpire:

Another Rest:

Misbah says to Umpire: " Come on!":

Next ball:

The pain continues......

 

[Misbah01]

Great SA123 lol

 

[shahrukh619]

Hey atleast the guy is not out

 

[shahidafridi123]

Hey atleast the guy is not out

Yeah lol

 

[shahidafridi123]

Yet another drinks break, players have a rest.

 

[Fireworks11]

The ghosts of Chandigarth resonate around Mohali.

 

[shahidafridi123]

^ LOL hehe

 

[velu]

I am not getting the potential n why people are still posting in this thread.

 

[Gujar]

Breaking news - Misbah declares the innings closed. Umpire tells him he can't as Pakistan are batting to save the game in the last innings. Misbah agrees, reluctantly, to carry on. Asad Shafiq seems to be refusing to continue by the looks of it. Misbah goes over and has a stern word. Shafiq is back. We're good to go again.

 

[shahidafridi123]

Almost bowled with a beauty from Gambhir!! 3 MPH, flighty full toss and Misbah misses it!! Thats 394.4 overs from Gambhir now, Vijay has bowled 656. Praveen, well dont even ask......

 

[shahidafridi123]

Afridi is angry!!!

 

[USIND]

fielder and umpire taking a rest while Misbah is batting.

Misbah ul Haq has been banned and kicked out from PCA when he was on 109* off 3578 balls . Rehman Malik has called a press conference calling this act a breach of Aman Ki Asha . Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is looking into this issue . Stay tuned for more .

Singh to Misbah, mistimed tuk and a huge appeal from Yuvraj. Umpire says not out. Non striker asks for a review.

he has been put down, wonder how much it will cost them, time that is.

his source of energy

)) How did I miss this legendary thread? )

Guess, 9 off 87 balls (1 four) was not that bad too.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

After ICC implemented the short format T20 which is tailor-made for players like Afridi, the ICC is now looking at another format after receiving several complaints by Misbah ul haq, who feels injustice and want a format which is tailor-made for him.

ICC will shortly announce the arrival of the new format named MisbatD30 The new format which will be the baap of test cricket is 30 days long. Not much is known about the format yet, but some of the most significant changes are that players are only allowed to score after blocking 250 balls. Yes after 250 balls Batsmen are allowed to make an attempt to take a single. Hitting boundaries are forbidden, instead you are punished. If you hit a six there will be cut 6 runs from your score and if score 4 you get -4. At least 100 overs must be bowled per day.

News is that Afridi has taken retirement from the format Already.

Oh MisbatD30 already started?

Just checked the score scard

Pakistan is 100 for 2 after (2000 overs) Day 20.

Misbah is batting on 13 of only 9000 balls

 

[shahidafridi123]

Great delivery from Dravid, he's bowled 3 ODI's now!! Rahane from the other end is really getting tired, but... HUGE appeal for LBW!!!! Not out!!! Umpire asks for a review:
