New Zealand v Pakistan | 2nd Test | 15/01/11 | Wellington | Day 1 : Session 3

[Sledger]

The evening session, likely to be extended.


Need to get Taylor soon and then hopefully the rest will fall.

 

[Awesome_Username]

Two wickets at the start should be nice, like the last two sessions. That will almost bring in the tail.

 

[*sallu*]

Not expecting a lot

Poor timings for you but perfect for us. It's only 10 PM here.

What Pakistan must absolutely make sure is that they do not allow Franklin to get a big score here. NZ have gambled by taking out a specialist, albeit struggling, batsman and bringing in an allrounder more renowned for his bowling. Pakistan must make this gamble backfire. I don't think they've bowled well enough to Franklin till now.

I have work in the morning at 8am I feel the same I left to go to sleep in the 1st Test and decided to come back glad I did otherwise I would have missed that destruction, I don't wanna go sleep even though I'm shattered coz I feel a collapse could be around the corner and do not want to miss it!!

Amen to that bro. The first series I've been able to watch in a non-sleep deprived state since I moved here last year.

 

[Torpedo]

NZ need to get all out today.

 

[Decipher]

Pakistan lost the early advantage. Typical !

What early advantage? I think they've done pretty well and kept things real tight.

bruv i think me and you are the only ones from uk still on here right now

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

We really need an early wicket in this session. I expect Umar Gul to provide an early breakthrough.

124 kph

Tanno Rani had too much tea

 

[ZAK]

I've just been listening to O'brien's tea time analysis on sky. He seems to have all the tools required to be a good pundit.

 

[emclub]

Tanvir Ahmed to Taylor, no run, very very wide of off, in fact so wide that the umpire calls it, rather flat start from Tanvir : Cricinfo

 

[*sallu*]

Allowing them a few sighters

Commies having a go at poor Tan..nvir

Commies ripping into Aunty, LOL

[Sledger]

Pathetic stuff from Tanvir.

 

[Sledger]

Commentators are right though, he's just jogging in. Unfit.

 

[*sallu*]

Net bowling

Rehman on target again

 

[Sledger]

Rehman on, so it's spin at both ends.

 

[*sallu*]

What a sweet voice :adnanakmal

 

[CricketBuff]

Adnan OYEEEE is driving me nuts !!!

 

[Seen Sheen]

Spin from both ends should be employed...

 

[emclub]

Rehman on, so it's spin at both ends.

hahahhahah

 

[ZAK]

Tanvir struggling to break 130 kph barrier it

Its strange that he consistently manages to pick up wickets bowling at the speed he bowls at and yet the Indian phaast bowlers cant do the same. Say what you have to say about the man, he has this uncanny ability to pick up wickets at crucial times.

 

[*sallu*]

Lucky to get away with it

 

[nads_rocks]

add me in

Good Morning hehe

 

[Tapori]

I like the pitch and conditions; Both teams will bat twice for sure.

 

[Sledger]

Ohh, very poor ball down leg. Taylor missed out.

[Seen Sheen]

Tanvir is the batting allrounder I guess..

 

[*sallu*]

ooooh, that missed by a whisker

 

[Sledger]

That's a better line, just get the pace up.

 

[*sallu*]

128

 

[Sledger]

That's nice - 128ks.

The time of the day when Tanvir becomes "phus"

 

[emclub]

Commies love Aunty

 

[Sledger]

[ZAK]

Maiden. 149/4.

 

[Uhaymid]

[Sledger]

He's unfit, can't last a full day of test cricket.

 

[*sallu*]

127, maiden

 

[Looney]

If he was bowling into the wind , his speed would be in the negatives

 

[*sallu*]

:adnan - the lone ranger

 

[Sledger]

127ks lololol.

 

[nads_rocks]

Fun cricket

 

[Seen Sheen]

You never watched ?

His wasnt a grunt...More of a shrewd sound to throw off the batter..

 

[*sallu*]

:adnan - manna paii

 

[Desi]

why is misbah sticking with him? why is he playinggggg???? somebody save me.... !!!!!

well he's taken 1/2 of the wickets that have fallen today

 

[ZAK]

150 up for NZ.

 

[D]

Commies commenting on how our players aren't encouraging the bowlers because they have their hands in their pockets... anyone tell them it's chilly out there? the whole team is wearing sweaters man.. come on!

 

[emclub]

[Looney]

The crowd should make lots of noise every time Tanvir Fatima does his run up

 

[Desi]
