rehman 40 overs only for 76, had it been kaneria it would have been 40 overs for 160
 
Umar Amin was potentially better then Azhar Ali and Asad Shafiq but hes unlucky to miss out on selection. hopefully with strong domestic performances he'll be given another chance..inshallah

Yeah, that's why he did so well in the 50 chances he was given.
 
I don't know why ppl have already given up this is why test consists of 5 days that don't mean 1 team will always dominate all 5 days. 1st day belonged to Pakistan, this is just the 1st session of the 2nd day New Zealand are playing at home they have to show confidence and determination.

Remember Vettori is a captain and he has responsibility on his shoulders to guide his team to a comfortable total, isnt that what our captain Misbah was doing with Asad Shafiq them 2 built a solid partnership as well, Vettori is doing the same.

We will get wickets after lunch its when Pakistan always get fired up our team is still capable of scoring 400+ and I believe we will see a century or two from one of our top 6 batsman.

Its not over, 2nd session will belong to Pakistan.
 
I still can't get over Reece Young's plumb LBW when the score was around 200. When we have technology, USE IT !!!
 
nz run rate is freaking low. i hope they get 400 by end of nxt session. they wasting too much time
 
Speedgun says 130 but it looks like 110 by how much time these batsmen have. :tanvir
 
What's with Tanvir, all that effort and grunt for a 120 odd delivery outside the off stump?

yea they need some red bull during lunch break
 
I thought the announcer just said "Mohammad Aseef into the Attack" :)))

Turns out it's Mohammad Hafeez.
 
I can't believe they're praising Young, he was OUT way before. He did well to get his 50, but come on.
 
Pitch does look very dead, though the bounce will no doubtl trouble some Pak batsmen.
 
Yeah, that's why he did so well in the 50 chances he was given.
I saw glimpses of Saeed Anwar in Umar Amin's batting. He simply was 2 young & inexperineced to cope with bounce and swing but on good pitches he would have definitely scored more runs.

if you know test cricket, you should know only 10% of chance pakistan can win this test. most they can draw ( which i am sure they will). the only chance pakistan has chance to win if they get them all out under 350 which highly unlikely from here.

Too bad he doesn't turn the ball. He'd be like Graeme Swann with this drift.
 
Tanvir strikes again. Proving all the doubters, whether that be the NZ commies or all you on PP wrong yet again.
 
WICKET!

Tanvir with the 'lazy' delivery and Akmal with another catch!

Most of us thought the 1st test was going to end up as a draw but then came that magical session.

I'm not saying they will win but I havnt given up on them just yet, this team is capable of scoring above 400 we have done it against South Africa we can do it against New Zealand.

Pitch looks good and if our bowlers are struggling then so will the New Zealand bowlers.

We have good openers, we have strong middle order and our players love to play their shots too, so am expecting a big score from atleast 2 of our batsman.

While I speak we have had the break through before lunch :)
 
Wow Tanvir gets his 3rd wicket and Adnan his 6th catch.... everybody say with me...

Yosalf!!!
 
go for the kill! Wahab needs to man up and bowl a few overs before lunch
 
Aunty gets a yet another wicket with the shi**est delivery u can bowl but im not complaining
 
Tanvir applies the art of taking a wicket with the pathetic, slow delivery wide outside the off stump, perfected earlier in the day by Munaf Patel.
 
One thing is good about Tanveer he keeps working hard.He needs to increase his pace.

Six catches for Adnan , well done
