New Zealand v Pakistan | 2nd Test | Hamilton | Nov 25-29, 2016 | Day 2

[Saeed]

Wishful thinking with Wahab, do you remember his bowl to Steve Smith in T20 WC?

The one way on the offside? He is always looking to get edges.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Walting is 29(90) however I don't see anybody making noise over here on that SR !!!

Any particular reason why this innings is the next best thing since sliced bread ?????

 

[On_the_up]

The one way on the offside? He is always looking to get edges.

Yep, this one.

 

[On_the_up]

Oh man, Wasim/Waqar would have had Southee out 3 times by now.

 

[Saeed]

Yep, this one.

View attachment 70734

I don't know how he is still in the team with that kind of mindset. There used to be time when stumps would roll and then we have defensive bowlers like Wahab Riaz.

 

[Rayyman]

Lucky by Southee

 

[On_the_up]

Maybe Sohail Khan can use the grey matter and get Southee.

With the slower pace, more chances of Southee connecting too.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Gotta get them below 250

 

[On_the_up]

Why the heck are they bowling short on this pitch

 

[On_the_up]

Gotta get them below 250

That ship has sailed me thinks. Below 275 would be doing well.

 

[Rayyman]

This is like Wahab's 15th over in a row.

 

[Muhammad10]

The match is being broadcast on Sky Sports 3, Willow Cricket and PTV Sports.

[Saeed]

Partnership is already 24. We should comfortably get a big score unless our batsman decide to throw away their wickets.

 

[Sanzcool]

 

[Abdullah719]

This hacking by Southee might prove costly. It's extremely annoying too.

 

[Big Mac]

"If Tim Southee can bat like this, why can't Kane Williamson?"

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

This hacking by Southee might prove costly. It's extremely annoying too.

why aren't we bowling yorkers ?????

 

[fast1975]

once sgain, sohail khan slow pace hurting us.....

bad bad bad captaincy....mhd ammir shd be bowling now instead of sohail.

wahab has bowled 12 overs in a row which is hard for any bowler.

 

[Saeed]

why aren't we bowling yorkers ?????

Yorkers are old fashioned, short balls are popular these days.

 

[Rayyman]

why aren't we bowling yorkers ?????

Riaz bowled one at 147, but Southee kept it out.

 

[fast1975]

only one one yorker bowled by pakistani bowlers to southee..........even when he is presenting his full wicket

why?

akher kiyon? hai koi jawab kisiee kay pass

 

[Saeed]

Bring Amir and Imran back on. These two are just letting them hit boundaries at will.

 

[Rayyman]

This hacking by Southee might prove costly. It's extremely annoying too.

Hopefully Wahab will bat like this.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Riaz bowled one at 147, but Southee kept it out.

yes.............. because 1 yorker is enough to know whether it will work or not is consistently...

 

[Shawaiz]

might be waiting to bring amir right before the new ball.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Can't believe this is the same country that had bowlers like Imran, Waqar, Wasim, Akhtar

seriously man this is depressing !!

 

[Junaids]

Sohail Khan has that terrible cocktail of not enough pace and an inconsistent length.

Warner and Smith should be licking their lips!

 

[fast1975]

and strange captaincy continues......

azhar sticking with sohail for some weird reason..

and sohail who is just a part time fast bowler after his 6 overs is trying to bowl short............but he has no pace

unreal

 

[Rayyman]

might be waiting to bring amir right before the new ball.

Yeah you're right.

 

[Abdullah719]

why aren't we bowling yorkers ?????

No idea. And I don't know why these two are bowling such long spells.

 

[Saeed]

Whacked down the ground and :4

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Sohail Khan has that terrible cocktail of not enough pace and an inconsistent length.

Warner and Smith should be licking their lips!

Trust me I'd be mightily surprised if they manage to play him well....A hint of swing and those Aussies become proper tailender....

While I write this, Sohail Khan Bowls Southee

 

[marlonbrowndo]

This is so frustrating

 

[Shawaiz]

Finally! but these 30 odd runs from southee could prove to be costly!

 

[Rayyman]

Another great idea from: "The Green General."

 

[Sin Nombre]

Waqar talked about a slower ball just earlier and Sohail paid attention.

 

[Speedster1]

Well bowled SK, Southee's little cameo comes to an end. N

New Zealand ahead at this stage, 250 looks a good score on this pitch

 

[fast1975]

and spinner sohail khan got southee with a leg cutter....

some smart thinking finally.....

great waqar younis was begging sohail khan in commentary box to bowl smart..and think out of box and bowl slow ball.

 

[Justcrazy]

Can sohail get a 5 fer

 

[Justcrazy]

Kiwis can get to 300 here.

 

[Saeed]

Matt Henry has a nice average. They can get to 300 if watling stays long enough.

 

[Rayyman]

Can sohail get a 5 fer

Man let Imran and Amir get some wickets too. Sohail always gets 5fers.

 

[waleed88]

Amir still stuck on 1 wicket...

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need wrap this up soon,

 

[Justcrazy]

Man let Imran and Amir get some wickets too. Sohail always gets 5fers.

No one stopping them.

 

[fast1975]

and kiwis keep hammering spinner sohail khan

sohail khan is a spinner with a unique action. he runs quiet a bit for a spinner to trick the batsman and then bowls a perfect spin ball

 

[Justcrazy]

Henry is no mug with the bat.

 

[Rayyman]

No one stopping them.

That's true. Good bowling from the "Senior Bowler"- today.

 

[Saeed]

Is Imran Khan off the field?

 

[boomboom6]

NZ firmly in control ... 250+ is like 350+ on this pitch and with our pathetic tuk tuk approach we'll be bowled out for below par total after blocking out a gazillion deliveries.

 

[Justcrazy]

as I said they will get to 300 here

 

[fast1975]

and another slap to spinner sohail khan by kiwis....thapak

4

 

[Rayyman]

Ball is not reversing. NZ is too clean and weather isn't hot enough.

 

[fast1975]

pakistan tricked NZ big time by telling that we are playing 4 seamers


in reality they had 3 fast bowlers and 1 spinner named sohail khan.

in last 5 overs, kiwis scored almost 36 runs...so all hard work ruined.
thx to spinner sohail khan lolly popps

 

[Justcrazy]

300 would make it tough for pakistan here

 

[Rayyman]

pakistan tricked NZ big time by telling that we are playing 4 seamers

More like Right Arm Fast Medium.

 

[boomboom6]

From 119/5 to 260/8 ... where have we seen this before?

 

[Muhammad10]

and kiwis keep hammering spinner sohail khan

sohail khan is a spinner with a unique action. he runs quiet a bit for a spinner to trick the batsman and then bowls a perfect spin ball

Herculean effort from the "spinner" to outbowl all the pacers on a green track.

 

[fast1975]

More like Right Arm Fast Medium.

that was the trick pakistan played, they labeled sohail khan as right arm fast medium but in reality he was right arm spin!

kaisa baiwaoof banaya dunya ko!

 

[fast1975]

Herculean effort from the "spinner" to outbowl all the pacers on a green track.

maybe we shd have real spinner yasir khan as well

 

[fast1975]

kiwi tail is so impressive.....................even matt henry at no 9 averages in 25

 

[Nasty Naz]

This is some seriously pathetic bowling to the tailenders.

 

[Justcrazy]

Watling getting close to fifty here

 

[Justcrazy]

This is some seriously pathetic bowling to the tailenders.

They are not pure tailenders , not pakistan tail enders

 

[Sarfarazian92]

yorkers tou karane hi nhn hai

 

[Sin Nombre]

It is an even match if NZ get to 300.

 

[Justcrazy]

266 / 8

Kiwis session , no doubt .

Tea Time

 

[Buffet]

It is an even match if NZ get to 300.

That will make it a bit even for NZ after Pakistan got chance to bowl first on green pitch with 4 pacers.

 

[Rayyman]

This is some seriously pathetic bowling to the tailenders.

They are literally slogging and it is paying off. Even Rahat Ali can do that.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan have completely lost the initiative here.

 

[Speedster777]

Out. Amir gets Henry

 

[Justcrazy]

They are literally slogging and it is paying off. Even Rahat Ali can do that.

Most team tail wags these days , except Pakistan.

 

[Buffet]

Now, NZ shouldn't get to 300 here.

 

[Shawaiz]

Amir literally has to be the unluckiest cricketer. Oh well, gotta bat positively now.

 

[Speedster777]

NZ 271 all out

 

[Sin Nombre]

Wagner is the only tailender in this NZ lineup.

 

[saeed5646]

lol Imran khan trolls some of PP Posters today well bowled lad

 

[Justcrazy]

Kiwis get 271 , pretty decent score

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to bat with intent here . A solid lead is required , because Pakistan would be batting last.

 

[Buffet]

Just 20 more runs for NZ here, but 270 is not a huge score. If Pakistan bats well on this easier to bat sessions, 375-400 runs will put pressure on NZ. Let's see how Pakistan bats in much easier conditions to bat now.
