New Zealand v Pakistan | 2nd Test | Wellington | 17/1/11 | Day 3 | Session 1

[Amjid Javed]

Tim southee onto bowl now...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Ok so I dont tune into watch the live action and I see on cricindo that Azhar Ali has already perished - Was he sticking his bat over his head while he swayed his head to miss the ball?!

 

[Looney]

Inti unkil will not buy :aali biryani today .

 

[KingKhanWC]

Azhar gone, missed it.

Up to the old timers now.

 

[ZAK]

Tim Southee to bowl now.

 

[Looney]

You are seriously the biggest jinxer ever.

Go to sleep

)

 

[KingKhanWC]

Southee making the ball chirp a little.

 

[ZAK]

Single to Younis.

 

[Uzi]

Azhar Ali,

What kind of **** shot was that?

Why can't he just drop his hands sway out of the way or duck underneath?

Such a soft dismissal.

 

[JibranAnsari]

wicket is coming for southee

 

[AZ]

whooooooa, YK almost got castled there.

pitch is lively today

 

[Amjid Javed]

Single for YK, needs some runs here and a big score.

 

[Syndrome]

This ball is moving around now. Looking ominous for Pakistan

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Azhar Ali,

What kind of **** shot was that?

Why can't he just drop his hands sway out of the way or duck underneath?

Such a soft dismissal.

Most of our batters do that anyways! Thats something that our batsmen dont get teached upon not that they learn much of anything either.

 

[Syndrome]

The sun just came out

 

[Gollum]

YK looks short on confidence. Not a good sign.

 

[nads_rocks]

Salaams and hey to all

 

[ZAK]

145/3.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

This ball is moving around now. Looking ominous for Pakistan

So is it looking like it'll be 250 all out for Pakistan?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 145/3 now.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Salaams and hey to all

Wasalaam and hey!

 

[nads_rocks]

I am still banking on atleast 430 here, and 2 centuries so its either Misbah, Younis, Asad or Adnan but I want 2 centuries!!

 

[yadunoe]

the "youngsters" of pak cricket will save us

 

[ZAK]

Salaams and hey to all

W Salaam.

 

[Looney]

ball out of shape ?

well daaaaan NZ well daaaaaan

 

[AZ]

shut the hell up MacFatass!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Lets be postive here guys!

 

[KingKhanWC]

weather won't save either team.

 

[AZ]

too full and put away by YK.

 

[ZAK]

to

 

[Pakistani93]

Driven for four by YK

 

[Looney]

Will the wrist slitters please leave this thread immediately ?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Good shot for 4 by YK.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Classic YK drive.

 

[Gollum]

YK with a beautiful cover drive.

 

[cricfan967]

 

[ZAK]

 

[Amjid Javed]

150 up for Pakistan.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Wide bring the 150 up.

 

[ZAK]

150 up for PAK.

 

[GOAT]

Very tricky period here, need to consolidate and take it easy here. These are the two men to do it.

 

[pak4life]

Why have we gone into our shell these bowlers are nothing special were just letting them settle into a good Rhythm. Misbah will just do tuk tuk get the scoreboard ticking!

 

[ScotRaz]

Will the wrist slitters please leave this thread immediately ?

And also the jinxers, you know who you are lol.

 

[Looney]

it was a FUNtastic shot

 

[cricfan967]

Classy clip more

 

[Sledger]

150 up.

 

[Gollum]

I think after the first hour, it should be the batters pitch...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Guys is it quite overcast and the ball reversing too?

I haven't tuned in yet to the live action so asking thats why!

 

[Amjid Javed]

4 more for YK.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Clipped smoothly in the gap, another 4 to YK.

 

[ZAK]

more to

 

[AZ]

too straight and clipped thru midwicket.

easy peasy.

 

[Pakistani93]

Another four for YK

 

[Gollum]

another lovely on drive

 

[cricfan967]

9 runs from that over.

 

[ZAK]

154/3.

 

[GOAT]

easy peasy.

Will you stop it?!

 

[KingKhanWC]

Guys is it quite overcast and the ball reversing too?

Bit of cloud cover in patches but no great swing, just a litte and a bit of nip of the deck. Southee looks dangerous.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I think after the first half hours, it should be the batters pitch...

You mean the first hour rather as it's been 30 mins since play started!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Bit of cloud cover in patches but no great swing, just a litte and a bit of nip of the deck. Southee looks dangerous.

Thanks for the update KKWC!

 

[AZ]

...and Rambo takes his seat in the combox

now its gonna get even tougher.

 

[ScotRaz]

Dirty tactics by southee, by creating footholes for Vetorri, YK doing his best to make it obvious to umpire.

 

[yadunoe]

asad ali im seriously getting doubts whether he has what it take to make big hundreds and not 50s and 60s

 

[Gollum]

You mean the first hour rather as it's been 30 mins since play started!

yes meant the first hour and corrected

 

[Obeid]

Follow on EVERTEDDDD

 

[cricfan967]

2 runs

 

[Sledger]

Well run by the old men.

 

[AZ]

Misbah off the mark with a stylish flick thru square leg.

2 more.

 

[ZAK]

Misbah gets off the mark with a couple.

 

[Amjid Javed]

2 for Misbah, good running.

 

[nads_rocks]

These shots will give Younis Khan some good confidence, this looks promising, we need a big innings from him, we all know Misbah will take 80 balls to get his first few runs!

 

[KingKhanWC]

To be fair to Azhar that nipped back at him but should have dropped his hands.

 

[Sledger]

Just saw Ali's dismissal. What was that crap?

 

[Decipher]

1 more run needed to avoid follow on .... isnt that amazing ???

 

[lord boldemort]

finally off the mark

 

[Gollum]

Rambo on about Azhar's century dilemma....put a sock in it Rambo...you got 2 centuries in 57 tests!!!

 

[AZ]

LOL @ Misbah's white moonch!

 

[ZAK]

1 to Misbah. 157/3.

 

[JibranAnsari]

who likes misbah's batting?

 

[KingKhanWC]

Misbah playing away from his body but gets bat on it for a single. Pakistan looking more positive today.
