Poor


What a BEAST, what a test.

I remember watching that match oh it was a brilliant partnership and Akmal was playing aggressive cricket, the feeling was horrible when Inzi got run out 3 short of his century too.

Due to the lead going below 100 me thinks?

 

[Sledger]

Maiden again.

 

[*sallu*]

Oh God, C'mon Younis Wake up ffs

 

[ZAK]

2 to Misbah.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Couple to Misbah

 

[Sledger]

Good shot by Misbah. Two.

 

[JellyBro]

 

[ZAK]

Well fielded Guptill.

 

[UP]

They have slowed down a bit too much.

 

[ZAK]

James Franklin's been warned for running on the pitch.

 

[ZAK]

1 to Misbah.

 

[Sledger]

Warning for the left arm spinner, a rare sight. Maybe he wanted to rough the pitch up for more turn.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

261/3

 

[nads_rocks]

They have slowed down a bit too much.

I think they are playing at a good pace, slowly knocking down the runs and building a solid partnership, I don't mind as long as they both end up with centuries. Once the trailed runs are wiped out, they will up the pace coz then is all about piling up a lead.

 

[ZAK]

@ Franklin's speed.

 

[Sledger]

Decent over.

 

[ZAK]

261/3.

 

[Sledger]

95 behind still.

 

[classic]

love the ground ..so laid back people sitting on the grass clear blue sky...superb setting

 

[ZAK]

Maiden.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Another maiden from Vettori.

 

[Sledger]

Yet another maiden.

 

[ZAK]

YK needs to wake up from his slumber.

I understand your points.

We haven't scored a boundary for at least 6-7 overs now.

We need to wipe up the trailing runs and build some lead today, if we want to win.

 

[nads_rocks]

I have a silly question which may sound dumb but am gonna ask anyway coz am not sure...

When a player scores a 50 that goes down in their personal stats as half century, if that 50 turns into a century then the 50 gets wiped out and is added on the list of century which I understood a while back, I know silly me.

When a player scores a double century or triple century does that count as an extra 1 or 2 centuries on their stat list Or just cound as 1 century?

 

[JellyBro]

runs have dried up

 

[Sledger]

Drive, not timed - gets one.

 

[ZAK]

Single to Younis.

 

[JibranAnsari]

pakistan need to increase speed a bit

 

[Sledger]

Younis missed out on a half volley there. Not sure what's happened, did someone put something in his drink?

1 century.

 

[shan]

OK this rather pathetic, both are set they need to score some runs. 2-0 is what Pakistan should be looking for and get back to proper test playing nation.

 

[*sallu*]

42 overs left today

We should make about 120, so we'll be leading about 20-30 by stumps today

Only 1 century.

 

[nads_rocks]

1 century.

Yeh I thought so too but why, shouldn't it count as 2 for double or 3 for triple I mean it still is another century of runs?

 

[Sledger]

Lol, NZ starting to worry about the factor.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

262/3

 

[Sledger]

94 behind.

 

[ZAK]

262/3.

 

[JibranAnsari]

hilarious song )

 

[SAF]

Did things change btwn Miandad and Imran after that innings coz to be left hanging dry at 280* could leave a bad mark btwn player and captain?

I think they squashed the feud with that big hug after winning the WC . One of the best moments in Pakistan history..

 

[classic]

Good question..nads ..the answer is 1

 

[JellyBro]

from the looks of things, the ODI series should be a walk in the park for us. If Afridi manages to screw it up then God help him

 

[Sledger]

Play and miss.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Beaten

 

[Sledger]

Much quicker slider. Well played by Younis.

 

[nads_rocks]

Well I did say the question may sound dumb hehe

To be honest I never really used to watch a whole test match or a full days play until recently I just used to catch up on the scores but since ave started watching a full test match and whole days play its not that bad coz you can see a player taking their time playing diff shots and all.... Strong points, weak points

So if am not sure of a something then am sure I have every right to ask whether dumb or not

 

[UP]

For God's sake start scoring.

They have scored 6 runs in more than half hour.

 

[ZAK]

Maiden.

 

[Sledger]

Looks like another maiden.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Can Vettori do anything else than bowl maidens?

 

[SAF]

too slow now.

 

[*sallu*]

Another Maiden lol

 

[Sledger]

And is.

 

[JellyBro]

surprisingly i haven't seen Younis play his favorite sweep short in this innings. New strategy?

 

[JibranAnsari]

7 runs in last 10

 

[SAF]

Misbah needs to smash a 6!!!

 

[ZAK]

1 to Misbah.

 

[Sledger]

Franklin really is a village level bowler. )


So gentle.

1 double or tripple century, and no century is counted, it is wiped out.

Also, only stupid question is the one not asked. Do not let these guys get you!

[Sledger]

Not timed but a good shot for three.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Three runs to Younis.

 

[ZAK]

[UP]

Thank God they ran 3!!!!!

 

[nads_rocks]

[PakCrikNeedsFixin]

Heart in mouth moment thought he was gone

 

[Sledger]

FFS, Misbah nearly threw it away.

 

[JibranAnsari]

[ZAK]

Drops short.

 

[Sledger]

That was another pie they missed out on - juicy half volley.
