Official day 2 thread.Pak vs Ind.Karachi

[samisback]

this is getting a bit silly now.....zaheer khan batting like a world class batter (well made to look like one
india trail by 28 now

time for freedi or danish

 

[octavian]

ohhhhhhhhhhhh f******K

 

[nafajafam]

215-8

 

[161]

time to bring afridi in...

he's the best at cleaning up tailenders

 

[karachiite]

Okey Dokey ....

Come on MIG miyan, expected more of a fight from you.

 

[nafajafam]

2 runs taken.

 

[MIG]

Time for Afridi - all Pak captains seem to have something against using him - they think its some kind of admission of defeat - they dont realize that he is actually an attacking option !

 

[nafajafam]

217-8. Too much respect being given to these two !!

 

[karachiite]

We might as well try Afridi. Faster men havent even looked like taking a wocket since these two came together.

 

[samisback]

rambooooooo,s voice is fading n arun laal coming back to life....i must add poor captaincy again by younis khan here hehasnt got that killer insticnt which comes naturally!

 

[nafajafam]

Zaheer has a go at that and misses it,.
217-8

 

[nafajafam]

Short ball and Zaheer ducks under it. 217-8

 

[hatch101]

Danish still hasnt bowled...he should be brought on...or maybe afridi would be better

 

[octavian]

asif is looking very tired

 

[samisback]

freedi comes in yay

 

[karachiite]

Time for Afridi - all Pak captains seem to have something against using him - they think its some kind of admission of defeat - they dont realize that he is actually an attacking option !

Is that shower room incident still there in the back ground?

 

[nafajafam]

No movement off the pitch, time to get spinner in

 

[MIG]

Come on MIG miyan, expected more of a fight from you.

I know my limitations !

 

[samisback]

asif is looking very tired

what do u expect 50 overs shared among 3 bowlers..!

 

[nafajafam]

Lala in now. a good change

 

[samisback]

nearly a wicket........beats pathan

 

[nafajafam]

First ball drifts, good sign for Lala

 

[samisback]

221 .....with that 4.......................

 

[Azam6380]

Come on lala!

 

[MIG]

asif is looking very tired

Do you blame him ? Bechara has been bowled to the ground... hope he doesnt do an Umer Gul on us !!

 

[octavian]

what do u expect 50 overs shared among 3 bowlers..!

ok....

don't shoot me

 

[nafajafam]

Ball quicker and keeps line. good ball that.

 

[karachiite]

Comeon Shahid Bhai, boht ala boht ala

 

[nafajafam]

Really wide and driven for 4 by Pathan.

 

[nafajafam]

221-8

 

[MIG]

49.2 Afridi to Pathan, no run, slips through a wrong 'un, that went the other way, beats the edge, good one

So could this be a factor in the 4th innings ?

 

[karachiite]

nahiii

 

[badxhah]

ball doin nothing now for both seamers

 

[MIG]

btw - this is a magnificent All round performance by Pathan , 5 fer and then a potentially match saving innings ( thanks to some bad fielding etc but that is part of cricket - how you make use of your chances is what makes good players )

 

[nafajafam]

Asif continues.. poor guy must be so tired. first ball drive and 2 runs taken

 

[badxhah]

Looks Like Pakistan have resinged to the fact that the leads in now bye bye n gone wid the wind

 

[Somali Pirate]

This is where a warne and a mcgrath could be handy.

 

[Oxy]

Similar to yesterday. Ind use dthe conditions-got the wkts, then we settled and got the runs....now Ind doing the same.

I dont think we should be to harsh on our boys, but the poor fielding has cost us.

We need to be batting in the next half hourt to prevent Ind getting the conditions to suit them

 

[nafajafam]

Edged and goes for 4 down 3rd man.

 

[samisback]

time for some paratha action!

 

[nafajafam]

227-8

 

[nafajafam]

Wide of offstump, zaheer chases it and misses.

 

[samisback]

229 now india trail by just 18....drinks...

 

[nafajafam]

Dropped catchh by Akhtar !!!!!! Drinks break

 

[Azam6380]

Baqwas.......

 

[Somali Pirate]

ahahaha.this is so painfully funny.

 

[Oxy]

Good try by Shaoaib-but spilled. 3r drop

 

[octavian]

oh for gods sake !

 

[samisback]

dont worry peeps im onto parathas very soon now!!!

 

[MIG]

Wide of offstump, zaheer chases it and misses.

hope that Zaheer will pull a muscle doing that - other than that , I dont see us avoiding chasing a lead !

Frankly speaking - we need to bat out of our skins for the next day atleast...

 

[samisback]

Frankly speaking - we need to bat out of our skins for the next day atleast...

if we can do it against england after trailing by more then 150...n come back n win that one at multan so we can do it here as well inshAllah!!!!

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

Pathan must be laughing... 3 bloody dropped catches no matter what he does it seems like we dont want him to get out 2day...

 

[samisback]

Pathan must be laughing... 3 bloody dropped catches no matter what he does it seems like we dont want him to get out 2day...

its his lucky test match..............whatever he touches seems to be turning into gold!

 

[samisback]

well shoaib used to be a gud catcher like 5 yrz ago wonder why he stopped catching like before

 

[Somali Pirate]

i want an irfan century.


punish pakistan for such mistakes

 

[nafajafam]

hope that Zaheer will pull a muscle doing that - other than that , I dont see us avoiding chasing a lead !

Frankly speaking - we need to bat out of our skins for the next day atleast...

InshaAllah. Dropped catches will always hurt. India have batted well though, the pitch is also playing easy. Pakistan will do good while batting.

 

[Oxy]

Heads up boys....still 3 1/2 days to go!

You guys give up too easily....

 

[nafajafam]

233-8

 

[samisback]

i would like to know from bob what feilding practice n drills they do.......they cant seem to last half a day without dropping n misfeilding!!!

 

[karachiite]

pathan paying back for the treatment he got in the first 2 matches with interest. Not sure what his father will make of it.

 

[samisback]

i want an irfan century.


punish pakistan for such mistakes

steady now!

 

[nafajafam]

Good over. 233-8

 

[the_game]

This is frustrating and quite disappointing.

 

[MIG]

12 runs to go and closing in .... a lead will be established - what is our apetite at the moment ? +50 is manageable ?

 

[nafajafam]

i would like to know from bob what feilding practice n drills they do.......they cant seem to last half a day without dropping n misfeilding!!!

Yaar it's more to do with losing focus of the game.

 

[Oxy]

i want an irfan century.

Another addition for my 'slit wrist' thread

 

[nafajafam]

Asif has really impressed.

 

[samisback]

whats younis khan smiling about hes the one who started it by dropping pathan

 

[nadeem]

"want an irfan century.


punish pakistan for such mistakes"

I dont even know what to say to that

Check my 'slit wrist' thread...

 

[Azam6380]

Dissapointing but i think everyone is forgetting we were 0-3 after the first over......So not too bad....Still a long way to go in this match.....

 

[nafajafam]

What's annoyed me more is the commentary by Arun and Shiva

 

[Usman Chadda]

Shoaib is a farce right now I tell you. His bowling is in tatters and his fielding. . . well Kaneria can match his standards! Looks like Pathan will make sure India get past the score of 245. Shoaib's drop will cost us big time!

India - 229/6

 

[samisback]

Yaar it's more to do with losing focus of the game.

i swear if u were anywhere near me u were a goner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
233 india slower one well played by khan

 

[Somali Pirate]

c'mon fellas.


sixes and fours.

 

[nafajafam]

Short delivery, good one that.

 

[badxhah]

A partnership was bound to happen at some time .. wth ..anyways

[samisback]

cav smells a wicket in this over by freeedi!

 

[Somali Pirate]

my attempt at jinxing is not working

 

[badxhah]

Arun Lal n Shiva ,,,,have ants in their pants
