official day 5 thread

[nafajafam]

126-5. good over from afridi

 

[nafajafam]

sami probably?

 

[nafajafam]

4 off shoaib.

 

[waquas_uk]

shoaib not upto it. we realy need to win this match so he can rest the last match

 

[nafajafam]

Shoaib looking off steam. This should be his last over

 

[aabbasi]

Shoaib please get rid of this chipko jones...

 

[the_game]

Match is slipping away towards a draw guys.

 

[nafajafam]

shoaib changing sides.

 

[octavian]

i feel for our pacers,, they are just about the best in the world, yet they have to bowl on feather-bed pitches like this

 

[aabbasi]

Lets try something else... give one over to salman butt.

Left arm spinner.... may be he can exploit the ruff...

 

[nafajafam]

nasty delivery from shoaib. flintoff manages to keep it away. shoaib goes upto flintoff and has a word. haha

 

[octavian]

Butt is not on the field abbasi

 

[aabbasi]

shoaib should continue from round the wicket to jones...

 

[aabbasi]

kyon ??? kya hua butt sab. ko..
lagta hai tea break main laasi chik dee hai

 

[deviously~fading~away]

Impossible catch missed,

 

[nafajafam]

very sharp chance at slip not taken

 

[waquas_uk]

how about malik?
im sure if inzi has a word with sami he can fire him up

 

[deviously~fading~away]

Flintoff GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[nafajafam]

inzi goin off the field. shoaib continues over

 

[nafajafam]

Outtttttttttttttttttttttt

 

[deviously~fading~away]

4 fielder were ready to catch that!

 

[octavian]

gone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shoaiby.. kya baat hai yaar teri

 

[AT1]

Finalllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Flintoffffffffffff Byebye!!!!1111111

 

[the_game]

Flintoff gone!

 

[deviously~fading~away]

The shoulder are up again, for a moment they were starting to fall down

 

[the true passionist]

can akhtar take a couple here?
should go back over...and bowl inswing

 

[aabbasi]

how about malik?
im sure if inzi has a word with sami he can fire him up

O yar bhool jaao sami ko.... he has only one type of delivery...half volley up to the batsman...
Sami is more dangerous if he pitches it at good length and bends his back.. He has shorter height, and it is difficult to play skiddier bouncers.

Par kon samjhay us ko..

 

[AT1]

i just cllosed my eyes then he got out, how awesome is that

 

[nafajafam]

we got game boys?

 

[Kashif]

Yeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaa!!!! 4 more !

 

[the_game]

Wrap it up Shoaib.

 

[nafajafam]

i just cllosed my eyes then he got out, how awesome is that

keep them closed

 

[Kashif]

i just cllosed my eyes then he got out, how awesome is that

Pants try going to sleep

 

[waquas_uk]

i still think it will be draw

 

[deviously~fading~away]

almost edged there......Everything happening now, crowd is alive again

 

[nafajafam]

another appeal. not out though.

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

weneed to gey one of these 2 asap

 

[Kashif]

ooooooooh...close one. Nowhere near bat on replay. Short pitch ball going down legside.

 

[Raz]

Come on lads!!!!!!! 4 more just 4 more!!!!

 

[deviously~fading~away]

All the fielder in the circle now, no one in the outfield

 

[aabbasi]

I think shoaib should continue from round the wicket and target the tail-enders rib cage.
They won't like this awkward angle, as it is very very difficult to play.

 

[nafajafam]

umbrella field in operation

 

[AT1]

haha its gonna tough going to sleep or closing my eyes again

 

[the_game]

i still think it will be draw

Yeah, England tail is quite strong. But there is no tail in the world that can resist Shoaib when he is on fire.

 

[Shoaib A]

caught behind turned down!!!

 

[waquas_uk]

inshAllah we do this

Allah hu Akbar

 

[nafajafam]

40-45mins play remaining

 

[deviously~fading~away]

Akhtar getting Gile ready for a yoker now

 

[aabbasi]

38.2 Shoaib Akhtar to Giles, no run, short ball, down the leg side,
tries to play at it, looks like inner edge to keeper, shout for
caught behind, declinese, replay confirms that Gils nick that one


kya mazak hai ??

[CrickFan]

It mush have been hair again..wait till 2 more wickets fall ..he will offer bad light to england

 

[Kashif]

I dont think there was a nick.

 

[immubhai]

Giles was out caught behind , umpire did nt give, replay showed he was clearly out

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

come on afridi sort giles out liek u did in the 1st inns

 

[nafajafam]

very attacking field. hope something happens

 

[immubhai]

I dont think there was a nick.

sorry pal, it was out, umpire did not give

 

[nafajafam]

80.2mph fast one from afridi

 

[yk]

Umpires having a REALLY POOR game!!!!

 

[nafajafam]

Giles was out caught behind , umpire did nt give, replay showed he was clearly out

no nick bro.

 

[AT1]

how many overs of the day lefT?

 

[deviously~fading~away]

Drinks called

 

[the true passionist]

oh drinks...
england will get it..

 

[nafajafam]

drinks break. arghhhhhhhh

 

[immubhai]

Giles was clear out..............kia yaar, kia haraami pun haai umpires ka, why did not he call the 3rd upmire

 

[alghazzali]

It is a draw. But I think they should have got Pietersen out quicker. With his inability to play the first few deliveries, he always gives you a chance, Pakistan didn't take it.

 

[the_game]

Pakistan will go into Lahore with confidence; this last day has really helped us even if it's a draw.

 

[nedian21]

those who are watching live can u plz tell us whats the commentators saying regarding light. seems we will have 30 min to get 4 wkts

Are you watching the match? That was most probably an error on the part of the cricinfo employee.

 

[the true passionist]

oh come on...physio out on every ball

 

[deviously~fading~away]

Jones taking more time(hurt)

 

[immubhai]

[nafajafam]

more time wasting

 

[Nauman]

Nope Faisalabad stadium doesnt have floodlights.

 

[deviously~fading~away]

England should get an award for wasting so much time
