Official Thread: Pak V W.I. Day 2, Barbados [27/5/05]

[Officer Barbrady]

shepard ke kami reh gaye the. When does he die ? oops sorry retire?

 

[Amir]

We are screwed, we will be lucky to save follow on.

 

[whyhkk]

According to commentators it was out

 

[Usman]

Razzaq gone!

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Cricinfo says it was an inside edge? Can anyone confirm?

 

[Usman]

how much more do we need to avoid the follow on?

 

[octavian]

yaar marooned , ball was missing leg, and laso Edwards didnt even appeal !!!!!!!!!

it was just an oooh from slip cordon and keeper and shepherd lifted his finger.

 

[the true passionist]

not edged but certainly going down...

as for the comentators....they have the only chance to celebrate...even hitting the pad is gr8

 

[the true passionist]

how many more needed to avoid follow on?

 

[Rob H]

how many more needed to avoid follow on?

20 something

 

[the true passionist]

rana and shabbir going for it....the maiden 100

 

[whyhkk]

Shabbir on the attack

 

[the true passionist]

shabbir hitting some sixes and cuts for 4s

 

[the SHA]

oh well, I dont think we'll be hearing much more of the 'finally our chance has come' rhetoric for a while. Good on Windies, and to a certain extent serves Pakistan right for thinking they can dominate them with a B side.

 

[whyhkk]

Shabbir bowled

 

[the true passionist]

shabbir hits his stump out of the ground....

 

[PakPassionate]

Shabbir played a little cemeo LOL

 

[mooz]

is shabbir not aware of the follow-on target
Unbelievable

 

[Usman]

I think in the next our next innings Afridi and Razzaq must come in the middle order, we are seriously lacking experience. The batting order should be:

Butt
Bazid
Razzaq
Younis
Asim
Afridi
Hameed
Akmal

 

[Rob H]

Can the follow on be avoided?

I hope that Pakistan get the runs to pass the follow on mark but it does look doubtful

 

[deviously~fading~away]

NO GUYs commentators saying that W.Indies "wont" enforce the follow-on!!!

 

[tahaqureshi]

i think we will see our bowlers play TODAY..

after we get all out having the follow-on enforced.

) ) ) )

 

[tahaqureshi]

we need 14 more.....can the last partnership hold on that long?

 

[PakPassionate]

14 MORE RUNS REQ TO AVOID THE FOLLOW ON

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

i say no






lets use some reverse pyschology

 

[deviously~fading~away]

Forget about the follow-on.THEY WONT ENFORCE IT!!!

 

[whyhkk]

It would be more helpful for WI to not enfore the follow on

 

[mooz]

doubt that avoiding the follow-on will change the outcome of the match. Once again pakistan has gone to the WI and failed to beat them.

 

[Usman]

12 more runs needed

 

[deviously~fading~away]

It would be stupid for the Windies to enforce the follow on. THere bowlers are tired!

 

[Khalil]

The Windies may not enforce a follow on. They need some good batting practice before the next test

 

[deviously~fading~away]

2 more

 

[Rob H]

Pakistan chipping the runs away

 

[whyhkk]

3 to avoid follow on

 

[mooz]

It would be stupid for the Windies to enforce the follow on. THere bowlers are tired!

tired after 44 overs?

ofcourse another 4 and this will be a moot point.

 

[adi 101]

thats it finished folow on not avoided

 

[deviously~fading~away]

GONE!! They can but wont enforce the follow on

 

[whyhkk]

nope

 

[Rob H]

Amjad i blame you for jinxing Kamran to a duck

 

[Rob H]

edited

 

[Rob H]

Will they enforce it?

 

[tahaqureshi]

then it will be extremely boring.......watching them so high on confidence, means they wont get out!!!!

 

[adi 101]

i dont think so

 

[PakPassionate]

WI not to enforce the follow on

 

[PakPassionate]

WI not to enforce the follow on

 

[mooz]

what a tonic for WestIndian cricket
Next Pakistan revives Zim's fortune.

 

[Usman]

I hope they don't enforce the follow on, those who are saying they won't, how do u know?

 

[Guest]

Must be worried about chasing and Edward's injury

 

[Hash]

we need to bowl them out for 150

 

[tahaqureshi]

how much longer till their innings starts???

 

[B-Man]

Has Pakistan just won!

 

[mooz]

no follow-on

 

[tahaqureshi]

Has Pakistan just won!

????????????????????????

 

[deviously~fading~away]

Usman its obivious. There bowlers are dead tired. + commentators agree with ME!

 

[B-Man]

Has Pakistan just won!

just tryin to lighten the mood folks

 

[PakPassionate]

we need to bowl them out for 150

150 is too much........ 10 is fine

 

[adi 101]

3 runs of the first ball for gayle but not a convincing shot

 

[adi 101]

two runs rather

 

[mooz]

with that 2 I think WestIndies have enough run to declare and win the test match.

 

[adi 101]

rana to gayle
1) two runs not a convincing shot
2) driven back two runs
3) outside ofstumps left alone no run
4) straight drive stoped by rana no run
5) driven back punch of the back foot 3 runs
6) outside ofstump left alone

 

[Officer Barbrady]

thanks adi you are quicker than cricinfo

 

[tahaqureshi]

NOW its 3 runs!!!!!

7 off the first over.....Rana is really losing it

 

[Usman]

OK it seems to me people here are a little down, look at it this way, if Westindies go on to get a massive lead, we can aim for a draw like we did in India, our batsmen can then defend and we can still win the series in the next match when Inzi is back.

 

[adi 101]

shabir to gayle
1) punched back and stoped by shabbir no run
2) hit away on the leg side couple of runs for gayle this is a good start for the windies
3) short and wide and smashed straight for no run
4) wide down legside no wide given though....
5) good ball by shabbir gayle looks to drive but inside edge on to pads no run
6)terible ball wide and smashed for four runs

 

[B-Man]

i doubt our inexperienced batting lineup can survive around 2 days

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Shaabash adi beta

lagta hay gayle ab dhulaye karay ga

 

[Hussain]

perhaps we now have to look for another 4-5 yrs
whn whn we ll again tour carribean
perhaps then we wud be able to win the series

 

[Hash]

there is still hope for rain. Come on rain!

rain!

rain!


rain!

 

[adi 101]

rana to smith
1) outside ofstump no run
2) same ball same result
3) excelent ball hits the pads but outside ofstump might have a lil edge but dosnt carry to keeper actually it was in line of the wickets!!! not a bad shout afterall no run
4) defended on ofstump no run
5) defended just outside ofstump no run
6) outside ofstump left alone

 

[adi 101]

slight delay skysports are moving from skysports 1 to 3...

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Not good adi, you lose points for this.

 

[adi 101]

ok i dont no what ball it is in the over but i will carry on from no were
shabbir to gayle
wide outside gayle trys smashing it but dosnt make contact
defended by gayle on ofstump
thats the end of the over lol

 

[hasan316]

we don't want rain today we want to see Lara score another ton.

 

[deviously~fading~away]

Guys the best part of Pak 2nd Inning will be that when they come out to defend will they send afridi open??? And if not then if he comes at 7-8 and razzaq/asim are defending to save match what will he do?? In my opion players should play normal cricket, keep wickets in hand, take singles and TRY to win the match. BB/c defening for 2/3 days is to much. We should try to chase 400-500 runs

 

[adi 101]

rana to devon
1) played to legside from middlestump no run
2) outside ofstump defended quick single taken and fielding mistake by kaneria it was
3) rana to gayle played to legside from ofstump for no run
4)good ball almost squared gayle up no run
5) bouncer by rana left alone no run
6)short ball again defended for no run

 

[hasan316]

we gave 38 extra.

 

[catwoman]

Dang, we really missed Inzi and Youhana!

 

[adi 101]

shabbir to devon
1) left alone outside ofstump no run
2)same ball same result
3) defended on ofstump no run
4) outside ofstump left alone no run
5) defended on ofstump no run
6) outside ofstump left alone maiden over

 

[Hash]

mona- nope. It was Sami who you missed, no point in lying.

 

[adi 101]

im getting tired of this shall i take a rest?
