[the true passionist]

bazid khan has scored a double ton in domestic....
he will win it for us

 

[Gasherbrum]

alright bazid, hameed ... nothing to loose, everything to gain for the two. lets see if they take this chance.

 

[Usman]

Absouletly ridiculas! without Younis we have surely lost

 

[tahaqureshi]

he's out of pakistan.......literally....when he gets back home the pak ppl are gonna snatch his passport and rip it up into pieces

 

[Usman]

Cricinfo:
3.2 Powell to Bazid Khan, FOUR, outside off, comes forward and edge
past slips, ball races away to third man fence, good way to off
the mark

Is he being sarcastic?

 

[Schiller]

thanks dm

 

[Guest]

4.4 King to Hameed, no run, fuller outside off, Hameed goes for the drive and it beats the outside edge


joker dosent learfn

 

[tahaqureshi]

for those watching.......does hameed look confident?

 

[Schiller]

yasir has cost us a lot in this match waisay

 

[tahaqureshi]

Superb performance by West Indies enforced spectators to come and see their performance

Well atleast we helped revive cricket half way around the world ) ) ) )

 

[Guest]

5.2 Powell to Hameed, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

thank u bye bye

 

[Usman]

the last thing you want when chassing close to 600 is for your best batsmen to get run out and that too on 0

 

[Bailan]

Yasir Owes a good Century and a half here .... for running out Younis

 

[Raz]

Yasir out. Pakistan in DEEP DEEP DOUGH!

 

[fair_play]

bazid khan has scored a double ton in domestic....
he will win it for us

Nope he has scored a triple ton!

In Sri Lanka he averaged 115.00 in the unofficial test series.

But the highest score for Pakistan in this match is 31 so far! I reckon at least one guy is going to get a 50 here.

Maybe Hameed or maybe Akmal, maybe Kamal.

 

[Schiller]

overlord, he has given it, in his own way

 

[Bailan]

I'd take it back ...

 

[Rana Banana]

hameeds enjoying himself
he's fished a lot and he isn't about to stop

 

[salmanbuttfan]

1 2 3

BUtt caught in slips

yk run out

hameed caught behind

 

[Schiller]

rb, hes already orgasmed

 

[Raz]

Yasir was out on a no nall from Powell and not spotted!

 

[Bailan]

Yasir should have been in the Fishing industry .. he is in the wrong field....

 

[Raz]

Hameed wasnt out. It was a no ball!

 

[tahaqureshi]

I never thought Id see this day..Asim Kamal coming in when score is at 16!!!

 

[Usman]

the only thing keeping me interested is that Afridi is to come.

 

[Gasherbrum]

poor old hameed, will this be the end of his tour?
off a no-ball, but the ball was too good for him again.

 

[the true passionist]

hameed gone on a noball

 

[tahaqureshi]

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Schiller]

who was the umpire?

 

[salmanbuttfan]

shephard didnt pick up the NO BALL

 

[Bailan]

YASIR GIVEN OUT ON A NO BALL ...


WHAT THE **** ... PIECE OF **** UMPIRES (i am hoping that a lot of words will be censored out)

to be honest, the game is neither in Batsmen's favour nor is it in bowlers favour ... its in Umpires Favours .... the real dona primas of the cricketing world ... no one can even say a word about umpires or question them in a press confrence

 

[mooz]

now don't u guys start another "shep hates Pakistanis" thread.

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Malik perhaps to be tried as opener in next game?

 

[Schiller]

oh shep was it? )

 

[Usman]

5.5 Powell to Asim Kamal, FOUR, short and wide outside off, cuts over
the slips to third man for four

This makes me angry, we are chasing a huge score and do not need to get risky boundrys with only lower order to come next

 

[Rana Banana]

i think this will be the end of his international career

 

[Schiller]

bazid edgy?

King to Bazid Khan, two runs, outside off and gone through slips
and gully to third man

 

[KB]

Obviously Father Xmas's belly was obscuring the line.

 

[Gasherbrum]

hameed was out, just the fact that it was a no ball. no excuses really, what was he doing fishing at it yet again ?

 

[Usman]

Malik perhaps to be tried as opener in next game?

Thats what I was thinking, would be a wise move, he has got a 50 and I think he would like to spend time and get runs as he did in the odi's.

 

[Rob H]

Obviously Father Xmas's belly was obscuring the line.

)

 

[DM]

Powell overstepped when he dismissed Hameed - really poor umpiring, this is supposed to be an international match

 

[Rana Banana]

hameed needs to be sent to a fishing school

 

[fair_play]

Obviously Father Xmas's belly was obscuring the line.

Sometimes I reckon the fat around his eyes impedes his vision as well!

 

[Raz]

What a piece of fielding by Dwayne Smith! A superb diving effort to stop the boundary and hits the stumps when throwing back when he was on the floor

 

[Usman]

Again I am missing Inzi, remmember in India, he came in at a simmular situation and scored 187. Oh I wish he was playing, yoyo scored some valuable runs as well

 

[catwoman]

What a start by Pakistan :J

 

[Schiller]

no mona, what an end by pakistan

 

[Usman]

well we are well above the required rate just another 200 overs to go!!!

 

[fair_play]

no mona, what an end by pakistan

 

[Schiller]

 

[catwoman]

no mona, what an end by pakistan

LOL.

You are forgetting something again by the way.

 

[Usman]

We should play Bangladesh, we would make them look like Australia!!!

 

[Schiller]

"Powell to Bazid Khan, FOUR, outside off, comes forward, thick edge
past gully for four"

edge again
lets hope the good man gets a good score.

 

[Usman]

Honestly I feel that had I played instead of Pakistan a) I wouldn't have dropped Lara b) I woulnd't have got Younis run out and c) Even with no experience at international level I would have done more justice to Pakistan regarding my score.

 

[Usman]

Pakistan, and Bazid, need some luck!

Hameed had a lot of luck in the first innings but did not make it pay. Ditto Younis Khan. Bazid looked pretty good in the first innings till that inside edge.

Saj says he should have been on the front foot then! I reckon he would have played that better off the backfoot - having watched the highlights!

Such are opinions!

 

[Usman]

I meant instead of Yasir

 

[Gasherbrum]

calling all bazid has limited strokes on the legside folks ...

 

[Usman]

8.4 King to Bazid Khan, FOUR, beautifully driven to covers for four

 

[fair_play]

Brilliant cover drive by Bazid!

According to cricinfo anyway!

Hope he can hang around and get to 30 after which he will be less nervous!

 

[mumtaz]

there are few clouds in the sky

 

[Usman]

8.6 King to Bazid Khan, FOUR, short and wide outside off, a back foot
drive resulted four more

there are few clouds in the sky
Collymore to bowl

 

[Gasherbrum]

rain !!

 

[the true passionist]

yeh really dark clouds....
yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

 

[catwoman]

4 by Asim

Maybe rain will save Pakistan. We need all the luck!

Interestingly for a supposed leg side player Bazid seems to hit lovely boundaries on the off-side. This kid and Kamal need some luck for Pakistan's sake.

 

[Shayan]

covers are on.. great stuff.

 

[Usman]

Covers are on as Allah has some mercy on Pakistan

 

[mumtaz]

Drizzling heavy

 

[catwoman]

Rain!!!!

 

[fair_play]

Yes Bazid cannot play strokes on the leg side.

All his 5 boundaries in this match have come on the off-side. (Amir got the 2nd's report wrong by the way!)

If only he and Butt could improve their leg side play!

 

[Usman]

anybody watching it live, does the rain seem it will last long and how dark is it getting?

 

[adi 101]

something like this would do.......

 

[Fessal]

This is what cricinfo says:
' We hope that its passing rain and it wont last for longer period of time'


Obviosuly cricinfo doesnt represent Pak as we hope its not passing rain.

 

[fair_play]

Rain is not good - if its but temporary.

The moisture will juicen up the pitch, and there will be movement! Last thing Pakistan needed at this time!

 

[adi 101]

everyone do the rain dance \A/ \A/ \A/ \A/ \A/ \A/

 

[Usman]

hopefully it's not temporary and lasts for the next 2 days, that would be great, besides the pitch is covered so hopefully there isn't moisture.

 

[Shayan]

covers coming off
