[garbage_can2003]

Iqbal has scored more than tresco and peierson so there is some use for him after all.

[Easa]

Thats the way to bat, Nazir

 

[Awesome Anjum]

Four from Nazir.

Over Panesar's head.

 

[KB]

This is in no way an attack on Kammy, but his overseas performance in the WI, against Aus in Aus, I am not sure if he has toured SA and now against Eng in Eng is really making me wonder, whether he is a sub-continental only player as a batsmen...

If he can score on the sort of pitch we saw at Karachi, then he should be able to score elsewhere, outside Asia too.

 

[ShowStopper]

Now thats my boy come guys hit out now

 

[iZeeshan]

Monty bowling very well here.

 

[pak_all_the_way]

[Amjid Javed]

partnership 31 off 48 balls (good rate this...!!)

 

[iZeeshan]

I feel a lead of 300 coming on...

 

[the_game]

Good one from Nazir. No point in blocking, he is batting with the right attitude.

 

[ShowStopper]

Shankin of Bat yeah Baby

 

[iZeeshan]

partnership 31 off 48 balls (good rate this...!!)

It wasn't until the last over.

 

[Bailan]

Nazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzir for prezzz

 

[iZeeshan]

Nazir looking WAYYYY better then Faisla.

 

[iZeeshan]

A wide one from Harmison. How come we don't get a run for that?

 

[Easa]

429-6, 256 runs lead.

 

[ShowStopper]

Nazir looking WAYYYY better then Faisla.

Why is Faisal not attacking?

 

[Amjid Javed]

single to fine leg for iqbal.

 

[Easa]

Naved was blabbering about Inzi being selfish - then what about FI?

 

[iZeeshan]

429-6, 256 runs lead.

That's good enough for a fairly easy chase (say England make 400), maybe even an innings.

 

[KB]

Faisal will probably look to hit Monty over his head if given the chance

 

[ShowStopper]

A wide one from Harmison. How come we don't get a run for that?

Cus we are making to many already

 

[iZeeshan]

Tcuked to leg for single.

 

[iZeeshan]

I just have this feeling that Faisal is kept to defend while the tailenders attack, so we don't collapse. We should make it the other way around

 

[Amjid Javed]

straight drive for 1 by nazir.

 

[iZeeshan]

Yall think England will bat today, if there are no more rain breaks?

 

[Easa]

431-6

 

[iZeeshan]

Single after a shot down the ground.

 

[pak_all_the_way]

holdings a batsmen!!!!!

 

[pak_all_the_way]

[Amjid Javed]

nazir dropped as he lofted monty down ground.

2 runs.

 

[KB]

DOWN! Hoggard drops one

 

[Easa]

Hoggard drops it!

5th drop catch by England in this match.

 

[iZeeshan]

straight drive for 1 by nazir.

by Faisal.

 

[iZeeshan]

Big shot, almost caught.

 

[ShowStopper]

431-6

How do you post that so clearly ?

 

[KB]

Like a lot of tail-enders Nazir playing in block-bash fashion

 

[Easa]

Mikey Holding had 6 Test 50's. Wow, didn't know about that.

 

[iZeeshan]

Honestly speaking, that chance was as hard as the one Monty dropped.

 

[Easa]

How do you post that so clearly ?

Clearly?

 

[James]

A nice little fightback from Hoggard and Harmison in the last hour but I fear the lead is too big to save the game. Well who knows, despite a defecit if we bat really well we can get in a position to save the game or win it, it has been done before, you just never know what you will get from England I suppose.

If only the English bowlers line and length had been anything near today's over the first 2 days...

 

[pak_all_the_way]

444

 

[Easa]

Iqbal edges it over the slips.

 

[Amjid Javed]

4 over slips for iqbal.

 

[iZeeshan]

Mahmood on. Four runs.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 437/6

 

[pak_all_the_way]

i'm scared that this innings by faisal gonna keep him in the team

 

[ShowStopper]

Clearly?

I mean usually when I post it like this:
Batsmen R B 4s 6s SR
Faisal Iqbal (rhb) 20 45 3 0 44.44 striker
Shahid Nazir (rhb) 16 27 2 1 59.25 non-striker


Bowlers O M R W Econ
MS Panesar (sla) 22.0 4 73 0 3.31 (0nb, 0w)
SJ Harmison (rf) 30.0 6 119 2 3.96 (1nb, 3w)


But your is so clear
