Pak Vs SA: Test 3: Day 2: Score Updates

[KB]

Harris is no Warne/Murali, but he's better than Boje/Giles.

A bit of experience he could be Vettori-ish. Needs to work on his fielding and batting, though, does those like a club hack not an international.

Your right.

But I don't think Graeme Smith has much idea about how to use spinners and what fields to set.

 

[the_game]

150 is looking very possible now...

kallis ...

interesting side note...sanex..a shampoo company hired kallis when he was young as a spokesman....i'm not using sanex anymore...

Now that's amusing!

 

[KA$H]

wow!

sami charging kallis - asking for teh bouncer

 

[Sparhawk]

can't follow the WI india match, my remote isnt working.

What was that? over the top sami gets 2 more. Not bad!!

 

[saffer]

there they gp...play some shots.....move the game allong , so I can get back to my life one way or another.....

its torture being a cricket lover.....days of torment....!!!

 

[Saj]

After 2 - a wild heave, we have another single.

Sami moves onto 24

 

[Lightning]

HAHAHA Sami is bluffing Kallis. LOL

 

[KA$H]

great shot - nazir holds the pose - doesnt even try to run

 

[Oxy]

Kallis humbled by Sami! Nuge hoik for 2 Moves to 24

 

[Bilsher007]

Sami batting really well, as i speak kallis has been hit for a lovely straight drive for four by nazir!

Keppler wessels said 180 could be a good target to set hmmmm

Can someone tell me what happened to the rest of our batsmen today ??

 

[Saj]

Shot of the day - serious !

Straight drive through mid on from Nazir

 

[Sparhawk]

Wowzers!!! aww love it. straight drive for four!!

Lead 130.

 

[Lightning]

Sami 50 coming fellas.

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Great shot by Nazir for 4, Moyoesque shot

 

[the_game]

Beautiful straight drive from Nazir. 4 more. 156 for 7.

 

[KA$H]

can't be long b4 Ntini back into the attack

oh well the faster they come...

 

[saffer]

man this board is funny...one minute everyone's killing themselves...the next they all in euphoria......cruel , cruel cricket....man I love this game ...

 

[Saj]

A single to Nazir after that top shot. Driven to deep extra cover.

Excellent batting from these 2.

Drinks !

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Dammit drinks, now something bads gonna happen.

 

[arsal_pakfan]

yaar sirf pachaas aur banalo & the game will be on in a big way

 

[the_game]

I must say, South Africa is giving this away. They should have wrapped this up.

 

[Oxy]

Shot of the inngs by Nazir - straight drive for 4. Held the pose nicely

 

[saffer]

you guys are right about one thing.....how can the commentater (jackman) be so un complimentary of that shot ? Come on ! if it was out number 9 he'd be having an orgasm !!

 

[Saj]

man this board is funny...one minute everyone's killing themselves...the next they all in euphoria......cruel , cruel cricket....man I love this game ...

Saffer thats incorrect. With some, they want to kill themselves even if we are winning

 

[arsal_pakfan]

131 lead already

 

[Oxy]

man this board is funny...one minute everyone's killing themselves...the next they all in euphoria......cruel , cruel cricket....man I love this game ...

I maintain the 'middle-ground' at all times. Easier on the heart and BP levels

 

[darkmoon459]

Dammit drinks, now something bads gonna happen.

wash your mouth of with lifeboye soap....

 

[the_game]

Damn it, that lead due to Boucher might come back to bite us in the rear in the end.

 

[Sparhawk]

why what are they drinking?

Im scared of ntini, he'l be back soon.

 

[Gunner786]

dravid must think hes some sort of terminator with those goggles

kumble gets a wicket guys so im back for pakistan match

 

[Nauman]

Saffer thats incorrect. With some, they want to kill themselves even if we are winning

I am not one of those anymore, I have seen the light Oxy used to talk about.

 

[Sacrilicious]

This is some impressive stuff by the Pakistani tail - so often when the chips are down they're like a cornered tiger.

 

[Toony™®]

at least pak will score more than the first innings.

 

[DotCom]

Shot of the day by Nazir ..

can some one pull the stats ... I think NAZIR has more runs than Farhat and Hafeez ... in the SERIES... (well maybe not hafeez b/c of his 32... )

 

[alghazzali]

We got 212 aswell yesterday, so i expect pakistan to do the same, everyone else is doing really well.

 

[Bilsher007]

I am really dissappointed with the big three younis, inzamam and yousuf failing, i am not surprised about the openers and hameed failing as they are sitting ducks.

 

[Oxy]

I am not one of those anymore, I have seen the light Oxy used to talk about.

And that is very scary talk

 

[saffer]

ntini is useless to tail -enders...seriously.....but thats credit to the man....his wickets are normally batsmen...

 

[UJ]

The scary thing is that Kaneria hasn't even batted yet.

SAF are really letting this go

 

[Saj]

I think Smith is overbowling Harris. Ntini should be bowling.

 

[SlowRightArm]

A single to Nazir after that top shot. Driven to deep extra cover.

Excellent batting from these 2.

Drinks !

On the house?

 

[the_game]

I am not one of those anymore, I have seen the light Oxy used to talk about.

Enough with the sar-ka-aazam Nauman!

 

[DOOSRA95]

How well Tail batting?

Is it me or just that these two tailenders are showing pak top order Specficly top 4 how to go about batting.

Must be top notch bowling from south african's.

 

[kablooee87]

I'd much rather my team win then India get battered...

true. But if my team IS losing, india getting battered is a bit of consolation.

 

[Lightning]

It's too late now. Sami and Nazir are set. Not even Ntini can remove their might.

 

[DotCom]

I am not one of those anymore, I have seen the light Oxy used to talk about.

would you like to buy a Noose ...

actually I heard Yasir and Imran are giving them away for free...

 

[KA$H]

pitch looks to have eased out

 

[Noreen]

im still surprised that asim kamal wasn't given a chance

 

[saffer]

come on boys.........we dont want to chase more than 150 !!

 

[Lightning]

true. But if my team IS losing, india getting battered is a bit of consolation.

That's pathetic man.

 

[ahsan17]

pitch looks to have eased out

The ball is older, that's why. Its still very difficult with the new ball.

 

[Bilsher007]

Guys what you think what target would be good to set for saffies to chase ???

 

[the_game]

true. But if my team IS losing, india getting battered is a bit of consolation.

You have no idea what I could do to buy a win here and brag on the Indian forums all year long!

 

[saffer]

pitch hasnt eased out....the ball is old......south africa should bat backwards to see off the new ball....

 

[Noreen]

Sami and Nazir have so far added 36 runs for the 8th wickets and Pakistan now lead by 131 runs. Anything above 160 will be a fighting total. Bit of a crises building up for South Africa and they desperately need a wicket now

Cricinfo

 

[DotCom]

Commies talking about Pitch TURNING ... can HAFEEZ do anything to help ASIF and KANERIA ..

what about Farhat.. with a few inoccuous deliveries.. .

 

[Lightning]

im still surprised that asim kamal wasn't given a chance

Yeah, tell me about it.

 

[arsal_pakfan]

350

 

[Bilsher007]

come on boys.........we dont want to chase more than 150 !!

Why is that ???

 

[DotCom]

Why is that ???

cuz they scurred ...

 

[Sparhawk]

170, i'd be happy with 170. But the more the merrier right now.

 

[Ahmad]

come on boys.........we dont want to chase more than 150 !!

Hell we do mate!

 

[Lightning]

btw, i haven't seen any wicket fall today. As long as I watch, Pak will be fine.

 

[Easa]

160/7! These two fighting, showing alot of grit. Well done.

Current Partnership: 39(73)

 

[Sparhawk]

good shot by nazir!! pulled for 33333

 

[Bilsher007]

Why the hell the top order batsmen could'nt bat the way nazir and sami are batting ??? as i speak nazir pulls kallis for three runs, nearly went for four but long boundary and amla pulls the ball away.

 

[DotCom]

Amla throws like a girl ... but good effort to save 2

 

[Saj]

3 more to Nazir. Good pull shot through mid wicket

42 run partnership

 

[Lightning]

but i have to use the washroom now. damn, sorry guys...I've let my country down. brb

 

[the_game]

Why is that ???

Pitch is playing tricks Bilsher, that's why. Kaneria will most likely spin it a lot, and Asif can be steady as usual.

 

[Easa]

Why is that ???

Psychological barrier.

 

[arsal_pakfan]

haha highest partnership of the innings..keep up the good work boys!!...30 to 40 mins more & InshAllah we will be back in the game!

 

[DotCom]

Why the hell the top order batsmen could'nt bat the way nazir and sami are batting ??? as i speak nazir pulls kallis for three runs, nearly went for four but long boundary and amla pulls the ball away.

NEW BALL JITTERS...

 

[darkmoon459]

50 more runs ,and it will be intresting

 

[saffer]

listen man.....pressure of losing at home in south africa is worth an extra 100 runs......the public here are ruthless....they can stand losing...

so 150 is like 250...i'm serious!!

 

[the_game]

but i have to use the washroom now. damn, sorry guys...I've let my country down. brb

Coward.

 

[Oxy]

Amla throws like a girl ... but good effort to save 2

He usually bats like one also.

 

[Saj]

The lead is now 137.

Can we get up to 180 lead !

Credit to both Nazir and Sami, they have fought well.

 

[kablooee87]

Commies talking about Pitch TURNING ... can HAFEEZ do anything to help ASIF and KANERIA ..

what about Farhat.. with a few inoccuous deliveries.. .

why are you still here? I thought the cricket was over. You spelled it all out in a pretty detailed manner earlier, no?

 

[TheSaint]

Those pics of Sami & Nazeer are cool- they look like Warriors!!
