Pak Vs Sa: Test 3: Day 3: Can we do it ?

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

amla walks....i think bc of his faith...subhan Allah

 

[12thMan]

I hope Asif doesn't et fined for not turning around to apeal. balaay balayy

 

[mooz]

well done Amla, making Bucknor look like the jackass he is.

 

[Amir]

AMLA CAUGHT BEHIDN! I cant even type properly because i am so excited. 6 to go! I think Boucher will be key to get since he can score fast!

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Wah!!!We are right back in it!!!!!!!

 

[Amir]

amla walks....i think bc of his faith...subhan Allah

Well it was quite straight forward. The ball clearly deviated after his bat. if you didnt walk....may god have mercy upon him!

 

[the true passionist]

Amazing stuff from Asif...but Pakistan must not forget that they have to keep taking wickets. We cant let Prince/Kallis settle. Both are technically sound.

 

[Bailan]

Pakistan giving a Fight and half to SA ...

Keep it up

 

[iZeeshan]

Just have to get Kallis and like de Villiers until they get to 70 and bamazzo!

 

[Osman]

huge wicket !!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

gotta get the lefty out asap

 

[12thMan]

39-4. SA needs 122 more

 

[KB]

The ball to Amla actually seamed in, rather than holding its line

 

[KA$H]

phantoms in teh saffies minds now - they are gonna see ghosts in this pitch

 

[Amir]

Even if we lose this series...surely they have to give Asif MoS.

 

[KB]

South Africa cautious and nervous

 

[Saj]

Danish is the one who troubles Prince, hopefully he'll get him again.

 

[darkmoon459]

asif ,what a great asset for pakistan ,19 wkts / 3 matches so far.Inshallah 2-3 more from him .

 

[the_game]

Run rate should slow down even further. Pakistan might build even more momentum now for another wicket.

 

[madaboutlfc]

oh yaar bhangra time !!!!!

hold your horses bruv.. need 6 more before it

 

[Mike Bassett]

Thankfully third umpire used!

 

[darkmoon459]

appeal for a catch ,

 

[Sheikh_Ji]

Mohammad Asif to Amla, OUT, THAT'S GONE! Oh boy, it's all happening this morning. Amla was worked over by Asif, who pitched this one on off stump, Amla offered a straight bat but the ball took the outside edge and went through to Akmal. Asif knows it's out and Amla walks

 

[iZeeshan]

Kallis maybe out?

 

[mooz]

kallis is safe, I think.

 

[darkmoon459]

not out ,

 

[Mike Bassett]

Kallis saved from third umpire

 

[KB]

That was a shocking appeal! Clearly off the pitch

 

[iZeeshan]

THats not out. But good bowling.

 

[ali_ed2006]

Kallis and Prince partnership will be crucial!

 

[mooz]

why doesn't rameez tell Jackman to shut the f up?

 

[Mike Bassett]

these 2 are the dangermen if we gets them early the match is ours!

 

[madaboutlfc]

That was a shocking appeal! Clearly off the pitch

you wont win the lottery unless you buy the ticket

 

[CricketBuff]

my worry is they are antoginizing the umpires. Asif shd hv waited for bucknor's decision and parker has been put under too much pressure already. come on guys, keep the umpires on your side.

 

[darkmoon459]

40/4.............nice over by kaneria

 

[kablooee87]

asif needs one more wicket to be the top wicket taker in this series.

 

[iZeeshan]

This is the key partnership. It must be broken!

 

[mooz]

these 2 are the dangermen if we gets them early the match is ours!

well there is also boucher. He is such a tremendous fighter, i think he will be the prize wicket today

 

[Mike Bassett]

pleading appeal turned down for asif

 

[KB]

Good decision from Bucknor, missing leg.

 

[mooz]

maybe Kallis will walk too. Maybe not.

 

[kablooee87]

I have to agree with the saffie commentator here. That appeal was not needed.

 

[pakmandanish]

pleading appeal turned down for asif

fuller in length, just outside off and nips back sharply

-> so much turn - > is that correct?

 

[Amir]

Big shout against Kallis but going down leg slightly. I was hoping Bucknor give us a bad decision in our favour

 

[Saj]

maybe Kallis will walk too. Maybe not.

he wont walk, even his middle stump is flattened !

 

[Mike Bassett]

maybe Kallis will walk too. Maybe not.

Saffies have been tought by there forefathers not walk even if you know you've nicked it!

 

[KB]

Excellent over from Asif. Each ball asking a qusetion of Kallis.

 

[iZeeshan]

Asif has 49 wickets! Just one more boi!

 

[the_game]

Damn it Asif is bowling wonderfully. I really hope he gets Kallis in this spell.

 

[mooz]

Saffies have been tought by there forefathers not walk even if you know you've nicked it!

not a big fan of any forefather comment.

 

[CricketBuff]

test cricket at its toughest and very best, no place for the weak hearted

 

[kablooee87]

Saffies have been tought by there forefathers not walk even if you know you've nicked it!

Hello Mike. Haven't seen you around PP before. Welcome to PP...even if it's a belated welcome.

 

[Danishau]

comeon danish, go get em' son.

 

[12thMan]

hopefully we get another stumping chance against Prince.

 

[ali_ed2006]

well fielded danish!

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Now the question is....will the supporting cast(M Sami and S Nazir) be able to keep up the pressure?

 

[ali_ed2006]

great delivery to end the over

 

[ali_ed2006]

hopefully we get another stumping chance against Prince.

and hopefully akmal doesnt miss it this time

 

[iZeeshan]

More maidens. We really need to break this before they get set.

 

[the_game]

Now the question is....will the supporting cast(M Sami and S Nazir) be able to keep up the pressure?

 

[KB]

Asif certainly getting the ball to seam this morning, especially to seam in

 

[CricketBuff]

does 40/4 mean 100/10

 

[Adil Dewan]

Does anyone know why sopcast isnt working for this one?

 

[mooz]

at this rate, SA will need to bat into the 5th day to win this match.

 

[slix10]

Looks like they're going at a rate of 1 run per over, leaves us with 120 overs to bowl them out.

 

[TheSaint]

Great start for Asif so far, lets hope Kaneria gets back into the act and gets another one. Prince is a chipkoo player as is Kallis- rest are hit & miss ones. Game on-ComeOn The BOYZZZ...

 

[PlanetPakistan]

SA are in a bit of a shell so i hope this would give a chance for the likes of M Sami to settle in!

 

[Mike Bassett]

Hello Mike. Haven't seen you around PP before. Welcome to PP...even if it's a belated welcome.

Thanks kablooee for the welcome!

 

[Saj]

btw Danish I think needs 2 more wickets for 200 in tests

 

[Amir]

If we can get one more wicekt...they will feel pressured and we will have the edge (within like 5-10 runs)

 

[Nice-N-Fresh]

Damn it Asif is bowling wonderfully. I really hope he gets Kallis in this spell.

Yeh. Otherwise its sa´s game

 

[TheSaint]

1 for Asif to 50 and 2 for Danish for 200- Hope they can make it as memorable as it can be with a Test/Series win - First in SA.

 

[mooz]

Yeh. Otherwise its sa´s game

sami will get kallis.

 

[Amir]

btw Danish I think needs 2 more wickets for 200 in tests

Will he give us a run around like Nitini?

 

[Amir]

Damn Kallis. Why can't he have a brain explosion or get a bad decision in our favour? lol

 

[immubhai]

Oh Please Allah mian, Save our good repo and bless the team with success!

 

[Saj]

Saffies no doubt waiting for Asif to be rested and have a go at Sami/Nazir

 

[immubhai]

anyone? how long is Asif spell today already?

 

[slix10]

We have to get one of these before lunch at least...

 

[iZeeshan]

I don;t think Asif should bowl too much. We will need him later, so bring on Sami.
