PAK vs WI....1st test match: Day 4 from Lahore! Pak win by 9 wickets

[Sheikh]

Why is Farhat placed anywhere near the batsman?

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Both Shiv and Bravo should be back in the pavilion, poor fielding by Farhat and Akmal. 243-5

 

[aabbasi]

dropped by Farhat off Hafeez, simple catch. Sloppy fielder!

Imran Farhat !!!!

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Hafeez has bowled better than Kaneria in his little spell.

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Cant say I'm surprised by that. I dont blame him though. He just shouldnt be fielding close in

Holding said in the India series that in his day the ugliest guy had to field close in.

 

[immubhai]

Farhat.......in the last innings he had surprised me with his direct hit and now he is trying his best to convince me he got butter fingers.

 

[Daoud]

Holding said in the India series that in his day the ugliest guy had to field close in.

) ) )
Yeah, but surely even they would have some adhesive ability

 

[SUPERSAMI]

246-5

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Shiv struggling with dehydration.

 

[Sheikh]

Still cant believe we gave both of them lives. This match could be over by now.

 

[Daoud]

Someone put Shiv out of his misery please

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Hafeez replaced by Gul

 

[aabbasi]

Farhat.......in the last innings he had surprised me with his direct hit and now he is trying his best to convince me he got butter fingers.

The only explanation to that direct hit can be that he wanted to hit the stumps at the other end.

 

[aabbasi]

Ok Guys, I figured out why Kaneria is not able to get any wickets. Couple of reasons....
(1) he has not yet conceeded hundred runs ..
(2) he has not yet bowled 50 overs
(3) the match is not in the 5th day

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Hafeez is a much better spin option than Malik and Afridi, i've noticed.

 

[aabbasi]

Hafeez has definitely improved himself as a cricketer. A good thinking brain....

 

[Daoud]

Gul gets Bravo. Come on Gully. Get your 10 for the game

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Bravo gone lbw to Gul!!!!!!!

 

[aabbasi]

Hafeez is a much better spin option than Malik and Afridi, i've noticed.

infact he is better in both forms of the game. He has good control in one day version of the game, and can give the ball a fair bit of tweak.

 

[aabbasi]

Bravo Gone.... Gul Great delivery.

 

[Sheikh]

Gulllyyyyy!!!!!!!

 

[SUPERSAMI]

248-6, Gul's got 8 wickets in the match so far

 

[Sheikh]

Taufel's made some phenomenal decisions.

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Ramdin the new man in.

 

[the true passionist]

Hafeez is a much better spin option than Malik and Afridi, i've noticed.

Malik is a bigger spinner of the bowl hence better in tests. He did get Lara lbw this morning...only ashoka was sleeping. Hafeez is better in ODIs though.

 

[Daoud]

Taufel's made some phenomenal decisions.

Shame his partner has more than balanced it out

 

[MIG]

Gul - a great FTB - Flat Track Bowler...

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Malik is a bigger spinner of the bowl hence better in tests. He did get Lara lbw this morning...only ashoka was sleeping. Hafeez is better in ODIs though.

In this match Malik hasn't managed to turn the ball but Hafeez did, in fact in his short spell he was more threatening than Kaneria today.

 

[SUPERSAMI]

249-6

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Gul round the wicket beats Shiv first up, good ball.

 

[Rudi hater]

Why isn't Hafeez bowling then..

 

[Daoud]

Because the new ball is about to be taken. Although it would make more sense for Hafeez to bowl than Kaneria

 

[Sheikh]

I cant believe Hafeez was taken off.

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Ramdin gone, Kaneria gets his first, Farhat takes the catch.

 

[Sheikh]

Never mind then.

I suppose Kaneria's marked Radmdin out as his bunny.

 

[SUPERSAMI]

251-7

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Dave Mohammad the new man in.

 

[SUPERSAMI]

On the replay the decision looks a bit dodgy, the umpire again is Desilva.

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Tea, 252-7.

 

[aabbasi]

Ramdin gone, Kaneria gets his first, Farhat takes the catch.

As they say in hindi films,

Yeh aik khaas moorat hai jo do unhoni ikhati ho gaee hain...
