Akpower Bhai - no text/sms type posts pls. thanks.

As for the pitch - its as good or bad as we want to make it - having said that - Hafeez has just lost his wicket !

For all those worried about SA trip - pls note that last test of a series is NOT the time to improve your skills ! Its done on practice pitches etc
 
Yet another failure by Hafeez. Thats 4 in a row so far ... I wonder if the knives are coming out.
 
9.3 Collymore to Mohammad Hafeez, OUT, good length ball just outside off stump, nipping in, Hafeez moves forward and looks to drive on the up, pushes in front and a big gap between bat and pad, ball knocks over the off stump

good question, i duno what were they trying to do there. perhaps they just thought they dont hv a good enough spare bowler so they went w/ an extra bat..! i dunno, its a strange decision
 
Oh man hasan316 ,the anti MOYO is here. How ya been and do you see lara scoring another big one.

Yaar I am fine, Yeah I see LARA scoring a century here in KARACHI my home town. I remember LARA scored 111 vs SA in WC quarter final.
 
Thats now 4 maidens in a row. Being bogged down a little by the windies here.

Once in a while, a "u" isnt a problem - its when whole messages are composed with this type of language that we get concerned.

Anyways, lets not get into this argument - enjoy the game.

Thanks

what i see is that Danish is running thru the WI on the 5th day ,and lara struggling against Danish.
 
what the hell is Pakistan doing. pathetic display from our batsmen. last 6overs oruns and 1wicket on a pitch that is cr@p

then i feel sorry for what you had to go through the last decade or so

Yeah he didn't had any good bowler to support him. I still remember WI tour to SriLanka. He ripped Murali apart, scored 666 from 6 innings but still non of the other batsman or bowler contributed in that series.
 
Actually I think Lara is playing it quite smart here.

He knows he really has two attacking weapons, and he doesn't want to tire them both at the same time. So he's going to bowl Colleymore to attack while Gayle can defend from the other end. When Colleymore tires, it will probably be Taylor with Powell which will keep the pressure on us. Smart captaincy especially considering he's a bowler short.

he has Bravo too...I think the main reason why Gayle is bowling is because he really troubled I Farhat in the last match
 
Pakistans plan is to score at 1 run per over and end up with 100 odd for the end of day. What a boring game so far.

should I call the WHAAAAAAAAMBUULAAAAAANCE?

seriously, stop crying.
 
This is a slow pitch and is not a stroke makers surface. Pak batsmen have to grind it out - if they get past 400, WI will have problems. I also believe, that Kaneria will get much more turn on this pitch.
 
Drinks ... we're going at about 2 runs per over. They need to start attacking one end, otherwise the windies will take the initiative.
 
Have to see out the first session. The rest of day 1 and days 2 and 3 should be easier to bat on.
 
I think Mohd Yusuf's chances of gettin Viv's record have been harmed by what we have seen on this pitch so far. He'll probably have to bat for 400 balls to make the 149 he requires.
 
its like the commentary has become a battle of who can use the bigger and more complicated words to sound smart :D

2 leg byes down to fine leg

40-1
