There are still two full days play yet. Pakistan should be in no rush here yet. They can bat till tea atleast tmoz inshallah and get lead up to something substantial. Pakistan need to keep building solid foundations.

i know this sounds weird but will we see the Moyo record??

I was just wondering the same thing, the way it's going at the moment.

Anyway, good to see Pak going along smoothly. 98-1 after 41 overs.
(Morning everybody btw)

100 up for pakistan.

Hafeez survives a good shout for lbw.

101/1
 
So what do we reckon would be a good target to set on this pitch, form the point of view of going for a win ?

220+ to me will be a winning total. I think pakistan will be looking at 300+ thou here.
 
Yes AJ , I concur 220-250 should be enough, but as you say Pak will probably go for a safety buffer of runs as well.

Policy will be make games safe so that pakistan cant lose then try and win game and series 2-0. I cant see pakistan declaring for any total under 300 lead.

I would have thought 230-240. But I would want about 270. I think Inzi would want 300.

Depends on how we bat of course, and whether Inzi is in a position to decalre - never rule out the collapse, and us being caught a bit short.

I'll settle for 275 min.
 
Six, monster slog sweep from Younis khan. almost swung himself off his feet!
 
ill settle for 280 but 300 would have the psychological factor...once the game is safe we can attack when bowling..
 
Good flick to legside for 2 by Hafeez.

On to 49* now ...

True Oxy you can never rule out a batting collapse where the Pak-sters are concerned unfortunately! :)

I think as AJ's says Inzi's 1st priority will be to make the game safe so the game and series is won, and as you both mention he's likely to want a 300 run buffer for that reason.
 
50 for Hafeez.

very good gritty knock! well deserved now please go on and make it a ton!
 
50 for Hafeez :14:

Good to see Hafeez getting some runs, if he can put his head down and keep working hard like this I think he has the makings of a good opener.

122-1 off 48.3

Windies can also bat well. We need at least 4.5 session to bowl them out.

so what you think pakistan needs to get quick runs in 1 session and declare?

4.5 sessions? please. 3.5 will be more than enuf on a wearing wicket.

Unless pakistan score 200 runs in next 25-30 overs then youre theory aint gona happen.

Only moyo will score fast in this pitch so one need to get out.

What utter tripe so now you want a pakistan batsmen to get out?

How old r u may i ask? about 10.

really shows how much test cricket youve watched, This is not an ODI.
 
how much does moyo need to get that record again? something like 40?

come on do you think Inzy will declare before the lead is 350? So we need to get them quickly other wise windies may draw the test.
 
Good luck MoYo inshallah he can make it !!

what ever happens he still been a class batsman this year and the best in the world 2006 ..

yes inzamam is defensive but pakistan can bat till tea tmoz and still have 4 sessions to bowl so relax.
 
Every run he scores will be cheered as he gets closer to Viv Richards score in a calender year GUESS WO?
 
50.3 Taylor to Yousuf, no run, Taylor fires in the lethal yorker, reversing in, Yousuf does well to dig it out

Come on MoYo! Fight it out! Get those runs! Make Lara eat his words insh' allah!
 
single for hafeez, he will keep the strike.

Pak 130/2
 
With 14 overs left today, Yousuf probably wont get the record today anyway.

The way this pitch is playing I think your'e right. Well long as he gets it, that's the main thing.
 
Pakistan 130-2 @ close of play day 3

Lead is for 174 runs.

Good day for pakistan. Hopefully we can gain bigger lead tomorrow and Moyo can break the record.

And just as I type that, the Umpires offer the light and off they go.

Pakistan: 130/2 (52.0 Ovs) Lead of 174
 
How was the pitch doing ? Was it giving help a lot to spinners? I read Gayle has bowled 10 overs for CH Gayle 10 2 23 1 2.30
RR Sarwan 2 0 6 0 3.00

Sarwan also bowled 2 overs? Were they gettting lot of help off the pitch? Inzi wont declare till the end of tomorrow´s day. Please anyone comment on the pitch?
 
what time does the match start tomorow uk time heard they will make up time from today.

I have the same feeling, Our great hero is a gutless wonder.
How many times have the batting team tried to be hero's and stay on - and lose wkts?
 
shan said:
what the hell. I think inzy want to draw this match.

or is it Lara...

umpire Harper has a chat with Lara, asking him if he continues with Taylor, he will have to offer the light to the batsman, Lara wants Taylor to bowl. The umpires offer the light to the batsman, who accept it.
