What's new

Uncle on Fire!

Proteas are now terrified


Uncle on fire!

Na na na na na na
 
Uncle Naumannn get innn.....good catch too.

I think Saffers seen a bit of spin and have started to panic a bit.. Losing the Toss and this score is v good
 
mind you this sa team is by no means understrength. And this is shambolic stuff as the pitch is very much playable and not a minefield.
 
So good to see cricket back home. Lovely, thankyou so much South Africa. Pakistan in a strong position.
 
To be fair, and I hope I jinx it, Bavuma has 1 ton. He walked in the 90s the other day without even losing his wicket, he's incapable of minow bashing, what is he going to do against these bowlers? :)))

I have never seen such an awful RSA batting lineup in my life. :facepalm Its not even turning that much here. England were batting on pitches that were turning a lot more than it is here and they batted a lot better.

These guys are getting out on a pitch thats fairly good to bat on.

Its south africa's fault if Pakistan win, right? :kagiso
 
Typical karachi surface it looks like which will be very good for batting for 1st few days and then start to take more spin and reverse swing will start to be more prominent. 90/2 - Means its SA session pakistan need to take 3/4 wickets some how in next session as both elgar and Faf are capable of getting big hundreds. Good bowling and smart field settings required from Babar.

They have take 3 wickets this session and doing more then i asked for already :)
 
SA going into panic mode playing spin, reminds me of SLs effort against england yesterday :facepalm:

Spot on. This much spin is even found in sa. It is as if they are imagining spin.

Sadly, I think in terms of test cricket, you'll never see another team from us greater or equal to Biff's test team.

I can only hope for an ODI world cup at one point.
 
Surprisingly, Babar isn’t looking too bad out there as a captain
 
Pakistan's ranking will definitely improve if they regularly play at their real home. This will also give confidence to their players and boost their stats. :inti
 
Hopefully Azhar and Fawad don’t eat daal chawal on this wicket and look to score at a strike rate a bit more than 40 saves time and puts other team under pressure.

:fawad
 
Very good coverage. Looks like the PSL is going to be a stellar event this year to view!
 
Happy 4 Nouman n Tabish but do selecting 34 n 36 yo serves purpose .......tbh i would have gone 4 Zafar n Zia
 
why did we play fahim here?
if we wanted an all rounder then should ve gone for Nawaz.
this pitch is suited for spinners.

Because it is Pakistan management , they are idiotic in choosing horses for courses.
 
How did Nauman chacha take so many wickets in domestic cricket without turning the ball an inch? I know keeping things tight will give you wickets eventually, but not an average of 23
