[Seen Sheen]

It's a whole lot better than it could have been, if not for him.

Yes BUT we are not satisfied with a 40 50. It would make not much difference. We want a biggie from him.

 

[asif9138]

YK missed the full toss

well played these two. Now atleat one of them needs to get a 100 for us to put up a fighting total

 

[MRSN]

Can all the people who wanted Umar to play over Shafiq, slap themselves please?

relax..this an average score of Umar but we don't want these beautiful 40s,50s...we expect these batsmen to score big hundred..

 

[asif9138]

single taken

 

[asif9138]

man these sweeps shots by YK make me worry.

 

[Bilal7]

Whats wrong playing umar, he is a class act as well, i will take akmal over azhar any day.

Umar over Azhar? No thanks.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Y getting predictable with sweeps. Needs to employ it sporadically.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

For me yes plz. Umar is needed in da team.

[asif9138]

South african pacers only test our players with short ball now!

 

[saiyan0312]

now this is the type of batting you would expect from someone who averages 51 in tests..... great batting by younis khan and asad impressive..... this match showed that one way or the other we have to survive the new ball and then score.

 

[MRSN]

maybe should bowl to get

will hit him for at least 2 and 1 sweep

 

[asif9138]

there is nothing much in the pitch now..if these two do not play rash shot, we can score 300!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Hopefully we can get to end of this session with these two batsmen still there.

WTH was that from Shafiq?he really needs to cut down with those T20 shots..

 

[asif9138]

common asad???

 

[Seen Sheen]

top innings so far from a top player

I remember how you laid into him after first test, Not the sign of a true fan. Should have reserved your judgment till the end of the series.

 

[Amjid Javed]

50 for asad and 1000 test runs, well played.

He needs to score a big hundred here though...

 

[IAJ]

100 partnership as well

 

[IAJ]

Pakistan's session

 

[saiyan0312]

tea.... chai shai piyo and last the day..

 

[kungfu90]

Shafiq has come of the age on this tour. Good performance from him so far on this tour, has exceeded the expectations.

 

[asif9138]

asad take it easy...we about to surve you tea!

 

[MRSN]

best session for Pakistan on this tour so far..

 

[speed]

Pitch is flat anything less than 300 will be poor.

 

[asif9138]

next 23 overs if we score 70! we have 200...then new ball taken

 

[Love Pakistan]

Good session for us. Now they gotta turn those fifties into hundreds. Pitch is looking very flat now. Gotta take full advantage.
