[Oxy]

Tight 2nd run by Marsh.

 

[cricketkashmir]

2 runs taken by marsh..akhtar a little slow in taking off

 

[abc_to_xyz]

Where's Tanvir?

Btw, Umer Gul is bowling as fast as Akthar (or Akthar is bowling as slow as gul)!


Weird Pitch, bit slow..

 

[Amjid Javed]

Both bowlers have radars on so far!

 

[Oxy]

Good over

6-0 off 3 overs

 

[cricketkashmir]

ball staying low again..last ball of guls over..wanted to pull..straight to the fielder in the leg side

 

[pak4life]

a discipline start by pak without being too threatening.

 

[On_the_up]

6-0 (3) good start

 

[Amjid Javed]

Slow start by Aussies, having a look i guess to start with.

 

[Umta]

Are Aus openers finding hard to adjust to low bounce

 

[cricketkashmir]

[Oxy]

Wide , outside off stump - and spanked for 4

[Umta]

Will Akhtar touch 150

 

[Oxy]

CricketPlus quality is a lot better than CBN. I just switched CBN to CricketPlus. The commentatory is also working great

 

[cricketkashmir]

5th ball: good running 1 run taken

 

[Amjid Javed]

Wonder if Akthar will go over 150K?

 

[pakistani pride]
