Pakistan v Australia | 1st Test | 22/10/2014 | Dubai (DSC) l Day 1

[GreenKnightRises]

Hopefully Ausies bowlers rip apart these two jokers wickets

 

[Ikball]

Wow, Misbah has scored a single.

 

[Justcrazy]

Loud shout , not out

 

[Justcrazy]

Little dust pops out.

 

[JibranAnsari]

ohh..close shave.

 

[Justcrazy]

Lyon making things happen here

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Gutsy man looks awful with the bat

 

[Justcrazy]

Marsh back on again.

 

[IAJ]

I feel Clarke's captaincy sort of helps Paksitan here. Bringing on Lyon now made life a bit easier.

 

[IAJ]

lols shafiq, where are you going, be a man yaar!

 

[m.shah]

Calm down folks few overs left..need to play the overs

 

[Justcrazy]

Marsh bowling more suited to shorter formats

 

[Ikball]

Do tuk tuk untill bowlers die.

 

[Justcrazy]

Mushtaq chatting a lot.

 

[Justcrazy]

Another maiden comes to end.

 

[aukhan]

Desperate Akmal supporters can't wait for Shafiq to get out.

 

[Justcrazy]

Three overs left.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Maiden for Mitchel March . What a sad phase for team Pakistan

 

[JibranAnsari]

shafiq can be a man tomorrow ..let him survive today.

 

[Red Devil]

Do tuk tuk untill bowlers die.

Lol Misbah is already working on that plan.

 

[Justcrazy]

A lot of fielders around the bat.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Expecting Akmal to get in place of shafiq in Team Misbah is like expecting Misbah to hit an ODI ton

 

[JibranAnsari]

and 4 ..beautiful shot.

 

[razabbas]

That turn though

 

[JibranAnsari]

Expecting Akmal to get in place of shafiq in Team Misbah is like expecting Misbah to hit an ODI ton

so akmal can get out on 20 in 20 ball ..holing out in deep.

No thanks.

 

[JibranAnsari]

[Adil_94]

This Turn will be exciting Yasir and Babar.

 

[Justcrazy]

Dean jones commentery makes lots of sense.

 

[Justcrazy]

There are signs of turn here.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Shafiq need to hit a ton to establish himself as a player, and not by just throwing away his wicket after achieving a 50 + score

 

[aukhan]

Two more overs come on boys.

Just survive 12 deliveries.

 

[aukhan]

Shafiq need to hit a ton to establish himself as a player, and not by just throwing away his wicket after achieving a 50 + score

50, 100 or no 100 Akmal won't be replacing him under Misbah

 

[Ikball]

2 overs to go, good day for Pakistan with 40 runs short.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

so akmal can get out on 20 in 20 ball ..holing out in deep.

No thanks.

Still a much better option than wasting 50 + deliveries to get to 10 and then getting out

And I am no UA fan

 

[Pete Rose]

Still a much better option than wasting 50 + deliveries to get to 10 and then getting out

And I am no UA fan

But u r. No shame in that. He is a fine talent

 

[Justcrazy]

217 on board

 

[Kianig89]

last over coming up good revival after n heroics

 

[Justcrazy]

So close , almost gone.

 

[Kianig89]

can come inplace of Duckeez!

 

[Justcrazy]

Viscious turn .

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Horrible Display of Day's play from Team Pakistan apart from YK in a flattest of pitch!!!

 

[Justcrazy]

Two more , good stuff.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Looks like the ball is spinning now.

Aus will be in trouble.

 

[Justcrazy]

Huge appeal again

 

[Justcrazy]

Review !!!!!

 

[aukhan]

This pitch is turning square...

 

[Big Mac]

Holy crap, how did that miss the stumps?

 

[Justcrazy]

Not out .

 

[GreenKnightRises]

But u r. No shame in that. He is a fine talent

I am not a big fan of Talent alone either

 

[JibranAnsari]

Still a much better option than wasting 50 + deliveries to get to 10 and then getting out

And I am no UA fan

Its about partnerships and time on the wicket. Asad is developing into a good test player and umar failing in his specialist version.

 

[aukhan]

1 ball only come on.

 

[Convict]

I was about to complain about Lyon's bowling but suddenly that delivery came out

 

[GreenKnightRises]

How come this Talented guy misses such loose balls !!

 

[JibranAnsari]

That looked out tbh as he was leaving the ball.


Lyon is the next swann..great bowling.

 

[JibranAnsari]

How come this Talented guy misses such loose balls !!

The ball is turning miles... save it!

 

[khalil1986]

Hopefully Ausies bowlers rip apart these two jokers wickets

Disgusting post.

 

[ViciousMachine]

Shafiq lucky to survive both calls, could have easily been given out on either call. But good day for Pak overall.

 

[Kianig89]

Overall a good days for us after a jittery start i feared 90 allout collapse but n

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Massive turn there for Lyon. Unlucky not to get a wicket.

 

[mithun_minhas]

It took 90 overs for the ball to turn square.

IMO, Pak got a bit lucky batting first. But they did not score enough on Day-1.

Lucily for Pak, when Aus comes out to bat, Pak spinners can weak havoc.

 

[khalil1986]

Why on earth was Shafiq padding up, absolute idiot.

 

[Kianig89]

though trundler MArsh should have been tonked nvir

 

[aukhan]

How come this Talented guy misses such loose balls !!

hahaha akmal fans and their understanding of the game.)

 

[imshally81]

No review ??

 

[khalil1986]

Maybe 20-30 runs short but overall easily Pak's day considering we were 7-2 at one stage.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Its about partnerships and time on the wicket. Asad is developing into a good test player and umar failing in his specialist version.

In a warm up match ?? I can't remember him scoring a ton in more than a year . How is that a progress ??

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Why was Shafiq leaving balls hitting the wicket and offering no shot.

Very very lucky.

 

[Alchemy]

Hoping we reach at least 350 tomorrow.

 

[khalil1986]

Aussies have bowled very well indeed, people complain about run rate but don't take into consideration how tight the Aussies have been with ball.

If we can get to 350-360 tomorrow that would be an excellent score IMO.

 

[imshally81]

Stumps
60-40 to Pakistan

 

[khalil1986]

hahaha akmal fans and their understanding of the game.)

Not got a clue, can't remember many loose balls.

 

[Mamoon]

We had a very good day in my humble opinion.

 

[aukhan]

Not got a clue, can't remember many loose balls.

pitch is turning square now. Idea was right not to do anything stupid at the end and survive the day.
