Good start from

 

[Sam18696]

Hafeez v Starc

 

[DarkNight]

No Hafeez as Opener Oh Godddddddd!!!!!!!

 

[Sam18696]

Some runs for Hafeez

 

[GreenKnightRises]

two 145+ bowlers from each side

 

[Mir jibran]

pathetic decision to continue hafeez as opener

 

[UpInTheAir]

Hafeez will last 2 Johnson balls

 

[Sam18696]

Master vs Bunny now

 

[Justcrazy]

Is Hafeez worst opener over in test matches ? Must be in top 5

 

[Justcrazy]

Now Hafeez to face Johnson.

 

[Justcrazy]

Hafeez gets off strike with a single.

 

[Sam18696]

Hafeez survives

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Looks like Shehza is having the trouble at the moment

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Hafeez survives

Pretty much dead pitch. its his chance to flourish

 

[Sam18696]

3 runs to shezzy
Hafeez back

 

[Amir]

What a toss to win. Had we been bowling first, keeping that 1-0 lead would be very hard. We need to make this count cause this pitch is lifeless. We should aim for 500 and hopefully seal the series.

 

[Justcrazy]

3 runs added to score by Shehzad

 

[GreenKnightRises]

PP Australians favorite bowler on

 

[Sam18696]

Siddle on

 

[Sam18696]

3 runs to shezzy again

Shehzad keeping Bunny off the strike

 

[Sam18696]

Hafeez

 

[akamaka]

yorker coming up ?

 

[Sam18696]

Hafeez doing a tailender as usual

 

[aukhan]

How's the pitch? any demons or mines there?

 

[akamaka]

How's the pitch? any demons or mines there?

ball keeping a little low , not much bounce in pitch

 

[Justcrazy]

Australians looking for the breakthrough here.

 

[Sam18696]

Can't believe Hafeez is still batting.

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Looks like a flat pitch.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Very very flat.

Get ready for a hafeez ton.

 

[Justcrazy]

Siddle into attack now.

 

[akamaka]

no swing at all so far.

 

[DarkNight]

I can't recall I have listened to more worst cricket commentary and commentator than Bazid, the guy is absolutely pathetic, most annoying voice and poor verbal comprehension skills, He makes Chisti looks like Tony Greg, When will he leave? Absolutely terrible!

 

[Justcrazy]

13 / 0

6 overs

 

[DarkNight]

Thank God Bazid is gone, Phewwww!!!

 

[Sam18696]

Hafeez lucky again

 

[battler]

How is hafeez still batting

 

[Justcrazy]

This pitch is shouting out a draw

 

[Sam18696]

How is hafeez still batting

Everybody is wondering.

 

[Xoib]

has the track been imported from SSC Colombo?

 

[battler]

Hafeez strategy against johnson - take a single every time he bowls and watch action from non-strikers end

 

[akamaka]

Whats with clarke having these bizarre field placings , different every over . Just trying too many things.

 

[Bosch]

Good toss to win

 

[Bosch]

Hafeez with the straight bat wow

 

[Justcrazy]

Can Pakistan end the 20 years wait here

 

[Bosch]

This is a result pitch.

 

[Bosch]

Can Pakistan end the 20 years wait here

In SHA Allah

 

[Genghis]

So I'm on the bus on my way home so pp commentary it is till I get home and turn the tv on. How are we looking guys?

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan playing too many dot balls here.

 

[haris93]

So I'm on the bus on my way home so pp commentary it is till I get home and turn the tv on. How are we looking guys?

looking good

 

[Justcrazy]

So I'm on the bus on my way home so pp commentary it is till I get home and turn the tv on. How are we looking guys?

Pakistan play same way every test , just looking to draw.

 

[Red Devil]

Shehzad is looking a lot more compact and solid today mA especially his defense, I'm sure Flower has something to do with this.

 

[akamaka]

Hafeez into double figures and survived 9 overs

 

[Genghis]

looking good

No jinxing allowed

Pakistan play same way every test , just looking to draw.

I heard Deano saying there will be a result and Rambo saying it'll be a draw. Interesting...

 

[Sam18696]

Whenever Hafeez takes a single to get to the non striker, he looks so relieved

 

[Excellence]

Maxwell will be milked here by the Pak batsmen.

 

[Zeshan547]

Shezyy playing over defensively

 

[imshally81]

SR is 50.00 for M Hafeez.... hmm ... improvement

 

[Genghis]

Well done! We've already played out MJs first spell and haven't given him a wicket.

 

[battler]

Looks like an ssc road.

[Genghis]

0/20 after 10. With Hafeez opening I'd take that.

 

[Zeshan547]

Good first ten overs, Now pak should change gears, ab dosra gear laga do team green

 

[Sam18696]

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Easy execution from Little Master

 

[akamaka]

freebie there.

 

[m.shah]

19/0

 

[zabalestmsm]

I feel today Hafeez will comeback strongly in Test cricket. Will score big.

 

[imshally81]

How about pitch ? Any movement or any spin later ???

Non sense. I hope Johnson won't complain like this because a good bowler can bowl well on any pitch.

 

[haroon91]

Hafeez to get a century and be retained for NZ tests

 

[akamaka]

Non sense. I hope Johnson won't complain like this because a good bowler can bowl well on any pitch.

Exactly to be called the best bowler in the world, the most terrifying , the fastest etc

you have to perform on every kind of surface.

 

[m.shah]

Good going so far

 

[Aman]

This wicket looks like a batsmens paradise, let's see how the Aussies go on it in the second.

 

[m.shah]

Imran Khan: "At abu dhabi the best bwler is
not a spinner it is junaid khan 4 matches 18
wickets at an average of 23 and strike rate of
48.6"

 

[Aman]

Hafeez to score a double

 

[Saurav]

Total road

 

[Genghis]

Still no sign of the spinners.
