Pakistan v Australia | 2nd Test | Day 1: Session 1 | Leeds | 21/07/10

[NJamal]

Come On Guys take Punter he is the dangerman here

 

[ali110]

I really feel sorry for these hardworking Pakistan bowlers. All their hard work will be in the gutter once their batsman start their batting. Just wish that there are some Miadad's, Salim Malik's and even Asif Mujtaba's are in the current team. (I never expect Inzi, MOYO etc to score against any decent bowling opposition)

 

[Masroor]

he always think there is a bat involved tipical aussie....

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Watch Kaneria Run.

)

 

[Pak_Power]

I guess Butt sahib was right on saying good toss to lose!!

 

[mrk]

because he always cry ?

 

[Theo_14]

I've just woken up guys - what's the pitch like? and any changes to the side?

 

[kamranO]

 

[ZAK]

3 to Clarke.

 

[iafzal]

even crapinfo not siding with Watto

Replays show Watson's lbw was as out as you'll see...bat was nowhere near it

 

[adnan yasin]

yeah .. thats the way boy... beaten punter

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Punter feeling for the ball as it nips away.

Beautiful bowling.

 

[ZAK]

23/2

 

[LG]

7.2
Mohammad Asif to Watson, OUT, 129.5 kph, gone! Another falls. Game on. Asif gets his line and length right, full on off stump with a hint of shape back in, Watson misses his drive and is caught right in front. Ian Gould quickly raises the finger, but Watson isn't happy and takes a while to leave
SR Watson lbw b Mohammad Asif 5 (19b 1x4 0x6) SR: 26.31

 

[Seen Sheen]

This partnership is dangerous for us...
Hobart test anybody?...

 

[NJamal]

Watson OUT Bacha IN

 

[tauseefm]

Great start by pakistan. So howz pitch looks like and what about body language of playes? can't watch the game. at the airport right

 

[adnan yasin]

Watch Kaneria Run.

)

he runs like as if he is running in the water

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Cricinfo.

Replays show Watson's lbw was as out as you'll see...bat was nowhere near it

Match Referee will do nothing i bet! issed:

 

[Masroor]

need 2/3 wickets more in first session..

 

[Poison]

Both bowlers figures are identical after 4 overs each.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Clarke was in good touch in 1st test. Lets hope we can get him early!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Very good line by :aamir

 

[Amjid Javed]

need 2/3 wickets more in first session..

If we can have Aussies 4/5 down by Lunch that would be great!

 

[NJamal]

Watch Kaneria Run.

)

Kaneria run like a Giraffe on Ice

 

[iafzal]

Great start by pakistan. So howz pitch looks like and what about body language of playes? can't watch the game. at the airport right

Pitch is flat with some moisture due to all the rain. Not as bowler friendly as Lords although a few balls with uneven bounce

 

[Seen Sheen]

I've just woken up guys - what's the pitch like? and any changes to the side?

one change,Malik in for Afridi...

 

[iHammad]

:aamir

 

[bluffmasterv2]

Can anyone tell me why Atn cricket plus hasnt started their feed yet, they are showing old highlights

Yes MoYo has a less than 30 average against Aus, SA, and SL. Very ordinary.

 

[atif.raza]

Asif and Amir on Fire

 

[Pak_Power]

Good to see both bowlers getting a wicket each early.... Should fire them up this!!

 

[iZeeshan]

Need a couple of more wickets to put ourselves on top

 

[fawad_wellwisher]

Warne agreeing with Salman that it was a good toss to lose.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Aamir bowling too short...

 

[adnan yasin]

Great start by pakistan. So howz pitch looks like and what about body language of playes? can't watch the game. at the airport right

body language is good ... especially after taking these two wickets

pitch is dry.. with some variable bounce.. have to bowl close to the stumps *BASICS* to get the wickets .. so far pakistani bowlers are doing that

 

[ZAK]

Maiden over by Aamir.

23/2

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Now why was that not out?

 

[atif.raza]

Amir should bowl closer to the stumps. It will be mighty difficult for batsman to get up to him from that angle

 

[iZeeshan]

FFS THAT WAS OUT

what the hell

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Or did he hit that? Thanks to ads I didn't catch the replay.

 

[IAJ]

Rudiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii huh, that was plumb!

 

[fawad_wellwisher]

not given?

 

[iZeeshan]

Peach from Asif

Let's get another couple of wickets boys!

 

[Theo_14]

Aamer should have gone another wicket there - LBW appeal not given.

Asif bowling now

 

[Afridi_Fan]

For the Love God Clarke was plumb.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Rudi back to his blind ways

 

[adnan yasin]

ufff.. i think clarke got lucky that time ...

 

[ZAK]

That was plumb issed:

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

A wicket a piece to aamer & asif
23/2

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Rudi screws us yet again, in his final test.

 

[DW44]

And Rudy pulls off an Ashoka/Amish Saheba. That was freaking plumb.

 

[Pak_Power]

Both bowlers finding some good rythem.. InshaAllah will get more early wickets.. C'mon!!!

 

[atif.raza]

Cmon guys. That looked out but its Rudi last test. He will NOT want to give any biased decisions today of all days

 

[fawad_wellwisher]

That was plumb. What is Rudi doing?

 

[NJamal]

We need at least 6 wickets before lunch.

 

[tauseefm]

Pitch is flat with some moisture due to all the rain. Not as bowler friendly as Lords although a few balls with uneven bounce

Thanks iafzal bhai. Hope we restrict aus on a small total.

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Rudi as rubbish as ever.....plumb decision given not out.

 

[Desire]

hello guys!! asif giving gift to ponting

 

[ZAK]

Beauty!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Beautiful out-swinger.

 

[LG]

8.6
Mohammad Aamer to Clarke, no run, 135.3 kph, big appeal, it looks close as Clarke plays forward but Rudi quickly shakes his head. Was there an edge? Replays suggests not and Clarke is a lucky man to survive. Very lucky

Rudi is having his farewell party. And now Clarke will probably score a hundred.

 

[Pak_Power]

Damn it Clarke get another chance

 

[fawad_wellwisher]

Get Simon Taufel in right now!

 

[adnan yasin]

play and miss by clarke...

very very close to edged it .. ASIF get him man ..

 

[NJamal]

Come on Rudi you are blind or what?

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Asif bowling with his tail up here..........

 

[Sakss]

clarke was out...poor umpiring again...it was no where near the bat...bloody blind umpires

 

[Hash]

Australia to be 356 for 2 at close

 

[Seen Sheen]

spontaneous reaction from my side was Out...It looked pretty straight..Rudi..issed:

[MAJID-SHAH]

Good start for pakistan here in headingly.......

 

[Afridi_Fan]

This is unbelievable bowling.

 

[adnan yasin]

another . good delivery by asif to clarke... no idea what to do with that

 

[iafzal]

impresses with both of the bowlers considering the pitch is not as good as Lords on day 1

 

[ZAK]

Clarke and Ponting are sitting ducks atm.

 

[LG]

Man, I'm so pissed. issed:

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

After shaking off the early rust, Asif and Aamer now look unplayable

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Good Over.
