What's new

Pakistan v Australia | 3rd ODI | Abu Dhabi | 27/04/09 | Pak Inngs

This is why you need someone lie Butt to stay at the crease. No matter how slow he was scoring.
 
Misbah really deserves a kick up his backside. He can't just walk his way into the team anymore.
 
Still plenty of batting to come though - Akmal after Afridi
 
must say shezad was a little taken back by the arm ball or may be i think i got a bit careless, lost focus
 
wait i just looked away for a moment and we lost two more wickets? wth is going on?

True but the fact is the middle order is useless. The quciker we get MoYo back the better. Was there ever going to be anyone replacing Inzi or MoYo?
 
Good knock by Shehzad, was quite impressive and should get a long run now.

90-odd to get. Unnecessarily made it a little tricky but we should still waltz this.
 
On the positive - if there's anyone I'd want out there on a turning pitch - it'd be Malik. Afridi ain't too shabby against spin either. Ask Kumble.
 
Inshallah this will not be another one of our famous collapses. Thank god there is extended batting order and shorter tail.
 
These guys should be actors all of them! what a mini collapse, i hope it stays mini
 
I hope Malik n Afridi produces a 60-70 partnership atleast to guide Pakistan home...

Pakistan needs determined effort from both of them, and both of them are capable of rotating the strike well (bcoz of their fast running ability and placing ball into gap)
 
all the players were persisted with when they didnt perform...its just 3 matches hes struggled...i think he deserves a fair run
 
One more wicket - OZ need one more wicket (pref. Afridi's) to really put the brakes.

For Pak, these two need to play sensibly and not try to win it in 10 overs. They have heaaappps of time.

Forget about Moyo hes not getting any younger
 
Misbah in my view is no senior player. Hes just been lucky that Pakistan has not played much cricket in 2008, he would have been exposed a lot earlier. I dont think he has the right technique against fast bowlers and he plays so slow when the situation demands him to be aggressive and plays unnecessarily rash idiotic shots when he needs to be consolidating.
 
Poor geoffry, he really wants pakistan to do well, but these cricketers of ours..
 
My son left the house 25 mins ago.

90-0

He waited till the game was safe!
