I am pretty sure tomorrow it will be early start. If I am correct when the play was delayed (today) one of the commentator did say they might have early start in the morning.

Why do you want to bat tonight, weve done well for this score




Are you serious...what does this have to do with our batting?

We have seen so many times in the past that we allow the main batsman to sheppered the tail by giving him easy singles...in the hope that we can get the tailender out.

We did exactly that against the same team in the 2nd test down under and everyone knows what we ended up seeing...Afridi's brain works in the same retarded way.

I don't care if Bradman comes to the crease, under such pressure situation...you try to attack him too to see if he can get out; now because of Mr. Afridi's idiotic tactics, Aussies might still squeeze some important runs and then make us suffer

Wasim and Waqar needed just one ball at the tailender, the bowlers should be good enough to dismiss the tailender even if they get one delivery at him.

Having said that, lets say we set a super attacking field, i am pretty sure Hussey will go beserk and he is pretty good at hitting the bowlers to all corners of the park.

You dont need to have a super attacking field to hussey. But have some catchers who can actually assist the bowlers in getting him out.

And getting a good batter out requires some risk taking. Your comment depicts what went on in moyo's head when he was captain

Exactly my sentiments...we have been burned before and Afridi needs to realise this will only cause more pain
 
They never said the match would start early so i guess it will start at 5:30 est (USA)??
