Good shot from Amin bhai.

Another crucial 4 runs.
 
Ordinary batting from Umar Akmal...Again let his team down big time..There was absolutely no need at all to poke at that delivery..It was always going away from the stumps...
 
Hoping Umar Amin scores big today and Kathak Mahraaj stays around for support. Every person below needs to contribute at least 20's and 30's to have a respectable lead. We can't afford another Sydney.

Lead is going to be around 130-140 max. Looks like our bowlers will hav to bowl out Aussies for 250 to give our batters around 110 to chase...max.
 
Come On Malik, I think you dont deserve to be in the team prove me wrong, Pakistan need a big score bhai saab,
 
Nothing to criticize, Thats the Way Umar Akmal is... He is following his brothers foots, So much talent but doesn't know how to implement. :(
 
What a bad innings from umar akmal seriously captain BUTT needs to talk him about this nonesense
and ask him to be careful in his shotplay or sit out of the next match :(
 
Afridi did mentioned just when he retired from test, some of the players in the current squad are not meant for Test. I guess Umar Akmal is one of them, doesn seem to have the tempermant and obviously Afridi was quick to spot aakhir ek khait ki mulli hai dono
 
Come on Malik, you can play straight if you try. Just don't play away from your body and all will be fine....
 
I really want Malik to score some runs

he's taken a lot of stick and I don't think he's as bad as he's made out to be

And hopefully Umar Amin can convert this start too
 
When will Smith come to bowl? Why is he playing in the team?
 
We need to bat 2 full sessions and get around 175-200 in lead... Hope there will be no collapse for next 40mins till lunch.......
 
Lead is 91... we need to get it up to 200!

That means we need a century partnership!
 
I think Umar is double minded about his role within the batting line-up.
 
I gotta feeling that Malik will score atleast 50. I hope he does he is better batsman if his head is clear of politics.
 
I think Umar is double minded about his role within the batting line-up.

the way the commentators and coaches talk about him might give you a hint to what goes through his mind

"play your natural game youngstar"
"play responsibly"
"play defensively"
"the best talent i have seen in 15 years"

no other team hypes up their players as much besides india.
 
Good stuff from Amin.

No more wickets in this session please.......another 38 minutes to go.
 
malik shud see this opportunity as last chance saloon, what with MY & YK breathing down his neck

hopefully that thought will spur him on
