yeah.. why the hell he is batting out of his crease... this is not an asian wicket ..

u have to play the ball late to cover the swing..

Playing the ball late when it is swinging will most likely get you out, you take guard down the pitch to negate swing, by playing the ball as early as possible. you see Malik, he always plays inside the crease and he continuosly fails against swing.
 
Man i dont know how they cannot get a lead of 200, 300 runs in an innings from Pakistan is impossible these days. A lead of less than 200 and we can kiss the test good bye.
 
Ok Hussey was wrongly given out. So, we are even.

No because Clarke was also plumb before he got bowled.

So in terms of bad decisions it's 2-1 now.......2 for us and 1 for Australia.
 
Looks like the the Akmals's feel the older bro should have been made captain instead of Butt. The best way to get rid of the current captain is to lose a un-loseable match.
Plus they know they cant be dropped because there is no one better to replace them. Call me cynical but thats the way the Pakistan cookie crumbles.
 
No need to hang around for Malik now, just go after the bowlers. Our tail-enders usually don't last long.
 
what if Aus scored 500 in second innings, 500+88-280 (suppose)=308 target !!!! they will win :(
 
watson is slower than colloingwood...how can our batsmen get out to such rubbish bowlers..

you play the ball late so that u can see how much its swinging .. and which way its going



its not spin that u come down the track to cut the spin ... its swing bowling brother.
 
so we've collapsed again? lets keep the y's out then? moon is gonna save us? Lord have mercy!!..when are yu people gonna wake up..be thankful we may have a measley lead of 150!!
 
Hawkeye was wrong the ball hit Amir in line. Good decision
 
Our tail is the worst tail in the history of all forms of cricket.

We have four number 11s. Absolutely shocking.

Moon is playing for himself .........to stay not out................selfish behaviour

Malik needs to go in T-20 mode now. Our tail-enders are not capable of hanging around. Might as well get some runs, no matter how they come

He wasn't playing a shot so even if it hit him outside the line it makes no difference.

It wasn't hitting the stumps and wasn't out. Shokcingly appauling decision from Rudi.
 
Every run is a bonus now.

Just assume we will be bowled out for 226.
 
EXPERIENCE OF MALIK shown :)

taken single of the first ball... lol

thought it was 2 haha... fantastic mirza sahab
 
I have no idea why Ponting didn't get Watson into the attack earlier, leagues better than the 'frontline' bowlers.

Won't hear any complaints from me though, wish he could have delayed his introduction a bit more!
 
Australia will win this test match from here. Even when Aussies were 88 All out i had a feeling Pakistan would fking bottle it as usual!

Well the good thing is that the ball is still swinging. Hopefully our bowlers once again make up for our pathetic bowling
 
People were getting carried away....I told you we would get 130-140 lead max. People were saying 200 and 250 and 300.

Anyway - this is now 60-40 in Pakistans favour. We have to bat last. That is the big issue. If we chase over 110 we are finished. So question is can we bowl out Aus below 250 again???? Will we bowl as good as the 1st inns? Will they bat as bad? Aussies are right back in it.
 
I think this was out. Malik's bat was in the air and so was his foot!

The ball hit his front pad in line and would have hit the stumps. Think Hawkeye got confused as the ball then hit the back pad outside off and missing.

Looks like a good decision.
 
This is bad. All because of stupidity of Akmal brothers. I was hoping Akmal jr would have abit more brain then sr. But I was wrong, both of them.

A sea of talent with with no brain to support it.
 
I guess Danish and Malik will take a single off the last ball so Danish can keep the strike.
