Cricinfo:

Umar Gul to Ponting, 1 no ball, 86.3 mph, better line and length, but Gul oversteps for the zillionth time this match

Didn't realise zillionth was equal to three
 
I know but he needs to do something he cant keep letting gul keep bowling this trash

He can take him off (which he has done), that's about all. I have never seen the coach of any team give a motivation talk on the pitch as Waqar did today. It tells you a lot.
 
Aamer needs to be brought the other end gul is bowling. Gul needs to concentrate and bowl like he did in 1st inngs or how he bowled at lords in the 2nd inngs.

We need to give kaneria chance now from the end amin is bowling.
 
Gr8 captaincy :) . bringing on the attacking bowler to take with that kind of field .. haha

dont tell me he is new ... he is playing cricket for years now .. u know how to bring pressure .. rotating strike diminish pressure .. thats basic u learn in under 14 cricket
 
Due to not able to get proper support by Umar Gul, in result of bowling Asif and Aamer a lot of overs could possibly result in injuries. Perhaps, that's what Salman Butt is trying to avoid knowing that we have long summer ahead. Gul is wicket taker when he is on song, but he is still yet to prove as Test specialist bowler. I mean he still struggle to press pressure on batsmen. I guess he will have to bowl miraculous deliveries again.
 
I m here losing my patience .. ATTACKing field setting..charge up the bowler automatically ..

BUTT should realize its day 2 .. u cant DRAW a match from here :P .. u have to get them out and win the match
 
kaneria to bowl his pies

i am taking bets if Kaneria will take any wicket till he gives away:

A. 50 runs
B. 100 runs
C. 150 runs
 
Salman butt being really proactive, he's made the right moves by bringing on aamer and kaneria.

Fellas i believe the wicket has lost some pace and some lateral movement. It will be hardwork getting 8 wickets. INSHALLAH we will do it.

that doesnt mean u spread the field .. . and give them easy single... release the pressure ..
 
butttaaaa...been spending time with his buddy moon on cuptaany..or maybe the inzi manual!!..
 
It was bad captaincy not bringing in Aamer right after tea. Sometimes I just don't get these guys. Even a high school captain knows some of this stuff.
 
Stop easy singles in midwicket region. Aamer must bowl over the wicket rather around it.


Pakistan desperately needs wickets.
 
why's kaneria bowling. and why's aamer bowling round the wicket. come on butt, don't lose the plot.
 
Seen it all before. Aus scoring 350-400 in 2nd innings. Pak getting out at 150 losing by 50 runs. ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
My PP keeps playing up and I need it to comfort me! Someone do something! We don't have much of a lead left either.
 
good eve guys!! wow pak not looking good. need two wickets right now.
 
Why do Pakistan even play Kaneria? Just because a spin bowler must be included to balance the side? If so, Ajmal is a better choice.
 
I think Butt has forgotten we have someone called Mohammad Asif. Ponting didn't use Smith on purpose because there is nothing in the pitch OR the conditions for spinners, and Butt's using Kaneria.
 
Aussies will make probably 500-2 dec. for pakistan 331 to win:)

in return Pakistan will chase down 331-9 with last ball of the match.

Kaneria is the best spinner in the world...please don't insult him by comparing him to smith
 
once again same old story not enough lead, poor batting and things looking bad. i hope pak loose from here. inshallah they will loose.
 
can someone get a wicket, please!

Stupid Rudi is to blame for this.

Butt is basically experimenting everything. What we can do is be patience.
 
clarke and Pointing set now. Very bad news for us.

I think clarke will eventually get out, but Pointing will be hard to get out.
 
Rudi sohuld have give npointing out

Sorry about the speeliing trying to switch bac and forth between the live match and pak passion
 
just cant digest 258 runs in first innings. thats not on!! who is accountable for this.
 
good bowling unit show how it is done in second innings but pak bowler FAIL again and again,it is no coincidence.
Now the over cast condition just like 1st day but no use of line length.

Sorry, but this IS Sydney 2.0. Don't say different captain, different players, different place, blah blah. Same attitude, same feel, same defensive mindset. Chaos is going to ensue when this is over.

and ppl like we dont need. thx for support when team do well and when not u start giving these comments. thx for support and good bye
 
What is happening out there? Clouds everywhere but no swing?

Watson actually bowls late inswing quite well but some of his wickets were gifted due to poor shots.



I can't believe ponting who was out twice plumb lbw has gone on to 47 and still not out, what a tragedy.

y should not i be critical. tell me was 258 enough on this wicket?? 100 runs were gives because of poor aus bowling and extras. what did batsmen score???
 
We need a couple of wickets before the end of the day and things will switch around.
 
From some australian fan on cricinfo " "Definition of pessimism : Australia still need 70+ runs to make Pakistan bat again, we are already 2 down and still some people think Pakistan could lose this," notes Justin. Troo dat

258 was a lot considering our batting line up and 170 lead was massive how much more do you want? Our bowling is the strength here and some one besides Aamir needs to step it up.
