cricinfo.

For an 18-year-old, Aamer is playing like a veteran. He's got so many tricks in his wrist at the point of delivery, and his control of late swing is simply bamboozling

I wish and pray Aamer get an 8'er or a 9'er if he keeps bowling like this
 
Credit should be given to Asif too for keeping it tight. Hunting in pairs, anyone?
 
The best thing about Aamer is that he uses his head...he knows about cricket.....how to set up a batsmen...how to bowl and what line and length........some bowlers just come and bang the ball in...he thinks to where he will bowl....
 
Why do indians love saying the word "bamboozle"
Cricinfo: For an 18-year-old, Aamer is playing like a veteran. He's got so many tricks in his wrist at the point of delivery, and his control of late swing is simply bamboozling. Tim Paine, the first-innings top-scorer, has three slips
 
the commentators cannot stop praising this 18 year old beauty....cant believe how can such a talent be nurtured at such a young age....he is the best in the business....looks like he has been playing test cricket since the last 10 years
 
pak need to bring the slips forward for asif....waqar should send out a message
 
Aamer can get the whole lineup if he wants, but Asif deserves Clarkes wicket

Clarke is absolutely clueless and Asif deserves that wicket

First slip should stand in front of the keeper then?

Big Mac! good question.
Its a keeper job to actually have a good judgment of bowler pace and make adjustment according to that.Slips will always stand according to where the keeper stands.
I have seen it for many years now that Kami is not that good in this department.
When we had Rashid & Moin we use to have drop catches but not many those catches fails to carry to the slip fielders.
 
asif got edge of clarke's bat 2 times that went to 3rd slip but there is still no 3rd slip

the commentary person on cricinfo right now is liam something....no indian
 
Commentators reckon Amir will be in the top 10 Test bowlers soon, inshAllah
 
Aamir coming round the wicket.....with 3 slips and gully to Clarke....

bowls down the leg and thats fifity for clarke
 
Still 5 wickets to take and Clarke is still there!

Game is still very much on!

We need to run through the tail here!
 
damn! with clarke their i see the lead going up. We cudnt get T-Pain out in the first innings till the very end when he went on a rampage. fingers crossed
 
What do guys think will be the target for us??
I say we will be chasing 130.
 
Come on pakistan will have 11 men against 6 (and Austalia have lost all their top order apart from clarke. Paine isn't as good a batsman as haddin in my opinion). We should be able to win this :)
 
amir looking tired hope gul follows up with what the opening bowlers have done

Maybe he's a fan of Teletext based quiz games? :11:

but Australia has the lead..almost the same situation like sydney meaning half australian side down chasing our lead...and thats when akmal started dropping the catches...oh Dear..who will it be to spoil this time =/......

Akmal you legend...just dropped Paine...Sydney flashback...

I'm happy with Kami so far. He's got the ability to be a good wicket keeper (he's very good in T20s for some reason). Just needs to keep his concentration.

wasn't an edge anyway.

Then we had to stave off Hussey and the defensive fields of Yousaf but, you get the feeling Butt, is far more imaginative in his approach to captaincy!!

Refer to Umar Amin!!
