:))) :))) during the over break, Kamran goes to Umar and says "aaja Umar aaja, hum late ho rahe hain" because of the very slow over rate :))
 
Gul is hitting the length perfectly but needs to attack the stumps more frequently.
 
Silly field placements, horrible. Easy singles to both Paine and Clarke.

Asif needs to be put into the attack soon
 
Hopefully the lunch break will disrupt the momentum these two have had.Must attack Paine here,might want to bring on Danish just before Lunch.
 
We've been talking about the importance of morning session. So what do you reckon, Session Australia or Session Pakistan?
 
They're effectively 60-5 with the main batting gone. You can bowl them out and chase 100 to win.

Come on Pakistan, it's easy.
 
It's even stevens at the moment. Game still balanced, unless we get another wicket before they get a lead of 80 or so.
 
Salman Butt is such a defensive captain and is annoying Micheal holding with this field placement
 
Silly field placements, horrible. Easy singles to both Paine and Clarke.

There are only 11 fielders.

The guys with bat in their hands are test level batsmen who can hit deliveries into gaps.
 
Aamer not looking as good in the second spell, but that's understandable.. Asif needs to bowl, or Umar Amin.
 
If Aussies get another 100 runs then i believe they will win this match!
 
Aamir should come back after lunch and clean up!

lol, there are actually only 9 (11 minus bowler and keeper).

But still - a deep point? Deep square leg?! Seriously?
 
Clarke looking solid, and pakistan bowlers struggling to find a way to get Paine Out, Thinsg are nott looking good ! need a breakthrough
 
We will need some Aamer fireworks after lunch me thinks!
 
Aus 213/5 at lunch.

New session will provide us with a better chance to get an early wicket.
 
crappy fielding by danish kaneria, he has been useless in this test match.

15 more over till we get a new ball, we need to be careful about how we use the new ball. I would give kaneria the ball after lunch along with Umar gul and take the new ball straight away with Asif and Amir bowling.
 
My good feeling about this match at the beginning of today hasn't faded even one bit. So a little more faith in our boys, guys. This match is ours.
 
i think apart from asif , rest of bowlers have been below par in morning session

why cant our players kill of the bottom order why i ask???:aamir:asif:gul:danish:po::po:

anyway positive thing is that we have got 3 wickets in that session and test match should have an exciting en, inshallah Pakistan WILL WIN
 
We need to get rid of clarke before the new ball is due then finish the tail off. Still our match to lose no need to panic yet if the lead goes beyond 150 then we should!

You mean Amir right?
 
Wazeeri said:
You remove those and the bowler will be less likely to bowl wicket taking deliveries.

And we start hitting fours. Have to balance between run saving and taking wickets.

Finally and probably too late we are showing some fight. But still way in Pakistan's favour.

Might want to drop Danish for Ajmal in the Tests vs Eng

1. It is not a spinner's pitch. The game is not going to last that long.

2. England are not good at playing leg spin

3. Ajmal is rubbish when the batsmen don't attack him

4. Don't change a winning side
 
first hour for us, second hour for them...Gul and Kaneria really have to up their performances, we can't keep expecting Asif and Aamer to be the only ones to apply pressure!

Gul actually bowled really well in his last 5 overs. he is still struggling with his run up though.
