Pakistan v England | 1st Test | Abu Dhabi | Oct 13-17 | Day 2

[Arsal_AK]

Declared.

Thank god.

 

[Fallen King]

lol..shoaib out for a magnificent 375..heard Hanif sent his congratulations..

Haha...Now i am looking forward to see 375 runs in the next test match. Thank you for the valuable gift.

 

[Fallen King]

Too late to declare. Shoaib Malik would have looked good as unbeaten batsman.

 

[shaaik]

What's Misbah trying to achieve here .. There is no point wasting overs here, this may very well hurt us in the context of this game. We need as much time as possible to take 20 wickets here and Misbah seems to be living in some different world. .. common for god sake call it a day ..

eh? Ask this from Anderson and Broad who've been bending their backs since yesterday and haven't fallen down yet. Not used to the heat either.

Malik hasn't trained for Test cricket so he's not 100% fit yet.

Malik has been running around for over 10 hours. Batting takes a lot of energy and concentration. And there are no breaks.

Anderson hasnt plus he has had ample rest at third man etc. Plus he can go off as well.

Not a great comparision.

 

[zabalestmsm]

Good declaration.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Finally declared

Not a great comparision.

Misbah has two factors; hit and block. Shoaib Malik offers more which include strike rotation added with running for single, double, triple all day long - two days to be precise. Somehow he managed to do that. Kya aadmi hai!

 

[zabalestmsm]

Hopefully Malik will attain Test cricket fitness with time and get used to it.

 

[Fallen King]

youll have to wait another decade for that..lol

In fifth dimensional world, that is second test match in this series.

 

[zabalestmsm]

Did anyone notice Ian Bell held 2 catches?
The unsung hero [emoji14]

 

[the Great Khan]

In fifth dimensional world, that is second test match in this series.

lol so your are from another dimension then!!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Wahab Riaz to Moeen Ali.... bouncer to him will be good.

 

[zabalestmsm]

Lol @ Adil Rashid's figures.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Aadil rashid worst figures by debutant in test match history

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Wahab Riaz to Moeen Ali.... bouncer to him will be good.

Yeah hes weak against short stuff

 

[Fallen King]

lol so your are from another dimension then!!

How else i would have known his precise comeback in that specific year?

 

[Asif321]

immy will be crucial

 

[Bullet Drive]

I hope Moeen gets a first ball duck.

 

[zabalestmsm]

Moeen Ali will fall today. At least him.

 

[Asif321]

fawad

 

[Amjid Javed]

23 overs for england to bat, we should look to get them 3/4 wickets down here by close of play.

 

[the Great Khan]

need to get cook out early..

 

[Fallen King]

Fawad Alam? Verrry Niiiice!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Poor fawad alam. Fielding short leg and not in the playing 11. Cant deny hes an absolutely brilliant fielder

 

[Strike Rate]

 

[Slog]

Clooose!!

Cook should have handed it haha

 

[the Great Khan]

chulo is this going to be wayward rahat??

 

[Bullet Drive]

Very tough pitch to bowl on...........

 

[Strike Rate]

Yeh Fawad ki jaga field per aya he? 25% to milne chahiyen isko from that players match fee

 

[Bullet Drive]

Cook and Root. That's all guys.

 

[Fallen King]

I was sipping coke before i read this.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Lets knock over Moeens off stump.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Moeen will do good.

 

[Ahson8]

Some movement for Rahat.

 

[Bullet Drive]

IK on now.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Cooks a real threat

 

[Strike Rate]

I was sipping coke before i read this.

akele akele pyoge to ayse he hoga

 

[Bullet Drive]

Umar Gul clone on now.

Have never really rated him. Lets hope he can prove me wrong.

 

[Asif321]

IK is dangerous here

 

[Bullet Drive]

517 more.

 

[Fallen King]

akele akele pyoge to ayse he hoga

Now you owe me clean shirt.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Imran Khan bowling on Cooks pads at 82mph......

 

[Bullet Drive]

Moeen looking very good.

We need 2 wickets by tonight. Doubt we get them.

 

[Bullet Drive]

I miss M.Asif. His off cutter.

 

[Strike Rate]

Now you owe me clean shirt.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rubbish bowling so far.

 

[last_knight]

Lets assume Imran Khan,after his first two overs, will be creating chances. Wicket keeper and company ! Get yourself ready

 

[JibranAnsari]

This pitch has nothing , wont be surprised if england end up scoring 450 plus as well.

 

[Ahson8]

Review.

 

[Red Devil]

Thats closee

 

[marlonbrowndo]

If this goes umpires call ill kill someone

 

[Robert]

I hope Moeen gets a first ball duck.

Why?

 

[Ahson8]

Damn it, so close

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Hate these marginal decisions!!!!! So bloody ******

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Umpires call

 

[Naim]

Unlucky rahat

 

[Barragan]

That was so close.

 

[Naim]

and English commies are saying right decision

 

[LegbreakGoogly]

Hit outside the line of stumps?

 

[zabalestmsm]

Good bowling by Rahat so far.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Pakistan badly need another new ball bowler

The sooner amir comes back the better for paksitan.

 

[Barragan]

I bet the ump would have given it if it was a Pak batsman
batsman.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Why?

Because he is playing for England and I support Pakistan.

 

[Madplayer]

unlucky ali

 

[zabalestmsm]

Here comes the series hero Zulfiqar Babar [emoji14]

 

[Syed2015]

Babar coming on.

 

[Ahson8]

Zulfiqar Baba on

 

[Robert]

Moeen has bowled thirty overs, it's daft asking him to open the batting.

 

[JibranAnsari]

I think wahab will get moin out.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good start by ENG

 

[Bullet Drive]

By the way Moeen was out by Rahat. Terrible decision by Paul and DRS. Paul Reifell is a useless umpire.

 

[Robert]

Because he is playing for England and I support Pakistan.

Fair enough.

 

[*syed59*]

Moeen has bowled thirty overs, it's daft asking him to open the batting.

dont quite understand the need for opening with him.. only reason might be that he might cope with spinners well from the start of the innings rather than at no6.. something to prevent a collapse if spin bowling proves effective.

 

[zabalestmsm]

I feel Cook will chop it onto his stumps.

 

[zabalestmsm]

How many overs remaining? Anyone

 

[Ahson8]

Cook looking dangerous.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Need to get cook and Root out early as they are two danger men for england.

 

[JibranAnsari]

How many overs remaining? Anyone

One hour or 16 overs.
