[Bullet Drive]

How long will it take PAK to understand Z.Babar is absolutely terrible. Fat and rubbish.

"This match is crying out for some WWE level excitement. Waqar Younis running out of the dressing room, gives Rahat Ali a stone cold stunner during his run up and then grabs the ball and delivers one of those toe crushing yorkers to get these english batsmen out" - from cricinfo

)

That would sure spice up things

Judging from his figures, the only thing rubbish is your post

 

[Bullet Drive]

Forget this I'm going out to eat. Can't deal with this rubbish test no more )

250 for Cookymonsta. He wants more........

 

[Abdullah719]

This the most boring TEST ever?

To me it is.

Tbh, there are many; the following one comes in with a shout.

'I am a captain not a groundsman' -

 

[Bullet Drive]

Saeed Ajmal > Babar. Even now.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Come on bring Wahab back on - he seems to be the only one doing something with the ball.

 

[Bullet Drive]

518-5

 

[Abdullah719]

Please bring Wahab back before I fall asleep.

On one level I want Wahab to bowl because I can't take more of Babar's lethargic bowling.

On another level I want him to play the next Test match more.

 

[uberkoen]

522-5

 

[Abdullah719]

Cook has now batted for 800 minutes (according to CI, anyway); based on the available records, he would be the third after Hanif and Kirsten to that mark.

I'd pay to watch that )

 

[uberkoen]

That should have been given.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Sir Alastair Cook is better than Malik . What a player

 

[Watsupdoc]

That should have been given.

These umpires have amazing patience. If I were in their place, I would give any 50/50 out, just to make the match interesting.

 

[Robert]

Incredibly, England take the lead.

 

[Abdullah719]

Babar just needs to bowl another 10 wicketless overs to hold the record for the most overs bowled without taking a wicket. Backing him to get it. Go Babar!

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Incredibly, England take the lead.

Hoping for a win here?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Cook has played the longest innings in terms of time taken in English history.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Someone please get Cook out - it's getting boring to watch him now

 

[The_KING]

No man of the match for Malik. Fallen King and MRSN in ruins

 

[Red Devil]

OMG a wicket.. At last.

 

[uberkoen]

Bowled!



Finally a wicket for spin.

 

[hussain.r97]

Someone please get Cook out - it's getting boring to watch him now

He's pure class. I've given up on this game, just enjoy the batting

On a positive note, at least this game isn't distracting me from exams too much.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Did a spinner just get a wicket or am i seeing things

 

[Abdullah719]

Scenes! A wicket for spin!

 

[hussain.r97]

Who cares, it'll be a draw whatever the case.

 

[Ahson8]

Bloody hell; wicket for a spinner!!!

 

[Nikhil_cric]

You have the lead atleast now bash these tired bowlers and try and make a match of it . Turn on T20 mode.

 

[Mamoon]

Malik only spinner to take a wicket. Someone please check on Waleed88.

 

[Watsupdoc]

A spinner takes a wicket! Finally!

 

[Asadullah]

Stokes pretty much got bored.

Buttler next...

 

[Robert]

Hoping for a win here?

No chance!

 

[Abdullah719]

1021 balls it took for a spinner to get a wicket.

 

[Robert]

Buttler can't play spin any better than Bairstow....

 

[Watsupdoc]

He's pure class. I've given up on this game, just enjoy the batting

On a positive note, at least this game isn't distracting me from exams too much.

I think this match could be a good sleep therapy for people suffering from Insomnia.

 

[the Great Khan]

No chance!

you have a chance..if you can bowl us out tommorrow in a session and a half its possible..in asia a match can change very quickly in a session..

 

[Abdullah719]

No man of the match for Malik. Fallen King and MRSN in ruins

Kuch ziyada hee jaldi bol liya aap ne.

Watch for his 5-fer now. Insha'Allah.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Just dont let him make 300. Get the ones on the other end out! Cook aint gettin out

 

[Nikhil_cric]

No chance!

Well considering how defensively they are batting even now after taking the lead I'm inclined to agree.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Looks like they are playing for the end of the day...

 

[Mamoon]

Cook has some stamina.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Looks like they are playing for the end of the day...

Which is kinda pointless when you're ahead no? Instead of trying to send the opposition into a leather hunt.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Which is kinda pointless when you're ahead no? Instead of trying to send the opposition into a leather hunt.

They'll probably come out all guns blazing tomorrow morning.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Reverse sweep by buttler.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Cook has some stamina.

I thought you were done with this test series?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

They'll probably come out all guns blazing tomorrow morning.

Yeah probably.

 

[Mamoon]

I thought you were done with this test series?

Someone texted me that Malik took a wicket. Had to troll his haters.

 

[Mamoon]

Haji Sarfraz's appeal

 

[Watsupdoc]

That was out

 

[Watsupdoc]

Someone texted me that Malik took a wicket. Had to troll his haters.

So, have you done that now, haven't you?

Plus to troll them, you don't really need to watch the match

 

[Asif321]

sarfraz appeal

 

[Mamoon]

So, have you done that now, haven't you?

Plus to troll them, you don't really need to watch the match

Yes I am done, time to go hospital anyway.

 

[Abdullah719]

Babar to Cook - I sincerely hope to never have to go through this torture again.

 

[rogue marine]

umpiring has been top class this match . no prejudice whatsoever

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Cook gone to Malik. Best bowler and batsman in Pakistan team

 

[Watsupdoc]

Cook out!!! )

Shukur hai this one was not dropped

 

[Kianig89]

Chef finally Rashid sb comes out

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Adil bhai. They should start slogging here. The pitch is turning and they won't last long anyway IMO.

 

[Mamoon]

Malik inflicting more misery on his haters. )

 

[Mamoon]

I hope Rashid bhai scores runs so that his average is not disturbed.

 

[The_KING]

If Cook doesn't get man of the match for his heroic innings, I would be ******. What a player.

 

[Watsupdoc]

The pitch is definitely taking some turn now.

 

[hussain.r97]

Bring Wahab on now! Bowl Wahab and Malik in tandem, let's see who can get a fifer first

 

[Watsupdoc]

Lol Cook was out on a no-ball )

 

[Lurker_Ind]

Isn't that a no-ball?

Foot lands outside the crease and then drags it back. Is Cook unlucky?

 

[Mamoon]

Only Malik went to shake Cook's hand. Poor stuff.

 

[Ahson8]

Lol, Cook might have been dismissed off a no-ball

 

[waleed88]

Countdown to action being reported

 

[Mamoon]

Malik dragged his foot back right before delivering the ball, so it was not a no-ball and that is why the umpire didn't bother to check with the TV umpire.

 

[Lurker_Ind]

Poor effort from Rahat. Should have been stopped.

 

[The_KING]

That was a no ball. Once again poor umpiring in this match. Cook robbed of a 300.

 

[Lurker_Ind]

England should go on all attack, add 50 more runs today and declare tomorrow morning.

 

[jusarrived]

Only Malik went to shake Cook's hand. Poor stuff.

Saw shafiq shaking hand before Malik
