Pakistan v England | 2nd Test | Abu Dhabi | Jan 26th, 2012 | Day 2

[Pakhtoon_Rules]

I blame Miandad for motivating England.

+1 lol

 

[Pakhtoon_Rules]

The pitch has become placid....... someone plzzzzzz dig it up....

We need AFRIDI

 

[OZGOD]

Athers calling the Pak bowlers unskilled and Aamir Sohail sitting back and taking it

 

[Ruri]

Good fielding, throwing themselves around...

 

[Justcrazy]

I think everyone should bowl two overs each , never know who gets a wicket , whose lucky day is it.

 

[Ruri]

Athers calling the Pak bowlers unskilled and Aamir Sohail sitting back and taking it

The seamers... And yes, they're not as good.

 

[Fawad2010]

Swann has bowled better on this wicket.

So far.

agreed.

At this point, I think Pakistanis are just waiting for something to happen.

 

[Ruri]

I think everyone should bowl two overs each , never know who gets a wicket , whose lucky day is it.

I'd like them to start with Gul, if they will.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Athers calling the Pak bowlers unskilled and Aamir Sohail sitting back and taking it

Other than ajmal, he probably is spot on.

 

[liaqat]

our fast bowler hav/t been able to penetrate their batting ,
gul has shown his a pathan with out a brain,

england bowlers used their brains n pitched the ball on a good length so it hits top of offstump.
n it worked,,
this is where the coatchin staff come in to it n make plans,

 

[Pakhtoon_Rules]

Misbah himself will do do for me

 

[Fawad2010]

Just put two spinners on, and choke up the runs

 

[Justcrazy]

The match is drifting away ........ someone stop it.

 

[liaqat]

misbah lack's imagination sometimes like now,,
azhar can bowl, so can myk,, give them a over or two,

 

[Pakhtoon_Rules]

By the end of day 3 Eng will have a lead of 300.

 

[qamar84]

what is going on here

 

[Justcrazy]

Is the Pakistan bowling coach with them here in the stadium or is he off to do some shopping?

 

[qamar84]

and another

 

[Sledger]

Too straight - four runs. Hundred up for England.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Wow we are losing control here in trouble.

 

[Digital]

Toiling us.......................

 

[PakPosheeda]

what is going on here

What do you mean? They finally hit a four. They had been boring everyone's pants off till now.

[James]

Christopher Martin-Jenkins and Geoff Boycott on TMS <3

[Vegitto1]

Athers calling the Pak bowlers unskilled and Aamir Sohail sitting back and taking it

Pace bowlers are though at this moment in time.

 

[Sledger]

Back to Back fours.

 

[James]

agreed.

At this point, I think Pakistanis are just waiting for something to happen.

#themisbaheffect

 

[PakPosheeda]

Give Younis a bowl!

 

[Torpedo]

Need a wicket badly.

 

[Justcrazy]

Nothing can be done now........... dream run comes to end........ he should retire

 

[OZGOD]

England trail by 151. Lead should be erased by stumps.

 

[Sledger]

106/1.

 

[Aampakistani]

the decision to bat first looks a very poor one given the same thing happened against South Africa

 

[qamar84]

i don't understand their spinners played so well and ours look like indian bowlers)

 

[Justcrazy]

Disappointing day here ..............

 

[qamar84]

Eng 106/1

 

[IAJ]

Seems like Pakistan took England batting too easy after the first Test match.

This team is after all no.1 in the world and they are showing why.

As I have mentioned earlier the ball does alot on the first day at this ground. Even Pakistan blew away SL on the first day here and then there were scores of 500+ and 400+.

If we can get England out for under 300 we are still in this match.

But need some wickets now.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Aur karo Batting first...

And Badsha gi where are you?

 

[deviously~fading~away]

Athers calling the Pak bowlers unskilled and Aamir Sohail sitting back and taking it

Does he really need to say something when Pakistan lead 1-0?

 

[IAJ]

the decision to bat first looks a very poor one given the same thing happened against South Africa

You mean Sri Lanka?

 

[qamar84]

we should get one of this 2 out now or they are going to score a mamouth lead

 

[Sledger]

Rehman being ridiculously underused.

 

[Hassan0987]

Hafeez replacing Junaid

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

come on professor break the partnership my boy

 

[Sledger]

Hafeez is back, at least it's spin at both ends.

 

[RehanG]

Nothing can be done now........... dream run comes to end........ he should retire

shutup

 

[Justcrazy]

Where is the hyped Teesra of .

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

By the end of day 3 Eng will have a lead of 300.

well now you are talking way ahead of the game.

 

[James]

Does he really need to say something when Pakistan lead 1-0?

I agree. In fact, commentators should not talk at all. They should get to keep their mics though, those are neat mics.

 

[Britstani]

Pak read the pitch wrong....should of stuck to bowling 1st. also cheema shouldnt of been dropped.

Pitch looks dead already.

 

[Asif321]

anyways we will not loose must have made arrangment for safety

 

[James]

Rehman being ridiculously underused.

Poor captaincy from Misbah today.

No plan B.

 

[Justcrazy]

is been given too many overs.

 

[Sledger]

Cook looking shaky against the Prof.

 

[Vegitto1]

that was out!

 

[JibranAnsari]

yar stop overreacting (including me), the pitch has eased out with minimal of turn and movement.Though Gul bowl criminally bad but there isn't much bowlers can do at the moment.

 

[ads101]

[Justcrazy]

England marching towards a back breaking lead for Pakistan.......... will have the last laugh

[Vegitto1]

[bluffmasterv2]

Sigh Misbah or Ajmal two wrongs dont make a right, was clearly impact outside at best was umpires call

 

[Sledger]

[Asif321]

[Justcrazy]

[ads101]
