Pakistan v England | 3rd Test | Sharjah | Nov 1-5, 2015 | Day 4

[ahanank]

This is complete ********!

 

[ExplicitAI]

Umpire's call

 

[Anchorman]

Abay yaar! Zulfiqar should've had both Cook and Root by now. Incompetent umpiring. Both deliveries were clipping and this one just looked dead.

 

[saeed-sohail]

That's where umpires call can really hurt you.

[Watsupdoc]

Good review though.

 

[walashi]

Babar stop taking useless review

 

[Enigma_]

Looked so plumb real time.

 

[The_KING]

Zulfi never gets his reviews right.

 

[Aviator]

Hate this zulfiqar.. he loses two more reviews

 

[ViciousMachine]

Oh wow, are you kidding me... Both umpires call against us.... Looked plumb real time

 

[Amjid Javed]

The review system has to be looked at here! its pathetic!

 

[ahanank]

Good review though.

Both were worth it.
It stopped cook from sweeping and now root is confused as well.

 

[FreakCricket]

kia baymaani hai bhai

 

[JibranAnsari]

damn it umpires call. I hate it I hate it I hate it

 

[ahanank]

Zulfi bowling beautifully here!

 

[dhump]

Zulfiqar is master of useless reviews...Honestly don't like his over excitement and no result.

 

[Watsupdoc]

[MENTION=134809]sensible-indian-fan[/MENTION]

I agree with you now, teams shouldn't lose reviews for umpires call...

 

[Ahson8]

Shouldn't have wasted both reviews...

 

[Watsupdoc]

That second review looked dead though in real time.

 

[pak4life]

suprised the umpire did not give that real time that looked out. England got quiet a few decisions just clipping the stumps.

 

[Amjid Javed]

3 overs to go, one more wicket needed.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Yasir in.

 

[90MPH]

Babar has been very unlucky.

Bowled very well without any luck.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Come on Shah, need a wicket

 

[Slog]

[MENTION=134809]sensible-indian-fan[/MENTION]

Yes umpires call shouldn't lead to wasted review.

Only blatant not outs should lead to a review waste

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

[MENTION=134809]sensible-indian-fan[/MENTION]

Haha....yeah bro. Its a bad rule that punishes intelligent reviews too.

 

[The_KING]

Why are you so weirdly defensive all the time? I didn't make a comparison with the bat so I'm not even going to debate on that. Was just talking about how this will give Malik confidence in ODIs and we may see Hafeez-like performances in ODIs, with the ball i.e economical overs with the odd wicket or two.

Chill out. Not every poster has an agenda.

Lol my bad I thought you made a comparison. Sorry.

 

[The_KING]

Zulfi has bowled well today

 

[Arsal_AK]

That second review looked dead though in real time.

He bowls from a really wide angle.

They didnt take that i to account while reviewing.

 

[ahanank]

You see, root is confused now.

 

[timeflies]

Not sure why people are bashing Babar for using up the review there, it looked so out in real time. Bloody umpires call

 

[Watsupdoc]

Both were worth it.
It stopped cook from sweeping and now root is confused as well.

First one was maybe not worth it, but second one was very very close.

 

[Enigma_]

I agree, if it is umpire's call you shouldn't lose a review OR another option is that you lose a review if you get 2 umpire's calls against you. Idk it feels very redundant imho.

 

[Amjid Javed]

The loss of two reviews so early could be fatal now!

 

[akamaka]

so far 3-4 lbw calls are umpire calls, and we have no reviews left

 

[Watsupdoc]

Haha....yeah bro. Its a bad rule that punishes intelligent reviews too.

Yea the last one was very close and to me looked out at the first instance.

 

[Robert]

You've only had two proper batsmen for the entire series and three for this last match. Baffling that they didn't play Taylor prior to this.

On reflection they should have gone back to Nick Compton who did OK in India and can at least stay in. Bell is finished, Bairstow weak against spin. One can only wonder how the would have done if the side was:

Cook
Hales
Compton
Roooooooooot
Taylor
Stokes
Moeen
Someone who can actually keep wicket - Foster?
Adil
Broad
Finn
Anderson

 

[ahanank]

We are better off without the reviews.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Some excellent bowling by all spinners.

 

[Watsupdoc]

He bowls from a really wide angle.

They didnt take that i to account while reviewing.

Even so, it looked dead in real time.

Looks a better side on paper that's for sure.

 

[Amjid Javed]

one more wicket! please!

 

[m.shah]

Cooks looks in pressure

 

[ahanank]

7 more wickets to go.
Not bad for the final day!

 

[Shoaib war]

I think ball completely missing should lead to lose of review.

 

[Enigma_]

Botham having a whinge.

 

[ahanank]

Botham is so bitter.

 

[pak4life]

why is botham being soo smug England will get rolled over tomorrow.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Botham pretty mad

 

[Markhor]

Misbah having a debate with the umpires like a football player chatting to a referee as they walk off at full time.

 

[ahanank]

Botham!
Wow, mate!

 

[dhump]

I would have preferred another wicket...Pakistan need to do some hard work first thing in the morning.

Game pretty much in balance for me, English batsman will get better if partnership start to build here...I hope for the pitch to start acting in the morning.

Only legends do that

 

[dhump]

what is he exactly saying ?

 

[Arsal_AK]

Eng to get out before 200 tomorrow.

Morning session is the hardest for any team here.
Expect quick wickets early in the morning tomorrow.

England might be BIG 3 but even they aren't allowed to field 12 players in a Test.

 

[Slog]

Botham having a whinge.

Tell me sth new

What did he say. Missed last 2 overs

 

[JibranAnsari]

Botham shouldnt be allowed to commentate in a pakistan match.

 

[ahanank]

what is he exactly saying ?

Can't hear anything over his continuous whinging!

 

[Slog]

England might be BIG 3 but even they aren't allowed to field 12 players in a Test.

It's 11. Read again

Foster is the suggested keeper

I agree. Cook was looking shaky and would have gotten out soon enough

Tomorrow is a new day and if he gets in its impossible to get him out

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

The side needs a keeper. So it's 12. I am afraid he'll have to drop someone.

 

[The_KING]

Yeah, he is clearly anti Pakistani.

 

[Ahson8]

Could have been in a better position if atleast one of those Zulfiqar appeals was given out.
But will still go on to win tomorrow inshaAllah.

 

[dhump]

I hope that this break works in favor of Pakistan...Anyways it is no easy task for England and normally we panic less with the ball so chances are that we will get them before its too late.

It's 12..

When Pakistan is on a roll with the ball, they are hard to stop.

It's 12..

Oh ok. Just noticed. My bad

 

[AlphaFighter]

Is there a single English batsman who can bat at a run a ball or more to push Pakistan? If England keep defending and batting cook style, it will prove detrimental to them, the pitch is going to take more and more turn tommorow. Even Malik will be a dangerous option.

Actually Cook,Root,Taylor,Braistow,Patel all can bat and can score quite quickly...Question is how much trouble we create for them....Last overs were hopeful for Pakistan so I hope we get them on the wall tomorrow.
