[Sledger]

104/7.

 

[yeh_cheezzz]

was that a dropped catch?

 

[Sledger]

Adnan dropped another.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Swann hitting :4

 

[Strike!]

Dropped?

 

[Watsupdoc]

Dropped?

 

[Syed Ali Imran]

Cheema to Prior pulled for 1, Swann on strike..

 

[Sledger]

Pulled for a single.

 

[Nemo]

Yep. That's 2 chances missed by Akmal.

Déjà vu?

 

[Strike!]

Akmal's keeping against Ajmal hasn't improved.

 

[iHammad]

Get 1 more in this session boys

 

[Impala_KaifTamasha]

Only hit the pad.

 

[Watsupdoc]

there was an inside edge?

 

[Syed Ali Imran]

Dropped?

Yup, There was an inside edge, according to HotSpot

 

[Swaraj!!]

Oooh......he is still an Akmal....even if way better than the other one.....

 

[talha3]

That has to go down as a chance

 

[Sledger]

Adnan keeping like big bro.

 

[ZAK]

Boycott is ripping in to Broad for his habit of wasting reviews over on TMS.

 

[Fire Bird]

England Pwned

 

[Sledger]

Only hit the pad.

Nope. HotSpot showed the edge.

 

[kkmix]

Why is Cheema bowling????? He doesn't look like getting wicket. Bring Rehman.

 

[talha3]

Wasn't easy, but he would have expected to take it.

 

[ZAK]

106/7.

 

[Syed Ali Imran]

2 off Cheema's over as England moves on to 106/7.

 

[Sledger]

England have had a lot more of the luck and are STILL 106/7.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Adnan is getting tired I think, couldn't take that one cleanly either...

 

[iHammad]

Dubai main pehle martaba baja baj raha hai, crowd main!

 

[Nemo]

Akmal isn't inspiring much confidence here, dropping regulation leaves as well.

 

[jattafridi]

Bring hafeez tuk tuk

 

[Syed Ali Imran]

single to swann off ajmal.. prior on strike..

 

[Swaraj!!]

C'mon Prior.....no use blocking.....swing some while you still have partners

 

[ZAK]

2 to Prior.

 

[Syed Ali Imran]

couple to prior off ajmal..

 

[Osman]

it wasnt a drop that mark was of bat hitting pad

 

[Sledger]

Spin at both ends plz.

 

[iHammad]

England getting frustrated

 

[yeh_cheezzz]

I think Hafeezzz is not going to bowl he is done with his job for this inning

 

[Syed Ali Imran]

couple more to prior off ajmal..

 

[ZAK]

2 more to Prior.

 

[Swaraj!!]

Good one......""Saeed: Watch out Akmal, a tough chance is coming your way. Akmal: Don't worry, i have missed much easier ones.""

 

[Sledger]

it wasnt a drop that mark was of bat hitting pad

HotSpot doesn't show a small, serperated dot unless it's the ball. And you could see the edge on the replay.

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

come on ... we need to finish this off ...

 

[ZAK]

111/7.

 

[ZAK]

Cheema to continue.

 

[Sledger]

Cheema bowling six in a row..

 

[Swaraj!!]

Look at the RPO of the mpacers vs spinners and wonder why they are still on.....

 

[jattafridi]

cheema swann ko bouncer maar yaar

 

[Sledger]

Toe-ended pull. Cheema must be bowling at some serious pace.

 

[kkmix]

No idea why cheema is still bowling, he is releasing the pressure from the other end that Ajmal is creating.

 

[Sledger]

Shades of Shoaib Akhtar's slower ball. Great dip.

 

[Sledger]

Bring on Rehman from this end next over.

 

[Syed Ali Imran]

4 to Prior.. 116/7.

 

[ZAK]

 

[Sledger]

Edged for four.

 

[Sledger]

116/7.

 

[iHammad]

Last 10 ovs 34/2 RR 3.40

[yeh_cheezzz]

[hazen_batti]

Why Cheema why

 

[kkmix]

[ZAK]

to Swann.

 

[Syed Ali Imran]

4 more to swann, he is on attack against Ajmal!

 

[Sledger]

Driven for four again. Fielder dives over it.

 

[Impala_KaifTamasha]

[hazen_batti]

 

[DOOSRA95]

[ZAK]

120/7.

 

[Sledger]

Ok, bring on Rehman now.

 

[Swaraj!!]

Oh c'mon....why so much air......sounds silly when I say but Ajmal seems to be giving too much air to the tailenders

 

[Syed Ali Imran]

120/7.

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

[Amjid Javed]
