Pakistan V India | 1st Test Lahore | Official Day 1 Thread [13/1/06]

34.4 Pathan to Shoaib Malik, no run, short one banged in. At Pathan's
pace on this pitch it's not really going to trouble Malik


lol

am wondering why kumble wasnt brought on before harbhajan, 2ndly harbajhan has never done anything of note v pakistan!

Well CB bhai, he has taken 6 for 122 against us at Bangalore. Nothing to write home about, but it was the manner he bowled and just kept coming back at our batsmen.

Second of all, look at that rough way outside off stump. Who is going to use that rough better? Kumble or Harbhajan? If Kumble pitches there the ball will turn to slip...wide of slip! Meanwhile, Harbhajan can entice a batsmen to be drawn on the front foot for a bat pad.
 
Did Harbajahn get injured or something?
I saw him rolling on the ground, did he bowl after that?
 
about the pitch he says..its intresting ..alot of turn.....lets see how it pans out..on malik has played well ...did so against england unlucky to get out....but playing well....on the conditions saying we need to make big score n remember england were 100 for no wicket n 28o all out so i will keep em reminding about that!
 
Folks its a decent start. pakistan should look for victory. I thought it was very silly of Salman butt. Though it looks like it will turn as a blessing in disguise. malik and younis batted with extra caution and oneof them shud get a huge score and Pakistan will be safe in this match.
Indian bowling is not looking impressive. somthing is missing
 
Pakistan at 110/1 at lunch. Terrific effort by Malik and Younis. Now Malik needs to go on and make a good solid score (And silence his critics once and for all). Singh and Kumble not looking a threat at the moment. Thats good news.
 
Still no Lahoris at the ground.
Very poor ambience.
 
alright guys its lunch now ..and for me its dinner time.....so see u all after the break.....i hope u dont miss me that much :P

oo onoo ok ........n do i need to remind u what u had said previously thanks for nothing???
 
imran khan : if i was inzi i wouldnt be that much happy regarding the pitch...this is not a helping pitch at all...during the course of the game the pitch is going to get flatter....this game might end towards a draw unless a team bats poorly......ball is rarly carying to the keeper......

nasser hussain : i agree with imran not alot in the pitch ...india didnt bowl that well..bowled back of a legnth

Kidding yaar, tum ja ke dinner khao.
 
imran khan : i was a little surprized to see pathan bowl...i saw him bowl a couple of yrz ago he bowled over 85 mps n now hes hardly 80 mphs..so speed is the essence here...im afraid with those conditions even if u swing it wont matter

I have stopped listening to Imran Khan.
 
octavian, you can add Younis Khan to that list as well. He is very close to actually topping the list of Indian bashers. :)
 
what time does match start please:

i cant stand this anymore, there are white man doing bhangra at the moment.(on canadian television).
 
Indians are a bowler short. If Ganguly is a bowler then so is Younis Khan. Watch the pitch. It will magically start assisting the bowlers when Pakistan comes on to bowl. Either way we got 2 pacers a seamer 2 very good spinners and a okay offie. If Pakistan can bat through to lunch tommorrow it will be a uphill battle for India to save the test.

Hi guys I have been watching the match from about 11.00 am (PST) on Ten Sports, I missed the Salman Butt run-out, have seen the replays, it was farcical runing, credit must go to Yuvi for a great thorw. Till lunch it has been a decent performance sprinkled with some nice strokeplay from both Malik and Younis. They've built on a platform I guess it is time to build on it the rest of the day.

Coming to the post match analysis (Straight Drive) with Manjrekar, Imran, and Hussain. Imran doesn't like Malik, he is against him, he wants a specialist opener, he has nothing nice to say about Malik. Comes of as being very negative. He also said first up that the match is headed for a draw. Oh well, I guess he has a right to his opinion.

Looking forward for the post-lunch sessions.

Will they have an extended break for jumah namaz?

"The players will take a 60-minute break and so will we.
This is Anand Vasu signing off at the moment. See you again with
all the action from the second session at about 0800 GMT, 1255pm
Pakistan time, 1325 India time"

I guess they do have an extended break for jummah
 
Younis and Malik need 2 carry on from where they left and v can't afford 2 lose more than 1 wicket in dis session.

I dont know why Imran Khan talks crap these days
 
Imran was making a point about Pathan, that he's become a heck lot slower, apparently Imran said when pathan came out 2 years ago he was around 85-87 mph, he seems to have dropped in pace quite a bit, he's consistantly bowling at 80-82 mph.
