cricinfo says rana and sami out
and its rana who has been dropped, sami is not well.
 
India have gone in with five bowlers. Sourav Ganguly and Ajit
Agarkar miss out, while Zaheer Khan and RP Singh come in
When it comes to the teams, Pakistan were forced to make one change
with Mohammad Sami taking ill. He has been replaced by Mohammad
Asif
Rana Naved-ul-Hasan also misses out, with Abdul Razzaq coming into
the team

:O Gonna be a great confidence booster for them!!

and why on earth Razzaq
 
ooo chakkkkkkkh dey pathaeyyyyyyyyyyyyy ..we won the toss againnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn !!!!!!!!yaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy............
 
Looks to me like India have made a positive move by including two bowlers for a batter and a useless bugger and Pak go for extra batters? I am peed off!!

as if Pakistan won the test :)
 
India going with FIVE bowlers and Pakistan added Razzaq replacing Rana...........This is ridiculous stuff from Pakistan. I don't think we deserve to win with this NEGATIVE midset, still good luck to PAKISTAN :(
 
Salman Butt, Shoaib Malik, Younis Khan, *Inzamam-ul-Haq,
Mohammad Yousuf, Shahid Afridi, Abdul Razzaq, +Kamran Akmal,
Shoaib Akhtar, Mohammad Asif, Danish Kaneria.
 
Rana was the one guy who got a wicket at lahore. And then he has swung the ball both ways, and I think maybe leave Asif out and play Rana.
 
Strange strange selection by Pak..As an Ind fan,Im quite happy with Pak move!Seems extremely negative while Ind going in for an extra bowler!

that too we will inshAllah!! think positive........
geoff boycott on zaheer khan : very gud bowler can also bowl from around the wickets....and also a gud looking lad :))):))):)))
 
No..Razzaq should have been left out.. much as I like him in ODi's we should have goe with a specialist bowler whether Rana or Gul..

u never know.......i have seen funnier things happen in cricket....they might know something that we all dont thats u have these silly changes :)
 
Razzaq for Sami..Poor Sami must be at an alltime low on his confidence..I dont believe this sickness story..His being dropped has been doing the rounds right from end of first test and he conveniently gets sick??
 
anywayz peeps razzi is playing so no more negative things about him.......yay pakistan send him n afridi as an opener :D
 
selection is done, get over it. save the critisicm for after the match.
 
Inzi is sacred to lose thats all i can understand. Packed his team with batsman. India is the only team which has shown any inclination to win this game. India might end up losing the game because of batting but atleast we have backed out batting...
 
Fair enuff cavin..But it doesnt take a genius to know whats going on..Pak is terrfied to lose and they are going for an extra batting..Whether it works out is a diff story but at the outset ,its a negativr move.

If Asif fails Pakistan has only one bowler Shoaib Akhtar, in big trouble

dont worry if thats the case then chances are u might not see akhtar bowling more then 10 overs...he will be well n truely on his way out with his ankle injury ;););-)

Glad you are backing a bad decision by your team

well we can talk all week about this.........they are the prof.......whatever they think is right they will do(mind u alot of thinking must have gone behind it) i personally would have kept the same playing 11 as the last test.....but there u go thats why im giving u the updates n inzi is the captain :D
 
inshAllah....so true! >>>>>>>India might end up losing the game because of batting but atleast we have backed out batting...

WHY on Earth has Rana been dropped???????????
If the team managemnt can shwo faith in Sami on the basis of nothing for 2 yrs...why has Rana been dropped!!
 
all 3 quick bowlers from india are left arm seamers n if im correct r.p singh makes his debut innit?

I think its because he is balding, and Sami has that thick lustrous hair.

If only your captain Inzi had the heart the size of his tummy you would be winning more matches.

Pak take 1 wkt with 4 bowlers conceding 400 odd runs..What do they do???Play with 3 bowlers in the next !Brilliant!
 
alright peeps plays about to begin....malik n butt come out..........its not the team selection im worried about its the umpire....who goes by the name of rudi korztan........!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pakistan with a worse attack than this one won in Bangalore, strange things happen.
 
Mohommad Asif ????!!!!! Rana Gone???!!!!! I have no hope. I just hope we do well even with this combination. A little dissapointed.

And if he had it the size of Sehwags tummy, we would be the number one team in the world.
 
balls moving away from butt..seems in some trouble but the balls coming at a snails pace so no major worries one should think pak 5 without any wicket
