[Pace]

Deano just mentioned Dravid and Laxman both ran into the pavillion at the drinks break probably to give a motivational talk to the team. I say they ran into take a leak.

 

[inzidabest]

what makes Younis Khan continue with Razzaq

 

[samisback]

waqar : i used to hate bowling little mushy if u remember little mushy hate ..bowled very quickly his overs ))

[Raz]

"PCB shouldaaaaa putaaaaa"- Waqar

 

[samisback]

what a clever shot 44444444444444444 guided it to the boundary razzak is giving em freebeeeeeeez

 

[pacman]

Razzaq is letting the pressure off. We need Afridi to come on from that end now.

 

[inzidabest]

crap bowling by Razzaq

 

[inzidabest]

match heading towards a boring boring draw. wickets need to tumble soon

 

[Raz]

168-1

 

[Perth93]

[Raz]

Razzaq still continuing.

 

[jusarrived]

[samisback]

[samisback]

[Slugger]

[inzidabest]

razzaq giving easy boundaries

 

[Slugger]

pitraha hai to salay ko hatao

 

[Raz]

Afridi probably will be brought in now.

 

[inzidabest]

Its too late. razzaq has already done the damage.

 

[samisback]

read btw the lines

 

[inzidabest]

such easy batting by both of them

 

[kablooee87]

Ok kids a cricket lesson for today: When you bowl in excess of 90 mph a short ball is effective in rattling the batsmen as he doesn't have enough time to do anythign except get out of the way. BUT...

If you are bowling at or under 80 mph consisntently short, the batsmen will have enough time to comfortably pull you.

Class dismissed.

 

[samisback]

i wouldnt mind watching sachin n dravid but laxman plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz get him out!!!!!!

175 now india

[inzidabest]

atleast hit something. do something exciting.get dhoni to bat.

 

[Perth93]

has aktar shown any venom or as he gone into his shell? i think he and bhajji are the two guys who hate playing india-pak series.

 

[Raz]

Afridi brought in and a HUGE ROAR from the crowd!!!!!

 

[samisback]

nearlyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy a wicket..................phewwwwwww almostttttttttttttttttttttttt laxman

 

[Pace]

Afridi could make a difference here.

 

[Raz]

Good over from Afridi, 176-1

 

[Perth93]

at the cost of sounding obvious, i'm hoping BW bloods irshad/arafat in karachi. atleast some excitement guaranteed. how has asif jumped over those two? i saw him in oz and couldn't believe he was pakistani.

Asif has bowled well actually so far and has consistently troubled both Laxman and Dravid.

nah was bowling preety decent was right on the money india played him very well..u give bowlers like him n bhaji 1 wicket they will run through u..well with bhajjis case he has to g ofor 150 runs first

 

[aabbasi]

Trivia question: Whats wrong with commentry below ?


End of over 59 (1 run) India 176/1 (trail by 412 runs)
Shahid Afridi 2-0-2-0 - Pavilion End
VVS Laxman 50* (147b 7x4) R Dravid 81* (174b 13x4)

58.6 Shahid Afridi to Laxman, one run, Laxman works trhe last ball of
Afridi's over through square-leg to bring up his half-century!
58.5 Shahid Afridi to Laxman, no run
58.4 Shahid Afridi to Laxman, no run
58.3 Shahid Afridi to Laxman, no run, on the middle stump this time,
slow through the air, defended towards cover
58.2 Shahid Afridi to Laxman, no run, on the pads this time and quite
full, Laxman flicks to midwicket against the turn
58.1 Shahid Afridi to Laxman, no run, flat and quite quick, on the pads,
worked past short-leg

 

[jf1gp_1]

India playing for a draw they cant win so the least we can do is insure that its a draw. Plus Pak bowling doesnt have enough fire power to take wickets on this pitch.

 

[Pace]

Watching these two bat is like Chinese torture!

 

[samisback]

awww close to being cauth down the leg side of dani...kami could quite get there given as 4 runs.......atleast things are happening now

 

[Slugger]

take a wicket dammit!

 

[samisback]

almost a run out........phewwwwwwwwwwwww just missed the stumpss dravid again a lucky escape would have been outttttttt

 

[Perth93]

Asif has bowled well actually so far and has [B]consistently [/B] troubled both Laxman and Dravid.

not watching it on tv so dont know. from your new tearway who partner akhtar, you expect himto go all out, rather than just 'consistency'. that shud be popye's role. does asif look like he'll produce 5ers?

 

[jusarrived]

almost a run out........phewwwwwwwwwwwww just missed the stumpss dravid again a lucky escape would have been outttttttt

420 you imagining things...its high time you go to bed!

 

[samisback]

wow what a delivery by freedi beatssssssssssss dravidd all ends up had no answerrrr

 

[lahori]

surprising to see Afridi getting more turn than Danish

 

[Raz]

Afridi gets one to turn, that fires him and the crowd up!!!

 

[zulfiqar]

afridi on.. bowling pathan's pace

 

[inzidabest]

Pakistan missing Malik here

 

[Perth93]

from what u guys say, asif seems more in a shahid nazir/aqib javed mould.
but then muhammad zahids dont come everyday.

 

[Raz]

He has tried but when your only at medium pace theres only so much you can do, especially on this track.

 

[jf1gp_1]

wow what a delivery by freedi beatssssssssssss dravidd all ends up had no answerrrr

dont understand why u all get so excited. Afridi after all is an international bowler the least he could do is beat the batsman once every 10 overs so he had done it it once.

 

[samisback]

420 you imagining things...its high time you go to bed!

its would have been alot beter if DD had shown the matches live in india..so rather u lot following it on cricinfo could have actually seen whats really happening out there in the middle!

 

[Raz]

Kaneria trying to tempt Dravid to hit on his favoured leg side and against the spin. No luck so far though.

 

[samisback]

dont understand why u all get so excited. Afridi after all is an international bowler the least he could do is beat the batsman once every 10 overs so he had done it it once.

beating rahul dravids bat is a big achivement!!!!!!! not to mention on this pitch!!!

 

[Raz]

When is the 80mph rocket going to come from Afridi?

 

[jusarrived]

u wud know that some ppl work...i happent to be one of them.!

 

[jf1gp_1]

beating rahul dravids bat is a big achivement!!!!!!! not to mention on this pitch!!!

This whole series has been turned into a big joke whats the point of holding such meaning less matches. another 4.

 

[samisback]

freediz keeping laxman guessing throwing in a few off breaks n quicker ones now.........atleast making something happen 4 to end the over 192 now india

 

[inzidabest]

dont understand why u all get so excited. Afridi after all is an international bowler the least he could do is beat the batsman once every 10 overs so he had done it it once.

oh you are back. dont understand why people talk rubbish like Pakistan has gifted the match to India even before it started.

 

[Slugger]

you don't have to watch

 

[samisback]

u wud know that some ppl work...i happent to be one of them.!

i know since its ppl like me who keep ppl like u in employment forgot

dani should come around the wicket....ooo bit of turn now dravid is in some discomfort now!

 

[Perth93]

cant expect freedi to do anything on day 2,3,4. he's becoming a batting allrounder like his best buddy pathan.

 

[jf1gp_1]

oh you are back. dont understand why people talk rubbish like Pakistan has gifted the match to India even before it started.

you know what rather than bashing each others players maybe fans from both the sides should join (for a change) n ask together wht sort of pitches have been prepared for this series.

 

[samisback]

yorker bowled by freed well played.........by dravid

 

[samisback]

44444444444444444 what a shot .......................midonnnnnn

 

[Slugger]

cant expect freedi to do anything on day 2,3,4. he's becoming a batting allrounder like his best buddy pathan.

he's becoming a batting allrounder because he hasn't taken a wicket in the last half an hour?

make that just 4.4 overs

 

[badxhah]

dravid has been on feild for morre than 32 hrs .. in both test man ,,,
Wow wat stamina

 

[inzidabest]

[Perth93]
