ok here comes the greatest WK batsmen of all time....or should we call him the greatest showman of all time/
 
Now Yuvraj out! Is this game on! India feeling the heat. With Yuvi gone this is great. If we can get Karthik ,then we take their option to score quick runs away.

An alarming observation: Pakistan has bowled 18 overs in 1:32:00. Extremely slow runrate, which will come back to bite us in the final session.

If Pakistan gets going, and is on the track, India will also slow down the overrate.

There's not enough light in the evening to keep the game until 90 overs (or 87, with the change of innings) have been bowled.

The light in Bangalore has been fine. There wont be any problem getting the full overs in.
 
Yuv gone ... a few more quick wickets and we're almost right back into this.
 
lol Sami finally gets a decision going his way, even though this time it was wrongly given out.
 
ok bring back arafat to take care of these two like he did in the first innings
 
need to get these last 5 wickets in the next 10 overs or so.
 
A good 30 minutes from Pakistan here....and we could be in for some drama.

...and Rameez comes on. ****.
 
Yuvi thiefed out - at least some people acknowledged it :P
 
but again yuvi is not like majid khan to walk if he is out. maybe he was trying to bluff umpire by not looking at him like gamhbir in first inning when he was caught behind
 
my idiot room mate posted that. :))

amazing that Sami has taken 2 wickets. If he gets another couple his average might even go below 50

Do you make a profession out of whining?
 
BAH I wish Faisal wasn't wearing a helmet. We could have a wicket AND be rid of Faisal. :P
 
is arafat injured .. he hasn't bowled a single over today ?

good one
 
55.6 Danish Kaneria to Karthik, no run, full and on the pads, Karthik flicks to the on side, the ball goes off the short-leg fielder's helmet to the off side. It's caught but obviously that can't be given as it's gone off the fielder's helmet.

Huh? A hit that richochets off the helmet, and is caught by another fielder, is not out?
 
Classical wristy shot by Laxman for four ! The outfield is very slow ... The ball was timed almost perfectly but struggled to cross the fence.
 
Pitch playing into picture now...
Bat for half an hour more and lets put pak into bat then...and make it 2-0..
 
Younis Khan must be thinking that had he scored a scorching double hundred, Pakistanis would have been in tremendous position on the last day...Hopefully a quick 100 is coming from him this evening...
 
The replays of Yuvraj's dismissal suggest that the the sound that prompted the umpire to give him out was of the bat hitting his boot. The snickometer shows a very thick deviation and not a fine disturbance that is witnessed when the ball takes a edge. So it was not a very good decision by umpire Rudi Koertzen to give Yuvraj out. A bad birthday gift I would say!!!


Wrong Decision...but who cares now... :27:
 
Does Shoaib have any steam left...Otherwise try Arafat...

Bring Arafat ... he did very well against right-handers. Let's see what he can do now. So far, in this game, he's had a midas' touch, both with the ball and with the bat.

Give him 2-3 overs before lunch.
 
6 and then a 4 from the out of form Karthik ... if that is not enough proof that Kaneria needs to be dropped I donno what is.
 
Karthik wants to do some wicketkeeping this evening...

He has totally bamboozled Kaneria...
 
What the heck is wrong with Kaneria?! Getting smacked all over the park by an out-of-form batsman is just sad
 
Mohammad Sami to Laxman, 1 leg bye, short of a driving length and outside the off, left well alone to the keeper
 
WE need to bring Shoaib to clean these guys up!
 
Sami's pitch map looks more like a scatter plot with a perfect linear relationship than a grouping.

AK has sufficient runs to declare by lunch now, thanks to Karthik.

He definitely wont declare now. We have to somehow get 5 wickets as quickly as possible and then go into ODI mode while batting

Really: Did he fall down appealing?

no no, thats a kaneria usual. this is special coz he is getting hit by an out of form batsman without any talent on a slow pitch, just after 3 wickets have fallen in quick succession. You need speical talent as a bowler to do that
 
yunus khan baara baj kye kia
why is he persisting with dk making kartick superstar
 
Kaneria doing his best to make sure this is his last test match for pakistan in sometime..
 
kaneria is bowling like a moron
