[cricket_fan_1]

ali

phantom gets his wicket

 

[Pakistani93]

YK the new batsman

 

[Strike!]

That was looking likely.

 

[Theo_14]

Azhar Ali gone - ouch.

 

[Decipher]

lol ... typical pak out ... frustration ... unable to improvise,,, dont know what do in pressure ... unable to understand the concept of rotating the strike ..... just wait for the bad ball to hit a four and thats about it .... thats pakistani batting for u

 

[Watsupdoc]

Azhar goes in the usual fashion...

 

[ZAK]

YK is the new man in.

 

[cricket_fan_1]

younus khan walks in...grind it out the way you are famous for khan saab

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Should have been left alone.

 

[nads_rocks]

Younis will stop the scoreboard from ticking putting pressure on Taufeeq, this is not going to look good...

 

[RAZZAQ-FAN]

Has anyone noticed the distanct contrast in the new zealand comms when the Nz batsmen were hitting boundaries compared to when we were? They're absolutely lifeless....and now Azhar gets out he shouting again.

 

[Decipher]

YK the hesitant starter.. lets hope he crosses 20 without losing his wicket

 

[Inswinger]

Younis Khan is out of form so the first few overs will be difficult.

 

[cricfan967]

Hah! How was that not given! LOL!

 

[GOAT]

Younis will stop the scoreboard from ticking putting pressure on Taufeeq, this is not going to look good...

Are you a moron or something? One of the elite few in Pakistan cricket to average 50 in Test cricket, this isn't one day cricket where "slowing down" = death.

 

[PakCrikNeedsFixin]

I think hes nicked it

 

[Seen Sheen]

Phew!!YK survives..

 

[cricfan967]

I heard the noise there

 

[Pakistani93]

Big appeal but not given

 

[KingKhanWC]

Oooh. Sounded like an edge from 10,000 miles away.

 

[ZAK]

Loud appeal but the umpire says Not Out.

 

[Watsupdoc]

I think that was out...

 

[cricfan967]

) i hope he knicked it
would surely make up for what happened in the NZ innings .. twice

 

[Inswinger]

Has anyone noticed the distanct contrast in the new zealand comms when the Nz batsmen were hitting boundaries compared to when we were? They're absolutely lifeless....and now Azhar gets out he shouting again.

Not all commies are negative nellies like Rameez Raja. They don't hide the fact that they are rooting for their home team.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Off the mark with a streaky boundary...

 

[GOAT]

lol, 1-1 howlers per team now.

 

[Pakistani93]

Four for YK

 

[cricfan967]

wow, brilliant decision!

 

[Inswinger]

Still don't want UDRS?

 

[Seen Sheen]

Clearly missed the outside esge..cricfan thats why it wasnt given out...

 

[KingKhanWC]

Good decison, bat hit pad not ball.

 

[PakCrikNeedsFixin]

Well done to the umpire! if we can criticize then we can praise too. Sounded like a nick

 

[cricfan967]

great umpiring,

 

[Pakistani93]

Great decsion by the umpire

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

44444444 game on

 

[cricket_fan_1]

 

[Pakistani93]

Still don't want UDRS?

lol, 1-1 howlers per team now.

It wasn't out so a great call by Harper

 

[Watsupdoc]

I was wrong credit to the umpire for getting that right.

 

[Inswinger]

lol, 1-1 howlers per team now.

Massive gap between bat and ball.

 

[cricfan967]

Clearly missed the outside esge..cricfan thats why it wasnt given out...

wasn't clear at all, looked out at normal speed

 

[ZAK]

1 to Umar.

 

[WhiteDudeFromTrinidad]

NZ 3.80

PAK 2.02

Draw 4.00

 

[Seen Sheen]

Yk v vettori will be one hell of a battle..

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

taufeeq should go after vettori

 

[Decipher]

Why did he play at that?

.

Poor coaching.

 

[KingKhanWC]

younis v vettori ,what a battle.

 

[Inswinger]

I think YK would have walked if he nicked it.

 

[nads_rocks]

Are you a moron or something? One of the elite few in Pakistan cricket to average 50 in Test cricket, this isn't one day cricket where "slowing down" = death.

I aint a moron, i'm a fan of Younis Khan but what I meant was Younis Khan takes his time to get going and that would put Taufeeq under pressure coz he's looking good and trying to keep the scoreboard ticking, which could result in losing a wicket, Younis Khan by far is Pakistan's best batsman by a mile and I do hope he scores big here.

If you don't like my comment then fine but u got no right calling me a moron, as far as I checked this is a thread to place your own opinions, views and comments.

 

[Inswinger]

wasn't clear at all, looked out

There was a significant gap between bat and ball.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

yk is key here

 

[ZAK]

77/2.

 

[Seen Sheen]

wasn't clear at all, looked out

Didnt look out to me..
Coz I believe in YK...

 

[Uzi]

I was expecting Harper to put his finger up because he is accustomed to making howlers.

 

[RAZZAQ-FAN]

Clearly missed the outside esge..cricfan thats why it wasnt given out...

Hardly "clearly out" tbh...a slight exaggeration on ur part?

 

[JibranAnsari]

will pakistan be able to get any lead , i would say 5 runs if we push hard?

 

[GOAT]

Massive gap between bat and ball.

Sorry guys, following the PP commentary at the moment

Glad to know that if Younis makes a substantial score there was no luck (as of now).

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

we cant afford to lose another wicket here

 

[ace4rmspace]

Good decision by the umpire. I would love to see a Younis ton today. Havent seen one of those in a while! *kicks away the jinxing gremlins*

 

[Looney]

just came back and saw azhar is gone

what happened ?

 

[cricfan967]

There was a significant gap between bat and ball.

yeah I saw that in the slow motion replay
great umpiring

 

[cricket_fan_1]

the coverage quality is very poor...

 

[Inswinger]

just came back and saw azhar is gone

what happened ?

He dangled his bat at one that was miles away from his off-stump....

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

nz putting the brakes on

 

[cricfan967]

just came back and saw azhar is gone

what happened ?

He got out to a good ball that moved away but should've left it really

 

[cricket_fan_1]

will pakistan be able to get any lead , i would say 5 runs if we push hard?

150+ is what i would say...any bets ??

 

[JibranAnsari]

just came back and saw azhar is gone

what happened ?

he got out , lame shot

 

[ace4rmspace]

Teetoo getting a tad nervous so close to his 50.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

just came back and saw azhar is gone

what happened ?

Nicked one he shouldn't.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Taufeeq losing concentration..

 

[GOAT]

This is Test cricket, Taufeeq has been doing just fine with Azhar as his partner at the other end so why wouldn't he with Younis? Your comment was moronic, this isn't an LOI or a chase, what the hell would S/R have to do with anything?

 

[ZAK]

No ball.

 

[cricfan967]

did he just bowl that no ball?
thats the second time they showed him bowling no balls and it not being called

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Taufeeq needs to be patient.

 

[Inswinger]

Asking for and posting links to streams is prohibited.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

No ball called.

 

[Uzi]

Taufeeq needs to make this innings count and not throw it away.

 

[ZAK]

78/2.

 

[ZAK]

 

[Decipher]

nz putting the brakes on

which will promptly trigger the traditional pakistani batting collapse.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Asking for and posting links to streams is prohibited.

oh okay, didnt know
