Pakistan V New Zealand | 1st Test | 08/01/11 | Hamilton | Day 3 | Session 2

[*sallu*]

Pathetic bowling

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Time for Rehman to have a go soon

 

[Sledger]

Lead is melting away.

 

[JibranAnsari]

riaz will be given a ball which wont move a bit

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

seriously we are missig amir and asif

 

[asadee]

missing Charsi here

 

[*sallu*]

you meant to say even throw downs are harder

honest mistake

 

[AZ]

somebody tell Tanvir that Christmas season was over 2 weeks ago.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Time to give Wahab a crack.

 

[Sledger]

Anothe cut but just one. Timed very well though. )

 

[Gollum]

At Tanvir's speed there is very little room for error....he needs to maintain on his offstump channel

 

[kingusama92]

How many short and wide deliveries can one bowl?!

 

[*sallu*]

McCullum set for a big one

 

[IAJ]

Get him out of attack!

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

amir and asif are in totally differant class to gulla and tanno

 

[Uzi]

The worst FAST bowler to play for Pakistan Tanveer Ahmed

Only thing is he isn't fast.

More Kumble pace.

 

[ZAK]

32/0.

 

[Torpedo]

Rana Naveed should help Tanvir get a hair transplant.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

puts it in the slot for Macintosh to drive... luckily str8 to fielder

 

[1137moiz]

you shouldnt say allah miyan.

why not? Is it another of those arbitrary Desi rules that have no backing?

 

[Sledger]

People talking about pace should remember that the genius selectors have another Tanvir as a reserve. He bowls at the same speeds.

 

[*sallu*]

Is he doing this purposely?

Are Pakistan hoping for a repeat of the first innings? If so, this is very defensive tactics

I refuse to acknowledge a guy bowling this pace can bowl short and wide this many times in a row by mistake

 

[Mujtaba_Saeed]

no drop pls

 

[qaiser]

oh yeah, bcci does everything...

i know you would agree

 

[Free Hit]

amir and asif are in totally differant class to gulla and tanno

isit. yet pakistan have done so well without the two

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Time to give Wahab a crack.

You trying to pull a Ramiz?

 

[pakbl10]

This is disappointing. Both of the openers should have been out.

 

[UP]

Tanvir phast bowler

 

[Hamxa89]

We can't harp about Harper anymore. The guy gave his wicket and we didn't take it. Stupid captain

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Tanvir just touched 129 kmh must be drained now.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

i was thinking we would get a few wickets before tea time but...no

 

[*sallu*]

Why has his pace dropped so much, he was bowling late 130s against RSA, part of the reason why he troubled the batsmen there

If anything, it was hotter there, so it would have been more difficult to continue bowling fast speeds

 

[osee_bhai]

pretty sure tanvir will get a rest

 

[Sledger]

You need to pitch a bit fuller than normal on his wicket. Once the ball bounces, the pace completelydies. Tanvir's short bowling will be put away by tailenders.

 

[kingusama92]

Is he doing this purposely?

I refuse to acknowledge a guy bowling this pace can bowl short and wide this many times in a row by mistake

Come on now. His bowling is entertaining.

121 KPH is the record. I love following his speeds. Keeps me interested.

 

[nads_rocks]

amir and asif are in totally differant class to gulla and tanno

Amir and Asif would have ripped through New Zealand in no time, Gul is no opening or new ball bowler, without them 2 we are going to struggle and are struggling for a long time to come yet...

 

[Looney]

By the way , where is cricket_fan_1 ? I thought he would be here to claim his kabab

 

[iRfaN_LA]

You trying to pull a Ramiz?

) Don't take me wrong bro, crack can have several meanings.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

why not? Is it another of those arbitrary Desi rules that have no backing?

iv heard from the scholars/

 

[kingusama92]

Might be carrying an injury.

His pace has dropped too much despite bowling in similar conditions to UAE.

 

[Gollum]

it will be advantage NZ if they are able to overcome the lead with 0 down or 1 down......

 

[Torpedo]

The match is slipping away.

 

[Sledger]

Excellent ball by Gul. It's been driven for a single but that's he length for this wicket.

 

[*sallu*]

Time for Wahab

 

[osee_bhai]

Stop hating on his pace! pitch is really slow and pace isn't everything.

 

[Decipher]

exactly ,,,, our defensive batsmen look retard on this kinda pitch .... we MUST have a couple of ATTACKING batsmen but afsoos ....

 

[*sallu*]

Was that fielded by Ajmal?

edti: my bad, was mibah

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

this is just stupid. Im of to bed.

 

[Sledger]

Batting last will be tough. Some uneven bounce now. Some balls dying to the keeper, others bouncing a lot.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

) ) )

He broke his record!!! 121 KPH!!!

I wonder whats his slower ball?

 

[kingusama92]

Stop hating on his pace! pitch is really slow and pace isn't everything.

I guess line and length isn't everything, as well?

Hard to defend Tanvir after that last over. Slow and wayward.

 

[1137moiz]

iv heard from the scholars/

which scholars and on what basis

 

[Gollum]

Stop hating on his pace! pitch is really slow and pace isn't everything.

i agree with you, but Tanvir's last over was **** poor.....

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

The match is slipping away.

do you have a brain

 

[talha3]

Don't worry guys, the Mcmillan-meter says it will be 50-1 and 100-3.

 

[UP]

The match is slipping away.

Easy bhai easy

 

[*sallu*]

Those saying Tanvir is bowling slow because pitch is slow, its rubbish

Pace is measured from the bowlers hand before the ball bounces so the pace of the pitch has nothing to do with it

 

[Sledger]

Slip field is all wrong! Hafeez and Taufeeq?! down the ground?

 

[Looney]

I wonder whats his slower ball?

all of them !

 

[AZ]

gotta feel for Gully, bowling a good spell, creates the chance on a lifeless wicket, only to see his first slipper having a nap.

 

[Sledger]

33/0 and tea.

 

[ZAK]

Tea. 33/0.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Good yorker.


Tea

 

[*sallu*]

Poor session from Pakistan all around

Poor fielding, poor bowling and poor umpiring

 

[UP]

Chai ka waqt.

 

[Desi]

gf made me go to the grocery store with her. can someone summarize the NZ innings so far please.

 

[Sledger]

Should have taken a wicket, maybe two.

 

[Gollum]

Tea time....NZ slowly creeping up in the game

 

[Slickman]

Really should have made 500 in our innings pitch was perfect but being honest its two poor batting line up who just aren't ruthless enough to take advantage of the situation!

 

[Sledger]

Need to have them 3-4 down by the end of the day.

 

[osee_bhai]

i agree with you, but Tanvir's last over was **** poor.....

No doubt, but it was one over. He's playing his second match and has gotten 10 wickets, people need to stop flipping out.

 

[Rizie]

Would love to see McIntosh and Misbah bat together

 

[Torpedo]

Good strike rate from macintosh.

 

[Sledger]

Need McCullum asap. Mcintosh is slow as and Rehman can tie down Guptill. McCullum will really change this game quickly. Ryder will be the other dangerman, looked in good form in the first innings as well.

 

[nads_rocks]

Really should have made 500 in our innings pitch was perfect but being honest its two poor batting line up who just aren't ruthless enough to take advantage of the situation!

I cnt remember the last time we made anything above 450 let alone 500, should have made 450 though atleast.

 

[Torpedo]

do you have a brain

yes i do.

 

[cricfan4ever]

gotta feel for Gully, bowling a good spell, creates the chance on a lifeless wicket, only to see his first slipper having a nap.

and than some people point out that he avgd. 43 in 2010

 

[emclub]

Arafat would bowl way faster than Tanveer Aunty
