If Bond can bowl 150k at the age of 33-34, why can't Shoaib?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

whats :younis doing!!!!!!he is sharing the weaknesses of our batsmen with the kiwis............issed:

Anyone who has some cricketing sense will know that will strrugle against swinging ball.

No big deal in that.

 

[Cover Drive]

Amazing shot!!!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

If Bond can bowl 150k at the age of 33-34, why can't Shoaib?

Because Bond doesn't need liposuction to get fit.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Lovely timing by

 

[Khabri420]

What a classy shot! Lazy elegance

 

[mmkextreme_1]

I cannot believe the amount negativity coming from the NZL commentators for the Pakistan batsmen!

pacquiao and hatton.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Any Batsman will struggle against a swinging ball.

Thats bleeding obvious. Doesn't matter who you are.

Still much less negative than Ramiz for Pakistani batsmen!

[mindless slogging]

Yousuf doesn't seem to be in the best of nick. Good 4 but alot of misses/beating the edge.

 

[12thMan]

Pak 69-2 - trail by 360

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Another punch of the backfoot.

Couple more to

shoaib did get 150 in the ipl but idk about the australia series in Dubai..

Its the extra bounce I think. Every player will struggle first up in the southern hemisphere.

 

[Juggernaut]

Amir and Umar Akmal having a chat.

The two big hopes of Pakistan cricket.

Probably agreeing how poor Imran Farhat is.

O bhai....Because of his prodigious movements,fawadee is a big candidate of LBW's,more than any left hander...I remember in the sri lanka tour ,whenever their pacers got a hint of in movement,he looked veryyy uncomfortable..so :younis should be careful in the future......

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Bond generating good pace here 147 km/hr

 

[mindless slogging]

Its the extra bounce I think. Every player will struggle first up in the southern hemisphere.

I just think that 2 year gap has affected him big time. He may never get that form back.

 

[Poison]

Yousuf opening up now

 

[Seen Sheen]

Still much less negative than Ramiz for Pakistani batsmen!

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[Seen Sheen]

showing his class

 

[Khabri420]

Great shot from Effortless.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

this is snail-pace. the kiwis were scoring briskly, so wickets didn't look that bad. a wicket here and we're in the mire

well atleast the boy doesn't have the concentration level of a squirrel like Malik, Butt, Nazir, Farhat

 

[coy0607]

yousuf has started picking it up now that he is set......i think alam should start looking for some runs too, before vettori comes on and dries up everything

 

[12thMan]

What a catch by Bond. ct & b. MoYo out
Pak 74-3

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[ali_ed2006]

Yousuf gone. We're screwed.

 

[insaaniyat]

what a catch

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Wonderful catch by Bond

 

[saadjhussain]

yusuf gone!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Now we are in trouble.

 

[Juggernaut]

Can't do anything about that.

Great catch.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Noooooo!!!

Yousuf let's us down again when we need him most.

 

[Poison]

Unlucky Moyo

Umar Akmal needs to control himself now.

 

[slix10]

And now everyone panic!

 

[amar1212]

ohh we r done??....

 

[insaaniyat]

This was just a great catch, a treat to watch

 

[Afridi_Fan]

:umar akaml walks in

 

[mindless slogging]

We're falling like flies on a pancake.

 

[azfar wali]

Noooooo!!!

Yousuf let's us down again when we need him most.

Yousaf didn't let us down it was a great catch , what was he supposed to do?

 

[Fawad_Bhai]

Akmal jr. into the crease

 

[insaaniyat]

OA should score century

 

[amar1212]

best day of commentators' lives.

 

[Juggernaut]

I'm tempted to watch Umar Akmal and Fawad Alam bat but we're in deep **** and I need some sleep.

 

[saadjhussain]

umar akmal will struggle against bond's pace, malik should have come in

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Noooooo!!!

Yousuf let's us down again when we need him most.

Did you watch the catch?

Whats fault in that?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[Cover Drive]

iQuit watching the match so far

 

[Poison]

LOL Umar Akmal flashes hard at the first ball and middles it :umarakmal

 

[saeed-sohail]

what I like about fawad is that he bats to his strength and is keeping the score board moving and he is on 30 before you even notice him. On the other hand players like farhat butt or malik will huff and puff few fours but end result will be a 30/40 and that on a good day.

 

[amar1212]

woohh akmal bhaji this is test cricket not t20

 

[saadjhussain]

what a shot by akmal first ball

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Thats how you treat your 1st ball in Test match

 

[insaaniyat]

umar akmal will struggle against bond's pace, malik should have come in

Malik wouldn't last against any of the NZ bowlers

 

[Juggernaut]

One final rallying call before I'm off lads:

COME ON UMAR AND FAWAD !!!

BEAT THESE KIWIS TO THE GROUND!!!

 

[Poison]

Oh noes Vettori.

 

[offcutter]

this is what good fielding does for you, makes wickets out of nothing instead of loses wickets produced from good bowling!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Oh Ho

Dan the man comes on.

 

[shaaan]

great catch....that could be the difference in the match...we dropped 4 catches and Newzealand take a great catch...Lets hope for the best for Pakistan

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Still 152 needed

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Jharoo shot by

 

[Khabri420]

Oh Ho

Dan the man comes on.

Send him to the moon :umarakmal

 

[slix10]

Pakistan trail by 350 runs.

 

[saadjhussain]

vettori really had akmal struggling in in the ODI's, hopefully he'll do well today

 

[12thMan]

reaction time for Bond in his follow through and ball at his feet - 0.66 seconds. No one will call that a drop if catch was not taken but perhaps a hard chance or great try

 

[Seen Sheen]

well atleast the boy doesn't have the concentration level of a squirrel like Malik, Butt, Nazir, Farhat

FAWAD>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Fawad>>>>>>>>>>>Fawad>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Malik,Misbah

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Great catch but should have kept the ball down. Played it too early. Look at pointing against rampaul- great spell but pointing survived and looks like he will get a 100.

Yousuf survived the best balls but then played a loose stroke.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

79/3

 

[amar1212]

hahah he just said " damn..another Pakistani exposing all 3 stumps" lmao

 

[ali_ed2006]

79/4

fawad gone.
