Regardless of whoever ends up winning this game, its been a treat to watch.

lets keep our hopes from all the team whoever comes in to bat as we need everyone to chip in and InshahAllah lets hope for that!

Aamer and Ajmal round 2?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I wanted to say that lets hope the remaining guys can chip in with some decent runs so we can acheive this target - InshahAllah

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Aamer and Ajmal round 2?

You never know eh?! :aamir

 

[saj001]

Aamer and Ajmal round 2?

We won't need them inshAllah

15 minutes after the lunch are crucial, we have to make sure we dont lose any wicket

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Another 20 mins to go

 

[insaaniyat]

Perfect title for Bakra Eid

 

[Poison]

Thing is its only another 198 runs to get. If these two can somehow hold out until drinks, maybe scraping off another 40 or so runs, the match will tip back in our favour.

It'll get really exciting if we need say 120 runs in the last session to win it, five wickets in hand

 

[insaaniyat]

We won't need them inshAllah

15 minutes after the lunch are crucial, we have to make sure we dont lose any wicket

We won't

 

[saj001]

Perfect title for Bakra Eid

lets hope our ballay baaz bhi apna hissa dalay aur nz kai bowlers ko zibbah karay

 

[Deewana Mastana]

They need to come out with some planning as Umar Akmal has looked content and not going for any expansive shots first up after lunch as we saw what happened in the 1st session loosing 3 quick wickets. So the first 30 to 45 mins after lunch is crucial for these 2 at the crease to look out for! Partnerships are the key as the more we can get those going the more chances we'll have to get close and InshahAllah acheive this target!

 

[insaaniyat]

lets hope our ballay baaz bhi apna hissa dalay aur nz kai bowlers ko zibbah karay

The way these two are playing, signs are good, Insha Allah

I've given my tele some needed rest!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

They're back in Dunedin!

 

[saj001]

Come on Moyo and Umar

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Kiwis making their way out

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Bond will start proceedings after lunch for NZ

Moyo to take strike

 

[12thMan]

the most important 3.4 over spell coming. Pakistan needs 198 to win

 

[saj001]

Moyo missed out on that one

 

[Oxy]

I think we are playing for the draw - I am sure thats the plan

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Moyo missed out on that one

Yeah!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Bond came a bit wide of the crease on that occasion

 

[insaaniyat]

I think we are playing for the draw - I am sure thats the plan

It's ok. May not be a bad idea. If wicket hold up, we can shoot for the win in the last hour

 

[Poison]

I think we are playing for the draw - I am sure thats the plan

I think if we go at our current rate, we'll need 80 or so off the last 20. So I doubt they'll declare the game over early if we only need 4 an over.

 

[saj001]

I think we are playing for the draw - I am sure thats the plan

I will take that

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I think we are playing for the draw - I am sure thats the plan

Apparently thats what Moyo seemed to have said after just 2 days in the game already!

 

[Poison]

Just have to keep wickets intact - the track is still good, its just keeping low occasionally.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

O'Brien from the other end to Umar Akmal

1st ball kept a bit low

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Big shout by O'Brien looked by the first look to be going down legside

And yes it is missing legstump on replays

 

[Seen Sheen]

:umarakmal missed out on a leg stump half volleys and an appeal by Nzers

 

[Poison]

Okay maybe more than just the 'odd' ball is keeping low.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Good stroke straight to the fielder

 

[Oxy]

So I doubt they'll declare the game over early .

What if Moyo is 87*

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Loose shot by U.Akmal

Slashed too hard there

 

[Poison]

This is quite an oustanding battle.

 

[Seen Sheen]

loose drive by Akmal jr

 

[insaaniyat]

Appeal sounds so convincing. However they wouldn't challenge. Lol.

 

[12thMan]

Well Pakistan has to play till 150 runs and losing 0 or 1 wicket only (only Malik and Kamran after these). Even then with collapses like Waqar mentioned today 90 something needed in SL and 8 wickets in hand and Pakistan lost by 50 runs I will not be comfortable but atleast at that time they can say we are chasing or not

 

[saj001]

ball is keeping well low

 

[Oxy]

Has anyone had an accident - slip or trip that wasnt your fault?

Its always my fault lady

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Moyo sent back and rightfully too by Akmal Junior

No risky singles pls and not on a misfield

 

[insaaniyat]

Omar needs to be more careful. What I am worried about is that he is not playing his natural inning, and that is what frustrating him

 

[OZGOD]

I think Pakistan are in good shape actually. MoYo knows how to graft an innings and Umar Akmal showed that he has the composure to keep MoYo company. The run rate is hardly excessive. The key will be to get them to stay there till tea. If they're there till tea Pakistan will win.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Has anyone had an accident - slip or trip that wasnt your fault?

Its always my fault lady

Call her now for a 100% compensation! Every penny you get will come to you!

 

[Poison]

Omar needs to be more careful. What I am worried about is that he is not playing his natural inning, and that is what frustrating him

Test of character.

 

[Seen Sheen]

that wasnt too far away from Fulton..

 

[ali_ed2006]

kind of a nervous start from Umar Akmal..

 

[insaaniyat]

Test of character.

This where Omar needs to shine

 

[Poison]

kind of a nervous start from Umar Akmal..

He's been there for about 50 balls mate.

 

[ali_ed2006]

4 for Umar.

 

[Seen Sheen]

first by :umarakmal

 

[saj001]

First 4 for omar , hope that will calm him down

 

[Oxy]

oi hoye hoye

I meant

4 - Umar

 

[12thMan]

O'Brian zindabad

 

[insaaniyat]

good shot

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Good shot by Umar Akmal for 4

 

[ali_ed2006]

He's been there for about 50 balls mate.

I'm talking about in this session though..had a few misses...

or maybe it's just me that's getting nervous!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Once again both batsman show the opposition hints of taking a non existent single and them having a shy at the stumps with a possible risk of a run out! Shambolic I dont see it with any other team doing such silly stuff after 2 balls or so!

 

[Seen Sheen]

Great delivery from abay O'Brien

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Thats gone through and its a 4

 

[Oxy]

edged - and 4 to 3rd man

that was close...

 

[Poison]

Umar playing naturally, he's not letting these half volleys go.

 

[saj001]

Lucky 4

 

[12thMan]

Another four and O'Brian Paindabad

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Pak 63-3 after 30 overs
