Pakistan v New Zealand | 1st Test | Nov 9-13, 2014 | Abu Dhabi | Day 2

[Aman]

Going to watch walking dead.

I'm not going into 'hiding', I just have better things to do than watch paint dry.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Misbah should go after every ball and try to break his 56 ball 100 record

 

[JibranAnsari]

LOL misbahs same approach..


tuk tuks and bang

 

[akamaka]

I really want to see NZ bat. Get another 140 in quick time and lets see bowlers in action :shah

 

[akamaka]

omg ) nzl doing a siddle ) what a sitter

 

[Ahson8]

Misbah survives. Nearly threw it away.

 

[hussain.r97]

Massive mis-communication there
Next ball, great stop from Bazz!

 

[Random Aussie]

Good to NZ were better prepared than us, it is obvious no?

 

[rayfder]

Showing statistics, highest averages in tests won, first Don Bradman ave. 130, 2nd Inzimam ave. 78. Sangakkara at no.4, Younis Khan at no.5, Steve Waugh at no.7. Platers from all test nations there apart from India. No Indian batsman there telling the reality of Indian players,who would be remembered as great Indian hype. Unsung heroes like now deceased Mascarenhas and others responsible for creating this hype worth millions of dollars.

 

[Sam18696]

WTH is happening )

 

[Aman]

3 dropped catches

 

[Aman]

Good to NZ were better prepared than us, it is obvious no?

Would have liked to have played an ODI series before the Tests.

 

[akamaka]

wth ) fixed )

 

[Ahson8]

Another life for Misbah )

 

[hussain.r97]

Oh my god That was a dolly. Have Pakistan and NZ swapped fielding ability? NZ are meant to be one of the best fielding sides in the world

 

[Sam18696]

Why is Misbah slogging?
Misbah stahp

 

[Fastandfurious]

Rofl Misbah dropped.

 

[rayfder]

Bazid Khan and his commentary reminds me of MGM studio's famous creation droopy the dog.

 

[akamaka]

Welcome to UAE boys )

 

[Fastandfurious]

#NZbestfieldingside [MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION]

 

[Aman]

1 bad day in the field doesn't undo years of being the best fielding side.

 

[JibranAnsari]

How lucky is misbah.. cant reach sr 50 without getting a life

 

[Ahson8]

And after that back to back fours )

 

[Space Cat]

Is chris cairns the new fielding coach?

 

[imshally81]

Two Fours in a Row.....

 

[imshally81]

Last 10 overs : 44/0 RR 4.40

 

[Space Cat]

As if its not hard enough for Sodhi his fielders will be ruining his confidence further.

 

[Sam18696]

Lol Neesham's reaction

 

[JibranAnsari]

Misbah trying hard to prove that he is not a tuk tuk.

But he is.

 

[Aman]

Craig is such a liability.

 

[rayfder]

Awful cricket by New Zealand, dropping tuk-tuk, nz has sent some rowdy schoolkids to UAE, who r waiting for declaration to end their misery on the field.

Still NZ knows better keep tuk-tuk on the crease as others Asad Shafiq, Sarfraz will make them look more miserable.

 

[Space Cat]

Pitch turning a bit more now.

 

[hussain.r97]

Craig is such a liability.

Wagner may have been a better option with his reverse swing. The only problem is all types of movement are negated here due to the really low bounce.

 

[Aman]

Maybe a tactic to avoid Sarfraz?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

YK averaging more than Tendu now. Can't believe no one here brought that up

 

[Aman]

Pitch turning a bit more now.

We're doomed.

 

[Aman]

YK averaging more than Tendu now. Can't believe no one here brought that up

Because it's pointless, there's a massive gulf between the two.

 

[akamaka]

even pakistan would've caught one of those lol

 

[Fastandfurious]

YK averaging more than Tendu now. Can't believe no one here brought that up

YK > Tendu

 

[JibranAnsari]

Misbah is taking help of voodoo

 

[Aman]

YK > Tendu

YK > Bradman

 

[JibranAnsari]

Nothing going nz way.

 

[Fastandfurious]

YK > Bradman

Bradman is crap, feasted on a weak England team.

 

[Space Cat]

The positive about having Sodhi and Craig in the side is it makes out batting line up very deep. Capable batsman right down to 10 and Boult can hit a few.

 

[Mamoo_cricket]

1 bad day in the field doesn't undo years of being the best fielding side.

similarly one worst test series won't make kiwis a bad test team. [MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION] #worst-excuses

 

[Space Cat]

Maybe craig was picked as a batsman because im not seeing his worth as a bowler.

 

[Juansar_07]

50 .Not a bad SR either.

 

[JibranAnsari]

has better sr than without taking any risk.

 

[Aman]

Get a slip in for Ish.

 

[Aman]

3 wickets so far - 2 beauties and 1 bad shot.

 

[Mamoo_cricket]

YK averaging more than Tendu now. Can't believe no one here brought that up

why Pak fans always use Tendu as a yard stick to judge quality of their batsman, this only show how great the Man himself is. and also show how much you adore Tendu, and as for as Yk being better than Tendu, that can only happen in a Pak fan dreams.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Another ugly hoik.

 

[Random Aussie]

Hobbits copping a flogging here, which is nice to watch.

 

[Yatoo]

[JibranAnsari]

Great batting by younis.

 

[akamaka]

fun cricket time?

 

[JibranAnsari]

Lol hobbits poms and crims

 

[JibranAnsari]

Great shot.

 

[MarkCooper]

Whitewash is on

 

[JibranAnsari]

Great delivery

 

[Aman]

What a ripper by Sodhi

Definite turn now

Where was this yesterday....................

[Strike Rate]

And some genius here were laughing at me when i said Younus can score faster if needed. The guy is already scoring with a ODI strike rate

 

[Asif321]

Pakistan make excellent fielding sides look ordinary .

[NZcricketfan]

Considering Lou Vincent is banned for life and Chris Cairns is facing charges I think it is time to bring
out the match fixing excuse

 

[Mamoo_cricket]

YK The ultimate HTB feasting on nobodies, he is master at this have to accept,

 

[hussain.r97]

NZ will be a little worried about Yasir Shah looking at Sodhi's bowling.

[Mamoon]

Maxwell still sore. Ouch.

 

[Aman]

Maxwell still seems sour, either that or he's trolling

 

[Aman]

Ish has improved remarkably since he last played a Test.

 

[Fastandfurious]

If you guys are bored, watch this. Some amazing shots from Ramiz and Qasim against genuine pace.

 

[Aman]

I'd rather see McCullum bowl than Craig.

#boom #owned

 

[hussain.r97]

Century for Craig...

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Now Misbah averaging 50 in Test cricket. Congrats!

 

[Mamoo_cricket]

[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] #the ultimate cricket guru "what you think when and at what score Pak should declare to end the misery of hobbits? Atleast for the time being."

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Misbah now averages 50 in test cricket..congrats to him

 

[Mamoon]

Bat for next 20 overs and get 570 on the board, giving NZ 11 overs to bat today or we could keep it to 550 and give them around 15 overs.

The target should be to get 1/2 wickets today which will really put pressure on NZ.
