Pakistan v New Zealand | 1st Test | Nov 9-13, 2014 | Abu Dhabi | Day 3

[Yatoo]

Come on. Gift two more wickets.

 

[Justcrazy]

Yasir is still wicketless.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

frustrating .......

 

[JaDed]

Why isn't Rahat bowling ?

Is he a spin bowler that he should keep bowling?

 

[Yatoo]

How many batsmen have they plated.
Urggghhhhhh

 

[JaDed]

NZ look better than Aus in frustrating Pak for sure.

 

[Aman]

Damn.

Could be all out by today.

 

[Sam18696]

Yasir gets one

 

[Justcrazy]

Outttttttttttt

Yasir strikes.

 

[akamaka]

messi does it

 

[Justcrazy]

Finally a wicket.

 

[Aman]

Good knock by Ish, should come in ahead of Southee next innings.

 

[Yatoo]

Messi. Muaaaahhhhhhh

 

[Sherlock]

Shehzad is one of uglier batsmen going around.

Williamson is all class when playing strokes.

Okay

Oh my!

 

[saiyan0312]

yasir gets a wicket

 

[Aman]

Okay

Oh my!

You don't have to be a genius to realize that, all you need is eyes

 

[Mr Consistent]

yes 9 down

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

In Shah ji utho .....

 

[Fastandfurious]

Yes please, even the tailenders scored off him at will.

Shhhhh Silence child.

 

[Yatoo]

You don't have to be a genius to realize that, all you need is eyes

Doesn't matter. What matters is runs.
Chandepaul says Hi.

 

[Space Cat]

Vettori would of loved batting on this pitch. Sweeps all day.

 

[Justcrazy]

105 to avoid follow on.

 

[Ahson8]

Finally a wicket for Yasor.

Ooooooh Watling beaten all ends up on that one.

 

[Aman]

Definitely turning now

 

[NZcricketfan]

Vettori would of loved batting on this pitch. Sweeps all day.

Love batting against pakistan too

 

[Justcrazy]

The ball turning a bit here.

 

[Boi]

Bring Rahat on. Let him take a much deserved 5fer.

 

[Aman]

Bound to happen, is it stumps or do we have to bat again?

 

[Justcrazy]

Outtttttt

All out

 

[Ahson8]

That's it. All out.
I hope we follow on.

 

[akamaka]

all over

 

[Aman]

That's plumb

 

[Space Cat]

Shhhhh Silence child.

He got a tailender out. But they still scored off him quite easily.

 

[Yatoo]

Love batting against pakistan too

Vettori has a century or two against us. Right! The Umar Akmal debut series.

 

[JaDed]

He has couple of good centuries.
One against India was in a crunch situation I guess.

His 100's have come against weakest bowling sides- Zim,Bang and yes India.Has only 24 tests under him with 37 ish average not sure he is better than 'all of them'

 

[Aman]

Didn't hit it.

 

[Justcrazy]

Trail by 304 runs.

 

[akamaka]

Bat again, for 1-1/2 sessions tmrw and have 4 and 1/2 sessions at them.

 

[Space Cat]

All out. Will Pakistan bat again?

 

[saiyan0312]

thats plumb and gone is walting. babar has a 3fer here.

 

[Yatoo]

Misbah should not enforce follow on. Should play till lunch tomorrow. They to break Viv record again

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan will bat ?

 

[Fastandfurious]

He got a tailender out. But they still scored off him quite easily.

Leggies feast on tailenders.

 

[Aman]

Rubbish effort today, gave away far too many wickets.

Should have gotten ourselves into a position to draw this match.

 

[akamaka]

Pakistan batting again.

 

[Mr Consistent]

yess all over

 

[Space Cat]

Leggies feast on tailenders.

He must be left feeling half full then.

 

[Mr Consistent]

New Zealand trail by 304 runs

 

[NZcricketfan]

Rubbish effort today, gave away far too many wickets.

Should have gotten ourselves into a position to draw this match.

I want to see if we can learn from it.

 

[Justcrazy]

Misbah should not enforce follow on. Should play till lunch tomorrow. They to break Viv record again

Which record?

 

[Yatoo]

His 100's have come against weakest bowling sides- Zim,Bang and yes India.Has only 24 tests under him with 37 ish average not sure he is better than 'all of them'

The standard of WK batting is such that I don't find anyone better than him. You name anyone?

 

[imback]

Pakistan to let NZ follow on?

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan should bat a bit more than lunch.

 

[saiyan0312]

no follow on. looks like we will bat for 2 sessions and give ourselves 4 to bowl you out.

 

[Mr Consistent]

pakistan will bat I think Good decision

 

[Space Cat]

Pakistan will be batting again.

 

[JaDed]

The standard of WK batting is such that I don't find anyone better than him. You name anyone?

What is the 'standard'?

 

[Yatoo]

Which record?

The one he equalled.

 

[NZcricketfan]

Pakistan should bat again. Imran Khan seems to have the stamina of an old zaheer khan.

 

[Aman]

4 sessions, if the wicket holds up, surely the batsmen will improve from their first innings failure?

 

[Yatoo]

What is the 'standard'?

Average. Centuries and half centuries against better bowling attacks. Runs away from home. At home.

 

[Space Cat]

NZ should look to grab an early wicket or two to make it harder for Pakistan to pile on quick runs.

 

[Sherlock]

You don't have to be a genius to realize that, all you need is eyes

Maybe you should use you won advice then

 

[saiyan0312]

Well 7 overs left in the day.

 

[Aman]

Pakistan should bat again. Imran Khan seems to have the stamina of an old zaheer khan.

Dude only bowled 11 overs too )

Anderson was able to manage 135 clicks after 15 overs

 

[Fastandfurious]

This should be the last test for Imran.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

no follow on .......... come on.

 

[Space Cat]

Rahat deserved a chance to get a 5 for.

 

[taqi]

Pakistan should give them atleast 5 sessions NZ played for almost 4 sessions in first innings they can do it in second

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

so azhar ali can open..... just not with shehzad. conspiracy theory?

 

[Space Cat]

Good nut first up by Boult.

 

[saiyan0312]

inswinging yorkers. they are in no mood to be messing around.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

how lead is pakistan looking for? 450?

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Will azhar try to take them on?

 

[Yatoo]

Hafeez needs to score big here. He can play at a good strike rate.

 

[Sam18696]

Pak have enough runs on the board so I don't care if they collapse.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Hafeez back in business.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

maiden to start off.

 

[Aman]

Looks to be more swing out there for bowlers than there was in the first innings.

 

[ethan hunt]

imran and rahat were better then boult and southee , lets hope the nz seamers turn up in the 2nd innings .
