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

[taqi]

i think pakistan should play 50-55 overs and look to score 200 by doing this they can dec after half of session after lunch and have good 140 overs to get them out and 500 runs on score board

 

[Yatoo]

how lead is pakistan looking for? 450?

Yes. 150 in 40 overs will be good to more.
Leaves us with 90+50 overs.

 

[Aman]

What a jaffa from Southee.

WTH was this on day 1

 

[Aman]

Azhar had no clue.

 

[Fastandfurious]

Beauty.

 

[Aman]

Get them playing boys, don't waste the ball with wide deliveries outside off.

 

[ethan hunt]

Imran troubled Mccullum , southee should fancy himself against hafeez.

 

[JaDed]

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

Dhoni has an average above him but i do agree he is toothless.
De Cock has played only 4 tests but looks better.
Sarfraz i can't say.
Ramdin - yes he is better than him.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

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

infact it is license to go for a kill.

Ramdin - yes he is better than him.

I already said in previous post that DE cock is only one among the current lot which will best him.
Don't think ramdin is anywhere closer.
One century in England don't make you great.
And his recent knocks have been in limited overs not tests.

 

[Asif321]

480 should be target i hope they not looking for 600

 

[Mamoo_cricket]

Who thinks it's an action replay of previous 2 tests, i haven't seen so identical script for 3 consecutive matches? Have any of you?

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

no boundries, no fireworks. lame.

This was more frustrating keeping in view our expectations are high this time

 

[Yatoo]

Why loose a wicket today? Let's go all guns blazing tomorrow.

 

[Sam18696]

Chisti is really funny

 

[saiyan0312]

hafeez played that well,

 

[Fastandfurious]

Kookaburra is crap. Don't know why Pakistan stopped using Duke.

what else you expect from pak?

 

[Yatoo]

what else you expect from pak?

Wickets every over. Haha

 

[battler]

Kookaburra is crap. Don't know why Pakistan stopped using Duke.

SG ball is best for spin.

 

[Sam18696]

These two bowling well

Review taken

 

[Sam18696]

Outside leg

 

[saiyan0312]

Review

 

[Fastandfurious]

SG ball is best for spin.

Duke and SG are similar.

 

[saiyan0312]

Wasted as its outside leg. we could use that/

 

[razabbas]

Why not follow on

 

[saiyan0312]

2 overs left now. lets end the day on a high.

 

[Sam18696]

Sheheryar Khan is in the house.

Sodhi time.

 

[Fastandfurious]

[MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION]'s brother on.

 

[Sam18696]

3 balls to survive. Cmon boys.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Azhar again showing today, why he is tailor made for the opening position. He has the best technique and mind to lay the new ball in all of the SC at the moment.

Draft Haris in for Hafeez and we can have a really strong batting line-up.

 

[Sam18696]

Stumps

 

[Arsal_AK]

Why not follow on

Because its a three match series and you want your bowlers fresh.

 

[Yatoo]

Record is declaring 6 innings on trot. Hopefully we will break that or equal it also.

 

[90MPH]

Pakistans day again.

 

[saiyan0312]

Stumps and we are 15/0. Should look to smash everything out tomorrow.

 

[Yatoo]

Another day belongs to Pakistan.
So 12 out of 13 last test match days have belonged to us.

The only day which I feel belonged to opposition or at least was even was when warner and roggers put a century stand.

Still that day was pretty much in our side maybe 60-40 to us
