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

[Justcrazy]

Kiwis will be harder nut to crack than Aussies.

 

[Justcrazy]

Babar on , latham sweeping well.

 

[Justcrazy]

Babar has to bowl quicker to get LBW here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Younis is now captain , Misbah not on field.

 

[Justcrazy]

Latham moves into 90.

 

[Justcrazy]

Nothing for fast bowlers here , just no response.

 

[Justcrazy]

Misbah back in the field

 

[Justcrazy]

Again swept by latham.

 

[Mamoon]

[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] You seem off today.Some extremely poor posts.

Forgive me, I'm always cranky during exams and the performance today hasn't helped either.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Good resistance by the kiwis.

 

[Yatoo]

Koi out hoga ya nai?

 

[Justcrazy]

Beautiful ball. Turn and bounce !!!!

 

[OZGOD]

Latham deserves a ton. Geez he's worked hard.

 

[Justcrazy]

Imran to continue.

 

[Justcrazy]

Not out.....

 

[Justcrazy]

Four

Short ball and smacked.

 

[Justcrazy]

Latham deserves a ton. Geez he's worked hard.

He will get it.[emoji41]

 

[Aman]

Latham deserves a ton. Geez he's worked hard.

Up this early for the Kiwis?

 

[Justcrazy]

No ball by Imran.

 

[Aman]

How many no balls have these Pakistani pacers got away with?

 

[Justcrazy]

199/5

 

[Mamoon]

Ordinary cricket by Pakistan.

 

[Justcrazy]

Latham has really surprised me.

200 up for kiwis.

 

[Aman]

100, well done Latham

 

[saiyan0312]

hundred by latham. we will need to watch out for this guy.

 

[hussain.r97]

for Latham! Well played!

 

[Sandeep]

Latham, you beauty!

 

[Aman]

Why we were persisting with players like Rutherford and Fulton when he had some one like him in the domestics is beyond me.

 

[OZGOD]

Well deserved Latho worked hard

 

[JibranAnsari]

Why we were persisting with players like Rutherford and Fulton when he had some one like him in the domestics is beyond me.

He is only 22.

 

[OZGOD]

Pretty much showed the OZ and his teammates how to bat on this wicket

 

[hussain.r97]

Exactly Latham and Ryder would be a million times better than Rutherford and Fulton.

 

[Aman]

He is only 22.

He should have been in earlier, he was always talked about when Fulton and Rutherford were failing.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Thats how you score a 100 on this pitch.

 

[Sandeep]

Told you, New Zealand are currently much superior to Aussies! Hell, they're proving me right. Good fight against a rampaging Pakistan side

 

[Aman]

Exactly Latham and Ryder would be a million times better than Rutherford and Fulton.

Ryder shouldn't open, I'd have Watling open and move Ryder into the middle order at 5 or 6.

 

[OZGOD]

I'm sure Neesham and Anderson will be kicking themselves at throwing their wickets away

And back in Australia so will Glenn NO SHOW Maxwell

 

[Aman]

Told you, New Zealand are currently much superior to Aussies! Hell, they're proving me right. Good fight against a rampaging Pakistan side

Too early to say, this is a road.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Yah a very good find for nz.

technique and has a wide range of shots.

 

[Sandeep]

Too early to say, this is a road.

And what did Aussies do on these roads? I'll tell you. Nothing.

 

[Sam18696]

Good innings from Latham now please get his wicket.

 

[OZGOD]

Told you, New Zealand are currently much superior to Aussies! Hell, they're proving me right. Good fight against a rampaging Pakistan side

Let's not get too excited. I know they flogged you guys in Hobbiton earlier this year but they are still 360+ runs behind.

They don't try to score at 4 runs per over which suits these conditions more. Except Neesham.

 

[hussain.r97]

Ryder shouldn't open, I'd have Watling open and move Ryder into the middle order at 5 or 6.

That would work better too. Anything is better than Rutherford and Fulton IMO

 

[Aman]

Yep, idk how we've done better than the Aussies when we're still in follow on range.

 

[Aman]

Ramiz doing his best to jinx us

 

[Space Cat]

Latham has played a couple of very long innings for Canterbury so hes capable of pushing on. Plus he has specialist support man Watling with him.

 

[saiyan0312]

Leggie is back. yasir to bowl.

 

[Aman]

That would work better too. Anything is better than Rutherford and Fulton IMO

Rutherford is a one hit wonder, that hundred against England wasted a year and half for NZ.

Nothing of note after it.

 

[OZGOD]

Yep, idk how we've done better than the Aussies when we're still in follow on range.

What you've done is bat time. If you can bat another two sessions into lunch on Day 4 I think you will have gone well on your way to saving it. Shame Anderson and Neesham threw their wickets away but the tail should be good for 50+ runs at least.

 

[Yatoo]

This is a draw.
Anyone disagree?

 

[Mamoon]

Woeful cricket by Pakistan.

 

[OZGOD]

Actually if you can bat till lunch tomorrow, even if you don't get to the follow on, Pakistan will probably be forced to enforce it and you will get a chance to have them bat last.

 

[Aman]

This is a draw.
Anyone disagree?

Nah, we can collapse at any time.

You're giving us too much respect, still potentially 2 days to bat out.

 

[Lords]

In this country when pakistan bats wickets either dont fall or fall by bad luck but when opposition bats, you know they are not going to save follow on.

I mean it has not be the case always abut looks like Pakistan batting and the pitch has peaked at the right time.

 

[Mamoon]

The team is showing it's true colors. LOL at the 'new era'.

Their is only one era in Pakistan cricket - the era of sheer mediocrity.

This isn't a Test standard attack. Australia gifted us the wickets and NZ top 5 as well. Babar and Yasir are nothing special.

 

[Sam18696]

This is a draw.
Anyone disagree?

Me.

 

[Aman]

I'm happy with what I've seen from the Kiwi's so far, they should realistically get better from this Test onwards.

Your wrist slitting is annoying. Go do it somewhere else.

 

[Aman]

New ball 8 overs away.... Could account for 2-3 wickets..

you waste a lot of your time watching a mediocre team. If there is no hope why bother wasting your time.

 

[Mamoon]

This is the problem with leg spinners. Sure they exciting but if your name is not Shane Warne, you will bowl filth 8/10 times.

 

[zabalestmsm]

What a delivery!

 

[Mamoon]

So just because my country's team is mediocre I should give up my obsession with cricket?

 

[Aman]

Great delivery.

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Brilliant delivery

 

[saiyan0312]

that looked plumb. Given and REVIEWED clipping and we are in.

 

[hussain.r97]

Reviewed.

 

[Sam18696]

Aussies scored 303 then collapsed to 210 something ib the second innings. Same can happen to NZ.

 

[Space Cat]

might be doing to much?

 

[Mamoon]

Your wrist slitting is annoying. Go do it somewhere else.

Only if the word 'wrist slitting' did not exist. How convenient would it be.

 

[Aman]

Clipping at worst.

 

[zabalestmsm]

Yasir Shah has looked very ordinary so far!

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Some people really need to cut down on the wrist slitting

 

[Aman]

Just clipping

 

[CalculatedRisk]

 

[MRSN]

What a ripper.

 

[saiyan0312]

Clipping and we are in. Latham gone.

 

[akamaka]

unlucky rahat does it again

 

[shaaik]

It's gonner
