Yousuf is a loser - he has absolutely no sense of competition whatsoever. I always felt that his return would weaken the team and so it has.

agreed, a player who left the country for money becomes the captain, says everything about the PCB
 
Imran Farhat (lhb) 29 1678 128 32.26
Salman Butt (lhb) 23 1146 122 28.65

Farhat has the better record
 
Oh what? Tell me Junior isn't really going to bat at 3, leave him at 5/6. Last thing you want to do with a talented youngster is mess him around, let him get comfortable in international cricket before you change his role in the team.

Would prefer to see Misbah bat one down.

If Yousuf is a loser then the rest of the team must be losers.
 
ej. butt knows he is leaving soon as Zardari wants to get some favorism by removing butt so mr.butt doing his best to make his friends happy
 
Butt watches the 1st 2 balls go past.

I predict he will nick the 5th or 6th one

you're spot on. they are. 3 years without a test win and no ODI series wins this year doesn't make them winners. and yusuf's their captain and rightly so
 
Farhat has very very big safarish, I bet Intikhab Alam said we MUST play him or we are dead meat when we go back. Farhat can look forward to being the most hated sportsman in the world! What does a safarishi have to do to get dropped?

Hope he makes a double roasted duck!
 
2 overs and our openers are still there in these horrible batting conditions! :14:
 
Martin looking in superb touch - every ball on the mark.

I sense an LBW or nick...
 
If Butt and Farhat get 20 runs each I will not only be surprised I'll be so pleased aswell.

Might be worth waiting up if Umar Akmal does come in next. Wouldn't be surprised as the senior middle order are too scared to take the bull by the horns, and are willing to sacrifice the newbie.
 
1/0

The calm before the storm.

I just hope Sallu mian plays with soft hands.

I couldn't give a **** about what Farhat does.
 
3 overs and our openers are still there in these horrible batting conditions! :14:
 
Come on Farhat.

20 runs is the target.

Plays inside the line and gets an edge that doesn't carry.
 
Ive got money on Butt running out Farhat, and Moyo running out Butt.

I'll win $786,000 if it happens
 
I had my hands in the air for a moment in joy.
 
4 overs and our openers are still there in these horrible batting conditions! :14:
 
Stephen Fleming in the house.

Nice to see him.

One of the good guys of the game.

ANY conditions are horrible for our openers....
 
Akmal to come at 3 so we can accomdate the seniors.
 
C'mon guys. I hate Farhat just as much as anyone else if not more, but you can't root for Pakistan to lose a wicket. Even if that wicket is of Farhat's. That's not patriotic.
 
NZ wasting a lot of balls - wide outside off stick.

Surely they know our openers 'rep'?
 
Both Butt and Farhat have 2 hundreds in tests, Farhat leads with 11 fifties to Butt's 6

I want Farhat to fail so he never plays for Pakistan again.

I think thats patriotic.
 
With Bond out, Pak have a huge advantage over New Zealand in the Pace dept. Just need to bat sensibly and get around 350 runs plus.
 
I think that the Imran Farhat will struggle
 
5 overs and our openers are still there in these horrible batting conditions! :14:
