You're wrong mate.

loose  [loos] Show IPA adjective, loos⋅er, loos⋅est, adverb, verb loosed, loos⋅ing.
–adjective

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/loose

The verb is either loosed or loosing not looser.

Nope I'm not wrong. You're wrong.

Also, you have misunderstood what I said.

I was correcting your definition of 'looser' which was 'make lose' or 'loosen', which is actually a verb not an adjective. The adjective 'looser' means....MORE loose. It is the comparative of the adjective loose.....loose, looser, loosest being the adjective, the comparative and the superlative. It has nothing to do with making something loose or loosening something as you were saying.

The verb is to loosen, not loosed or loosing. Loosening is the present continuous....but loosing....no such word. You're completely wrong.

By the way I'm an English teacher so no point in contradicting me on this one ;-)

and that is not a silly argument? Name one player who voluntarily stepped aside at this young age?

He knows he's been picked because of his father in law. If he had any shame he would walk away. the man would be a legend in my eyes if he did so. I don't see what's silly in that at all.
 
9 overs and our openers are still there in these horrible batting conditions! :14:
 
Wow a few unbeleivable changes ... maybe the selectors read mohammad wasim's interview on Pakpassion! He was spot on with all three changes.

How many players have done that before?

Did you see that 44444444444? ;-)

I dont understand, sorry I havent been reading about it. Why is everyone scared to bat at No.3 for Pak ? Will they be sniped on the head if they come back to Pakistan by younis Khan's mafia ?

Its a 'seniors' thing.
 
Lets hope Farhat doesn't make too many. Enough for a decent opening stand not too much to keep him in the team.

3 runs to Imran Farhat. I'm getting worried.
 
11 overs and our openers are still there in these horrible batting conditions! :14:

Imran Farhat in double figures. He needs to do a sajda and wave his bat then get out now.
 
commies are right .. martin should stay over the wicket .. he would have surely gotten a few edges
 
Butt has looked comfortable out there. Farhat has been iffy.

I hope I don't jinx 'em. My first post in this thread since play began....
 
These two have scored too many runs already, means second innings they're destined for failure!
 
I am sure that is a farhat look a like batting out there - there's no other explaination.

Butt is looking pretty solid.

Surprising.

just wait till they start bowling him short stuff

nz havent done their homework

Like Jeera said. It's actually his father in law.
 
i wonder if Farhat will get a double century
 
Farhat should make his average and retire hurt. Should be enough to keep him in the team.

That's what we said last time and he made malik dance on the wicket.

good point, although anyone who has half a brain can do that. malik is a great player of spin and decent a good player of medium pace but not great against movement combined with decent pace
 
They can't go wrong if they play attack with caution. Aren't doing bad so far. As long as they don't go bezerk or get bogged they should be fine. Farhat and Butt ftw iA!!! :)
 
Butt is getting behind the ball and playing solid defense. Farhat still playing across.
 
Anyone watching ... Martin has bowled 6 overs for 5 runs. Is he bowling well or just too wide that our batsmen are just leaving?
 
12 overs and our openers are still there in these horrible batting conditions! :14:
 
they shoud a morbildly obese man eating cheese fries and
Wagar goes "he must have tried a few of these"

He is bowling tight line/length -- plus butt/imran not taking any chances.
 
The guy doing the ads & voiceovers on zee- what a horrible voice!
