Pakistan v New Zealand | 2nd Test - Day 2 | Wellington | 4/12/09

[Afridi_Fan]

200/0

 

[Usman Chadda]

Farhat's driving in this innings has been delightful

 

[UP]

Lead now 200.

 

[khanz141]

I don't think Farhat is so bad..... His shots and Technique are pretty good. All he has to do is stop the fishing at times, not think about smashing everything and he is perfect for tests.

 

[insaaniyat]

lol "even if Pakistan looses another 10 wickets for 100 runs NZ will be chasing 300", the commentator, what is he trying to be optimistically pessimistic

they have conceded the test match

 

[Juggernaut]

how would that help pakistan?

Farhat in the team is of no advantage to Pakistan.

Did the commentator just say the ''unpredictable'' Umar Akmal.

How is he unpredictable? He's a solid run scorer thats what he is.

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

2 more runs to the total..

 

[insaaniyat]

now we see so many iDamaad supporters coming out of closet

 

[UP]

We don't know how the weather will behave, so Pakistan needs to put on some runs quickly and make sure we have ample time to bowl NZ out. We can't afford to have people playing for they places.
I am not saying that's what these two are doing but just stating a fact.

Weather is pretty good for cricket, next 2 or 3 days.

Omar Akmal so far has been very predictable, that is scoring runs

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Now we lead by 200 runs.. Yay !!

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

35/0

Lead is 200

 

[Usman Chadda]

now we see so many iDamaad supporters coming out of closet

He is still a terrible waste of space unless he scores consistently for 3-4 tests. Batting is not just about looking stylish out there

 

[iafzal]

they sounded more disappointe. Sounded more like he should have been given out

Yes true but they did say umpire made the right decision didn't they?

Being Kiwis it is natural to be disappointed

 

[Juggernaut]

now we see so many iDamaad supporters coming out of closet

Fickle fans. It's a disease associated strongly with Pakistan cricket. We don't even have fans who are consistent with their views. They just jump on and off the bandwagon.

Anyway, is Farhat out yet?

 

[khanz141]

now we see so many iDamaad supporters coming out of closet

Well id somebody shows promise and is doing well, wouldnt u support him. And its not like we have a Hayden waiting on the outside anyway

 

[Seen Sheen]

Is he the guy saying that he was out?

yup and he kept insisting even after 3rd ump gave it not out that he shouldve been given out..

 

[insaaniyat]

He is still a terrible waste of space unless he scores consistently for 3-4 tests. Batting is not just about looking stylish out there

true

 

[Usman Chadda]

Butt getting frustrated

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

In the end, Doul said the correct decision was made about the runout appeal.

 

[amar1212]

now we see so many iDamaad supporters coming out of closet

he still suck...i will never get over the fact that he dropped 5 catches and batted so poorly, and causing us to lose the 1st test. issed:

 

[insaaniyat]

why did i know you will respond to my post? a true iDamaad supporter lol

 

[Juggernaut]

3-4 tests?

If he can go 20-30 tests and score solidly then I just might start coming round to him.

But I know as well as anyone else that sifarish or no sifarish he won't be playing for this team a few months down the line.

It happened with Nazir and I'm confident it'll happen with Farhat.

201/0

 

[imshally81]

very pathetic commentry

 

[haroonrasheed320]

Numbers of wickets Qadir took.

Thank you captain.

That will be a great achievement for Dani, I can't forget that Balaji wicket where Pakistan drew the series against India

[Seen Sheen]

'Home Alone' comes on to bowl.

 

[insaaniyat]

I am not for him either even if he scores 100, He will not survive in Australia. But ;ile it or not, he is our opener for Australia tour

 

[Cheguvera]

iDammad reached a plateau when was playing in the U-13s...I don't think he has improved nor will he improve the rest of his life...even if he manages to struggle his way to a decent total...the chances of that happening on a consistent basis are little to none...

 

[khanz141]

why did i know you will respond to my post? a true iDamaad supporter lol

I am not a fan of his at all, i rather hate him more just like i Support Yunis as captain which is against your view again but I never want anyone to do bad just for the simple fact that i hate them. And it always leads to good things for pakistan

 

[Juggernaut]

Bowl round the wicket to Farhat. Attack the wickets. His tendency to fall over will get you an lbw.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Ok now football is a beautiful game. Comm. Have lost it.

 

[haroonrasheed320]

As I predicted this match is gonna end in 4 days there is no need to worry about the weather at all

 

[ali_ed2006]

is the match ending in 5 mins or do we have another hour?

 

[insaaniyat]

I am not a fan of his at all, i rather hate him more just like i Support Yunis as captain which is against your view again but I never want anyone to do bad just for the simple fact that i hate them. And it always leads to good things for pakistan

I could sure agree with you on that. I want Pakistan to win, that is for sure

 

[godzilla]

murali got sewag before his triple if anyones interested.

 

[amar1212]

I am not for him either even if he scores 100, He will not survive in Australia. But ;ile it or not, he is our opener for Australia tour

you never know with what the selectors/captain (yunis khan might be back) decide

 

[ali_ed2006]

silly running

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Lol pathetic running by Butt.

 

[MIG]

Guys - just a little advice -

pls stop using names for players (iDammad, idone etc)

Its bringing down the quality of the posts and makes our forums looks very ordinary.

Thanks

 

[haroonrasheed320]

is the match ending in 5 mins or do we have another hour?

12 overs remaining in the day that's like 50 minutes

 

[Juggernaut]

The running is hilarious.

These two are both idiots. Two peas in a pod.

 

[saeed-sohail]

Salman butt seriously needs to improve his running.

 

[Usman Chadda]

I am not for him either even if he scores 100, He will not survive in Australia. But ;ile it or not, he is our opener for Australia tour

I remember Farhat in Australia on the 2004 tour. Suffice to say, I have never seen a top-order batsman get tortured as much as Farhat was by McGrath and co.

 

[insaaniyat]

is the match ending in 5 mins or do we have another hour?

12 overs left

 

[khanz141]

I could sure agree with you on that. I want Pakistan to win, that is for sure

Yeah, i hate malik being in the team also and then the dropping of Fawad made me want Pakistan to loose but once the match started, then i had to support the players that were chosen, for now atleast

 

[insaaniyat]

Vettori will trap iDamad in front...

i am afraid it is iDamaad's day

 

[Juggernaut]

Oh so close.

Farhat nearly gives a catch.

 

[Cheguvera]

Almost...iDammad...iGone...

 

[ali_ed2006]

quite right

they're made for eachother.

 

[Gollum]

LOL...Farhat has no clue against spin

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

39/0

Lead is 204

 

[insaaniyat]

I wanted Fawad there too, but then again whoever plays i do support because I want pakistan to win, I do my bitching after they don;t perform

 

[Juggernaut]

How many runs has Farhat got so far?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Thank you captain.

That will be a great achievement for Dani, I can't forget that Balaji wicket where Pakistan drew the series against India

http://www.cricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/64127.html

took out Sachin, Sourav and VVS.

 

[ali_ed2006]

How many runs has Farhat got so far?

23 believe it or not.

 

[insaaniyat]

How many runs has Farhat got so far?

11 runs less than his average

 

[Cheguvera]

How many runs has Farhat got so far?

Don't worry he won't score beyond his career average of 32...

 

[Gollum]

How many runs has Farhat got so far?

23. I'd say he's got even chance of getting out before 30.

 

[Juggernaut]

23 believe it or not.

9 more and he should be off.

 

[MIG]

Almost...iDammad...iGone...

Pls stop using this iDammad thing - thanks

 

[Liverpool_Faizan]

the ngativity by some of the ppl on this forum is disguisting. go support another team if u cannot support ur own.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Farhat looks clueless against vettori,he wont survive his ongoing spell..

 

[Gollum]

9 more and he should be off.

And it would be too late by then as it will secure his place for the foreseeable future.

 

[Juggernaut]

Note to commentator:

When Pakistan have a bad hour or two no body can match it for its patheticness (is that even a word?)

 

[Cheguvera]

Jeetan the killa...

 

[Afridi_Fan]

207/0

 

[Juggernaut]

No worries mate.

I have already accepted the fact that our batting is pathetic.

We have two batters in the team: Umar and Yousuf

We have a decent wicketkeeper and 4 bowlers. That's 7 players.

 

[Gollum]

Butt should hog all the strike to protect his fellow opener.

 

[germanboy]

any idea match kitne bajhe tak chalega?

 

[insaaniyat]

207/0

another 100 and we are safe

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Kiwis bettered that. 15/6 beat that.

[ali_ed2006]

farhat hits a 6

 

[germanboy]

Min overs remaining 9.2

 

[Seen Sheen]

Butt looks a lot more assured against spin than Farhat..

 

[hur rizvi]

Six from iDamad

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Farhat.

 

[MIG]

Take that!!

SIX by Farhat and Farhat doubters can go and stick their heads in ....

214 the lead

 

[insaaniyat]

I like his style
