2 and half hours left!

Come on Pakistan, win a test match!

Only 7 wickets, 335 to win.

:pakflag2
 
really can u imagine if Asif, Aamer and Gul bowl like this in Australia..scary isnt it
 
Does this day also start half an hour early aswell?

P.S. Can you check the forcast for the day and add it to the OP.
 
I am hoping for victrory today is test match for Pakistan .This will be only victory in last 3years .Last time Pakistan won a test match was in Jan 2007 against South Africa .
 
i am excited and as well as nervous, just cant shake this bad feeling for some reason hopefully it is nothing to worry about and Inshallah our boys will make us proud

I still feel we are 50 runs short to be safe, i know 400 is a mammoth total to chase in the last innings but with the amount of time left and with taylor batting and vettori and mccullum still to come, anything is possible.

One thing is for sure we cant drop any catches now

Inshallah Pak will do well

Cold, windy and cloudy, later rain and showers. Hope that cold fingers dont help the KIWIS.

I have a feeling we will drop catches, extend the match and then the rain hits us. We are capable of doing anything. Other scenario would be to clean out NZ lower order ( yes that is all 7 wickets ) before lunch. Just wait and see which side shows up:)
 
Inshallah the bowlers can take advantage of the cloud cover early on and wrap it up before the rain comes in the evening :)

I would be very nervous f we were chasing any total but I am sure our bowlers will not disappoint us if our fielder take all the catches :younis

You do have a big IF there, the other factor also is the weather.
 
I hope amir and asif get some seam movement early on so we could finish this up as soon as possible.

Ditto. I have the same exact bad feeling about today. Something just doesn't fit right. I hope to God I am wrong. Someone please tell me that I am outta my mind. Its just that we haven't won a test in such a long time, I'll only relax when it is over. We always somehow manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. And these dropped catches don't help either. Our bowlers almost have to get 30 wkts to win a match due to all the dropped catches.

Very nervous. Dont know if I'll have the stomach to actually watch.

Go get 'em Kiwis boys!

First hour will tell the story. If you see dropped catches etc. Turn the TV off:)
 
If there is a lot of wind, then that will surely help Asif bring in the ball more to the right handers. :D.

He seems to be devastaing against the right hander. Wish he was the same against the lefty
 
Lets just not drop the catches, and we will finish them in two sessions. InshaAllah

Hello and welcome to the coverage of the third day's play. New Zealand are battling for survival, and are fortunate to reach 70 for 3. Both overnight batsmen had catches dropped off them; we'll see if they make the best use of it. Aamer is ready to kick things off.
 
This is rubbish stuff from the National Television. :pissed:
 
Yaar please don't post those big pictures here. I'm on cell phone and that slows down or almost kills the speed. Thanks.
 
That is some strong wind. I wouldn't be surprised if the windspeed was faster than the bowling speed.
 
Khan wins in like 1 minute 15 seconds .. lol
