Pakistan v New Zealand | 2nd Test | Nov 17-21, 2014 | Dubai | Day 4

[dhump]

Rubbish call, no deviation or benefit of the doubt.

Where's snicko and hotspot?

Latham reviewed it straight away, he must have known he didn't glove it.

Where are the people who were crying about the lbw decision in the first innings lol. Suddenly when a 50/50 decision goes in favour of Pakistan it is a fair system

Here are the people crying on a catch decision in 2nd inning. Please collect if for 4th inning because always some cry babies will come out no matter which team is playing.

I don't care about the decision. But the hypocrisy from people is making my day.

Here's the oh so classy Dump

 

[hussain.r97]

Too many people talking about the decision, nobody talking about the catch. Great stuff from Shafiq, made up for his own wicket for me

Here's the oh so classy Dump

Come on 9 more wickets and then another inning to go save it for later.

Looks like you are suffering from the same disease you accuse others.

Don't worry no ones out to get little NZ.

 

[Aman]

Complaining about a umpires call is being bitter, fans genuinely have something to feel aggrieved about here because there was zero evidence to suggest he hit it. If the same call had gone against any other team and their best batsmen, I would have expected the same and fair enough really.

 

[NZcricketfan]

Oh the decision was definitely the right one. There was doubt so the on field call had to stay.

 

[imshally81]

If the reply is not very clear... then it is Umpire Call... Very Simple Logic !!

This :asad

 

[Space Cat]

Latham wasn't out. But i guess if you can't afford hot spot its how it goes.

 

[Space Cat]

the system needs an overhaul according to some on here on day 1.

 

[hussain.r97]

This is why DRS is incomplete without Hot Spot and Snicko IMO

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

This NZ vs Pak series has seriously been a fueled up affair on PP. Never knew we were such pumped up rivals. I believe the Anay do series wasn't even remotely close to the banter we have had in the past 2 weeks

 

[Aman]

If the reply is not very clear... then it is Umpire Call... Very Simple Logic !!

For these decisions i.e. ones not relying on ball prediction, the third umpire gets the best view - have him make the call from the replays for channels that can't supply hotspot.

 

[saiyan0312]

Ohh sharp turn off the rough

 

[desi_launda]

Scoring rates have been pathetic in the UAE this season.

 

[Aman]

But it's pointless, if we were playing this series anywhere else other than here, India, SL and Bangladesh ( do they have hotspot), we wouldn't be arguing as hotspot would have given a clearer picture.

Btw.. who is the Third Umpire..... ?

 

[imshally81]

Draw on the card

 

[Space Cat]

SL didn't have hot spot. Im surprised they had colour picture actually.

 

[Aman]

Btw.. who is the Third Umpire..... ?

Rod Tucker

 

[NZcricketfan]

I know Bangladesh rarely has speed guns. What is modern cricket without being able to see bowler speeds.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

What target will NZ try to set if all goes according to plan for them? I think maybe 280 odd in 2 sessions

 

[imshally81]

Rod Tucker

Thanks GOD... he is Neutral

 

[Amjid Javed]

Need a good last session and need to pick up 3/4 wickets atleast so that kiwis arent in a postion then to try and force the game.

 

[Aman]

[MENTION=131138]Space Cat[/MENTION] we need an enforcer in the team

 

[Mamoo_cricket]

Best case scenario for both teams to force a win, for NZ they have to score at 6 runs per over for 30 overs of this last session which mean lead of around 250 at close of play, even at cost of 3 wickets, for pak best scenario is to get atleast 5 wickets in this last session at less than three runs per over which mean lead of 150 but just 4 more wickets to get tommarow, but what will happen will be in between these scenarios, NZ will score at 4 runs per over and likely to lose 2 wickets which mean at close of play NZ will be leading by about 180 runs with 7 wickets in hand, so it will be a 99% draw scenario, not enough runs for NZ to force a win nor enough wickets for Pak to have a shoot at win.

 

[Aman]

If Pakistan win or draw this, Sarfraz has to be the MOTM, his innings turned the game.

No doubt.[emoji106]

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan have to bat at some point tomorrow and survive.

 

[Justcrazy]

Scoring rates have been pathetic in the UAE this season.

Azhar should take credit for that.

 

[saiyan0312]

Yasir shah is back.

 

[Justcrazy]

Yasir shah is back.

So is Rameez [emoji41]

 

[Justcrazy]

Raneez critical of field setting when Mac is on strike.

 

[Justcrazy]

Yasir does not flight enough. That is why ni curve.

 

[Justcrazy]

Mac now second highest test runs scored for kiwis.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Draw seems the most probable result at the moment.

 

[saiyan0312]

muccullum is NZ second highest scorer ever. did not see that one coming.

 

[hussain.r97]

This a a very important partnership for New Zealand, also making it the partnership Pakistan must break ASAP if they have any chance.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Yasir needs to give a bit more air. He is a fast leg spinner

 

[Justcrazy]

Good ball , a bit uppish .

 

[Justcrazy]

Williamson playing spin well here

 

[Justcrazy]

Lead 73 now.

 

[akamaka]

 

[razabbas]

wow what a catch today we are in johnty rhodes mode

 

[Justcrazy]

Yasir needs to give a bit more air. He is a fast leg spinner

Yes , that is something Mustaq has to tell him.

 

[saiyan0312]

uppish and taufeew takes a great catch to remove williamson.

 

[akamaka]

great catch, azhar was in the way

 

[Justcrazy]

Williamson gone

 

[Mamoon]

Hello everyone.

 

[hussain.r97]

Got him! Williamson not having the best of tours here. Could have hit it either side, but picked the man perfectly.

 

[Justcrazy]

Taylor in now.

 

[razabbas]

need macca wicket asap

 

[Justcrazy]

Can Taylor bat aggressively here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Good shot.

 

[Mamoo_cricket]

Pak need 4 more wickets atleast tonight, NZ need 170 runs tonight atleast but at cost of 3 more wickets at Max.

 

[saiyan0312]

by taylor. Wasnt a perfect shot

 

[Justcrazy]

Another four

Taylor playing shots

 

[saiyan0312]

cut shot there

 

[saiyan0312]

Taylor can get out if he kaaps playing like this

 

[Justcrazy]

Taylor batting with Positive mind.

 

[saiyan0312]

top edge sweep.

 

[Justcrazy]

Lead 84 runs now :

 

[saiyan0312]

11 from the over. Its obvious NZ want runs but this can backfire if they give us 230 with day 5 and we go out chasing it.

 

[hussain.r97]

NZ pushing for a big lead.

 

[Mamoon]

Ordinary effort by the tail today. A 50-60 run lead and NZ would have been under great pressure.

 

[saiyan0312]

Review. zulfi didnt look convinced

 

[Big Mac]

This looks out to me

 

[saiyan0312]

Pad fi9rst

 

[saiyan0312]

[hussain.r97]

That's plumb

 

[akamaka]

[razabbas]

[hussain.r97]

Impact may be umpires call actually

 

[Big Mac]

Zulfi showing his moral fibre there

 

[saiyan0312]

[hussain.r97]

Finally a good review. Pakistan are now on top.

 

[fumaster]

[saiyan0312]

Muccullum gone and NZ under pressure .
