[Mamoo_cricket]

DRS trolled big time

 

[imshally81]

Zulfi showing his moral fibre there

hahahahaa )

 

[razabbas]

Anderson chal gaya to waat lag jaige

 

[saiyan0312]

88/3.... need to choke taylor with some turners from yasir.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Taylor has come out all guns blazing, now 3 wickets have fallen will we see a change of tact from him?

kiwis in trouble now.

 

[Mamoo_cricket]

By the look of it hobbits for once have decided to give a shoot to win even at cost of a defeat, which will be likely outcome if they keep this approach,

 

[Amjid Javed]

3 more wickets off 28 overs and we can think about maybe forcing a win.

 

[saiyan0312]

overthrow. come on guys!!!

Taylor was cutting like a atail ender here

 

[Ahson8]

Wow that was just a beauty.

 

[razabbas]

wow what a delivery yasir shah you the beauty

 

[saiyan0312]

i knew he would get out like that. Off the rough and leg break and bowled!!!!

 

[hussain.r97]

Bowled him!! Pakistan all over NZ here!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Corey gone as well, good ball from Yasir, Kiwis in the dumps now!

 

[Sam18696]

Looks like this game might have a result after all.

 

[akamaka]

Anything Sodhi can do, i can do better :yshah1

 

[Amjid Javed]

good plan to give the over throw and get taylor off strike.

 

[Big Mac]

 

[imshally81]

Yessssssssssssss...

 

[Amjid Javed]

Need to go for the kill here and inparticular get Taylor out. once a game become a 1 inns shoot out the 3rd inns of the game always becomes the tricky one.

 

[saiyan0312]

With that spin the lefties arent going to last long.

 

[khalil1986]

Terrific delivery from Yasir.

 

[dhump]

Anything Sodhi can do, i can do better :yshah1

Sodhi can actually bat, I have a feeling his batting is better than his bowing.

 

[Mamoo_cricket]

Another leftie in, should be another easy wicket for Yasir, and so much for the theory "ball spinning in easier to play than spinning away"

 

[hussain.r97]

The wicket delivery is exactly why Yasir needs to flight the ball up a bit.

 

[saiyan0312]

superman backing by yasir shah. We are all rhodes today!!!!!!

 

[Mamoon]

Blades away, this is looking good now.

 

[Mamoon]

Yasir first 5 fer/6 fer coming up.

 

[Saurav]

Corey is proving to be useless in longer format,is there no specialist batsmen who can play spin [MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION]

 

[hussain.r97]

Corey is proving to be useless in longer format,is there no specialist batsmen who can play spin [MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION]

Williamson is a good player of spin, and Latham proved he is too. Rosco is generally good against spin, struggles a little vs the SLA though.

 

[Mamoon]

Taylor the key wicket here.

 

[saiyan0312]

I think NZ may try for a draw now.

 

[Mamoon]

Messi needs to bowl a few sliders to Rosco.

 

[saiyan0312]

That turned. lucky it hit the pad for neesham

 

[Saurav]

Williamson is a good player of spin, and Latham proved he is too. Rosco is generally good against spin, struggles a little vs the SLA though.

I meant in domestics as a replacement for Corey

 

[saiyan0312]

there by taylor.

 

[Aman]

I meant in domestics as a replacement for Corey

Ryder.

 

[Aman]

Pakistan bowling well, all we need is one 100 run stand to draw this game

 

[m.shah]

102/4

 

[hussain.r97]

I meant in domestics as a replacement for Corey

Don't there is anyone at this stage. Little is known of NZ domestics because of lack of coverage. Ideally McCullum should be at 5 in place of Corey, while someone else opens. Ryder should be back in the team IMO.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

102/4

??

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Anytime now....wicket coming

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Why is Shaan playing again - Can't bat, doesn't ball, cant field

 

[dhump]

Why is Shaan playing again - Can't bat, doesn't ball, cant field

Any ideas how to drop him during the match ? plus he is a good fielder.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Will we chase a 200 total?

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Any ideas how to drop him during the match ? plus he is a good fielder.

You do understand that we will eventually go into the final innings with practically 0/2 down with Shaan and Taufeeq opening for us.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Will we chase a 200 total?

I doubt there will be enough time, but if there is then yes.

 

[Justcrazy]

100 up now

 

[Justcrazy]

Why is Shaan playing again - Can't bat, doesn't ball, cant field

Not much option.[emoji52]

 

[Bullet Drive]

Taylor lookning dangerous.

 

[Justcrazy]

You do understand that we will eventually go into the final innings with practically 0/2 down with Shaan and Taufeeq opening for us.

Be positive man

 

[Yatoo]

Anything above 200 will be dangerous

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hope Shaan can come good.

Surely that's what we as PAK fans should be hoping

 

[Justcrazy]

112 runs lead now .

 

[Xoib]

last thing we need is an inform Taylor. Pakistan need to wrap this in next 60 runs or Misbah will go for a draw.

 

[Justcrazy]

Draw is most likely result here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Anything above 200 will be dangerous

Only when Pakistan go for it .[emoji109]

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Be positive man

Need to show more ruthlessness

 

[dhump]

You do understand that we will eventually go into the final innings with practically 0/2 down with Shaan and Taufeeq opening for us.

I am afraid so too, but I still don't know of any rule that allow a team to drop certain player during an on going test.

 

[Justcrazy]

Hope Shaan can come good.

Surely that's what we as PAK fans should be hoping

If he is not good why is he in squad ?

 

[m.shah]

Taylor is playing well

 

[Justcrazy]

Beautiful cut shot , four.

 

[dhump]

Not much option.[emoji52]

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Let the man talk lol

 

[Justcrazy]

Do not think Kiwis would be rolled away , there tail is good.

 

[dhump]

will taylor score a match winning ton here ?? I have a feeling he will surely.

 

[Yatoo]

Back to back

 

[Justcrazy]

Taylor doing well here , positive approach helping them .

 

[Bullet Drive]

Taylor playing a match winning knock.

He could do something special here and kill our chances.

 

[Justcrazy]

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Let the man talk lol

What do you mean ?

 

[Bullet Drive]

If he is not good why is he in squad ?

He is very good.

 

[Justcrazy]

will taylor score a match winning ton here ?? I have a feeling he will surely.

Pakistan should easily bat out 90 overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

He is very good.

You need to have a good bench strength. There will be injuries. You need players to step up.

 

[Shafi]

Poor performance by Adil, He will be disaster in ODI.

 

[Justcrazy]

I think both teams looking at draw at this point of time.

 

[Justcrazy]

Poor performance by Adil, He will be disaster in ODI.

That is why he is not in squad [emoji5]

 

[dhump]

Pakistan should easily bat out 90 overs.

Well we are not yet tested in recent past on 5th day wicket and added pressure of chasing runs.

Fragile tail 2 bad openers not easy task for 4 batsman to do it.

 

[Justcrazy]

Just short !!!

 

[Justcrazy]

Zulfi getting reallybexcited.

 

[Justcrazy]

Well we are not yet tested in recent past on 5th day wicket and added pressure of chasing runs.

Lets see [emoji41]

 

[Mainul]

The wicket delivery is exactly why Yasir needs to flight the ball up a bit.

WAO! It looks like almost 50% of the wicket has been turned into a rough patch.Yasir and Zulfi must be enjoying this.

 

[dhump]

Well actually this is quite sad but just struck me NewZealand need to take just 5 wickets to play Pakistan out.

YK,Misbah,Azhar,Shafiq and Sarfraz others are up for grab.
