Pakistan v New Zealand | 2nd Test | Nov 17-21, 2014 | Dubai | Day 5

[Mamoon]

Lol. One wicket and we are back again.

Best young pacer without question.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Misbah is useless. Only scores runs when the Top 4 has scored runs.

When the going gets tough he chokes.

This. Most of the times, he is not good in such conditions. Remember the Zim test.

The only match winning innings I remember of him is the that in the Sharjah test.

 

[Red Devil]

Hawkeye was right IMO. The ball straightened after pitching and struck his back leg, you can clearly see that in the Gif.

 

[Hawkeye]

Misbah is useless. Only scores runs when the Top 4 has scored runs.

When the going gets tough he chokes.

Clearly ignorant about cricket and started watching yesterday.

Who on earth has always rescued the team from 50/4 since the last 3 years and always stopped collapses? And even became world's highest scorer in 2013 doing that?

Stop this ignorance.

Same goes for [MENTION=132855]Arsal_AK[/MENTION] who doesn't watch cricket and post things out of ignorance.

 

[Pak_Jazba]

We will definitely lose 3-4 overs because of light, so technically Pak needs to bat another 33-34 overs.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Best young pacer without question.

Sure.

Takes one wicket and he is the best.

I noticed how awfully quite you had gone during this series before that wicket of Misbah.

 

[Bullet Drive]

38 overs left.

 

[Ahson8]

This is a very good spell from Boult.

Surprised you didn't pick on me.

Not expecting much from a NZ pacer to do well in these conditions. Junaid does well here because he is used to bowl on dry surfaces.

It's true. Take a look at all his test centuries. They've always come when there were runs on the board.

 

[Hawkeye]

Surprised you didn't pick on me.

You at times go neutral and correctly analyze things. SO spared you.

Arsal however is always taking digs at Misbah without knowing what he's talking about.

This is tests we are talking about. Name five innings where Misbah came under pressure and played a match winning knock??

Pakistan test batting has been YK since the past four years.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan tail is a big issue.

 

[akamaka]

sarfraz looks sad, he was ready to fight for the win im sure

 

[NZcricketfan]

Why would you bring craig on.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan loosing wickets to pacers on turning pitch on day five is a worry.

 

[imshally81]

Need Some fireworks

 

[Justcrazy]

When is Tea ?

 

[Justcrazy]

Crowd coming in after Jummah prayers

 

[akamaka]

rameez omg )

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Rahat in the crowd )

 

[Justcrazy]

Four

Cover drive by Younis.

 

[saiyan0312]

3 more. glorious cover drive

 

[NZcricketfan]

Rahat in the crowd )

I mean. He is a guy and he has hair?

 

[Justcrazy]

Rameez critical of Asad technique of leaving the ball.

 

[Justcrazy]

Younis

 

[akamaka]

boom

 

[JibranAnsari]

Nz have bowled really really well , their both fast bowlers are heads and shoulders above our quick ones.

 

[saiyan0312]

WOW

 

[imshally81]

 

[JibranAnsari]

woah!

Pakistan keeping NZ interested.

 

[JibranAnsari]

33.2 overs more to go.

 

[imshally81]

165 runs in 33 overs

 

[imshally81]

Pak should go for this..

 

[Justcrazy]

33 more overs left.

 

[NZcricketfan]

I think it is going to a a draw. The game rarely goes over the official end time due to light issues.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Yar common yar this is still very doable with Sarfaraz in the wings

 

[Justcrazy]

Pak should go for this..

No way , Pakistan tail is useless.

 

[akamaka]

Yar common yar this is still very doable with Sarfaraz in the wings

yeah and sarfraz is the last recognised batsman. If they wanted to win they would've promoted sarfraz up the order (just like in that 300 chase)

 

[aukhan]

Yar common yar this is still very doable with Sarfaraz in the wings

He is Sarfraz not Super Sarfraz.

 

[Justcrazy]

Anderson to bowl now.

 

[Justcrazy]

Rameez praising kiwis for a good comeback here.

 

[JibranAnsari]

You gotta give it to nz, they bowled really well. Two unsettled openers didnt help either.

 

[Mamoon]

Yar common yar this is still very doable with Sarfaraz in the wings

Hahaha.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Lol boult is messing up his rythm byy masking the ball.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Hahaha.

You always ruin it early - should've waited for 10 more mins

 

[JibranAnsari]

6 wickets to get in 31 overs.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Feeling bad for taufeeq , his last test match probably.

All these years he was out for guys like butt and farhat.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Afridi 48 innings 52 sixes

 

[Mamoon]

With this attitude there is no hope for the future.

 

[imshally81]

 

[Asif321]

if pak are 190-4 after 62 overs then its possible

 

[saiyan0312]

 

[saiyan0312]

sorry WOW

 

[imshally81]

again

 

[saiyan0312]

Why is Muccullum bowling craig. Seriously younis is destroying him with ease

 

[JibranAnsari]

And tea.

28 overs to go.Nz needs to something special here.

 

[imshally81]

Tea

 

[Sherlock]

So, anyway.....!

 

[saiyan0312]

TEA!!! after it we only have to survive 1.5 hours. Lets do this guys

 

[imshally81]

And tea.

28 overs to go.Nz needs to something special here.

Same for Pak

 

[imshally81]

147 in 28 overs !!

 

[Asif321]

do you still pakistan would go for win

 

[Bullet Drive]

6 an over needed. Possibly with YK, Shafiq and Sarfaraz.

150 runs between them.

50 more runs to each.

YK 80.

Shafiq 60.

Sarfaraz 50.

We will win this test match boys.

 

[Sherlock]

I don't think we'll get to see the full 28 overs. I think they'll cut off a few overs early if Pakistan ain't already batting with the tail.

 

[Bullet Drive]

If we win, this will be remarkable.

 

[Bullet Drive]

I don't think we'll get to see the full 28 overs. I think they'll cut off a few overs early if Pakistan ain't already batting with the tail.

147 from 24 overs. We should look at it like that.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Take it to 80 off the last 15.

 

[Bullet Drive]

This is where an Umar Akmal would come in handy.

 

[Bullet Drive]

With kind of form Sarfaaraz is in. This should b done

 

[Arsal_AK]

YK palying a different match than others. Pure class.

Asad needs to go at 50 atleast.

 

[mmkextreme_1]

This is where an Umar Akmal would come in handy.

If he batted sensibly, I would agree. Since he doesn't..we all know what the eventual outcome would be

 

[Yossarian]

28 overs remaining. Max time remaining 1hr 30 min. (additional 30 mins not allowed on 5th day, plus bad light stopped play at 17:21 yesterday). So, realistically, only 22 - 23 overs max will be bowled in the time remaining.

 

[Aman]

Pakistan still a chance, continuing with Craig is just suicidal.

 

[Sherlock]

This is where an Umar Akmal would come in handy.

Or, he'd be one of the first players out.

All "ifs" and "buts".

 

[AlCapone]

We should go for the win, it doesn't matter if we lose in the process.

 

[Sherlock]

28 overs remaining. Max time remaining 1hr 30 min. (additional 30 mins not allowed on 5th day, plus bad light stopped play at 17:21 yesterday). So, realistically, only 22 - 23 overs max will be bowled in the time remaining.

Thanks Yossarian.

 

[Shafi]

If we go for win we most probably loose this match considering our last four players together can not survive 20 balls.

 

[Sherlock]

We should go for the win, it doesn't matter if we lose in the process.

Misbah is the captain. I don't think so.
