Pakistan v New Zealand | 3rd Test- Day 1 | Napier | 11/12/09

[saeed-sohail]

Mediocre talentless bunch.

 

[kingusama92]

Beautiful shot by Farhat. Lovely.

 

[germanboy]

Ahh ok "Bhanja" ok thats fine nothing wrong with this word.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Maybe he's very superstitious?

He shouldnt be as long as Mamoo jan is in the board..

 

[germanboy]

first lovely shot

 

[Afridi_Fan]

28/1

 

[Seen Sheen]

Best stroke of the series by Farhat

 

[octavian]

If Misbah helps both Akmals and Yousuf we can manage 200 may be.

Misbah needs to help himself first. You dont score anything by dead-blocking 100 balls straight.

 

[germanboy]

Farhat Uf Bhanja is not looking good at all at the moment.

struggling at the moment

 

[Liverpool_Faizan]

I have 100 dollars on farhat scoring a century in this match. have a decent feeling he may do it this match.

 

[germanboy]

please dont show the wicket of Salman Butt

 

[Oxy]

Waqar moves effortlessly into the comm-box

 

[germanboy]

I have 100 dollars on farhat scoring a century in this match. have a decent feeling he may do it this match.

yaar i have always these kind of feeling!

 

[bluffmasterv2]

is it me or Waqar sounds very weird today?

 

[Oxy]

Horrible loooking technique from Iqbal.

Does anyone from PCB ever watch our Top 2-3?

 

[octavian]

Bhanja getting squared up almost every ball. Damn ugly and annoying

 

[SpiritOf1903]

yaar i have always these kind of feeling!

hope against hope - 50 will suffice!

good bowler, southee

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Butt's dismissal being shown again and again and his technique being touted as "legendary" )

 

[imshally81]

hi guyz

 

[Afridi_Fan]

And looked at the pitch as if the pitch has something to do with his dismissal.

issed:

 

[Oxy]

Everyball Iqbal faces looks like it will get him

 

[germanboy]

Kyoh yaar Waqar must be happy he can fly to his wife/Aus for free this time

 

[Oxy]

hi guyz

hi

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Horrible loooking technique from Iqbal.

Does anyone from PCB ever watch our Top 2-3?

If they did would it be in this state?

 

[kingusama92]

And looked at the pitch as if the pitch has something to do with his dismissal.

issed:

Exactly.

What he should be looking at is the freakin' ball when it's bowled at him. Can't believe he played all around that.

 

[germanboy]

good shot but no timing at all

 

[ahmed16]

who said Iqbal has good footwork, they need to take a good look at his footwork, every time Iqbal bats, he gets his front foot way in front, makes him a candiddate for plumb lbw if he misses.

 

[mindless slogging]

yaar i have always these kind of feeling!

Supress them.

 

[Oxy]

"Faisal has shown some real glimpses......." - Ian Smith

Keep watching Smithy!!!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Kyoh yaar Waqar must be happy he can fly to his wife/Aus for free this time

Waqar's wife lives in Australia?

 

[germanboy]

He is better player then that for sure

 

[kingusama92]

Bowlers are going to learn really quickly.. you cannot bowl half volleys on this pitch and think you'll get away with it. Even Faisal is hitting them away.

On bowling pitches at times half volleys are even let go in fear but at Napier.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Faisal throwing his bat on every wide delivery..O bhai,its not a 20-20

 

[germanboy]

Waqar's wife lives in Australia?

yaar she lives in Aus very rich.

And some of my firends in sydney have meet waqar

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Can Faisal cross 1000 in test cricket today? Just 40 runs left.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

"Faisal has shown some real glimpses......." - Ian Smith

Keep watching Smithy!!!

Aur aagay aagay dekho hota hai kya!

 

[Gollum]

20+ Tests, average of < 30 is simply not acceptable.

 

[the Great Khan]

whats wrong with iqbals technique? havent you guys realised that this is good technique for the PCB?

 

[Oxy]

Sehwag has scored more runs in 4 innings than Faisal putter has in 10 years...

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

As Waqar said "Salman Butt played vaay too early and all around it. Looked really ugly." To think this garbage was made vice captain and was being groomed to be the next skipper.

 

[imshally81]

we have 2 SIFARSHI player in team now

1 - faisal iqbal (Bhanja)
2 - u know better

 

[Gollum]

Faisal is exactly half the player his uncle is!

 

[SpiritOf1903]

when will inzi's nephew be picked ?

 

[the Great Khan]

Bowlers are going to learn really quickly.. you cannot bowl half volleys on this pitch and think you'll get away with it. Even Faisal is hitting them away.

On bowling pitches at times half volleys are even let go in fear but at Napier.

wait till our bowlers bowl..lol..it will take them a 100 overs to figure that out!!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

yaar she lives in Aus very rich.

And some of my firends in sydney have meet waqar

I didnt know that!

 

[Inswinger]

Our top 3 average 32, 27, and 26. Living legends.I'm sure that players like Ahmed Shehzad, Azhar Ali, and Afaq Raheem can't average any worse...

 

[Afridi_Fan]

31/1

 

[Oxy]

31-1

 

[the Great Khan]

couple of short balls and bhanja will be having chai with butt!!

 

[imshally81]

444444444444444

 

[germanboy]

good shot 44

 

[Gollum]

Farhat playing some nice strokes.

 

[iZeeshan]

Well, Farhat's batting well.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[Inswinger]

wait till our bowlers bowl..lol..it will take them a 100 overs to figure that out!!

Our bowlers have bowled at a very good length during this series. Give credit when it's due.

 

[saj001]

good shot by farhat

 

[Deewana Mastana]

This top 3 lineup would get ripped apart in Australia!

 

[Seen Sheen]

Faisal is exactly half the player his uncle is!

yup,his uncle late Bashir Miandad was a good player..

 

[z2_daredevil]

Sehwag has scored more runs in 4 innings than Faisal putter has in 10 years...

) ) )
thats actually true

 

[Oxy]

Faisal is exactly half the player his uncle is!

Youve heard the saying..

"If I could be half as good as Miandad, I'd die a happy man'

Reality is FAISAL IQBAL...

 

[saj001]

Four more

 

[germanboy]

best shot 44

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Another

 

[Gollum]

Encore better than the first!

 

[bluffmasterv2]

Farhat is looking good another 4, actually he always looks good but often loses concentration when he's in 30's

 

[Inswinger]

Kiwi bowlers are serving up some pies!!

 

[imshally81]

444444444444 again

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Better shot by Ilyas Farhat for

 

[Oxy]

Farhat /Faisal

Its my worst nightmare

 

[Daytripped]

2 fours! 'Sifarshi' looking good so far.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Farhat looking good for a 32..

 

[the Great Khan]

Youve heard the saying..

"If I could be half as good as Miandad, I'd die a happy man'

Reality is FAISAL IQBAL...

the mans a living legend already!! watch his great shuffling manuever , its there to fool the bowlers!!

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

the extra bowler will help NZ knock over Pakistan a bit quicker than usual.

 

[Zaz]

Our top 3 is gonna give me nightmares leading up to aus series, prob weakest we ve ever had

and prob 2nd weakes in int cricket after nz

 

[Oxy]

Kiwi bowlers are serving up some pies!!

Which is to be expected - but makes our 1st test loss so embarassing

 

[imshally81]

should be a wide

 

[octavian]

Not swinging for Southee anymore. Good signs for us

 

[On_the_up]

39-1 isn't that bad a start

 

[germanboy]

What no wide?

i mean please this one was a wide for sure

 

[Oxy]

Tim Southee - all he has to do is ball one straight! He is crap. Butt you plonker!
