McCullum taking game away from us with his stroke play...can somebody get him out plz..

I think only he can get himself out now...we are incapable at the moment

yes yes yes. But still we are just getting edgy because of our weak batting lineup. a lead of 100 will just screw us up big time

We need one more bowler to support these four. They have been doing the donkey work from the very first test match.
 
This pair took away the first game with the help of our fielders and now they are taking the game away with the help of bowlers.

with this fragile batting line up? I don't think so

i meant an alrounder. if you look at our stats bowlers have contributed more with the bat then batsmen
 
I think we are at our lowest point (even lower than first inning crash) of the match...
 
That's why we should always play one all rounder- Razzaq, Afridi or Yasir. This match is gone if AMeer gets sick.
 
All one can say is our batting is a disgrace as 400 was a par score. Bowlers are blameless here.

If we lose this series it is our worst defeat in test cricket for a very long time as this NZ team is avg.

Where is Gul?


He bowled a lot of over with the old ball before the new ball was taken, but I think he should have been bowling instead of Kaneria.
 
I try to think what Imran and Miandad will do in such situation. I think they will make changes every 3 overs. Rotate bowlers and change their ends, back and forth, round and round. Here captin is not even trying.

Oh don't be such a drama queen. This pitch is notorious for being one of the flattest in the world, the first innings was much more humiliating than having the opposition 266/5
 
I guesstimate they will have a lead of minimum 150, it will be a mountain for our batting order...

Not only failing in first innings but going into the match with just 4 bowlers, out of them one walking out and we are left with 3.
 
Its up to Danish he is the only one looking like geing a wicket

I'll be happy if they're just 150 ahead
 
McCUllum is now toying with our bowling..Its extremely sad to see things getting turned around for NZ after we dominated the 1st two sessions...
 
McCullum is playing by moving well outside off and the pitch. Asif and MoYo need to come up with a plan for this. Slight field modification, and Asif to bowl slightly fuller at/around the middle stump.

Down faces, sun beating down, batsmen having a ball, one bowler short, spin bowling the new ball, huge deficit looming....yes confirmed we are at our lowest point!

Itnay buray haalaat! We have to count on Danish. I do not think he has ever won a match, that is because he gives 100 runs before taking wicket. It will be too late when he gets sufficient wickets.
 
well they played good. They attacked our bowler when the going got tough. I give them credit. I don't see much ope now, May be a glimmer of hope we hold the lead to under 100

You can't use the fact that someone might feel ill as a main factor in deciding if you pick 4 bowlers or 5.

lead of 150 is on for sure
 
This is how test cricket is guys! ups and downs..there might still be a twist, don't give up hope. 3 more days left.
 
its looking ridicolously easy no swing for asif gul should come back otherwise newzealand are going build on a real healthy lead

And when you do then it is called farsightedness. Yousuf was right to defend Malik, he is a handy bowler.
 
Pakistan are slowing it down...what's going on....this is bad sportsmanship I think...even as Pakistan supporter

It is ok, take a step back, re-group and then attack. Let MoYo think.
 
Kaneria has to come up when Asif is bowling to Mcclum
 
cut singels to vertori. Faisal Iqbal can bowl maybe give him bowling ? should had played with a allrounder
 
How is everyone doing? I have come here to cheer you up :P

Both Malik and faisal have looked out of sorts so Yasir really should have played aamer is sick we will struggle to defend even 400 in 4th inns
