I don't like his frame of mind right now

Yousuf has probably given him firm instructions to play defensively which is not his game

Should he see a ball in the slot, he should hit it.
Hes struggling batting like this.

Misbah is intent on boring the Kiwis into submission. What a plan!!!

a 3

 

[abdulkhan786]

8 runs from 1st 4 overs......have to score much faster if we have any chance of win

 

[Inswinger]

So Vettori doesn't shave during a Test match? He was clean-shaven at the start of this match.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Nathan from New Zealand wonders: "Will Pakistan make a challnging declaration and will NZ take that challenge. Then we will have an interesting game. else they can play a defensive game so that they will not lose. When you play not to lose the tests become boring and have lost its glamour."

man's a genius

 

[Inswinger]

4 RPO shouldn't be too difficult.

 

[insaaniyat]

Looks like we are heading for a draw

Breaking news: Misbah looks to play attacking shot.

oh no sorry that was Akmal.

you do realise its a parody ?

 

[McBoom]

Miss. Bah should get out now.

We need quick runs.

 

[Gollum]

Misbah looks reassuring when playing defensively. He must play at the MCG Dec 26th.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Umar sledging - he's learny quick!

 

[saj001]

HAHA

Umar : I'm Not ready

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

what just happened? what did Akmal say? highlight of the day!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

[kingusama92]

Umar Akmal's response... ) ) )

Awesome.

What does my post show?

 

[Gollum]

Misbah looks reassuring when playing defensively. He must play at the MCG Dec 26th.

On the other hand, Umar looks twitchy and out of zone when playing defensively. He must play his natural game.

Search it on Google.

Do i have to download a SW?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Breaking news: akmal jr plays the 1st maiden not Misbah.

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

Misbah looking to secure spot for 26th Dec.

 

[azfar wali]

If Pakistan wants to win we should bat at about 4 to 6 runs per over till lunch than get them out in two sessions but its not going to be that easy

 

[Inswinger]

Misbah looking to secure spot for 26th Dec.

Butt, Farhat, and Faisal already have. Why should he miss out?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Kaneria listening to some music.

 

[Gollum]

It's a delicate situation right now, we just can't afford to lose a wicket for at least an hour.

 

[srh]

Its people like Misbah who make test cricket boring.

 

[12thMan]

Kaneria listening to some music.

He could be listening to GEO to find out the latest Ufone, Mobilink or Zong's SMS nightly rates

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Oh ho

 

[McBoom]

If Pakistan plans to win this match then Akmal must run out Misbah.

 

[ali110]

Misbah looks reassuring when playing defensively. He must play at the MCG Dec 26th.

yeah dream on .... He can't defend if we really need him to play defensive game. This match is almost now safe ,thanks to good opening plus bhanja and MOYO contributions, not to mention useful runs from Akmals. If we are in trouble, he will be back in the dressing room in no time.

 

[saj001]

What was umar doin?

 

[azfar wali]

It's a delicate situation right now, we just can't afford to lose a wicket for at least an hour.

there isn't much difference between a lose and draw but a big difference between a win and lose so we should at least try to get the win and if we lose a wicket we can just play slowly.

 

[Seen Sheen]

:umarakmal doesnt seem to be middling the ball today!

 

[z2_daredevil]

if misbah gets out rite noe allah na karay ten all of u would be after his life

JUS LET THE GUY PLAY !!!

 

[Inswinger]

O'Brien trying to rile up Umar.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Some drops of rain

 

[161]

If Pakistan plans to win this match then Akmal must run out Misbah.

this match is not winnable.

draw or loss are the only probabilities.

 

[Juggernaut]

Looks like Akmal junior really wants to get out.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Rain is getting heavier

 

[Momo]

Rain rain go away
Come again another day

 

[azfar wali]

should at least try to rotate the strike

 

[saqlain]

A very cautious start by Pakistan and rightfully. Lets see off the few overs and then try to go in the scoring mode. I guess it is going according to the plan as of yet.

 

[Gollum]

there isn't much difference between a lose and draw but a big difference between a win and lose so we should at least try to get the win and if we lose a wicket we can just play slowly.

Are you kidding not enough difference between losing and draw? We lose the match we lose the series! We draw the game, we share even honours!

Single to Jr

 

[Zaz]

Umar needs to put the hoicks away, wot is he playing at?

 

[McBoom]

this match is not winnable.

draw or loss are the only probabilities.

Kiwi batting is as vulnerable to pressure as Pakistan's. Even if we have 180-200 runs lead we are in with a big chance if we have enough overs today.

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

These two are really going slow - also raining right now
