Pakistan v New Zealand | 3rd Test | Nov 26 - Dec 1, 2014 | Sharjah | Day 3

[Sakss]

After a brilliant day 2 New Zealand will be looking to take the lead on Day 3. Can Pakistan turn it around to get back in the match

 

[PB]

I wonder how much they'll end up getting if they were to bat 100 overs at the same rate...

Has 500-600 ever been achieved in 100 overs?

 

[aukhan]

Wah! 4 fours already.

 

[Bilal7]

Why is happening? Why?

Everything was so nice in Pakistan cricket and suddenly, McCullum comes to the party and crashes it.

 

[hur rizvi]

This is complete owning, we have never been owned like this before atleast in asia

 

[hur rizvi]

Going at 10 RPO this morning

 

[arehaan]

Misbah why on earth would you give the first over of the day to the worst bowler who is short on confidence

 

[FreeBird]

lol haha.
NZ playing T20

How crappy of a bowling and dead of a dead wicket is this? Or is it just too of a batting? Or perhaps a combination of all three?

Hafeez should have scored 500 on this wicket but his 197 has been devalued here.

 

[hur rizvi]

Why would you start with Talha

 

[Mir jibran]

talha has been destroyed today

 

[hur rizvi]

I wonder how will our players cope with such an owning, this is career shattering ownage on show

 

[FreeBird]

Why would you start with Talha

That's the captain for you.

 

[Tera Gawaandi]

IMO Pakistan should not lose a review, Umpire gave it leg bye on field and it influenced Misbah to go for a LBW review. Its unfair, loophole in rules.

completely agree, when umpires decision is wrong team should not lose review

 

[desi_launda]

Last over 281/1

 

[Anchorman]

McCullum is giving me Multan flashbacks.

 

[hur rizvi]

This should easily end 2 careers

Talha and Zulfi babar

 

[Tera Gawaandi]

Some of Williamson's strokes have trademark Tendulkar written on them, especially that point boundary on rising delivery.

 

[hur rizvi]

McCullum is giving me Multan flashbacks.

This is even better than multan, at Multan sehwag got a few chances, McCullum has played almost a chance free innings at 100+ S/R

 

[PB]

Has a bowler ever gone at 8.5 runs per over in his first 10 overs in TEST cricket?

 

[PB]

Finally gone back to Test mode.

 

[aukhan]

McCullum is giving me Multan flashbacks.

That was some epic phainty by Sehwag :'(

 

[aukhan]

What is Talha's pace? please tell?

 

[desi_launda]

Has a bowler ever gone at 8.5 runs per over in his first 10 overs in TEST cricket?

maybe Vinay Kumar at Perth?

 

[Friend786]

wasim akram's record of sixes in a test innings looks in danger. 12 sixes is the record.

 

[Saurav]

This is complete owning, we have never been owned like this before atleast in asia

didnt watch Sehwag?

 

[PB]

maybe Vinay Kumar at Perth?

That was 5.5 Runs per over. That is nothing compared to this phainty.

 

[Lords]

They have picked up from where they left yesterday.

 

[Tera Gawaandi]

Outcomes that lovely shot again, Williamson is class.

 

[desi_launda]

98*

 

[hur rizvi]

didnt watch Sehwag?

Nah this is better than that, you guys scored at around 4 RPO as a team

This is out of the world ownage

 

[DarkKnightRisesAgain]

This is what you get for defensive and negative mindset on a dead track from day 1, Misbah and Co deserve the punishment they are receiving, Had they chased down 250 in 70+ overs, atleast series would have been in the bag but No, they are happy preserving their 1-0 lead all the way through the series, Now guess what Kiwis won't stand back and deliver the punch.

 

[FreeBird]

Would be a nice challenge for Hafeez, Younus and Misbah to win if NZ could post 700 runs by tea today.

 

[Anchorman]

This is even better than multan, at Multan sehwag got a few chances, McCullum has played almost a chance free innings at 100+ S/R

That was some epic phainty by Sehwag :'(

I agree. I remember Sehwag was dropped a couple of times. This is a level of phainty that hasn't been seen in ages against us.

 

[FreeBird]

+ 1

 

[Friend786]

Highest 2nd wicket partnership for NZ test matches ever.

 

[Anchorman]

I must confess I enjoyed these two take on the bowlers yesterday; it was a refreshing change. However, now I'm just getting scared for us.

 

[Tera Gawaandi]

What a shot, 100 to Williamson.

 

[Bilal7]

So glad I'm not watching this right now. I'll get back to reading and wake up tomorrow, hoping for the best.

 

[leatherface58]

:100 for Williamson!

Finally lives up to his talent.

 

[hur rizvi]

Why are we bowling talha continuously here

 

[ViciousMachine]

Well played KW. Dont lose heart Pak! We have played great for over 4 tests. Just need to stop bowling short and get a couple of wickets and get back in it.

 

[Friend786]

This is surely Talha's last test match.

 

[hur rizvi]

This is one of those ownage, which will have big long term effect

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Even Sir Ishant is a much better bowler than express pacer talha. Going at 8.5 an over

 

[hur rizvi]

Trail by under 50

at this rate lead will be above 100 by lunch

 

[FreeBird]

So glad I'm not watching this right now. I'll get back to reading and wake up tomorrow, hoping for the best.

lol haha - scared and defensive. Just like your hero Misbah's approach to cricket.

As right put for you here...

I want NZ to score 800 before end of the day and declare.

It will be juicy challenge for Pak "senior" batsmen to win or even draw the game.

 

[ViciousMachine]

It shouldn't. Pakistani fans are just delusional. We have DOMINATED 3 out of the last 4 tests we played, and even the 4th you could argue we were ahead.

People are just insane if they expect that kind of domination to continue forever. You are not playing against Cuba in cricket. Eventually your opposition will have a good game as well.

Pak just need to control the RR a bit.

 

[Friend786]

I still don't understand why the heck was imran khan dropped ?

 

[hur rizvi]

We are neither stopping singles, nor stopping boundaries

 

[FreeBird]

Triple centuries for McCullum and Kane before end of the day.

Go NZ !!

 

[hur rizvi]

This is ownage against Pakistan like never sen before

Mark my words: Heads will roll after this match

 

[Anchorman]

Yasir Shah is an absolutely brilliant fielder.

 

[hur rizvi]

For sake of fun give ball to Azhar ali for a bit

 

[Friend786]

bring on hafeez for god sake.

 

[Tera Gawaandi]

Commentator - NZ practicing for upcoming T20s.

 

[Lords]

I thin by the end of today NZ will take a lead of 300 runs if no collapse happen

 

[FreeBird]

Yasir Shah is an absolutely brilliant fielder.

The best fielder in Pak team as of now is Asad Shafiq

 

[ViciousMachine]

This is ownage against Pakistan like never sen before

Then clearly you did not watch the 2020 series and ODI series vs Aus just before the tests. Or us losing to Ireland in a World Cup!! Or losing a test match to Zimbabwe? But you are clearly a drama based person.

Lets see what happens, lots to play still.

 

[Anchorman]

Need to bring Talha back into the attack. He will surely pick up a wicket.

 

[PTI]

Why the field is so spread out? What are we going to achieve by this?
Lets try to stop singles.Let them take chances.

 

[Tera Gawaandi]

That's why 2 Test series are meaningless, no time for touring teams to adapt.

 

[PTI]

Why the ball stopped bouncing and turning.
When we started batting yesterday morning the ball was spinning and bouncing.

 

[Anchorman]

The best fielder in Pak team as of now is Asad Shafiq

Good shout. Yasir is really quick across the ground and diving comes natural to him.

 

[Friend786]

i can't believe we got out on this pitch for so cheaply.

 

[akki]

dis knocks reminds me of the sehwag's knock of 293 and 319 sumthing against murlidarhan and company and south africa..complete destruction.

I repeat we have never ever been owned like that from time when i started watching cricket

 

[FreeBird]

Need to bring Talha back into the attack. He will surely pick up a wicket.

I would love to see six sixes in an over in a test match.

 

[ViciousMachine]

I repeat we have never ever been owned like that from time when i started watching cricket

And I repeat, you clearly do not watch much cricket....

 

[hur rizvi]

Why the ball stopped bouncing and turning.
When we started batting yesterday morning the ball was spinning and bouncing.

We gifted away our wickets yesterday, NZ bowlers didnt bowl any wicket taking deliveries

 

[hur rizvi]

And I repeat, you clearly do not watch much cricket....

I havent missed a Pkistan match since 1996

Anyways i respect whatever your opinion is

 

[FreeBird]

I repeat we have never ever been owned like that from time when i started watching cricket

That's what? Jan 2014 ?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

I repeat we have never ever been owned like that from time when i started watching cricket

Refer Australia series 2002 when AUS won a match in just 2 days. Now that was complete ownage.

 

[hur rizvi]

That's what? Jan 2014 ?

Quote me with some stats if i am wrong i would accept my mistake, when was the last time PAkistan conceded almost 300 runs in 50 overs of test match innings?

 

[hur rizvi]

Refer Australia series 2002 when AUS won a match in just 2 days. Now that was complete ownage.

Talking about Ownage of bowling attack here, batting 1st even 350 is a decent score

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Talking about Ownage of bowling attack here, batting 1st even 350 is a decent score

Oh ok then. Maybe one of Sehwag's innings then. I remember we were something like 400 odd for the loss of one wicket or something in 2006

 

[hur rizvi]

has Pakistan ever conceded more than 5.5 runs per over in an innings in a test match where opposition scored more than 300?

People are underestimating this ownage here

 

[hur rizvi]

Oh ok then. Maybe one of Sehwag's innings then. I remember we were something like 400 odd for the loss of one wicket or something in 2006

Nah that innings had Run Rate of just 4.17

 

[FamousEleven]

What is Afridi doing here?
