Pakistan v New Zealand | Napier | 3rd Test - Day 3 | 13/12/09

[KA$H]

no intensity from pak this morning - just going thro teh motions

 

[pak4life]

finally an effort ball from Guly

 

[kingusama92]

What's wrong with Gul?

Bowling non-stop garbage to Tuffey. Pitch it up man.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

How the hell will a short ball fetch him a wicket is beyond me.

 

[KA$H]

gawd vetorri seeing the ball like a beach ball here

 

[saj001]

man this is depressing , **** bastmen like vettori dancing around the wicket

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Gul is useless in test cricket. Where is the fight Pakistan? Bunch of girls this team ATM.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Another short one. issed:

 

[90MPH]

Short short short by Gul. Kick him out of the test team. He is fast becoming the next Sami.

 

[KA$H]

What's wrong with Gul?

Bowling non-stop garbage to Tuffey. Pitch it up man.

he's trying to get him on teh back foot - instead its just an easy single

 

[shabbu1]

There doesn't seem to be a plan Gul is bowling to..just banging it in waist height allowing the easy single

 

[Gollum]

Gul is on a lean patch since the T20 finals. Its starting to hurt Pakistan badly.

 

[tauseefm]

Guess who has planned the first hour?

 

[iHammad]

Pretty stupid field settings man.

 

[Lightning]

disgraceful fast bowling from a Pak quickie this Gul. Not bowling to his strengths.

 

[kingusama92]

he's trying to get him on teh back foot - instead its just an easy single

It's all fine and dandy but once you see it's not working then it's best to change your strategy up.

He's persistent on the short stuff and it's clearly not working.

 

[pak4life]

the oye oye have also stopped lol

 

[SpiritOf1903]

 

[shabbu1]

Tuffey spanks a four. Yeesh

 

[octavian]

any news on aamer guys?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

50 partnership

 

[KA$H]

poor feilding from muhammed yousuf there

 

[tauseefm]

I don't understand everybody, i have been defending Gul and you have been bashing him.. JUST GIVE ME ALL 3 bowlers stats for the current series period. ITS A PHATA PICTCH for GOD SAKE if Farhat can score a 100 why can't other players.

 

[Lightning]

Missing an out and out quickie to knock the tail over. But then again most teams are struggling with that these days.

 

[HuZi]

shott

 

[iafzal]

our genious captain has a good plan for Pak.
Get thrashed all over the place

 

[HuZi]

Dropped Gull!

 

[tauseefm]

Get thrashed all over the place

Inzi bhai nay rat ko phone ker kay yehi bataya tha.

 

[iHammad]

Another one dropped?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

And it falls in no man's land.

 

[saj001]

feel like crying

 

[Lightning]

Players looking pretty tired here. No test cricket and then 3 back to back in weeks will do that.

 

[tauseefm]

feel like crying

nawaan aya hay soneyaan?

 

[KA$H]

any news on aamer guys?

not really - waqar said he suffers from some kind of fever caught from mosquitos, but its not malaria

basically its some kind of recurring thing, thta bad food migth have brought on

basically i dont think waqar knows what it is - apart from its not an injury

 

[iafzal]

balay balay what fielding?

 

[ahsanib]

Yeah I don't understand the criticism against the bowlers. They're trying their hardest. It's really not their fault that our BS batting has managed to cross 300 once in the entire series, and that there were 3 ducks in the middle order on a pancake pitch.

400 is a par score on this wicket, maybe even 450. Anything above that, blame the bowlers. But not until then.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Khuda key liye. Who says even that was a drop?

 

[don1990]

pakistan looking helpless there....

 

[90MPH]

what ? The worst thing you can do is keep bowling short on a PHATA PITCH.
At least pitch the ball up and make them drive. If they drive away from the body you may get a nick or spoon a catch or even get lbws and bowled.

Gul should stick to 20/20.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

why can't we wear gloves ? failing that form a national baseball team :iamlegend

Most of the posters have recently started watching test cricket so there is no point get mad on them yaar.(btw mujay bhi bara gusa aa raha hay in per )

 

[KA$H]

Gul kept on - lets see how he bowls to tuffey now

 

[Lightning]

Jeez. This is poor test level bowling from a supposed fast bowler. No wicket taking deliveries yet... Just not threatening enough.

 

[Gollum]

Gul is bowling to a lost plan. These short pitch balls will not get batsmen out, but take away energy and increase frustration.

 

[iafzal]

Khuda key liye. Who says even that was a drop?

no it was not, he just did not even go for it so how can it be a drop?

just tell me the stats of the current series? we will know how bad he is bowling.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Let them bat. Kab tak karin gay? Kabhi tu apni baari aaye gi na

 

[tauseefm]

Let them bat. Kab tak karin gay? Kabhi tu apni baari aaye gi na

jub apni bari aye gi to straight ball bhi hilti hoi nazar aye gi

 

[Gollum]

just tell me the stats of the current series? we will know how bad he is bowling.

Umar Gul 3* 5 101.0 22 346 8 3/41 5/170 43.25 3.42 75.7 0 0 0

8 wickets at 43.25

 

[90MPH]

I am talking about today, right now. He has overall been the least effective bowler overall in this series.

 

[saj001]

nawaan aya hay soneyaan?

yes on PP but life long pakistan supporter

 

[Afridi_Fan]

God ok. I'm speechless.

what about amir and Asif's stats ?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[iHammad]

 

[HuZi]

first ball asif 118 km/h

 

[shabbu1]

Asif bowling at a super fast 118kph

 

[iafzal]

I think Asif is the one who will be able to take the wickets

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Ok yaar maaf kero. is the best test bowler in the history of the game. Happy?

 

[mindless slogging]

Aamer had Jaundice and Dingle fever apparently.

Now look at the stats and tell me whats wrong here for 3rd seamer? he has bowled 101 overs so far in the 2 and half test matches after asif and took 8 wickets with a little high avg but its good enough in test match. Wickets r not enough but still respectable.

 

[iHammad]

Great ball Kaneria. But 4

 

[shabbu1]

Danny unlucky, that spun in and missed the top of off stump!

 

[Gollum]

Ripper from Dani Boy!

Some of us said. They like to watch dramas few days back.

 

[90MPH]

Ripper by Danish, unlucky not to get Vettori.
