[Deewana Mastana]

Big jobs on their shoulders, they've seen Tuffey battle it out, Vettori battling through and McCullum aswell so no excuses lads! Come on Pakistan needs you 2 to battle it out there.

InshahAllah all the best Pakistan!

Pitch looking a minefield - when Pak bat!

[Inswinger]

We survived the opening over. Pass the sweets.

 

[insaaniyat]

we can't get bogged down though. Need to keep scoring also.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

may be not. But this time around we need to do it. forget about the lead.

I know what you mean hope it happens this time!

 

[iafzal]

well played 1st over

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Butt off the mark with 2 runs

 

[Gollum]

Nervous couple by Butt.

 

[Oxy]

Playing across the line again - Butt.

Madness

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Whats he doing?! Playing with half the bat there its dangerous BUTTY

Straight bat se khel na!

 

[Digital]

Butt = Nervous

 

[insaaniyat]

salman doesn't look comfy there

 

[12thMan]

Whats he doing?! Playing with half the bat there its dangerous BUTTY...

Not for a professional stuntman

 

[Digital]

BUTT poor foot work...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Butt hasnt changed anything from his 1st innings shot selection

Same mistakes again playing with half the bat and all

 

[Vegitto1]

butt should play in his odi mode. take about 200 balls to get his 100

 

[insaaniyat]

Whats he doing?! Playing with half the bat there its dangerous BUTTY

Straight bat se khel na!

well THAT'S BUTT FOR US

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Not for a professional stuntman

Absolutely not!

 

[Gollum]

Butt looks like a wicket on a platter.

 

[Kamranz]

I have a feeling one of these will be out before they reach 50's.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

7-0 after 2 overs

 

[insaaniyat]

Butt hasnt changed anything from his 1st innings shot selection

Same mistakes again playing with half the bat and all

Didn't he say in his interview, he will not change anything about his batting?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

well THAT'S BUTT FOR US

Do they even know what playing with a straight bat is?!

 

[luvthegame]

so far sensible batting..nothing in the pitch..as long they dont play bad shots..Pak can Inshallah make a good score...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Didn't he say in his interview, he will not change anything about his batting?

Don Bradman jo hai!

 

[Vegitto1]

tbh, there shouldnt be any pressure on Butt and Faraht because they know that they are going to play no matter what coz of their sifarish. So how about bat without being nervous.

 

[tauseefm]

Whoever score less then 80 should be treated following...

HOW DOES SALMAN BUTT KEEP'S GETTING SELECTED?? Special contacts??

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Positive running for once?!

 

[insaaniyat]

Don Bradman jo hai!

lol

 

[Oxy]

How about Butt get a banana shaped Bat to assist these shots he is playing...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

[Salazar]

-241/0 after 2 overs right now.

Pakistan needs to play the whole day today, make the deficit 0 by the end of today at the loss of a maximum of 2 or 3 wickets.

They then need to play out the whole of the fourth day, and set a target of around 320-330 for New Zealand to chase on the last day, with the Pakistani bowling attack attacking the stumps after a well- rested 2 days.

So pakistan needs to bat out this third and fourth day, and make a score of around 550.

Question is, can the brittle Pakistani batting line up achieve this?

 

[Kriketer]

openers should try to break even with the lead before OBrien comes to bowl.

 

[insaaniyat]

-

HOW DOES SALMAN BUTT KEEP'S GETTING SELECTED?? Special contacts??

he has the same last name as Mr. Ejaz Butt

 

[iafzal]

-

HOW DOES SALMAN BUTT KEEP'S GETTING SELECTED?? Special contacts??

Relative high up in the army

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Why are these 2 shouting "NO NO" so much?! Are they that desperate to run after playing every ball?!

 

[tauseefm]

Don Bradman jo hai!

isn't playing yaar

a good plan. The question is, can we do it?

 

[Oxy]

So my 1st bet of the day:

Who will run who out?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Waqar comes into commentary!

Are you talking about Pakistan or Aus?

 

[Digital]

Southee gttng some swing...

 

[Kamranz]

I wish my Dad was in the PCB: I'd have played for Pakistan also

LOL Would let PP talent in slowly.

 

[12thMan]

Run rate is pretty low. They need about 100 runs a session

 

[Deewana Mastana]

isn't playing yaar

Doosra to hai na! The one 'WE' were referring to!

 

[Digital]

So my 1st bet of the day:

Who will run who out?

For sure Moyo dunno whos going to be his victim )

 

[Gollum]

Run rate is pretty low. They need about 100 runs a session

Let them settle down first!
