Pakistan v South Africa | 1st Test | Dubai | 14/11/10 | Day 3: Session 1

[haroonrasheed320]

I think we got our answer, why they don't take singles. its simple, because they can't!

 

[Fawad_Bhai]

don't like mIsbah yaar!

 

[JibranAnsari]

collapse alert! collapse alert!

 

[Decipher]

I think we got our answer, why they don't take singles. its simple, because they can't!

In other words ... why can't they play full blooded shots like Sehwag ? its simple, because they can't !

 

[JibranAnsari]

pakistan is too slow. should have scored arount 220 by now

 

[MRSN]

Misbah off the mark

 

[JibranAnsari]

younis khan fell to a dolly

 

[hur rizvi]

Pakistan innings is really following Indian innings closely



India lost Sachin today to vettori

and

PAkistan have lost YK to botha

 

[oracleg]

South Africa are just so good at creating pressure with their fielding.

Younus wouldn't have tried that shot if he'd scored a boundary the previous over.

 

[Noork85]

In other words ... why can't they play full blooded shots like Sehwag ? its simple, because they can't !

If ur looking for sehwag support, then head over somewhere else and stop polluting this place. Just to remind u in case u can't see, this is pak vs sa and not India vs nz.

Thank u and good day!

 

[ZAK]

Misbah gets off the mark.

 

[MRSN]

collapse alert! collapse alert!

Not yet,Umer akmal our best Test player is yet to bat

 

[Decipher]

pakistan is too slow. should have scored arount 220 by now.

Cuz they are over cautious and under confident.

 

[ZAK]

177/3

 

[hur rizvi]

Gradpa Misbah will fail again today ....

 

[JibranAnsari]

misbah is a blocker. get ready to get bored

 

[spoiled]

is something now gonna happen after which debates and arguments about dropping and chopping players will start?
or the captain can save the ship?

 

[optimusprime1122]

i hope misbah play like a captain. dont want too much tuk tuk from misbah

 

[oracleg]

Pakistan innings is really following Indian innings closely



India lost Sachin today to vettori

and

PAkistan have lost YK to botha

let's hope misbah plays a vvs like innings then

 

[JibranAnsari]

lets hope we touch 300

 

[hur rizvi]

Not yet,Umer akmal our best Test player is yet to bat

He isnt our best test player needs to sort out his mind to be successful ....


Averaging 37 doesnt make u the best player of the team

 

[MRSN]

misbah is a blocker. get ready to get bored

its test cricket yaar,otherwise wouldn't have retired.

 

[Decipher]

Misbah is gonna make this pitch look like an impossible strip to bat.

 

[optimusprime1122]

lets hope we touch 300

:umarakmal if stays then 400 is also possible.

 

[hur rizvi]

let's hope misbah plays a vvs like innings then

That is beyond his calibre ..

 

[MRSN]

He isnt our best test player needs to sort out his mind to be successful ....


Averaging 37 doesnt make u the best player of the team

well statistically he is,he has scored more runs since nov. last year. than any other Pakistani batsman.

 

[hur rizvi]

Oh my word was that a no ball on which younis got out I cant see anything behind the line

 

[JibranAnsari]

another maiden

 

[ZAK]

Maiden.

177/3

 

[Noork85]

Oh my word was that a no ball on which younis got out I cant see anything behind the line

Looks like it, very close

 

[hur rizvi]

well statistically he is,he has scored more runs since nov. than any other Pakistani batsman.

Stats dont matter he hasnt played responsibly after his debut series in NZ

 

[JibranAnsari]

botha looks like taking 5

 

[Decipher]

lets hope we touch 300

.

"Hope" should be our national sport, national symbol, national gesture and national slogan.
We do it A LOT and we do it without a plan or hard work.

 

[ZAK]

Single to Ali.

 

[hur rizvi]

Misbah is making Botha look Swann

 

[ZAK]

Single to Misbah.

 

[hur rizvi]

"Hope" should be our national sport, national symbol, national gesture and national slogan.
We do it A LOT and we do it without a plan or hard work.

We have been working hard in this game so far

 

[JibranAnsari]

yah right. Thats what we always do keep on hoping , despite being betrayed most of the times we again turn to hope.

 

[ZAK]

179/3

 

[Seen Sheen]

Come on Misbah,time to justify your place..

 

[Decipher]

We have been working hard in this game so far

Depends on what you call hard work ..

For me... the batsmen are playing in a wait to make a mistake and walk back to the stadium.

 

[JibranAnsari]

2 more runs to avoid follow on

 

[MRSN]

Stats dont matter he hasnt played responsibly after his debut series in NZ

he was impressive against Aus as well,he needs to convert good starts into big score,I agree with you on this

 

[hur rizvi]

I hate PAkistani batsman when they make Average spinners look World class

 

[JibranAnsari]

they making kallis look like shoaib akhter

 

[hur rizvi]

he was impressive against Aus as well,he needs to good starts into big score,I agree with you on this

Impressive is another thing and being responsible is another ... He has talent but he needs to use his mind properly

 

[Decipher]

lol ,,, Misbah made Kallis look like a white Malcom Marshall

 

[Decipher]

I hate PAkistani batsman when they make Average spinners look World class
.

Yep, they are "working hard" towards this noble cause.

 

[JibranAnsari]

another maiden . wth

 

[optimusprime1122]

This is the very reason why i want Umar Akmal battin at no 3. Whats the point of batting 100 odd overs if u cant score 300.

 

[hur rizvi]

Depends on what you call hard work ..

For me... the batsmen are playing in a wait to make a mistake and walk back to the stadium.

MAte we are 179/3 against the best bowling attack in the world

 

[JibranAnsari]

snails could bat faster than our batsmen

 

[hur rizvi]

They are making botha look World class

 

[JibranAnsari]

MAte we are 179/3 against the best bowling attack in the world

on the flattest of tracks

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Azhar Ali is losing his patience. He is trying to play a big shot every over. Misbah is not helping from the other end, he is stuck in a hole.

 

[JibranAnsari]

damn azhar , make some runs

 

[MRSN]

good single,no need to play silly shots,no need to panic

 

[hur rizvi]

on the flattest of tracks

Isnt that flat to be honest Morkel and gul have moved the ball a bit and ball is spinning as well

 

[Decipher]

Looks like Misbah wants to play the next 3 days and score 50 runs to draw the game

 

[optimusprime1122]

I m not hating on azhar ali but wat kind of no 3 batsman have a strike rate of 38. Atleast rotate strike.

 

[ZAK]

1 to Ali.

180/3

 

[insaaniyat]

This is the very reason why i want Umar Akmal battin at no 3. Whats the point of batting 100 odd overs if u cant score 300.

We would be 4 wicket down by now then.

 

[jattafridi]

Pakistan playing for draw which is good cuz they know they cant win

 

[aqeelPK]

Follow on avoided.

 

[MRSN]

another good single

 

[JibranAnsari]

Isnt that flat to be honest Morkel and gul have moved the ball a bit and ball is spinning as well

isnt the hardest to bat on , look at the run rate they not even making use of the bad balls

 

[hur rizvi]

Now see them make Harris look Vettori ...

 

[ZAK]

Harris comes into the attack.

 

[ZAK]

1 to Azhar.

 

[jattafridi]

Follow on avoided.

 

[Paradox]

Wow we need to score as many runs as we can before this pitch gets harder to bat on.

Misbah lets go of a full toss. Jeez.

 

[JibranAnsari]

run rate. 2.5

 

[161]

lol misbah cant even score off a full toss

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Misbah can't put away a juicy full toss . )

 

[Decipher]

lol .. cant even dispatch a flighted full toss off of a spinner..

 

[JibranAnsari]

we will have to play 200 overs to make 500. who said we gna make 600?

 

[ZAK]

181/3

 

[optimusprime1122]

We would be 4 wicket down by now then.

Atleast we would ve been 250 up by this time.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Misbah 2* (21)

SR 9.52

 

[holldout]
