Where is Wasim?????? WHY IS CHISTI HERE but no Wasim???

 

[anakwalajinn]

Shan Masood needed only 2 balls to outscore

 

[saiyan0312]

good running and quick singles... keep it up,.

 

[Red Devil]

Shan looks a compact player

 

[smoothcriminal]

Qari Chishty is explaining why you can play on festivals.

facepalm

 

[anakwalajinn]

Qari Chishty is explaining why you can play on festivals.

What did he say?

 

[imshally81]

Styn wants M Hafeez in the Team....

 

[Saeed]

Good run rate.Should keep going like this.

 

[PakistanKnight]

Look how good Shan has looked.

Told u its not all about fc averagea.

Only 10 balls he has faced on intl. scene. I agree that he has looked good but let him play the whole match. I agree that it is not about averages only but they are exceptions,not rules.

 

[imshally81]

Good Left

 

[Red Devil]

Where is Wasim?????? WHY IS CHISTI HERE but no Wasim???

In India doing Hindi commentary alongside Rameez

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good start by Pakistan.

Keep it like this. We need to blunt the new ball. Go at 2.5 an over for around 15-20 overs and then it'll get really easy. We can then score at 3.

 

[saiyan0312]

Who is missing M. Hafeez ???

WHO?? oh i remember such a player who avg 10 in a year. i think one of our bowlers out avg him and outscored him.

 

[Justcrazy]

12 / 0

 

[Asif321]

misbah has heart in his mouth

 

[JibranAnsari]

Steyn can get swing anywhere. What a bowler.

 

[PakistanKnight]

What did he say?

He said that viewers are asking 'why Pakistan is playing on a religious festival?'And he replied that Pakistan have done it earlier as well like Dunedin in 2009 etc.

 

[Red Devil]

Beastly stats

 

[saiyan0312]

philander,s plan b is attack the stumps again and again. not a bad idea.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Great technique shown by Masood.

 

[PakistanKnight]

facepalm

Is that for my statement or Chishty?

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Philander struggling.

 

[Saeed]

OUT! Oh wait Hafeez isn't playing...

The played the whole 1st inning of SA without him.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Wow. good positive start from Manzoor and Shan. this is the way they should play and not just tuck tuck tuck tuck till they get out..

 

[Bullet Drive]

Very good batting by both so far.

 

[saiyan0312]

philander in is attack mode. he is trying to get a wicket.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Pakistani players should not play on eid but it is the best entertainment pakistan people can get on.eid day.

 

[Asif321]

misbah looking 40+

 

[imshally81]

Both looking Good... [No Jinx]

 

[JibranAnsari]

Steyn will crank it up now.

 

[Sunny786]

Shan looks very compact and level headed so far.

 

[Kianig89]

12-0

 

[imshally81]

bad line... Single

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Steyn is bowling well.

 

[saiyan0312]

a fine single.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Both looking Good... [No Jinx]

Jinx is nothing.

 

[Red Devil]

[Justcrazy]

13 / 0

 

[imshally81]

Lucky

 

[Saeed]

Was that dropped

 

[Asif321]

shaan masood dropped

 

[saiyan0312]

outside edge and i think it fell short or was a very close drop... single.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Good ball from Steyn.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Shan masood is terrible. No real footwork. Jamshed is much much better.

 

[saiyan0312]

dropped by kallis.

 

[Red Devil]

Lucky escape for Shaan

 

[Asif321]

SA might have to pay a big price of dropping the debutant

 

[Kianig89]

edge

 

[blackanhyellow]

masood edged it twice already.

 

[imshally81]

2 runs...
Out field is very slow....

 

[saiyan0312]

guy is an awesome catches.. has 194 catches. 2 runs.

 

[imshally81]

Kallis dropped the Match.. Actually....

 

[Justcrazy]

16 / 0

 

[Red Devil]

Shan masood is terrible. No real footwork. Jamshed is much much better.

The Irony

 

[Kianig89]

A chance for Shan gotta capitalize it man

 

[imshally81]

:4

 

[Asif321]

 

[saiyan0312]

edged and for khurram ...

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Beautifully blanced shot from Manzoor

 

[Red Devil]

Edge.

 

[Saeed]

So many edges.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Going at 4 an over. Good start no wicket lost.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Manzoor looks positive.

 

[Justcrazy]

I hope there 2 play well so that does not play again.

 

[Premier Cricketer]

Shan masood is terrible. No real footwork. Jamshed is much much better.

Let the lad play . . . yeah he may turn out to be Farhat 2.0, but we should give him some time... we always go.. oh he shouldn't be playing, jamshed or shehzad should and when they play people go.. why isn't harris or amin or playing? If I was debuting against Steyn, I would be a little nervous early on.

 

[Kianig89]

Kallis is getting fat n slow looks like

 

[saiyan0312]

cmon masood forget about the drop and think about making them pay./

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan openers living dangerously here.

 

[imshally81]

Great shot

 

[Asif321]

lovely shot by shaani

 

[hur rizvi]

Wonderful On drive from Shan masood

 

[saiyan0312]

awesome shot... why isnt it a 4... 3 runs.

 

[Naheem]

short :4

 

[yasir]

With age, its hard to come down fast... Kallis should think about his field position... In Asia balls are going to keep low...

Great over by Styen, inducing two edges... Pakistan should be happy to have survive both

 

[Red Devil]

Class shot

 

[Kianig89]

Another :4 thorugh slips the uncertainty playing towards slip is alarming its UAe otherwise it would have been curtains so far

 

[GreenKnightRises]

beautiful on drive from Shan

 

[imshally81]

itz four man...
