Pakistan v South Africa l 1st Test | Abu Dhabi | 11/15/13 | Day 3

[razabbas]

We need to trade a few spinners with S.A. for a good batsman or a fast bowler

Good batsman

 

[WebGuru]

Good to see Asad getting some runs

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan lead by 99 runs with 6 wickets remaining in the 1st innings

 

[DW44]

100 lead up.

 

[Sledger]

Liking these quick singles.

 

[WebGuru]

Adnan and Zulfi

 

[razabbas]

100 runs lead Yupppyyy

 

[Sam18696]

100 lead up yesssssssssssss

 

[Naheem]

100 lead yahoo

 

[Sledger]

349/4.

 

[Justcrazy]

Lead 100 runs

 

[Sledger]

350 runs on the board.

 

[Justcrazy]

Another 100 runs , Pakistan would be bang on Top.

 

[DRS]

Should get 100 more to put pressure on Proteas to urge them to get choked

 

[Bullet Drive]

Our session !

 

[Sledger]

352/4 and lunch. Pakistan dominating.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Pakistan are dominating.

 

[Justcrazy]

Great chance for Asad to score big here.

 

[razabbas]

Btoh days and now this session dominated by us keep on going boys

 

[London_Lahori]

Good session. Sad I'm missing live play and am relying on updates from my phone. Seems like the kind of test you need to be watching from the comfort of the living room!

 

[Justcrazy]

This is looking bad for SA

 

[London_Lahori]

I really want asad to go on here and silence the doubters. Important player in our line up.

How's the pitch playing?

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 62 runs already

 

[Justcrazy]

Lunch

Advantage Pakistan

 

[Colt]

Time to watch the Trundlers trundling for a bit.. lol

 

[taqi]

pakistan should look to bat once in this test now.

 

[Haroon786]

Hopefully the pitch starts to play a bit more difficult, even we are making this look like a batting paradise, how will we get them out in the 2nd innings ?

 

[Haroon786]

Or rather, as someone has suggested bat big once, go for 550-600 and then hunt them down for the innings win.

 

[Haroon786]

Why is everyone bowling 130s, poor fitness ?

 

[Amjid Javed]

If we can some how manage to bat for another 40-50 overs and then put S.A back in tonight that would be great a 200 lead would be something our spinner really could work with, taking another 10 S.A wickets cheaply will be hard though.

 

[Electron]

This match has re-kindled my faith in Pakistan Cricket again. Great job.

 

[dr_amin138]

good stuff so far from pakistan

 

[MRSN]

This has been great batting...

 

[Red Devil]

They're back

 

[razabbas]

This match has re-kindled my faith in Pakistan Cricket again. Great job.

LOL if this is coming from you then its 110% confirm that PAKISTAN have done something extraordnrny or something was was not expected

 

[razabbas]

[Red Devil]

Review

 

[razabbas]

There was a noise

 

[mosh101]

Here's hoping for a Misbah TON !

 

[Red Devil]

I think he's safe

 

[razabbas]

BAT on Ground saved review wasted

 

[hur rizvi]

Bat on ground

 

[WebGuru]

Wasted Review AB

 

[Bullet Drive]

353-4

 

[Red Devil]

Not Out

 

[Haroon786]

The SAffas seem to be all cheaters, another howler by AB now.

 

[mosh101]

SA going berserk here

 

[razabbas]

SA desprte

 

[hur rizvi]

Duminy looks much better than peterson

 

[razabbas]

The SAffas seem to be all cheaters, another howler by AB now.

Well i dont think thatu can call this a cheat , a noise was produced that why he thought that there could have been an edge

 

[Haroon786]

Shafiq is middling the ball, but hitting it straight to the fielder.

 

[hur rizvi]

The SAffas seem to be all cheaters, another howler by AB now.

It was an appeal, what's cheating in that??

 

[fumaster]

 

[Haroon786]

Well i dont think thatu can call this a cheat , a noise was produced that why he thought that there could have been an edge

In my view, he could've seen whether the bat hit the ball.

 

[Bullet Drive]

So far this has been the PERFECT test for Pakistan

 

[Red Devil]

Nice Shot by Shify

 

[MRSN]

lovely punch that...Asad is good against outswing.

 

[Bullet Drive]

What a shot by Shafiq!!!!!

Beautiful but no four

 

[Electron]

LOL if this is coming from you then its 110% confirm that PAKISTAN have done something extraordnrny or something was was not expected

Indeed they have. Would be awesome if bowlers can replicate their first innings performance and finish Saffas off with style.

 

[Bullet Drive]

lovely punch that...Asad is good against outswing.

Yes but he has trouble vs inswinger.

 

[razabbas]

Ya pitch kis type ke hogai ha please can anyone tell me ?

 

[Haroon786]

Guess Shafiq listened to me, 3 off a backfoot punch

 

[Bullet Drive]

Nice hook by Misbah.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Come on Misbah just 19 more. In sha Allah he scores a hundred. In sha Allah Shafiq scores a ton too.

 

[Bullet Drive]

I want PAK to bat until there's around 45 minutes left. Then we should let SA bat.

 

[Bullet Drive]

wowwwwwwwwwwwwwww. What a shot by Shafiq. Pure class.

 

[MRSN]

class shot

 

[dhump]

[WebGuru]

Classy Shot by Asad. Love it

 

[Bullet Drive]

That for me is the shot of the day by Asad Shafiq.

 

[Haroon786]

Quality stroke, 4

 

[razabbas]

Indeed they have. Would be awesome if bowlers can replicate their first innings performance and finish Saffas off with style.

All eyes on our bowling attack but the pitch have been werid from the starting of the day

 

[Naheem]

asad on fire

 

[MRSN]

Phillander needs to bring the ball in.

 

[Red Devil]

Beauty!!!! Shify looking great MashAllah

 

[Bullet Drive]

'there's a shade of Tendulkar in Shafiq's shot' - Haysman. What a compliment.

 

[razabbas]

2 runs short of his fifty

 

[dhump]

OMG shadows of Tendulkar in this shot * who is the commie with chushti mujahid*

 

[Bullet Drive]
