Pakistan v South Africa l 1st Test| Abu Dhabi | 14/10/13 | Day 1

[A.M.]

No ramiz raja ?

 

[saiyan0312]

we got another wicket and Irfan takes both openers out. smith looked more edgy then hafeez against steyn in SA

 

[Saeed]

Yes third umpire is my brother from now on.

 

[Justcrazy]

what is happening?

 

[Bullet Drive]

2 wickets for Irfan now!!!!!

 

[Asif321]

and Irfan has another wht a man

 

[WebGuru]

Third umpire is not filling me with alot of confidence guys.

Chishti uncle got a wicket for us

 

[Bullet Drive]

Brilliant

 

[jattafridi]

3rd umpire good job

 

[amjad145]

Is it out ????

 

[Bilal7]

Had another bad thought:

Amla and Kallis will get big scores batting together.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Smith goes.Irfan you beauty....

 

[starbuck]

Smith also out. Excellent start by Pakistan

 

[Justcrazy]

19 / 2

Pakistan would be delighted

 

[Munna]

I think he just one played one confident stroke towards the covers. All others were more like evasive actions

 

[Bullet Drive]

What a ball that was.

Shameful of Smith not to walk when so blatant. As bad as Broad's.

 

[Red Devil]

Kallis walks in.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Now wait a day for next wicket

 

[saiyan0312]

Why dont batsmen walk anymore. :gilchrist

 

[Bullet Drive]

Come on lets get Kallis early

 

[chaiwala]

Kallis in. This partnership will be pretty crucial. If Irfan can bag another one, it will be really interesting.

 

[Munna]

No ramiz raja ?

He is in India for the Australian series

 

[hur rizvi]

Kallis and Amla together best batsmen in world ATM

 

[Bullet Drive]

2 more wickets in the next 6 overs and PAK will get SA out under 300

 

[amjad145]

Who is 3rd umpire?

 

[Saeed]

Get both of these batsman out before lunch.

 

[jattafridi]

now both batsmen will score centurys

 

[Justcrazy]

That was out clearly.

 

[saiyan0312]

Chishti uncle got a wicket for us

old is gold and now if he would go back and come again we can get kallis too...

kallis and amla... oh boy/

 

[Saeed]

Who is 3rd umpire?

Ian Gould.

 

[WebGuru]

My Goodness Kallis average almost 60 against Pakistan in Tests. 6 Centuries and 8 fifties 1500+ runs.

 

[Ims1]

What do you think of the pitch ? Result or draw ?

 

[Red Devil]

Two of SA's best batsmen on the crease now

 

[Justcrazy]

man with 13128 runs walks in

 

[Bilal7]

"The days of walking are over"

True that.

Sachin would have walked. Amla would have walked. Younis would have walked.

 

[A.M.]

Good for Babar when he comes onto bowl he will have two right handers

 

[amjad145]

Big fruits still to get out. Amb, kela, and abcd

 

[Asif321]

Irfan is dangerous

 

[Bullet Drive]

Great over by a great bowler.

 

[KB-24]

Why is there no hotspot? PCB at its best

 

[Justcrazy]

the mountain of this era is here.

 

[saiyan0312]

cmon juni.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

As expected our Kaptaan Ji has yet lost another toss. Good too see Zulfy and Irfan playing over Rehman.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

If Pak had another good pace option. It would have made one hell of a rivetting contest

 

[hur rizvi]

Junaid should consider going around the wicket

 

[Bilal7]

2 more wickets in the next 6 overs and PAK will get SA out under 300

If that happens then they'll get them out under 200.

 

[Justcrazy]

SA bat really deep.

 

[saiyan0312]

My Goodness Kallis average almost 60 against Pakistan in Tests. 6 Centuries and 8 fifties 1500+ runs.

Time to dent that avg.

 

[saiyan0312]

Edged but didnt carry.

 

[Asif321]

just short of misbah

 

[imshally81]

edged but didn't carry

 

[Red Devil]

Edged. Did Not carry

 

[hur rizvi]

Didnt carry , come ahead misbah

 

[JibranAnsari]

Shame! What a phatta pitch. No bounce.

 

[Red Devil]

Three

 

[saiyan0312]

3 runs and amla off the mark.

 

[imshally81]

Out field is very slow...

 

[Justcrazy]

3 more runs.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Can't let these lads settle!

 

[Seen Sheen]

Damn, you know the pitch is slow so why is slip cordon is standing deep. He played an attacking shot, should've carried.

 

[coca-cola]

What a ball that was.

Shameful of Smith not to walk when so blatant. As bad as Broad's.

that was marginal at best...

 

[chaiwala]

This commentary

 

[WebGuru]

Time to dent that avg.

We need to dent this partnership first you know why? Amla and Kallis together average 105 against Pakistan.

 

[Justcrazy]

yet to get a wicket .

 

[coca-cola]

who the hell invited this old man for commentary... will put me to sleep....

 

[saiyan0312]

Irfan vs amla... now.

 

[imshally81]

Damn, you know the pitch is slow and still not carrying. He played an attacking shot, should've carried. Standing too far behind.

agreed... should be 22-3

 

[coca-cola]

this commentary is sooooooooooooooo crap...

who is this dinosaur

 

[yasir]

Man, What a miss... They should be sitting up in slips for Junaid, pitch is slow...

 

[chaiwala]

who the hell invited this old man for commentary... will put me to sleep....

two...hundred...and....fourteen..........or.....two...hundred...and....fifteen.....

Oh god. Please shut up.

 

[saiyan0312]

We need to dent this partnership first you know why? Amla and Kallis together average 105 against Pakistan.

Na kar.... Oh no... we really do need to dent this one first. Cmon wicket.

 

[Justcrazy]

22 / 0 after 8 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

guys , how is the pitch? will it turn later?

 

[Red Devil]

22 / 0 after 8 overs

????

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Irfan getting good bounce even on this wicket. Junaid's bowled well but not the same amount of bounce

 

[imshally81]

Runout chance missed ....

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Juni is more threatening

 

[FasihHeadtickler]

Zalim bowling by Irfan

 

[KB-24]

If Amla bhai and Kallis settle down, we'll be in for a long day

 

[ViciousMachine]

omg!! what a missed chance....
