[Red Devil]

Mix Up. Amla was very lucky direct would have got him

 

[imshally81]

what a delivery.... almost

 

[Red Devil]

How is Ajmal 37???

 

[WebGuru]

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

yup that's necessary

 

[Seen Sheen]

that was marginal at best...

No need to employ Facepalm. The way he shook his head to influence the umpire was pretty bad. Walking or not is a separate debate.

 

[Justcrazy]

24 / 2

 

[chaiwala]

"36th anniversary of his birthday, which means it's his 37th birthday."

Stop talking like that lol!! Who is this guy?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

who is this commentator talking about birthdays?

 

[Bilal7]

Kallis doesn't want any excercise.

 

[Justcrazy]

Irfan will be deadly In Australia .

 

[coca-cola]

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

Oh god. Please shut up.

) it's torturous...

----------------


WHERE WAS THAT DIRECT HIT...? come on ajjie...

Chisti: Ajmal today, celebrating the 24th anniversary of his birth

IT'S CALLED A BIRTHDAY YOU OLD MAN.

 

[kungfu90]

who is this commentator talking about birthdays?

chisty mujahid.

 

[smoothcriminal]

There is something more dull than watching paint dry; Chisty Mujahid. Maybe on the radio 25 years ago he was fine but for the love of God.

 

[imshally81]

Spinner on ???

 

[Asif321]

babar sahab is in

 

[Red Devil]

Babar on now

 

[WebGuru]

Time for Zulfi!

Here comes his first ball in Tests

 

[Justcrazy]

when will we see ?

 

[Seen Sheen]

Baba the tweaker is on.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Now spin after a testing 9 overs of space. Good move by Misbah

 

[Bilal7]

"36th anniversary of his birthday, which means it's his 37th birthday."

Stop talking like that lol!! Who is this guy?

Thats good old Chishty Mujahid. Always trying his best to make sure viewers get there sleep.

 

[saiyan0312]

seamers taken off already.

 

[coca-cola]

No need to employ Facepalm. The way he shook his head to influence the umpire was pretty bad. Walking or not is a separate debate.

That facepalm was necessary. Broad middled that ball into second slip whereas some third umpires might not have given that out...

 

[Justcrazy]

Babar on now.

 

[hur rizvi]

Not much turn

 

[Justcrazy]

Babar needs to use his flight here to get wickets.

 

[MVP26]

No life in the pitch. Looks like 500+ road

 

[saiyan0312]

juni taken off.

 

[Justcrazy]

29 / 2 after 10 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

Irfan still continues

 

[Bilal7]

No turn. Need to maximize damage at this stage.

Btw, who is speakinging the background?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Should be the last over for Irfan.

 

[saiyan0312]

nice flick.

 

[imshally81]

uff... Outfield damn slow.....

 

[imshally81]

Dropped ??

 

[Justcrazy]

Spin will hold the key for Pakistan in this series.

 

[Executioner]

wow 2 down already! Pakistan should remember

 

[coca-cola]

I think I have acquired narcolepsy from this old commentator

 

[Justcrazy]

A legspinner here would have been ideal.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

So. we have only 4 bowlers officially. Awesome

 

[Haroon786]

apparrntly Zulf has similar action to Kaneria's, although he is an offie.

 

[saiyan0312]

Man we have to bowl awesome to get a result out of this match.

 

[Bilal7]

Some of the stuff Chishty says has me lolling.

 

[Bilal7]

So. we have only 4 bowlers officially. Awesome

Like most teams do.

 

[Justcrazy]

31 / 2

You too are being quite sensational. He didn't middle the ball. Edge went into keepers hand who parrie it to first slip not second slip.

Smith's act of shaking his head after edging it made him look quite silly in the end.

 

[iafzal]

someone talking about Fawad on cricinfo?

M F Nadeem: "I don't remember a single batsman in past who averaged 50+ (Look at the excellent quality of our bowling in domestic cricket, over the years) in Pakistan FC, and failed to perform on International levels, but still selectors keep on ignoring those who perform in domestic cricket."

 

[saiyan0312]

Woah aggressive shot and

 

[Down2Earth]

It feels so good to watch a test match without hafeez. I do not miss him and never will

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

 

[JibranAnsari]

Dropping rehman can prove costly.

 

[coca-cola]

I need some coffee because of his chisti

 

[A.M.]

Juni back shld ball round d wicket

 

[KB-24]

Amla & Kallis stand in the way of Pakistan's hopes of winning this match. Need to get rid of them both right now else we'll be looking at a tall order.

 

[hur rizvi]

Junaid needs to bowl around the wicket

 

[razabbas]

amla and kallis na agar crease thoda lamba time k liya occupy karli so its all over for us

 

[coca-cola]

You too are being quite sensational. He didn't middle the ball. Edge went into keepers hand who parrie it to first slip not second slip.

Smith's act of shaking his head after edging it made him look quite silly in the end.

Hardly sensational. This has nothing to do with the players' actions. The original poster was talking in regards to the edges' thickness. We all know that Smith had every right to stay there and that call was marginal given the original umpires ruling.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Little crowd and dull commentary. What more could you ask for pleasure.

 

[razabbas]

Feilder thoda aga lao amla catch out hojata abhe

 

[hur rizvi]

Dropping rehman can prove costly.

It was an unfair decision, Rehman doesnt deserve to get dropped

 

[A.M.]

It was an unfair decision, Rehman doesnt deserve to get dropped

He is injured

 

[Haroon786]

Amla and Devilliers are more necessary to get out.

 

[saiyan0312]

new ball losing its shine.

 

[Bilal7]

These two are getting settled here. Cannot let this happen.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Hardly sensational. This has nothing to do with the players' actions. The original poster was talking in regards to the edges' thickness. We all know that Smith had every right to stay there and that call was marginal given the original umpires ruling.

If you play cricket you will know that batsmen is aware of even the slighest of the edge.

 

[amjad145]

Yeah feel sorry for Rehman but we had no choice . Babar was bowling good in warm up matches

 

[saiyan0312]

When the pitch is flat you either wait for the ball to reverse or start balling yorkers.

 

[JibranAnsari]

No swing there. Has a single ball swung ?

 

[Asif321]

 

[razabbas]

what a drive by amla

 

[Haroon786]

Juni not getting any movement.

 

[imshally81]

Drinks...

 

[saiyan0312]

by amla.

 

[amjad145]

Smith should have walked

 

[hur rizvi]

Ajmal should replace babar for time being..

 

[GreenKnightRises]

We' are going to let these two build 200+ partnership.

 

[JibranAnsari]

When the pitch is flat you either wait for the ball to reverse or start balling yorkers.

You have to prepare the ball for reverse as well, I hope our bowlers take care of that.

 

[coca-cola]

If you play cricket you will know that batsmen is aware of even the slighest of the edge.

If you watch cricket you will know that umpire is there for a reason lol

 

[Bilal7]

Match in the balance. These two are key for both sides.

 

[hur rizvi]

You have to prepare the ball for reverse as well, I hope our bowlers take care of that.

Waqar was saying outfield is too lush, Reverse swing might not be available
