drinks break

 

[czarkeen]

Have you noticed it doesn't say "Pakistan need three wickets to win" and you know why because this is not just that kind of a test match.

#scarythoughts

 

[Kianig89]

trail by 5

 

[hur rizvi]

As long as target is under-100 i think we should be fine, but over hundred would give SA a chance

 

[Wattoo]

Akmal is responsible for all this.

Did I miss something?

 

[doctordamor]

Man this sucks we need wkt so badly, can't wait for Aamir to come back, we don't have a single bowler that can run through the sides

 

[Ahson8]

Come on boysss

 

[saiyan0312]

cmon guys get rejuvenated and take them down.

 

[Desi_Joker]

Pakistan needs to restrict South Africa's scoring in the next 10 overs to 30-40 max. After that, Peterson, Philander and Morkel will be sitting ducks against the new ball.

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 55 runs

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

how can pakistan lose this match ?

scenarios pls

1.chasing 150 ?

 

[Saeed]

SA need 40 more runs to win this match.

New ball is easiest to play on this pitch

 

[Justcrazy]

Pieterson showing why he is preffered over Tahir.

 

[doctordamor]

Pakistan team has the worst fans in the world, hate their own players

 

[Saeed]

Did I miss something?

He dropped the catch of some batsman before lunch.

 

[Wattoo]

after every break we got wicket, hopefully after this drinks break we shall take AB wicket.

 

[hur rizvi]

1.chasing 150 ?

Chasing anything more than 100, would give SA some chance, 150 or above i think match would be evenly poised

 

[saiyan0312]

Cmon wicket

 

[doctordamor]

SA bowling will be lethal this time around they have learned their lengths and line they going to kill us

 

[hur rizvi]

He dropped the catch of some batsman before lunch.

He dropped Faf,, he hardly scored a run after that

 

[doctordamor]

He dropped the catch of some batsman before lunch.

that was faf and faf is out, stop the hatred and why didn't YK catch it, it was wide of akmal

 

[Wattoo]

He dropped the catch of some batsman before lunch.

Manjhla Akmal too

 

[Desi_Joker]

New ball is easiest to play on this pitch

For top order players.

Not for lower order players.

Irfan will be a handful for them.

 

[hur rizvi]

Poor line again from Junaid

 

[Ims1]

if they add 50-60 more ,i can see a lot of wrist slitters appearing on this thread ....

 

[Arsal_AK]

this match is gone.

Say what?

 

[Kianig89]

this session so far SA dominating

 

[saiyan0312]

Trail by 4

 

[Sledger]

SA 4 behind.

 

[hur rizvi]

Junaid has bowled extremely poor line in this spell

 

[Kianig89]

deficit by :4

 

[Justcrazy]

to start

 

[Saeed]

He dropped Faf,, he hardly scored a run after that

It affected the team morale just look at the fielding and bowling before the drop and now.

 

[saiyan0312]

Trail by 3.... hattrick anyone.

 

[Sledger]

lol, Pak fans are getting overly scared. SA are still well behind in this game.

 

[imshally81]

[doctordamor]

[Sledger]

[hur rizvi]

This one is for you HAysman

 

[PTI tsunami]

Yessssssss take that haysman

 

[saiyan0312]

juni gets AB and i said if anyone would and it would be juni. Finally over the wicket and got his line right.

 

[Desi_Joker]

ABCDEFGHI LMN OUT!

 

[CalculatedRisk]

 

[Sledger]

Innings victory time, hopefully the wrist slitters will quiet down now.

 

[jattafridi]

[Speedster1]

[Wattoo]

Bring back zulfi breaker ............

 

[Kianig89]

[Justcrazy]

South Africa trail by 3 runs with 3 wickets remaining

 

[Mamoon]

 

[doctordamor]

ooey hoey juni

 

[Justcrazy]

South Africa trail by 3 runs with 3 wickets remaining

 

[Saeed]

Say what?

We will lose it, don't you remember how much robin hood scored in SA.This pitch is flat so he will score much more.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Junaid...... ...

Deserves every bit of it....

What a display of reverse swing bowling.That's how you do is Styen,Philander,Morkel.

 

[saiyan0312]

Junaid you beauty... haysman take that.

 

[Afridi96]

Just tweeted AB is definitely the batsman in the world right now, and the jixed worked! (but he still is the best)

 

[Wattoo]

after every break we got wicket, hopefully after this drinks break we shall take AB wicket.

See what I said just during drinks break

 

[Batman]

AB goes

 

[Ahson8]

Just 2 more now lads

 

[WNC]

Am guessing Peterson will play his shots now.

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Just when Mike Haysman was getting chirpy and starts dreaming about a Steyn 7 for 30, AB gets out! haha

 

[Sledger]

190/8, SA's misery nearly over.

 

[saiyan0312]

Junaid really was troubling Ab before this spell ... he deserved that wicket.

 

[Arsal_AK]

We will lose it, don't you remember how much robin hood scored in SA.This pitch is flat so he will score much more.

You were saying?

 

[Saeed]

Yes we will win now.Hater can go back to their nests.

 

[hur rizvi]

juni gets AB and i said if anyone would and it would be juni. Finally over the wicket and got his line right.

Yes, he is the only one who troubled him

 

[Sam18696]

Big man gone!

 

[Justcrazy]

2 wickets left

 

[Saeed]

You were saying?

I was trying to jinx.

 

[Sledger]

Lead is one.

 

[saiyan0312]

Just when Mike Haysman was getting chirpy and starts dreaming about a Steyn 7 for 30, AB gets out! haha

7 for 30... thats a little less... by his talks i thought he would a 10 for 15

 

[hur rizvi]

trail by 1

 

[doctordamor]

Misbah remove ajmal bring in zulfi

 

[saiyan0312]

lead one... we will bat but for 20 runs maximum i think

 

[C.E.S]

This has to be some of the worst commentary I've ever heard.

And the most fanciful exhibition of wishful thinking.

 

[Kianig89]

AB gone wow trail by 1

 

[Wattoo]

trail by 1 run

 

[Justcrazy]

These two can also bat . SA have stunning depth with Batting.
