Pakistan v South Africa l 2nd Test | Dubai | 23/10/13 | Day 1

[saiyan0312]

We just lost a spinner on a UAE pitch.

 

[Jaggu]

no Imran Tahir picking a fiver is fluke.

Just accept that Pakistan took advantage of an under prepared South African side lacking match practice

 

[Ims1]

We just lost a spinner on a UAE pitch.

dont be dramatic. he will be back shortly.

 

[saiyan0312]

they are playing slow but are still there,

 

[Bilal7]

Just accept that Pakistan took advantage of an under prepared South African side lacking match practice

Go back to your hole, troll. Worry about your game.

 

[saiyan0312]

dont be dramatic. he will be back shortly.

I am not being dramatic. dramatic is they are 69/1 when we were 69/7.

 

[KA$H]

uff this is painful

 

[saiyan0312]

Irfans on last chance... another warning and he will be off.

 

[saiyan0312]

We are having trouble removing their most out of form player. we need a cluster of quick wickets.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Misbah trying to be clever has come out rathar silly.

 

[Boi]

Pakistan just seem to be going through the motions here. Need something special to lift them.

 

[smasher1980]

Signs not looking good for Pak...looks like SA will go on to get a huge lead!

 

[Jaggu]

Go back to your hole, troll. Worry about your game.

Explain to me how am I troll? Its a fact that SA were under-prepared and lacked match practice.

The real difference between the quality of the two sides is being shown now.

 

[saiyan0312]

wasnt elgar supposed to be the loser that cant bat and wont last five minutes...

 

[smasher1980]

Explain to me how am I troll? Its a fact that SA were under-prepared and lacked match practice.

The real difference between the quality of the two sides is being shown now.

Not completely true...this is more due to Pak imploding this innings in a way only Pak can do.

 

[saiyan0312]

ok get together... they are not invincible at this point. We need to remove a wicket... cmon Irfan.

 

[saiyan0312]

full toss... quite high

 

[saiyan0312]

Azhar ali bowling... well take some wickets.

 

[smasher1980]

Azhar Ali bowling?? You must be kidding me!!

 

[KA$H]

ok get together... they are not invincible at this point. We need to remove a wicket... cmon Irfan.

agreed. right attitude

 

[saiyan0312]

well they rotated azhar and got 7 runs from it. might as well give the ball to juni.

 

[saiyan0312]

Smith reaching 36/.

 

[KA$H]

1 wkt will bring 2

 

[razabbas]

Traild by 16 and 9 wickets in hand

 

[razabbas]

 

[razabbas]

it was out

 

[Bullet Drive]

90-1

 

[doctordamor]

it was out

No it wasn't he was in. Anyway this ladies and gentleman another episode of Phainti dished out by SA to Pakistan

 

[JibranAnsari]

Wasted reviews will come to haunt us.

 

[Bullet Drive]

91-1

 

[chaiwala]

Elgar looks like Graeme Smith's twin. Eerie.

 

[Bullet Drive]

SA have batted well, credit.

 

[Osman]

this is pathetic...what is the point of bowling azhar ali...is giving 1s and 2s every ball

 

[King Cobra]

These two are such boring batsman. No point watching unless Ab, Faf and Duminy come to bat.

 

[doctordamor]

Unless Azhar Ali produce a match winning knock, this should be his last test with Asad Shafiq and Zulfiqar Babar

 

[saiyan0312]

Smith only needs 160 runs to complete 9000 test runs.

 

[doctordamor]

Sharp catch by azhar

 

[jattafridi]

Ajmal strikes

 

[Bullet Drive]

Worst knock ever by Elgar. Disgusting.

 

[saiyan0312]

y a wicket and a very excellent catch by azhar.

 

[jattafridi]

Need 2 more come on boys

 

[Bullet Drive]

Kallis in.

Bring on Junaid.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Junaids bunny in

 

[Abdul Ahad]

Finally! after some useless dives in short leg since first test

 

[saiyan0312]

Elgar was just surviving like smith is. Smith is an out of form batsmen so i understand his innings but elgar....

 

[saiyan0312]

Now use juanid khan.. kallis can give it away and Ab will have a better chance of getting out to pace then spin.

 

[razabbas]

on

 

[Bullet Drive]

Kallis to score double

 

[saiyan0312]

Thank God no more azhar ali bowling... juni bowling.. babar absence was felt.

 

[akheR]

Clash of the titans.

 

[saiyan0312]

junaid vs kallis.

 

[saiyan0312]

Clash of the titans.

the other is a titan but one of them is still very young.

 

[Bullet Drive]

3 more wickets please!

 

[razabbas]

Junaid Spot on

 

[Bullet Drive]

Brilliant bowling from Junaid to Kallis.

Kaliis worried.

 

[Xoib]

Kallis is due watch him sit on Pakistan here 150+ on the cards.

 

[razabbas]

Kaliis looking shaky

 

[Bullet Drive]

That looked plumb for me !!!!!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Missing leg!

 

[saiyan0312]

the next coming batsmen is the one that will tell who will get the test match. Both ajmal and junaid have taken kallis so its tough for him being out there.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan need to have S.A atleast 5 down by close of play to have a chance in this match!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Bring the field up!

 

[Bullet Drive]

55 minutes. Can we get 3 more wickets?

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Kallis looking shaky.

 

[Bullet Drive]

WTHHH why have a long off when Kallis is struggling on 0?

 

[saiyan0312]

babar to return soon.

 

[Bullet Drive]

TOo many easy singles allwoed.

 

[razabbas]

smith looking good now

 

[Bullet Drive]

Smith retains strike to keep Kallis away from Junaid

 

[Xoib]

the next coming batsmen is the one that will tell who will get the test match. Both ajmal and junaid have taken kallis so its tough for him being out there.

bhai match khatam hai the only thing left is to see whether it will be a innings defeat or not.

 

[saiyan0312]

we need attacking field against kallis and smith... both are shaky.

 

[razabbas]

babar to return soon.

Who said ?

 

[saiyan0312]

bhai match khatam hai the only thing left is to see whether it will be a innings defeat or not.

There is always uncertainty. :younis

 

[razabbas]

Lazy stuff

 

[razabbas]

bhai match khatam hai the only thing left is to see whether it will be a innings defeat or not.

true that. Dil k arman ansooo ma bhaaa gai

 

[saiyan0312]

Who said ?

Firdose Moonda, who's in Dubai, says: "Babar has had a stitch in the webbing between the index finger and thumb on his right hand and he should be back on the field soon."

On cricinfo.

 

[taqi]

whats the news on babar?

 

[doctordamor]

Run out missed

 

[saiyan0312]

body language of players is looking very bad.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Southafrica only needs a hundred runs lead to win the test by an innings.
