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

[Kianig89]

maiden

 

[GreenKnightRises]

man at least give strike to Shan . Shan will get out soon if he stays at the non strikers end for long.

 

[Justcrazy]

Styen might be used in short bursts here.

 

[Kianig89]

steyn to lefty

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan should look to see off this initial burst .

 

[KA$H]

Time for some tuk tuk

These opening bowlers only have 3 overs each left in em

 

[Kianig89]

that was 90mph

 

[GreenKnightRises]

1(17). legendary batting

 

[Kianig89]

if not for these girls the stadium attendance is ZERO

 

[Red Devil]

Thats four

 

[Justcrazy]

Styen is bowling beautifully here.

 

[Kianig89]

:4

 

[Kianig89]

its a :4

 

[Premier Cricketer]

:4

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Shan please take a single in the last bowl of every over. it is really paining to watch Azhar bat.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Can't lose another wicket this session.

Come on boys

 

[Kianig89]

Steyn hitting 90MPH

 

[Bullet Drive]

Please back off Azhar.

He's struggling out their but he's still their unlike Khurram.

 

[Justcrazy]

7 / 1

 

[chaiwala]

Azhar looks clueless. That was an ordinary delivery on leg stump, and he completely misjudged the line.

 

[MVP26]

Azhar Ali is just surviving

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan would need at least 3 good partnerships here, to post a good total.

 

[taqi]

missed a leg side delivery

 

[KA$H]

Yea quit the moaning haz. It's getting boring.

 

[Justcrazy]

Azhar problem is that his inability to rotate the strike , just defending is not enough.

 

[Justcrazy]

Azhar is very limited player , probably most limited in Pakistan history.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Keep the South Africans quite!

 

[MVP26]

Wake me up when Azhar gets out

 

[Bullet Drive]

Azhar looks clueless. That was an ordinary delivery on leg stump, and he completely misjudged the line.

He does.

Out of form.

Quality batsman.

 

[Justcrazy]

Another good over by Philander

 

[Kianig89]

6 overs gone 8-1

 

[Justcrazy]

SA have a plan of keeping things tight here, they want to choke Pakistan here. Good tactics.

 

[Kianig89]

takes a single

 

[Red Devil]

Here comes Chisti

 

[Justcrazy]

Even singles have dried up here

 

[Bullet Drive]

Pressure levels slightly off now.

 

[Major]

is the crowd chantting mIsbah?

 

[Haroon786]

Cmon Pak.

 

[Haroon786]

Steyn is ATG.

 

[KB-24]

innings going no where

 

[Haroon786]

Perhaps Azhar is playing out new ball.

 

[MRSN]

good shot from Shan.

 

[ScotRaz]

Steyn is ATG.

What's ATG?

 

[Boi]

Azhar looks horribly out of form and very low on confidence. He needs to stick it out though.

 

[Red Devil]

Nice shot

 

[saiyan0312]

Glad to see i didnt miss much of the match in my absence,. nice shot for three.

 

[Justcrazy]

10 / 1

 

[saiyan0312]

What's ATG?

All time garbage,,,, Hitman thats a nice find...

 

[Bullet Drive]

Azhar Ali who usually flicks those for four is missing leg side deliveries.

Never seen him so bad.

 

[Red Devil]

What's ATG?

All time great

 

[Haroon786]

10/1.

 

[saiyan0312]

better shot by azhar.

 

[imshally81]

Another Big over of Pak Innings... 5 runs in it

 

[saiyan0312]

Azhar needs a massive run score to get back in form.

 

[Haroon786]

SA have two.batsmen less.

 

[saiyan0312]

Much better and two runs.

 

[Justcrazy]

14 / 1

 

[MRSN]

that's more like Azhar...

 

[Kianig89]

this could be steyn's last over

 

[saiyan0312]

I thought steyn was injured... he looks like he will bowl the next ten overs.

 

[saiyan0312]

147.4 kph!!

 

[imshally81]

What about the pitch ???

 

[Red Devil]

147 kph

 

[saiyan0312]

well good he didnt chase that wide bouncer....

 

[GreenKnightRises]

This is killing to watch Azhar bat

 

[Haroon786]

Just need to. Play out the swing.

 

[Justcrazy]

16 / 1

 

[saiyan0312]

Nice shot

 

[Red Devil]

I thought steyn was injured... he looks like he will bowl the next ten overs.

Yeah no signs of any injury he looks super fitu

 

[Haroon786]

Pace like fire from Steyn

 

[MRSN]

good straight drive for 3..

 

[Premier Cricketer]

Everyone calm down and let Azhar play, the guy is fighting his way back into form. The same guy who you are calling limited and hopeless is the same man who helped us win a Test Match here against the then no.1 in the world, England.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Morkel in

 

[Haroon786]

Need 50 runs partnership from these two, preferably 100 tuns.

 

[Red Devil]

Morkel on now

 

[saiyan0312]

Morkel in... these are supposed to be his conditions.

 

[Haroon786]

Even Philander's pace is up.

 

[saiyan0312]

wide bowls... is he tempting shan masood.

 

[Justcrazy]

19 / 1

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Good start for us in a flat pitch. Thanks to some awkward batting from Azhar
