feeling bad for pakistan. ABCD was out! it was big mistake.... pak could have turn the table had that out was given.
 
Bowlers are not bowling crap , this is a flat wicket and sa are under no pressure. Our batsmen crapped all over our bowlers.

We will see the same thing we saw in the first innings. New ball swing of steyn and batsmen playing rash and foolish shots looking like club level batsmen and much better catching and tight fielding.
 
I still can not believe Pak batting got out under 100 on this wicket.

:facepalm:
 
I am more worried can we bat like these two... if we want to keep this test alive then we need to bat like smith and AB and everyone must perform.
 
Our bowlers especially ajmal always do the dirty work and do not deserve the stick for one failure on a road and that toi after creating some chances which were happily not taken.

When a team scored more than 100 runs in a session don't blame the pitch is bad bowling

Agreed ! Dont want people whining of the pitch being flat ! Good bowlers will find ways to contain batsmen & pick up wickets on any track !

Sadly, that does not apply to our world class bowling line up !
 
130 runs scored so far in this session, partnership 196, that gentleman is bad bowling more than the pitch

Why are you even blaming the bowlers?

Irfan should have had AB caught first ball and Ajmal had him plumb. Don't blame the bowlers for other people's miscomings.

How mnay times have the batsman played and missed also even though one is on 150 and the other is in the 90's? The bowlers have bowled fine.

If our bowlers bowled to the PAK batsman they would roll them out for 100 every game. Look at what Babar done to them?
 
The way ABD and Biff are batting, it looks like SA is planning to declare in the 1st session of Day 3.
 
This has to be the worst commentary team ever...so dull and boring..pathetically trying to be funny...and the South African commentators are always known to be biased.

I am just glad ppl realizing we don't have world class bowling attack, we had balanced attack which was good in certain conditions but they are not world class. Ajmal has been down the hill since England

That umpiring decision was a poor one but AB has batted superbly and Biff has been even more impressive

Oh nothing taking from those two... AB took those chances with both hands and smith hardly had any flaws in this innings other then a slow and nervy start which was due to being out of form.

Impact outside.
 
Adnan said not out, ajmal wasn't convinced so why take the freaking review, that was one stupid review

Your job as a bowler is to pick wickets ! Fine, AB was dropped ! Why dont you try and get a tiring smith out?

If you're going to sit there and cry for a missed opportunity then God bless you !

Nobody asked them to use up their reviews in the first half hour.
 
Boundary and that brings up 200 run partnership between these two as well as AB's 100.

Yaar this is your 8th jinx. Remember the thread you made about Pakistan has a chance of beating Sa consecutively.. Well its impossible now. :P

Well well our Shaheen batsmen will bat for 6 to 7 session to save the match :p
 
My suggestion for Pakistanis - Forget about nationalites and root for ABD. You'll enjoy the game

This is cricket from time to time you're going to get a batsman who has played well and all you can do is hold your hands up and say well played.

But to people like you and many other people on this forum you think its unbelievably easy to get a world class player out.

If it's that easy get up from the chair you're sitting in and go do it yourself.
