Pakistan v Sri Lanka | 1st Test | Day 1 | Abu Dhabi | 18/10/11

[JibranAnsari]

Yar , Misbah made the same mistake against zimbabwe but we got away as it was zimbabwe.

 

[Shahid20Ten]

the worst decision of the year by any caiptain to bowl first on such flat track

 

[ethan hunt]

junaid khan seems to have put on a couple of centimetres to his biceps ..

 

[Watsupdoc]

Should have batted first

 

[SwingNSeam]

Hope he realizes he made a mistake..

 

[Friend786]

waqar mentions aamer

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan winning toss and bowling 1st? strange again by Misbah however lets see where we are at end off the day to see if this decision is justified or not!

 

[Phool]

SL batsmen showing good temprament

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan need atleast 2 wickets before lunch here!

 

[Watsupdoc]

Maybe I should have included Sri Lankan openers in my fantasy team... would have at least gotten loads of point.

Ajmal gonna go for 10 runs in this over...

 

[Friend786]

ajmal is on !

 

[SwingNSeam]

on!! finally...lets get'em!!

 

[Phool]

Saeed Ajmal comes

 

[Strike!]

Little amount of turn.

 

[imshally81]

why junaid is playing... is riaz injured ??

 

[Shahid20Ten]

the Sri Lankan are in a mod to go more than 500

 

[Phool]

pressure on the PK bowlers

 

[Watsupdoc]

man nothing is happening... pitch is flat, bowlers are flat and even the batsmen are flat...

 

[osee_bhai]

Frig man these SL openers are putting me to sleep.

 

[*sallu*]

pitch is too flat, boring draw again...

 

[Watsupdoc]

why junaid is playing... is riaz injured ??

MHK probably found that Junaid was bowling in the nets better than Riaz. That could be the only reason. Though Riaz here would have been very handy...

 

[SwingNSeam]

Spinners getting no turn, comfortable ball bounce...so much for the moisture

 

[SwingNSeam]

:cheema on

 

[Watsupdoc]

can cheema bring it back in?

 

[Fawad2010]

138 from Cheema, I think fastest today so far?

 

[osee_bhai]

Oh man so close to the outside edge, good ball by Cheema.

 

[Phool]

 

[SwingNSeam]

can cheema bring it back in?

From the angle it seems kinda hard to do.

 

[Fawad2010]

Come on Cheema!

You got it Brother!

 

[Watsupdoc]

Don't mind the boundary. A catch will come soon Insha'ALLAH.

 

[SwingNSeam]

[Fawad2010]

[JibranAnsari]

Two maidens to start up for Ajmal

 

[SwingNSeam]

[Fawad2010]

Guys if we don't get a wicket before lunch, I'll go to sleep. If we get a wicket, I'll keep watching.

 

[Strike!]
