Pakistan v Sri Lanka | 1st Test - Day 2 | Karachi | 22/2/09

[Islamabadi]

this pitch is horrible

 

[IronMan2009]

There is plan in danish kaneria's pies - cork is having fun at the expense of Kaneria

 

[wez4all]

pakistan has this tradition of bringing out of form players into form with dead wickets like we did for jaywardne.

 

[Da Best]

this pitch is horrible

Let's see how the Sri Lankans bowl then.

 

[minhasuz]

Gul should start firing yorkers

 

[MIG]

I predict a dramatic collapse by SL batsmen in the next 3 days. I believe that the human mind can only be subjected to so much ridicule - SL are not immune to Pakistani mind games.

 

[Da Best]

The pitch is not at all for bowling. Hope Lahore is better.

 

[minhasuz]

Dilshan is padded up too so SL is not in mood to dec/

 

[iafzal]

We need to quickly find a way to be able to forfit this match. We have Davies he may give us a hand can he?

 

[Islamabadi]

gul consistently throwing 125km/hr

You mean that there gonna bat for 3 days!!!!

 

[Genghis]

Cork has been interesting in the commentary. I think he's done a decent job.

 

[Da Best]

Slower ball.

 

[Da Best]

So Talha in for Sohail Khan is litterally confirmed now.

 

[minhasuz]

SLower ball or faster basically doesnt matter

 

[Islamabadi]

oh someone kill me please...this is torture

 

[minhasuz]

So Talha in for Sohail Khan is litterally confirmed now.

YUP

 

[minhasuz]

oh someone kill me please...this is torture

Me too

 

[Da Best]

Ok so how have they been bowling todya, better than yesterday???

 

[Islamabadi]

kaneria in to throw more pies

 

[minhasuz]

2 white people in crowd. I don't know how they got in Pakistan

 

[Da Best]

Me too

Same where!!

 

[wez4all]

kaneria is playing like its a county game

 

[Genghis]

Sangakarra got a 79 and he reckons he missed out. That tells you what a dead pitch this is.

 

[Da Best]

Pantership is now 342.

 

[Islamabadi]

kaneria is playing like its a county game

its worse than a county game

 

[Genghis]

2 white people in crowd. I don't know how they got in Pakistan

Part of PCB policy to get the aus/eng/NZ to come to Australia.

 

[iafzal]

Ok so how have they been bowling todya, better than yesterday???

Yes a tad bit better but umpires have not been too kind and the only possible chance we had was turned down

 

[Islamabadi]

Part of PCB policy to get the aus/eng/NZ to come to Australia.

u mean pakistan right

 

[Da Best]

Yes a tad bit better but umpires have not been too kind and the only possible chance we had was turned down

Thanks.

 

[iafzal]

2 white people in crowd. I don't know how they got in Pakistan

They are actually wearing makeup to look like white people. You know white people cannot get into Pakistan. Just ask the Aussie team.

 

[minhasuz]

The guy looks like Tait. Maybe YK called him

 

[Da Best]

That mis catch Misbah made yesterday made him get nightmares.

 

[Genghis]

Jayawardene with a double century ... Well played ... poorly bowled Pakistan!

 

[Islamabadi]

jaya with 200

 

[Islamabadi]

more torture

 

[Showman]

The guy looks like Tait. Maybe YK called him

I thought he looks like Keanu Reaves lol.

 

[Da Best]

Jayawardene with a double century ... Well played ... poorly bowled Pakistan!

More like why Misbah WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Genghis]

u mean pakistan right

yeah typo

 

[minhasuz]

Jaya. said Sawama. get your 200 then we will declare

 

[iafzal]

The guy looked a little gay to me, I thought he was butch at first

 

[wez4all]

pakistani players never get nightmeres specially if they digested ireland defeat. PCB never learns from mistakes.

 

[Da Best]

more torture

Exactly.

 

[Savak]

gul consistently throwing 125km/hr

Some spearhead.

 

[Genghis]

More like why Misbah WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Misbah just went up to shake his hand then aswell. Ah well I guess Misbah will be scoring a double century insha allah to match it up!

 

[Genghis]

Actually his 5th 200+ score ... not bad!

 

[iafzal]

Misbah just went up to shake his hand then aswell. Ah well I guess Misbah will be scoring a double century insha allah to match it up!

No Mahela was slipping him a $100 bill

 

[Islamabadi]

Some spearhead.

comon on just say it that u want fat and always injured shoaib

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

I wouldn't be surprised if both of them try to race after they each got 200..

 

[Islamabadi]

good fielding by gul

 

[Genghis]

Good fielding by Gul ... still some effort there in the field! Not over yet guys!

 

[OZGOD]

Gratz to Jayawardene for his double ton. Samaraweera may be joining him very soon too. Pak will be chasing 800 I reckon

 

[Savak]

comon on just say it that u want fat and always injured shoaib

Nope but a spearhead of the attack is supposed to set an example for others. Not drop his shoulders, resort to shortcuts and cutting down his speed and not even attempting to take wickets. Bottomline, Gul is not the total solution to our woes in the bowling department in test cricket. We need more pace and we need consistent pace.

I was expecting Gul to reduce his pace eventually. Its easier to bowl at full force in ODI's and T-20 games as oppossed to test cricket.

 

[minhasuz]

I still don't understand what is left to be laughed at. Why is YK and Gul still smiling?

 

[Genghis]

No Mahela was slipping him a $100 bill

I was going to say that too ... but thought it would be a bit harsh.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

What a test so far.............this is what we guys waited 14 months for....

 

[Savak]

I still don't understand what is left to be laughed at. Why is YK and Gul still smiling?

Its better than screaming, shouting and showing poor body language in the field. YK is only trying to get the players to calm down and not fall under excessive pressure.

 

[Genghis]

I still don't understand what is left to be laughed at. Why is YK and Gul still smiling?

I would rather have that then having him panicking. We haven't batted yet, so its still a draw to play for.

 

[iafzal]

I was going to say that too ... but thought it would be a bit harsh.

And seeing Pak get spanked left and right is not harsh?

 

[minhasuz]

What a test so far.............this is what we guys waited 14 months for....

Shabar Ka Pahal Metha Hai

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Their bowlers won't come to bat and we will be extremely tired...I feel sorry for Khurram and Butt.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Banner saying "Khurram Bhai we want century in both innings" Yeah right!

 

[Da Best]

Its better than screaming, shouting and showing poor body language in the field. YK is only trying to get the players to calm down and not fall under excessive pressure.

Agree.

 

[Genghis]

And seeing Pak get spanked left and right is not harsh?

Not really ... used to it by now!

 

[minhasuz]

Its better than screaming, shouting and showing poor body language in the field. YK is only trying to get the players to calm down and not fall under excessive pressure.

How much more should they calm now???

 

[Da Best]

A lot of pressure of Khurrum and Butt.

 

[wez4all]

What a test so far.............this is what we guys waited 14 months for....

very true

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Shabar Ka Pahal Metha Hai

14 months ke sabar ka abhi tak yeh phal mil raha hai! lol

Nah I know yaar InshahAllah hope our batters can do well too!

 

[minhasuz]

They should contact Hakeem for more details how not to be tired

 

[Islamabadi]

[Islamabadi]

You reckon they should start pulling their hair out as they are far away from digging the pitch up!

 

[Da Best]

Yasir Shah.

 

[Islamabadi]
