[pak4life]

buknor retire nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

 

[MIG]

In a meeting, just come out - have we won yet ?

 

[James]

I think he nicked it

Oh well, never mind, very sorry, ah dang

 

[HAFRIDI]

Why not experiment? Salu, Farhat,Afridi?

 

[shan]

What **** umpire bukcner is

 

[Oxy]

Racist umpires...

Who are the umps?

 

[HAFRIDI]

dam! nm!

 

[Nauman]

Razzaq in now

 

[James]

Racist umpires...

Like when KP was given wrongly out and there were suspicions of a nick on the lbw of Strauss, very racist against Asians. Bomb the ICC.

 

[Nauman]

Who are the umps?

Tauffel and Bucknor

 

[shan]

There was a chance for Kaneria to get a wicket before giving 100 runs.

 

[Billy]

Looked out live to me.

They've seemingly got all the close decisions right only to drop a couple of clangers.

 

[iZeeshan]

So Razzaq isn't injured...

This poses a few more questions...

 

[Imran_The Man!]

Replays and Holding (!) comfirming that ball from Kaneria was out.

 

[shan]

One question. is there any pakistani commentater in sky Team?

 

[MIG]

As they say back home - "cheating ka badla zaroor millay ga... haanjee!"

 

[jusarrived]

slightly in englands favour now...pakistan need atleast 2 wikts before score reaches 250!

 

[Oxy]

Tauffel and Bucknor

So its unfair to call them racist!

 

[Nauman]

So its unfair to call them racist!

I didnt call them someone else did.

 

[Oxy]

One question. is there any pakistani commentater in sky Team?

None on the radio - but I prefer NOT to have any.

 

[Uzzy]

One question. is there any pakistani commentater in sky Team?

Just Ramiz Raja.

 

[iZeeshan]

One question. is there any pakistani commentater in sky Team?

Ramiz Raja

 

[Nauman]

Damn you Kaneria caught and ball dropped

 

[Nauman]

The guy cant even hold onto the ball even if his life depended on it.

 

[UJ]

ohhhh...damn

 

[jusarrived]

you gotta be lucky to get a good decision from Bucknor these days!

 

[James]

None on the radio - but I prefer NOT to have any.

Ramiz did a stint in morning session, I like to have a non-Eng commentator myself, one from the country of the opposing team; it gives more variety and interest.

Lol at the Monty esque moment!

 

[Oxy]

Regulation catch - should have taken it.

 

[MIG]

Nauman can you describe the event in more detail pls ?

 

[shan]

Kaneriaaaaaaaaaa

 

[Nauman]

197/3

 

[zMario]

Dropped...

 

[iZeeshan]

This really can't be happening...

 

[Nauman]

Nauman can you describe the event in more detail pls ?

Flighted ball just outside offstump Cook plays it straight to Kaneria and he makes a hash of it.

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

i guess pakistan wants cook to score a century here if not a double.........nice going boys

 

[majalani]

Danish Kaneria to Cook, no run, oooh! What a beauty! A corker, jaffer and all that jazz; the googly, turns a mile and takes Cook’s outside edge through to Akmal. Thin edge, but Bucknor turns it down! Well well well.
Bucknor should retire he is too old now to see & or hear the edge

 

[Oxy]

I like to have a non-Eng commentator myself and one from the country of the opposing team, it gives more variation.

I dont think they add value, unless they go for a quality 'no-name' journalist who knows his stuff - but alas, they go for the 'ex-pro' who cant put 2 words together...

 

[Nauman]

4 by Cook and brings up his 50

 

[iZeeshan]

Let's enjoy a good old sack race...

 

[pak4life]

johnty rhodes what a waste of money!

 

[IMMY69]

plain and simple...danny dopped the dolliest of dolly caught and ball chances

 

[Nauman]

210/3

 

[inzidabest]

Inzidabest - New fielding coach for Pakistan.

 

[inzibhai]

ok guys chill now ...watch out for eng collapse...eng will be 289 all out...

 

[mulan]

Hey, don't blame Jonty...

I think with all these dropped chances, the law of averages need to kick in soon (can't drop them all)

 

[IMMY69]

ridiculous fiuelding by the paks...first farhat...who absolutely made a hash of it at secdon slip to let off cook before he was off the mark and now danny dropping a sitter...

 

[inzidabest]

Is Kaneria wearing goggles and bowling

 

[Oxy]

law of averages need to kick in soon (can't drop them all)

You wanna bet

 

[inzibhai]

so who is a better fielder ?danny or monty/

 

[Oxy]

so who is a better fielder ?danny or monty/

Nothing to split them...

 

[Muhammad Saad]

No he is bowling with tape on his eyes

 

[the Great Khan]

we could be looking at a massive total against us unless we get two quick wickets before the end..!!...damn bowling!..and once again sami does nuthin..

 

[Nauman]

Another 4 and I am signing off

 

[James]

Cook hasnt been at his best but all you can do is make the most of these opportunities. In a few days, people will remember how many runs you scored, not how you scored them.

4 more byes. Disapointing amount of extras from Pak tday.

 

[UJ]

4 byes...was the googly

 

[IMMY69]

also, why the hell is danny continuously bowling round the wicket to collingwood???? such negative bowling...

 

[inzidabest]

I am a better fielder

 

[IMMY69]

Another 4 and I am signing off

ditto

 

[inzidabest]

and I am a better bowler too

 

[James]

so who is a better fielder ?danny or monty/

Monty's fielding was pretty good in India apart from the infamous Dhoni incident in Mumbai, but he made up for it a few balls later anyway. Monty is better coz I cant remember Kaneria ever having a decent fielding series.

 

[Uzzy]

The amount of extras is a joke. Completely the opposite of how diciplined our bowling was in SL.

 

[wsc]

appropriate that you're poor fielding is costing you dearly.

pak team really need to pay attention to their fielding for once. they have never taken it seriosly.

 

[Sultan Yusuf]

Well Danny did say he "can cause problems"...

On another note, I wanna defend Sami - he's being harshly treated - all the bowlers have been poor....

 

[Muhammad Saad]

I am a better fielder

I dont know about your fielding but i can say surely that u r a better bowler than Muhammad Sami
EVERY MAN ON THE EARTH IS BETTER BOWLER THAN MUHAMMAD SAMI

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

dude wats going on here...afridi has only bowled one over......
kaneria has awful luck...
sami and gul are so inconsistent and medicore that even the lazy razzaq looks like the best bowler...
and afridi cant get his hands on the ball

 

[James]

The point about Jonty Rhodes was interesting, maybe he was a mole hired by the ECB?

4 runs to Cook! This is ace, good run rate and nice batting. Our batting has been very good tday you have to say, regardless of umpriing and fielding.

 

[zMario]

I'm really upset, I'm turning the TV off, and throwing it at my neighbors house, then running away.

Then I won't have to watch this horrible match

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Seriously guys Pakistan now days having a worst attack in last 35 years

 

[James]

Blofeld just mentioned 'Yousuf Mohammed's' fielding again, hopefully he reads the teamsheets before Pak bat because if MoYo plays a long innings it is going to get embarassing.

 

[inzidabest]

Tell you what , it is indeed poor cricket from Pakistn, they might win later, but this is poor cricket. Suddenly no 2 spot is not justified

 

[James]

Beast on, you must say it is overdue.

 

[zMario]

I was about to throw the TV out, when I saw AFRIDI IS BOWLING!

 

[Uzzy]

Finally Afridi is on.

 

[UJ]

^so is the use of that b word WS

 

[Oxy]

Tell you what , it is indeed poor cricket from Pakistn, they might win later, but this is poor cricket. Suddenly no 2 spot is not justified

Lets make it a 5 hour test match instead of 5 days then shall we?

 

[RX]

haha not again!

 

[Muhammad Saad]

I heard that Inzimam answering to geo that rao is coming to england tour ,so YEAH YEAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
OUR MATCH DESTROYER is coming to destroy the chances of losing 2-0 in to 4-0
hurray

hurray

hayyay

 

[Swaraj!!]

Something tells me that the only hope for a result in this test looks like the inherent "Sudden Collapsability" of both the teams involved. What do you say?

 

[Oxy]

Seriously guys Pakistan now days having a worst attack in last 35 years

*cant find the right response for that quote*

 

[zMario]

Great yorker by Razzaq, why can't Sami do that?
