Pakistan vs England ~ First Test ~ Lords ~ Day One [Update Thread]

[Amir]

Dun dun dunnnn. So far the contest is living up to expectations, its a bit like one of the Ashes mornings so far, where all there is between the 2 teams is another wicket or another 50 partnership.

Time for Colly to make some runs I think. He hasnt contributed many important runs since the India century, and has done well against these bowlers in the past.

I am not happy with the KP decision but he has been lucky in the past with lbws, it evens itself out. Potentially big wicket though!

Please no mention of Ashes. We don't care if we are like the Ashes or if the Ashes is 4 months away, or that the Ashes trophy looks much prettier.

 

[Sultan Yusuf]

Don't you have some hole in the ground where you should be?

Not really....shouldn't ur face be up some other hole that u normally frequent?

or if the Ashes trophy looks much uglier, or if it looks smaller now.

[Amir]

Naved, out of curiousity, are you a Pakistani?

 

[Muhammad]

I think he's getting his wides and no balls mixed up!

 

[Sultan Yusuf]

No, you are mistaking me for you. That is you up Irfan Pathan's.

Yea well done...

 

[zMario]

you what??

I thought Sami got no balled, cause the ball looked like it bounces 3 times on the pitch )

So even when I am complimenting your team by saying that your team is giving England an exciting and comeptitive session of cricket, no mention of Ashes? Get over yourself please.

 

[RX]

I was merely joking.

 

[Amir]

Don't you have some begging to do?

 

[Shayan]

danish on

 

[Rana]

dani boy on now!

 

[safehands46]

martin crowes speech is on. we might be able to hear exactly what he says bbc says.

And then they are asking for opinions during tea.

well i am going to bed class tomorrow.

 

[Nauman]

Danish Kaneria in the attack now.

 

[Pathan007]

15 bonus runs so far to Enagland. Cook 15*

 

[Sultan Yusuf]

Naved, out of curiousity, are you a Pakistani?

I am indeed, and you?

 

[RX]

Don't you have some begging to do?

right...

 

[zMario]

Whippy. This is a CIVILIZED thread about the first test match between Pakistan and England. Now while you may brag about what you did a year ago, we don't. We brag about what we've done recently

Dare I mention what we did to you last winter?

 

[James]

I was merely joking.

Good stuff

Tbh Bell should probably be batting ahead of Collingwood. Either way, the next few batsmen in will just push singles all day and thats what we need at the moment I'm afraid.

 

[Rana]

a decent shout straight away

 

[Shayan]

colly goes for big shot, lands safe.

You've got the wrong end of the stick over this situation, and its been sorted anyway.

 

[Amir]

I am indeed, and you?

Sorry, I mistakened you for being something else. I don't think ever seen you cheer for Pakistan so you must understand why I had some apphrensions.

 

[zMario]

HOWZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT

You know, these umpires have to be racist now!

 

[Easa]

Lofted in the air - not timed thouh.

 

[zMario]

Oh wow, some shot, Kaneria shouted catch it lool

 

[the_game]

I am indeed, and you?

More like a dhabba on the name of any Pakistani, but anyway.

 

[Amir]

Good stuff

Tbh Bell should probably be batting ahead of Collingwood. Either way, the next few batsmen in will just push singles all day and thats what we need at the moment I'm afraid.

I rate Bell as a good player, because he proved everyone wrong in the sub con. I feel the English managemnt does not rate him highly.

 

[hassan_21]

I am indeed, and you?

so why do you refuse to be happy for Pakistan, and Pakistani cricketers? seems like youre unhappy even when we're taking wickets. kind of sad really, but then everything that comes out of your mouth seems to be that way.

 

[zMario]

Stumping chance!!!

 

[MIG]

So Naved - your views on the match so far ?

 

[Shayan]

shut up mate, he didnt brag about the ashes at all

 

[Rana]

that wasnt out, great delivery though

 

[Nauman]

Ok guys no more fighting, the only type of bashing allowed in this thread is Sami bashing. Anything else I will delete it

 

[Easa]

That was a great delivery from Danish.

 

[zMario]

Hummmmm lool

 

[pak4life]

4-0 is in a hurry

 

[Fessal]

to hell with the ashes. all english talk about is the ashes especially after winning the last one by the skin of there teeth. it's as if only aus exsists and rest is no competition. For that reason the poms deserve hammering by every team including Aus.

 

[MIG]

Bucknor is about to go into super sulk mode if appeal too much - yah bhee problem hai barray mian kay saath!

Score:

108/3

 

[Easa]

Really good first over from Kaneria.

 

[Amir]

So Naved - your views on the match so far ?

Pakistan just crap, just crap.

That is what he would say.

 

[Sultan Yusuf]

Sorry, I mistakened you for being something else. I don't think ever seen you cheer for Pakistan so you must understand why I had some apphrensions.

Oh how witty....

Your apprehensions are the result of your inability to look at the bigger picture

 

[Fessal]

Ok guys no more fighting, the only type of bashing allowed in this thread is Sami bashing. Anything else I will delete it

got it... sami is bowling like humpty dumpty.

 

[Nauman]

I think that was LBW

 

[Easa]

He was dropped on his head when he was a little boy. Leave him alone hassan.

)

 

[Shayan]

think that kaneria appeal should've been lbw

 

[Rana]

4-0 is in a hurry

....to get out

 

[Shayan]

110 for 3, cook on 17, colly on 10

 

[Amir]

Oh how witty....

Your apprehensions are the result of your inability to look at the bigger picture

That bigger picture being....that you were some former player dropped and treated unfairly by PCB, tehrefore you refuse to cheer for any team organized by them?

My inability to looking at the bigger picture lies in that THERE IS NO BIG PICTURE. You are just trying to sound smart.

 

[zMario]

got it... sami is bowling like humpty dumpty.

Thats my quote!!!

DELETE IT NAUMAN, ITS BASHING!

 

[Easa]

110-3 25 overs gone.

 

[zMario]

Oh wait, no it isnt, cuz its the truth

 

[hassan_21]

Oh how witty....

Your apprehensions are the result of your inability to look at the bigger picture

so bashing Gul and Inzi after 10 overs of a 5 day match is your idea of looking at the BIGGER picture? Wah bhai Wah!

 

[zMario]

Wohooo page 15

 

[ali kc]

Salaam Everyone!

Just woke up to first days play 108-3

Razzaq getting peitersen

 

[Sultan Yusuf]

Oh dear - seems like I've upset a few people on here.....if I remember correctly, I'm not the one who's insulting Sami on this thread...

I only criticise the team, because I want the best for Pak cricket - and currently, we have too much cr4p in our team for my liking...

 

[Rana]

it was libw no doubt

 

[Easa]

Great delivery, big spin

 

[CricVet]

Dani is turning, and turning big

 

[Nauman]

Hawkeye confirms that was lbw.

 

[zMario]

Ahyhahahah that LBW shout was OUT!

 

[MIG]

Yaar guys - cmon - first day of the series and so much bakwas - pls dont insult each other - every one can have their views - like it or lump it.

 

[zMario]

Yay, lots of spin!

 

[hassan_21]

My inability to looking at the bigger picture lies in that THERE IS NO BIG PICTURE. You are just trying to sound smart.

you know I have a theory about that one. Naved's views are strikingly similar to one left handed opener we had who just happened to disgrace himself in India in a world cup match. hmmm.....

 

[Amir]

And we have some crap fans...

 

[James]

It was lbw, but KP arguably wasnt lbw, it evens out

As predicted, the TMS squad are already writing England off as I speak, despite the fact they are playing on quite a bowler friendly pitch and we have to see both teams bat before we can judge. You should be talking about this test match, not saying 'if England lose their top order again and Shoaib Akhtar is brought on, wellll.....", followed by a nervous silence, in that annoying Aggers fashion.

 

[Nauman]

Gotto agree with you there.

 

[alghazzali]

Danish seems to be getting alot of turn.

 

[ali kc]

Kaneria getting lots of turn....
Im getting a feeling he'll run thru the Eng batting ... Inshallah

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Turn.....Sharp turn!

 

[Sid100]

i'd settle for 3 wickets before Lunch after loosing the toss. i dont know what naved thinks

 

[zMario]

I think if Kaneria bowls 3 balls outside off stump (leggies), then 1 ball outside off stump as googly/wrong un, he'll pick up a wicket frequently

 

[Amir]

Yaar guys - cmon - first day of the series and so much bakwas - pls dont insult each other - every one can have their views - like it or lump it.

Yeah I can understand, but when you only appear when Pakistan are not doing well...than you have to expect some stick. Its like when a Indian only posts when India do well and we all give them stick.

Nothing wrong with ridiculing the ridiculious.
