Butt gone! It could haveacually been seen, but I expected Fahat to go first. And Ramiz Raja must be ecstatic.

I hate to say it but that wasn't the best batting.

Neither of the England bowlers were posing much threat and it's not as if they needed to up the run rate.

Story of Butt's brief career....
 
so much for our specialists.....some things will never change...these specialist wont give us anything...malik is the answer.....
 
Amazin catch by Cauliflier - Iqbal is gone for a DUCK.

28-2
 
Harmison to Salman Butt, OUT, loose drive results in a thick edge which flies to second slip. Excellent catch by Strauss. Harmison has found his line at last – and got the reward. Faisal Iqbal strides in.

Only if we had cought like dat.
 
You can see why me and Ramiz aren't the biggest fans of Mr Butt. He is a specialist opener by that it means he only opens the innings but you wont see him in the field because he is fairly pathetic at fielding.
 
However, Colly cont. his purple patch and took one blinder.....

Faisal comes in, and walks out..

2//28
 
Iqbal in, let's see what he can do in Younis's position. I doubt he can do much we'll prolly be 2 down by the end of the day.

Holy ****, I was right. WHAT A WONDERFUL CATCH! Disgusting batting. Harmy has two.
 
Pakistan in trouble here....would like to have seen iNzi in but Yousuf comes in
 
Fine over by Harmy.

Double wkt maiden.

Eng will sleep well tonight.

Pak will.......
 
Awful batting if we're truthful.

Quite clearly the best way to play that delivery was to be down the other end.
 
Whatever, didn't expect much from Faisal Anyway.

Yousuf in, and bad attempt from Harmy, to get on a hat-rick

Well my bounce theory looks sound as far as what Harmy is extracting.

Hate to say I am right but I am and I take no pleasure in saying that. Bhanja will never succeed outside the subcontinent. Actually he is a poor batsmen against any half decent pacer period.

Top 3 is an onging problem. Butt is believing his own hype unfortunately. Farhat will never learn.
 
Calm now, it's cricket, batsmen have been known to get out once in a while...600+ is what i say
 
butt is no better than sami's case really.......sami will never learn and butt is joining yasir hameed in the fishing business
 
Ah man............good catch though, but still :S Good job Faisal, walking to field and back must have been an exercise.

*sigh*
 
Since the days of Mudasser/Mohsin, and then Saeed/Aamir....I've always been of the opinion that when Pak come out to bat, assume the score is 0-2.
 
Farhat - I think the team would like you stay in tonight..............MoYo really needs to slap him in public around the head!
 
UsmanhailsAfridi said:
our team sucks without younis and malik...really no depth watsoever....

I guess he's not good enough to edge them today
:D
 
I think those fans got the chanting wrong

:))) :)))

They were saying

ZINDABAD Pakistan ZINDABAD Pakistan ZINDABAD Pakistan

It sounded odd
 
I think butt needs to go back to his slash outside offstump days, now he hangs his bat, someone should tell him to be more agressive

Still can't bowl straight though! I wonder how quickly shine et al will be able to stop him falling over.

Don't you fear buddy Inshallah we gonna win this THING.

See what the people are doing in the ground take it from them.
Harmison to Imran Farhat, no run, angled across the lefthander. Pakistan may be in some trouble but their supporters are in hearty voice, with shouts of ‘Pakistan, Zindabad’ ringing out around Lord’s.

Then follows up with another boundary.
