Pakistan vs South Africa: 1st Test: Day 1 from Centurion

24 overs before new ball is available. So we should make at least 100 runs in those overs which mean 4 an over. After the new ball is taken just play normal cricket.

From Cricbuzz:

What a session this has been for the Pakistanis!!! They have dominated it right from the word go and once again we saw Younis Khan delivering the goods for his side when it was most needed and not to forget the great support he was provided with from the other end, Yasir Hameed. Both of them are going strong with half a ton under their belt. The Protean bowlers looked lacklustre and failed to pose any threat to the Pakistani batting. The South Africans would have to get things sorted out and have to chip in with wickets right from the time when they come out after tea. If the duo stays for another hour or so, then the South Africans are in for a big chase in the first innings itself and there is good amount of batting to follow after this. I also need a cup of tea and will be back with all the action in about 20 minutes time from now.

This makes tendulkar the best batsmen in the world? :20: :))
 
Yasir often gets fifties and throws it away around 60-70 run stage. I hope desperately he gets a century, he needs it and so does the team!
 
am goin out in 30 mins..n I better see a wicket before I leave...I hate to go out with my mood off!
 
why is it tht i can predict at least 75% of words rameez will say in about 15 minutes of his commentating
 
excellent 2nd session....Pakistan needs to loose not more than 2 wickets in this session...240+ /4 with Inzi or Younis Khan at the wicket at the end of the day would be just an sideal start for Pakistan...

lets hope the Pakistani players stick to their plan!
 
Nauman I never said 300 is a good score.
The pitch stats show that the average score is 361 (since 2000)
So 350/360 is the par score and 400 is a good score.

Tendulkar has the most runs scored by any batsmen when playing outside his country that tells you something BOY. Instead of wasting your time wabbling crap go tell your boy Dravid to watch Younis Khan bat and try and learn something :19:
 
could this finally be the series where pakistan lays the african ghosts to rest?

Yes I think so,, this is it. Unlike the coward that plays for India, INZI will make sure Pakistan wins the series.. :14:
 
ok first goal is archived. Runrate is now 3.0. Lets ad 0.2 more to that.
 
I don't know waht match to watch. Pakistan vs SA or Romali vs Jusarrived? :)))

Man you are demanding...

You think they have time to figure out how many more per over to add that 0.20 to the run rate

On a serious note, Mashallah Pak doing good so far :19:

Pakistan once again proving all those wrist slitters wrong? I thought we were going to crumble against the pace and bounce of Ntini/Nel etc.
 
60.6 Nel to Yasir Hameed, no run, on a length, but well outside the off stump, left alone. Nel doesn't want Yasir to feel alone in the middle. Has a few things to say. Hameed ignores him and walks across to have a chat with Younis.
Click to expand...

Well done Yasir, just ignore the retard
 
ohh damn Younis out, doesnt matter still an awesome innings that Rahul Dravid can only dream of playing :19: ... Well Played :14: ..
 
and Younis once again throws his wicket away after a good start. really pathetic stuff from YK

Just when Pakistan were stamping their authority.

No more quick wickets. Inzy dont get lbw please. And Yaseer don't lose concentraion you have to get a100 now.

INZI is in, as everyone here knows I dont rate him highly as a batsmen. Lets see if he can prove me wrong......

its inzis big chance now

we need a big double hundred from him
Click to expand...

Pahleeeeeez no demand of double hundred, lets hope no other wicket falls today
 
Why some pple think INZI is not good enough to be labelled as world class batsman???
 
Hameed in sucide mode.

his last 2 scoring shots have been skiers ... gl to hameed
 
62.4 Nel to Yasir Hameed, 2 runs, Yasir continues to go for his risky pull shots. Again from well outside off stump. It falls in no-man's land to the right of mid-on. Beaten by the extra bounce. Almost suicidal batting, this.

Why cant Yasir controll his urge for the pull shot????
 
i dunno. what's going on wid this pull shot. every1 pulling as if they r some hookers on the street.
 
we need snother good partnership from these two. Which mean Hameed will have to make 100 which is unlikely.
 
Is there a Hakeem out there who has told Pak team to play nothing but pull shots...lets see if they try to do the same to paul Harris too?

yeah but at least Inzy is playing it down unlike hameed. I don't think fisher men have good enogh muscles to pull anything. :)))

R u a real Turk or a Pakistani born in Turkey?
Click to expand...

I am a born and bred Turk who was intoduced to cricket by a very close Pakistani friend,

hence when it comes to cricket I am Pakistani.
 
Pakistan have to calm down a bit and not go for every short ball that is bowled. They are committing suicide by employing this tactic.
 
Like dog pound says Suicide is a Suicide; why the hell did he go for that pull shot :30: ?
 
brainless...lets hope inzi can stick around and we can get a decent score on the board..im not sure faisal can handle the short stuff..
 
this is what we call self destruction....Pakistan here giving away the Test to South African by playing some really poor cricket now....two new batsmen now on the crease....they just can't afford to loose 1 more wicket now or else the whole advantage will go with South Africa

these scenes just reminds me of the series in Australia where we had good starts but batsmen threw their wickets away at crucial stages & lost the series 3-0

OIC but how do you follow cricket livingin Turkey ? Do you watch cricket in Turkey on a regular basis? :11:
 
what was yasir hameed playing at..in fact what are pakistan playing at...whats with the rush...? suddenly their game plan has changed..why chase crap deliveries?
 
Well, got to go..... hoping that Pakistan makes some good score......
 
FI is a pretty crap batsmen, if I were Smithy I would have Ntini and Pollock bowl for rest of the day and try and wipe out the tail.. oh wait there is Asim Kamal? he may do alright I rate him quite high
 
what the hell is going on?
Is Yasir playing as stupidly as cricinfo is describing it.
UNBELIEVABLE!
This is why his fans shouldnt complain when he is dropped, EVEN AFTER he plays well for a 60 odd.
You wont select a batsman who just SUDDENLY loses his head. To the point of actually being retarded.
How many pulls shots does he have to miscue to realize that its not working for him. A selector and coach would obvously conclude tha if this kid doesnt learn from such OBVIOUS mistakes, there seems to be no point.
 
I have a feeling Woolmer or SOMEone said something to the effect of "dont be afraid to pull or hook".
but our guys have let it seemingly become a matter of pride now.

no asim but kamran akmal
 
Akmal NEEDS to bat well since im basically discounting Iqbal form the equation. Akmal also likes to pulls though.
