what is the vice captain doing?

 

[Luton Bad Boy]

what is the vice captain doing?

Probably filing his nails.....

 

[Afridi_Fan]

I dont know from where we are going to get another wicket

 

[Islamabadi]

vice captain is useless...

 

[the true passionist]

SAF aren't going anywhere with this game either.
The run rate is pretty poor for this pitch, and Prince is 17 of 60.

South Africa are controlling the game.....they are the ones with over 300 on the board with 3 days to spare.....Pakistan will have to play really out of their skins to save this game

 

[Islamabadi]

crapinfo

Powar to Hayden, FOUR, tossed up on legstump and Hayden smacks his lips, gets on his haunches and sweeps savagely to fine leg for a four. Suddenly batting looks much easier than earlier

 

[saffer]

Relax boys . S.A could crumble very quickly if a wicket falls...we have a looooong tail with the bottom 4 being pretty useless .

on the path of victory SA...if they bat till tomorrow morning..Pakistan will struglle to bat for 3 days twice

 

[Afridi_Fan]

1 hour gone no brakethroughs as yet

 

[Lightning]

Both sides seemingly playing for a draw. Everything moving very slowly.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Relax boys . S.A could crumble very quickly if a wicket falls...we have a looooong tail with the bottom 4 being pretty useless .

But the point is wwho will get one wicket here?

 

[saffer]

This wicket wont suit devilliers....but boucher might enjoy having a go at the spinners.....

 

[Lightning]

Kaneria bowls a jaffa.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Good delivery by DK and i cant believe my eyes Akmal gathered that one, Oh I got it there was no edge so he gathered that

 

[Lightning]

Turn is there but not consistent. And of course DK is an overrated spinner.

 

[the true passionist]

Kaneria bowls a jaffa.

Yes, he is just 16 away before he starts taking wickets.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

150 for kallis and much more to come

 

[tauseefm]

Turn is there but not consistent. And of course DK is an overrated spinner.

very true... he bowles almost 100 overs and gets 5 wickeks.

 

[Lightning]

Prince just walking across and playing behind leg yet Malik still has no one behind square leg...

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Turn is there but not consistent. And of course DK is an overrated spinner.

I am sorry but i do agree with you,DK is over-rated and a brilliant fielder

 

[Lightning]

Haha, Kaneria tries to play football but still doesn't succeed.

 

[the true passionist]

Another pathetic fielding display by Kaneria.

 

[saffer]

Come on !!...that was pathetic fielding...have pakistan given up ?

 

[PlanetPakistan]

only thing that can bring PAK back in the game is a fiery spell of pace bowling!

 

[Lightning]

Man Kaneria seriously needs a flipper/slider. Looking very ordinary here, even on a wicket made for him. Though in all fairness, it's a little too slow even for him.

 

[tauseefm]

well, i am enjoying IND vs AUS match.. symond and hayden are just starting to speed up the run rate.

 

[tauseefm]

Man Kaneria seriously needs a flipper/slider. Looking very ordinary here, even on a wicket made for him. Though in all fairness, it's a little too slow even for him.

i heard he was working on tesra? what happend to it?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Seriously how many time DK has taken wickets on a track that is meant to be made for him because he is our so called trump card (Trash card for me)

 

[inzidabest]

only thing that can bring PAK back in the game is a fiery spell of pace bowling!

U mean Wasim Akram to bowl again for Pakistan

 

[Lightning]

I think I should do the same. Doesn't look like anything is going to happen here.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

danny will come good.

 

[madaboutlfc]

kallis once again showing why he is not in the same league as ponting and hayden with lack of urgency

 

[Imy]

This Track is not tailor made for him, lok at how slow the pitch is do you really expect him to take wickets when the turn is slow and even if he does get a knick guess who has to drop it

 

[Lightning]

i heard he was working on tesra? what happend to it?

Haha Teesra. This Kaneria first needs to learn how to drift the ball. I can't believe Pak made theri entire strategy around these two average spinners.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

After listening to Z Abbass i am sure you guys are missing R Raja

 

[the true passionist]

kallis once again showing why he is not in the same league as ponting and hayden with lack of urgency

he is currently focused on his 200

 

[saffer]

Kallis is very under-rated and doing the right thing. South Africa want to bat for as long as possible so that they only have to bat once and let the wicket decay .

 

[Lightning]

danny will come good.

After he gets Kallis to a double?

 

[PlanetPakistan]

I would bring M Hafeez on from A Rehman's end

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

DRAW at best for Pakistan...enuf said...this pitch is so slow...how come Pakistan can't come up with quick turners

 

[PlanetPakistan]

After he gets Kallis to a double?

eventually he will

 

[tauseefm]

damn, what a yorker by pathan.. hayden gone..


anyways, ICC should not allow test matches in pakistan untill we start making fast pitches

 

[Lightning]

Rehman seems extremely ordinary. Why couldn't we blood a promising youngster if we had too?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

LoLz Rehman is even better than Akmal and Butt

 

[Imy]

Rehman is such a crap fielder , can field cant bowl what can he do

 

[the true passionist]

was Zaheer always such a poor commentator?

 

[inzidabest]

wicketttttttttttttttttttttt..Hayden Out

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Gone
I dont believe this

 

[Islamabadi]

get rid of test cricket....

 

[madaboutlfc]

Kallis is very under-rated and doing the right thing. South Africa want to bat for as long as possible so that they only have to bat once and let the wicket decay .

kallis is only rated by southafricans.. he lacks the bottle to be a matchwinner.. south africa can keep batting at this rate... best result they can hope for then would be a draw

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Akmal Sahib takes a catch and Kallis cant get to his maiden 200

 

[tauseefm]

finally akmal has taken a catch..

 

[PlanetPakistan]

kaneria coming around the wicket

 

[PlanetPakistan]

well finally!

 

[madaboutlfc]

and the overrated one departs

 

[the true passionist]

Finally got him Kallis gone!

 

[Hash]

wicket?

well done.

By the way, why are SA batting so damn slowly?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

ABD is in

 

[Islamabadi]

yehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhyehhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[saffer]

Pakistan's best chance to do well would be on a fast turning pitch , like they found in South Africa . Asif , gul and Kaneria would make a good attack on that wicket ....but this cricjet is just rubbish .

As I say that , the wicket falls ! Kallis gone !

 

[kablooee87]

Shukar alhamdullillah.

 

[Bobaran]

Kallis out!!
Caught by Akmal!

 

[Islamabadi]

kami takes a catch...some1 please pinch me...am i dreaming

 

[the true passionist]

get rid of test cricket....

you should stop watching it!

 

[PlanetPakistan]

kallis is only rated by southafricans.. he lacks the bottle to be a matchwinner.. south africa can keep batting at this rate... best result they can hope for then would be a draw

I rate Kallis..with Flintoff struggling with injury and form Kallis is by far the best all rounder in the world now

 

[tauseefm]

ABD is in

yaar ABC hota hay ) ) ) yeh D kahan say aa gaya ...lol joking

 

[saffer]

and the overrated one departs

He averages 56 and people like you slag him off . As you demonstrate Underated is the only word for him .

 

[Afridi_Fan]

well good move,more close in fielders

 

[Hash]

if we can dump them for under 450, we still have a chance of winning this game.

Another couple by lunch please.

 

[CricketBuff]

We had to pay a very heavy price for Akmal dropping Kallis when he was on 36 !!!!!

 

[161]

mubarak ho ...

kaneria gets a wicket BEFORE giving up 100 runs

lodoos for everyone

 

[Imy]

Saffer he is a amazing technical batsmen but he is sooooo boring to watch thats why you cant compare him to the greats

 

[161]

ok ... now lets finish them off for under 600 !!

 

[PlanetPakistan]

wicket?

well done.

By the way, why are SA batting so damn slowly?

bowling has been good.

 

[madaboutlfc]

I rate Kallis..with Flintoff struggling with injury and form Kallis is by far the best all rounder in the world now

he used to be before he turned into a part time bowler.. still is the best allrounder as there arent any left..

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Would like A Rehman to bowl an arm ball to AB

 

[Islamabadi]

Abd abhi out ho ga

 

[PlanetPakistan]

ok ... now lets finish them off for under 600 !!

wow...you seem to have really high goals

353/4

 

[PlanetPakistan]

he used to be before he turned into a part time bowler.. still is the best allrounder as there arent any left..

he is still quite useful with the ball.
