Pakistan vs South Africa | 2nd Test | 23/11/2010 | Abu Dhabi | Day 4 : Session 3

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

I waited long enough for this one .. no one created it .. I want them to stop the flow of runs

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

at this rate sounds like .. they will have 350+ before the end of play ... they can make pakistan bat even today .. for a bit .....

 

[hur rizvi]

HAFeez into the attack


Good change

 

[hur rizvi]

PAthetic captaincy from misbah .....


We need some fielders to stop the singles

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

I don't what misbah is trying here ... he aint trying to pick up wickets ... nor he is able to stop the singles to build up pressure .... wake up misbah wats the plan ?

 

[rarara01]

hafeez very nice

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

Finally the beautiful bowl to Amla .... now rehman get into more action

 

[JibranAnsari]

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

in the last 10 overs the pace of scoring runs has gone down .... we should put more pressure ... to block the runs ... & wickets will come

 

[Batman]

South Africa | 2/126 | 26 Overs | Lead by 276 runs

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

Come on guys get one more wicket now now

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

seems like the chance went down

 

[Rizie]

what happened to Smith?

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

what happened to Smith?

he went for X-ray .... feels like he has broken his thumb

 

[Rizie]

:aaali to bat 90 overs tomorrow

 

[Rizie]

he went for X-ray .... feels like he has broken his thumb

came to his mind

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

15 more overs left in the day ...... @ its unlikely SA will feel safe to delcare today evening ....

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

came to his mind

it happened during the fielding ... his thumb was already bruised

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

Well Done HafeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeZ kallis gone ..... boom boom .. .bring it on SA @ AB cheater who edged it in 1st innings.. but didn't look behind to give wrong impression ..... so its getting more itneresting

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

drying up runs ... is working for Pakistan ... as SA looking to score runs quickly ... may be they have to rethink their plan

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

Just keep blocking runs ... rest will follow well done so far

 

[Sledger]

Well bowled by Rehman, lazy fielding there.

 

[imshally81]

Good bowling by AR

 

[Batman]

South Africa | 4/150 | 36 Overs | Lead by 300 runs

2 off the over!

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

13 more overs to go in a day .... for the next innings . they will lose ..... 2 overs & let say .... if they lose another 2 for light .... which means 9 overs ..... in which they have to delcare & bowl some to pakistan ... delcaration today look out of the picture now

 

[hayat]

kallis out

 

[MIG]

The lead is high enough - dont think we will bother with a chase.

 

[Impala_KaifTamasha]

Should bowl em out for 163

 

[Ismailtoca]

Good fight shown by Pakistan so far

 

[MIG]

kallis out

Yes - one can say that.

 

[Ismailtoca]

The lead is high enough - dont think we will bother with a chase.

Remember smith is not playing (injury) We still have a decent chance by going for it

 

[Batman]

South Africa | 4/153 | 37 Overs | Lead by 303 runs

3 off the over!

 

[ZAK]

153/4.

 

[Sledger]

300+ lead now.

 

[oracleg]

Can't see them declaring this evening. The South Africans play safe, risk-less cricket. Been that way since their re-introduction in 92. A more aggressive team would have had Pakistan batting by now chasing around 350.

 

[JibranAnsari]

south africa killing the match

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

The lead is high enough - dont think we will bother with a chase.

Well in the last game ... SA didn't do that around 380 ... they went on scoring 450+ as target for fourth innings .... looking at this track don't see if they will try it

 

[imshally81]

draw ????

 

[Batman]

South Africa | 4/155 | 38 Overs | Lead by 305 runs

2 off the over!

 

[MIG]

Remember smith is not playing (injury) We still have a decent chance by going for it

Smith isnt a bowler! Even without Smith as a batsman, they have a decent lead.

 

[ZAK]

155/4.

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

10 more overs in day .... I don't think they will declare until they feel we r out of the game

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

I am happy with work hafeez is doing

 

[Batman]

South Africa | 4/156 | 39 Overs | Lead by 306 runs

1 off the over!

 

[Sledger]

I think Smith will probably still take the field.. might even bat yet.

 

[ZAK]

156/4.

 

[akamaka]

They will probably be looking to set a total of around 400. So that means they will bat tomorrow for a while as well.

 

[Impala_KaifTamasha]

306 run lead

 

[duostyle]

The best bowling side in the world should declare after such a big lead.

Or are they scared of Pakistan?

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

They will probably be looking to set a total of around 400. So that means they will bat tomorrow for a while as well.

if thats the plan then they will need some part of tomorrow's 1st session .... I guess they have fair enough lead to feel safe for a day .. so they might not even bat tomorrow ... put in pakistan .... tomorrow morning

 

[ZAK]

157/4.

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

what happened to Smith?

Already told you , he has left for hospital ... for X-ray .... he hasn't come back & there is no update available on him for now

 

[Eht]

Adnan Akmal : lage raho lage raho

hahaha

 

[spoiled]

south africans have seen the turn out there and so they might be confident that their spinners can easily get pak out tomm. hence declare tomm.

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

Good bowling another madien so they will keep on spinners for today ...... SA can choose to give us time in middle tomorrow straight away ... which gives both team chance to go for a win ... where as it will be tough call ... comparing to last test .. where they didn't feel safe to delcare ... until 450+
