12/0.

 

[Ismailtoca]

Smith should've declared after fourth day...

 

[atif.raza]

taufeeq is wasting balls

 

[Poison]

Taufeeq has come back a much better batsman mentally...with less shots

 

[Poison]

taufeeq is wasting balls

This is the aim

 

[NZPakistanFan]

I'm going to call it - Pakistan will crumble to 95/9 before blocks out 50 overs with Younis to save his career and earn him a tour of NZ!

 

[ads101]

Smith should've declared after fourth day...

safe option. imagine the reaction in south africa if he looses the series to Pakistan.

 

[NJamal]

Pakistan should bat watchfully till lunch.

 

[ZAK]

13/0.

 

[NJamal]

13/0

 

[atif.raza]

[Poison]

Pakistan should bat watchfully till end of play.

 

[Noork85]

Steyn really hunting here

 

[Poison]

Good to see Hafeez making a conscious decision not to play across his front pad.

 

[spoiled]

[Poison]

As I say that he plays one across his front pad

 

[ZAK]

14/0.

 

[Noork85]

Will it be easier when steyn n morkel r off?

 

[NJamal]

14/0 after 6 overs

 

[ads101]

Will it be easier when steyn n morkel r off?

nah spinners are harder to play on this pitch.

 

[Acim]

safe option. imagine the reaction in south africa if he looses the series to Pakistan.

Even if Pakistan manages to draw this test, he will come under heavy criticism for a negative declaration.

 

[Noork85]

Wheres everyone? In the morning it seems like everyone watched the match whereas it the time of the match it feels like only a handful watched it. Do people just catch the highlights? Thats no fun

 

[ZAK]

Single to Hafeez.

 

[imshally81]

Only 340 Required

anybody positive about winning this match? raise your hand please....

I feel very positive that Pakistan can and will chase this down, its not a huge total and this team is somewhat looking good, we' drew with 300+ for jus 3 wickets, making gud 50+ and y.khan making century, captain been in gud touch, opening been good and this team made 400+ for the first time this year...

So yes I have every reason to believe we can win this.

 

[Noork85]

Yayyyy

 

[Passion4Pakistan]

Assalam'walaykum to All Brothers over here..

 

[cricfan967]

I actually think South Africa have declared too early. This can be achieved, South Africa have made all three results available to Pakistan.

[SAF]

[ZAK]

[NJamal]

23/0 after 8 overs

 

[Noork85]

Geft,nice

 

[WithLoveFromCanada]

Need a 100 from Professor today

if we get a 100 from him we'll most definitely win this.

 

[hashbb]

If we can make 60 + before lunch, then around 150 in lunch and 150 before tea, i doubt it

 

[SAF]

nice crowd out there. How can you even think about a draw here. I wonder what would be going through Afridi's mind if he was batting.

 

[spoiled]

loose shot

 

[nads_rocks]

hafeez heard you...scored a boundary!!!

Lol yes I was waiting for the first boundary, Hafeez has been in gud touch, Toufeeq Umar on the other hand is an extremely slow player I know its test but U hav to keep the scoreboard ticking atleast...

Another reason why I feel Pakistan can win is if I didnt believe they would I would not be awake at 6am on my day off work to watch Pakistan bat hehe...

I'd jus sleep it through and find out the result when I wake up but i'm gonna try and watch each and every over today, i normally never sit and watch a whole days test play coz of how slow it is... But this one I have to see...

 

[Noork85]

23/0

the only problem like last match will be is that once SA realizes that we're scoring at a good rate and can chase this score down, they will push the fielders to the boundary and bowl a negative line....so we'll have to settle with the draw like last match...

27/0.

 

[nads_rocks]

Rameez never has anything nice or positive to say about Pakistan, the only thing that comes out of his mouth is pure and utter trash, he should be happy Pakistan havn't lost a wicket and not feeling bad for the bowler that he's wicketless, kameena saala!

 

[Noork85]

Have to admire that chase to the boundry by the saffers

 

[*sallu*]

Guided down to 3rd man by for :4

Pak run rate is just around 3.. But its a good Start for Pakistan..

 

[Acim]

He wouldn't get out coz he is not good enough to play the real cricket.
