The pitch is still flat as anything. Money still on a draw. If S.A get 2 more this session then it might be a close thing. I can't see 6/7 wickets falling in one session on this pitch.
 
the bookies asked for 3 wickets i guess..the fix is done
now guys take it easy
 
at the end of last session we were hoping to put some pressure on saffers now struggling to save the game.what a shame!

game ain't over until the last over or..wicket in pakistan's case

pakistan's played some good cricket in the past few days, lets just wait and watch whether they draw the match or even manage to win [oh em gee!]
 
57 Overs to bat seems a long time now!

7 wickets for S.A to get! Proper Bottle job here by Pakistan!
 
If we get bowled out by Harris and Botha then we truely are crap!
 
I was wondering who the most successful batsman against Glenn McGrath in Tests is? Could it be Brian Lara? asked MD Masood from America
Brian Lara is indeed quite high on that particular list. In the 20 Tests he's played against Glenn McGrath, Lara averages 45.97 - he scored 1655 runs in those games, but McGrath has got him out 13 times. Lara is a fraction ahead of Graham Thorpe, who averaged 45.82 when in opposition to Australia and McGrath. Only two batsmen who played more than twice in Tests against "Pigeon" have exceeded Lara's average, and both are from Pakistan: Saeed Anwar made 796 runs in seven matches in which McGrath played, at an average of 61.23, and Ijaz Ahmed made 733 runs in eight Tests at 56.38.

FOR ALL THOSE WHO SAYS SACHIN N DRAVID N LAXMAN WERE BETTER V MCGRATH

Haysman is SO excited.

"EEEEVERY ball they're looking to do something!"

Glad there's the soothing monotone of Mohd Akram at the other end.
 
amazing how just abt 30 mins ago we were all dreaming about a win...

can we ever play like champions? or do we always have to create such tension from ourselves

Botha = manageable
Harris = Swann/Vettori/AnUknownSpinner = unplayable ! - how do we do this ?
 
Pakistan still need to play postive here or we are just asking for trouble!

Pak 83/3 - 53 overs to go...
