Pakistan vs South Africa | 2nd Test | Lahore | 12/10/07 | Day 5

[Safar55]

another maiden from Harris

 

[W63L35]

match was over in morning sessoin, when SA bowled negative line outside leg stump

No...Only Harris blowed like that...we could have scored from other end!

 

[shan2026]

Draw the series not match.

 

[Safar55]

What would a draw prove? Why not just try attack, play non text book shots, go for broke

 

[W63L35]

192 runs needed in 32 overs at 6.00 R/O

 

[Xoib]

I would imagine runs are hard to score on the wicket. Pakistan are struggling to keep pace. Instead of being critical, I think we need to understand that a 5th day wicket is not conducive to fast scoring rates. They have a spinner bowling on a wearing wicket. What do you expect? Some slogging?? It'sa test match. Simply change your expectations. We will draw the game. A series defeat - but then you can't expect more chasing 450.

Atleast try once, we have two set batsman if a wicket falls then fine you can go back to being defensive.

 

[Safar55]

Kallis going round the wicket

 

[the true passionist]

maiden by Moyo!

 

[Safar55]

YK gone!!!... Kallis round the wicket... Boucher takes it

 

[KA$H]

YK gone - time for teh big man

 

[NeVerMind]

YK gone and now all we can hope is for a draw. The big man, Inzy comes in for the last time...

 

[Safar55]

Inzi In

 

[saffer]

sure I'm nervous !! Your boys are fighting hard !

 

[shan2026]

younis gone, now draw is the only option

 

[Osman]

and inzi in for his final innings in international cricket ... come on Inzi !!!!!!!!!!!

 

[foojam]

the ego has landed...lest see how his testimonial goes

 

[Hash]

younis gone, now draw is the only option

not yet

still got the big man

 

[darkmoon459]

There is no shame in lossing if you fight a good fight but Pakistanis don't have the mentality to take calculated risk , instead we are more oblige to lay down like a wet noddle.What a shame we could have won this.

 

[the true passionist]

Awful

 

[the true passionist]

Now wait till Inzi takes 50 ball to score 5 runs

 

[W63L35]

Very Well played YK!!!

 

[darkmoon459]

Very Well played YK!!!

slow but well played none the less.

 

[Safar55]

I suppose we should expect a collapse anytime now.... I think we're due

 

[Safar55]

4 runs from inzi off the final ball.... 7 runs of that over

 

[classic]

maybe Inzi is the man to take us to a famous victory and really put the icing on the cake. This would be his best and memorable performance me after wc92 ofcourse.

 

[Shahid A]

I suppose we should expect a collapse anytime now.... I think we're due

y dont u just keep ure mouth shut because rubbish is coming out

 

[Waseem]

INZI TAKES 3 AND 2 MORE TO GO.

Come on Inzi!!!

 

[W63L35]

185 runs needed in 31 overs at 5.97 R/O

 

[Safar55]

Inzi gone

 

[foojam]

wat a disgrace inzi...!!

 

[Mercenary]

Inzi was going for the win, now he's out

 

[Safar55]

Harris stumped boucher...charging down the wicket

 

[MIB]

Mianded continues the record.............

 

[shan2026]

what the hell

 

[foojam]

oops

 

[shan2026]

now can we draw this match?

 

[Shahid A]

Inzi gone

if u havent had said that before .....

 

[Osman]

inziiiiiiiiiiiiii nooooooooooooo .......... falls 2 runs short of Miandads record

 

[shabbu1]

Oh well, maybe it just wasn't meant to be

 

[Safar55]

he wasn't selfish - THAT'S for SURE.... INZI is the hero today

 

[MIB]

inzi stumped in his last test :-( take a bow master...wish u all the success in future

 

[saffer]

see....you same guys who were saying "go for it " ...no complain when he does! Stupid !

I just feel really sorry for inzi to end like this ..

 

[NeVerMind]

I'm gutted. Inzy threw his bat down in disgust in the dressing room.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Am glad JM kept the record he deserved it!!

 

[karachiite]

what a crying shame

 

[the true passionist]

Jackman putting a positive spin to it.

 

[Safar55]

Just go for the charge.... if we lose - so what.... look at inzi he had the record in sights but he went for it?

what have the rest got to lose??? LEARN FROM INZI BHAI

 

[kablooee87]

Inzi smashes his bat as soon as he enters the dressing room. Camera showed it on the big screen.

 

[saffer]

he wasn't selfish - THAT'S for SURE.... INZI is the hero today

good point ! That was a very unselfish shot to play !

 

[Waseem]

Inzi STUMPED :-( :-( :-(

Couldn't break record but well played big man, this record wouldn't matter that much but what you have given to this country matters much more.

Well played Inzi, we will miss you forever

 

[W63L35]

To be honest with you guys....I stayed up ALL night to see Inzi's LAST inning...not the test match...but they way he got out, I was really disappointed.....
but regardless, great career!!!
He was a sheer joy to watch and will be greatly missed!!!!

 

[shan2026]

Now just draw the game. boys we have lost the series.

 

[pak4life]

the collapse has started. the new ball will be taken anytime soon

 

[Shahid A]

Am glad JM kept the record he deserved it!!

if inzi had got it u would of been saying inzi deserved it so....

 

[161]

baahahaha inzi got what he deserved !!

 

[Safar55]

C'mon now... I'd rather we collaps than be bored to death ...so we can boast about a draw....

 

[darkmoon459]

Inzi gone

yes the so call legnd failed pakistan and put the team under pressure ,jeeva jeeva miandad.

 

[karachiite]

i am absoloutely gutted. Was hoping he would end his Test career with more dignity than his ODI career

 

[IMMY69]

Am glad JM kept the record he deserved it!!

so you'd rather miandad kept the record then inzy making runs for pakistan and possibly contributing to a win?

 

[saffer]

hmmmm....one more wicket and the new ball....30 overs......hmmmmmmmmm

 

[NeVerMind]

the collapse has started. the new ball will be taken anytime soon

not the way Harris are bowling. SA will stick to what they are doing.

 

[davidmj85]

What a 'match-winning' player !?

 

[foojam]

Inzi STUMPED :-( :-( :-(

Couldn't break record but well played big man, this record wouldn't matter that much but what you have given to this country matters much more.

Well played Inzi, we will miss you forever

what are you guys like...hes a disgrace...served us well..till this last year...what the hell is this?? hes playing for himself not pakistan!!

 

[down4whatever]

lol inzy, just retire already, We want a win.

 

[inzidabest]

tough luck Inzy...Inzy did what Moyo and YK should have done 10 overs back....tried to accelerate..wasnt selfish...had he been selfish he would have made 6 runs in 18 balls...

 

[saffer]

Harris starting to turn it now too...

hmmmmm

 

[Safar55]

I'm happy that Inzi didn't show selfishness... He's the bravest man out there - to play like that when he has a record to break and only 1 chance..... The guy has got more Guts than the rest of the team put together

 

[iZeeshan]

We can win this. We still have Misbah. Yousuf is set. Malik needs to get in and ATTACK.

Poor Inzi, but I am pissed more about that we lost 2 quick wickets.

 

[W63L35]

185 runs needed in 30 overs at 6.17 R/O

 

[shan2026]

Pakistan should really look for a win. I'd lose 2-0 rather then 1-0 as long as we give it a real go.

Things are different now, we can't win this match chasing over 6an over.

 

[karachiite]

he wanted to reach the record in style but didn't quite happen.

 

[inzidabest]

Pakistan have to try for a win here...Its a shame if they dont pick up from inzys intent..Loss is immaterial

 

[kablooee87]

baahahaha inzi got what he deserved !!

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Admit it, you prefer Pakistan losing this test match and Inzi failing over Pakistan winning this test match and Inzi doing well.

 

[the true passionist]

Pakistan should really look for a win. I'd lose 2-0 rather then 1-0 as long as we give it a real go.

Now is the time to play for the draw!

 

[Osman]

and Inzi will also end with a test average below 50 .... this was a real anti-climax ... really feel for Inzi

 

[darkmoon459]

tough luck Inzy...Inzy did what Moyo and YK should have done 10 overs back....tried to accelerate..wasnt selfish...had he been selfish he would have made 6 runs in 18 balls...

oh come on thats a bag full of BS.

 

[iZeeshan]

Btw, does anyone have links? Mine died on me, and I really wanna watch this last day!

 

[davidmj85]

Atleast Inzi managed 3 better than Bradman

 

[saffer]

south africa will wait 5 overs to see if they can get a wicket...then it will be the new ball and full out attack.....

 

[Amir]

Its pathetic how some Paksitani "fans" can only think about how Inzi got out and how happy they are Javed kept a record when we need to win the game. On top of that, you may not agree with all of Inzi's decision but the amount od disrespect shown is absurd. The fact is, the man had a great career and many good memories. This is a time to win this test and remember Inzi for what he has achieved.
