Pak out to bat.

Butt & Akmal.

Both players OWE Pak big time - what greater opportunity?

Forget it Oxy. How many times have these openers been given such opportunities? And how many times have they failed spectacularly?!

Anything from these two will be a bonus. The real batting line-up starts from number 3
 
field set for But

Usman Sahib what do we expect from akmal he has been keeping for so long

unlike Kashif97 who gets all his cricket knowledge from following matches on cricinfo, those who had watched the match yesterday will agree that Asif bowled very well. Fate was against him!

funny ... that's usually what we hear about sami ...

in the end it's wickets that matter .. not ooh ooh he bowled so good but he's just so unlucky...
 
Kami plays & misses.

I have a bad feeling about Steyn today...

Only to lame people like you.

Those of us who enjoy watching cricket know how to appreciate a world class bowler and know when we see one. You clearly don't.

What does movement in the air have to do with the track?

you do know that swing has nothing to do with the pitch right?
 
Kashif the movement only last about ten overs then it dies

and ur conveniently ignoring the bounce on this track - ... hash only sees what hash wants to see.
 
That last shot of Kamran Akmal was class, no chance of getting out, lovely pull shot down the ground.
 
kamran is so much better as an opener then down the order .. he is a naturally aggressive batsmen.
 
SHOT OF THE DAY!

But off drives down the ground for 4

21-0

Zaheer doesnt know how to praise

:)) changing the subject

So you thought that swing/movement in the air was related to the pitch conditions :))) :))) :)))

Great Mr Cricket expert :14: :14: :19: :)))

As for the 'bounce'.... :)))

LOL why coudn't butt do this in T20 ?!!??
Click to expand...

maybe because he thought swing/movement in the air was related to pitch conditions :))) :)))
 
well now we know this is a BELTER of a track now ...

If PK does not make 500 that will be a SHAME ...
 
but seriously our batsman need to calm down

1s and 2s are fine with only 17 mins until tea. No need to take undue risks
 
all good cricket strokes so far ..

and our friend says "these strokes will take you to the dressing room"
 
Seems like a bad batch of balls today - Smith querying the shape of this one after 4 overs

hash ... oxy said steyn had movement - that could mean swing or seam movement - is that too difficult for u to understand ?

and can u make a post without throwing in a dozen smileys to make up for an otherwise lack of intelligent content.
 
Smith has the ball checked,

Bishop says, yeh there is something wrong with it, its rushing to the boundry .. hehe

so now you have admitted you were forming expert opinions about the pitch without actually watching the game? :)))

Seems the smilies are getting to you? :))) :))) :)))

Lamo :)))
 
Comments you never thought you would be posting:-

"Salman Butt - slow down!!!"
 
Looking at the way our openers are going, our bowlers must have bowled very well to keep SA at under 3 an over.
 
i'm serious - -it's gonna look stupid when we loose the 1st wicket inside 10 overs
 
Nel's follow through is about 50 feet down the pitch!
 
I'm enjoying this - the 1st 2 sessions had been painful viewing...

Same here...started well in the morning the first wicket. But than everything went quiet. Finaly some action :)
 
good stuff from kami

picking 1s and 2s
 
poor start from Pakistani openers as usual.
when they will learn to rotate strike? I feel wicket is around the corner
 
2 more to Butt.

YOu wait for the 'Butt is the Greatest' threads later on today....
 
Very poor effort from Butt - big play and miss.

Calm down mate...
