YOu wouldnt see it if we took all 20 of their wkts and won with 6 days to spare
 
need to take wickets quickly now. we have out side chance of bowling them around 150.
 
Osman Samiuddin, our Pakistan editor, still can't quite believe that catch from Inzi. "I dunno whether I was more impressed that he was asleep while standing up or that he took that catch!"

Looks like I'll need the highlights later on for that!
 
Inzy is off the field at the moment. Probably needs a lie-down after that catch
 
That was a wicket !

It was almost a run out the batsman was so far out of his crease.
 
3.2 Kaneria to Prince, byes, FOUR!!, delivery looped up outside the off stump, spins back in sharply, Prince comes down the track and looks to smash it away, misses it and so does Akmal, that is a big miss, poor skills shown by the keeper on that occasion
 
Kami seems determined to fumble himself out the game, very sad to see.
Really felt for Kaneria there, could feel his frustration.

119-4 off 34 .
 
this stumping was just the same as last match or maybe even easier. very costly error. not just Prince might score some runs but also lose the chance to get another batsman in before close of play
 
Poor Danish, I feel for the guy. We chastise him for not being able to set up dismissals but when he does, Akmal fumbles the chance.
 
Man, I can't imagine how frustrated Kaneria will be with this dwarf with gloves.
 
i dont remember ever hearing abt other keepers from any country fluffing this much (oh apart from Geraint Jones!)
 
Not only it was easy stumping chance but prince also got an inside edge.

Inzi didn't look ready when the bowl was bowled, looked like a late reaction and it just stuck.

now now, that wouldn't be nice. :)
 
When Akmal screws up - the bowler takes it upon himself to get the batsman out (just like Sami did in the last test).
 
just can't help that if akmal had gotten that stumping it would be six down...but no worries one more wicket now comeon
 
Just need Kaneria to keep going like this along with Asif-- wonderful sight to see that Googly go between the bat and pad
 
Two pieces of magic have kept us in the game this afternoon, Inzi's blinder of a catch and that superb googly by Dani!!

COME ON PAKISTAN!
 
tomorrow morning its gonna be asif + kaneria starting the bowling...gonna be a good first hour...lets hope we get them out without too much of a lead
 
Game still on for us- MoYo seems to have found his touch and needs to go on and get a hundred next time and Younis is also due a big one- If we get them out for 200-220 we are in this match big time!!
 
oh dear Hall and boucher to come... stage still set for SA to get a 100 lead - irrespective of any pak heroics

For the umpteenth time Jones' keeping has improved massively and he has been faultless with the gloves over the last 12 months.
 
i wan't to kill akmal :12: :12: poor kaneria. But good little come back by Pakistan, SA 131/5 at stump. Wicket of prince could have been great.
 
The only trouble with Asif is ,he just can't take the tail enders .Ofcourse taking the top order is the key ,still tail can be very annoying some times.

That is where Akhtar would have been lethal.
