Just too many wickets falling, too regularly!
We need to push it over a hundred. Somewhere in the region of 120-160. Our bowling could come good. Just need to get some more runs on the board.
 
Yousuf needs to do an Inzi now and bat with the tail for 100 runs to give us a shout
 
The classy MoYo soldiers on with 2 boundaries, and a couple more to bring up the 100 followed by another boundary.

104-6

I reckon Yousuf is attacking now, to get as many runs with tail as possible

Can he do an Inzamam?

I remember Inzy said something along the lines that Yousuf is the best batsman Pakistan have ever produced

He said that somewhere...
 
What I wouldn't give for Yousuf to shut up all the FTB branding critics here today....
 
Some quality shots by Mohammed Yousuf along the ground so the chance of getting out is minimum.
 
cricinfo is updating their commentary faster than cricbuzz today..! Surprise surprise. The Indian working away at the commentary seems to be excited with pakistan in a hole...!
 
game set and match saffies.

the only good that may come out of this match is our bowlers can get some rest as they will only need to bowl once at the saffies.

Isn't Cricbuzz owned by Indians too?

Oi, next innings is Inzamam's last opportunity for his perfect 10?

Hmm...

The 92 not out was more valuable than any century for me
 
To put Pak's batting performance in context, we really need to wait until S A have batted.
 
Good job by MOYO ,scores 15 runs the last over and keeps the strike ,may be he will do a Inzi here batting with the tail.

Really? After 2 hours? Remember Pak have the ability to win games that NO other team on earth could dream of!
 
All the wrist-slitters in full form here. Game, set and match? Shut the hell up and let South Africa bat first.
 
I got a feeling that Ntini won't bowl to many overs in this game ! Smith might not risk him he got plenty of bowling options...

This FTB mentality is a Pak fan problem Shan - the rest of the world recognises him as a great - clearly you have your own doubts the way you keep bringing it up.

Nah it hasn't. It's just the ball is getting old so there isn't as much assistance. Seems like a new ball wicket to me.

Exactly - if the pitch is as bad as is being commented on. lets see what our heroes can do on it before getting the old razor blades out...

i don't think u hve seen another thread on this by non-pakistani
 
I seriously think 200 will be a very good score here.
 
Beautiful. Yousuf is trying to do an Inzi here from the last match. Inshallah we will get to a good enough total.

Its a competitive target - an absolute minimum and means we're still in the game.
 
200+ is important, failing which 150+ will do as well !
 
This attack looks much better than the previous attack in the first 2 test matches of the series. Steyn is bowling 150k!!!
 
Moyo gts his 50th 50 ! 54 off 60 balls. Well played, now lets have 50 more.

Another 4 overthrows, last 4 overs have produced 57 runs!

127-6
