Pakistan vs Sri Lanka | 1st Test | Abu Dhabi | 1/1/14 | Day 2

[Batman]

2 off over 73rd over!

 

[Nikhil_cric]

No need for these guys to play fast.. It is test cricket
Younis is going at a strike rate if 70 now

Scoring heavily and quickly puts a lot of pressure on Lanka. YK is doing the right thing.

 

[Batman]

Partnershsip is 160.

 

[khalil1986]

Great batting by Younis, lets hope we just need to bat once.

Misbah probably will get out soon after his hundred but hoping for a 150+ score from Younis as he has the pedigree to go big.

 

[Batman]

3/243 | Lead by 39.

 

[Batman]

Younis is 96 now!

 

[saiyan0312]

singles towards hundred. i love this approach. no heroics.

 

[Batman]

One more to Younis on 97*

Scoring heavily and quickly puts a lot of pressure on Lanka. YK is doing the right thing.

I know but that was for those people who were complaining that they r playing too slow..
I said a strike rate of 70 is not fast enough for test cricket

 

[IAJ]

What session this has been for Paksitan, way over 100 runs, and Yonis approaching 100 i no time MashaAllah.

 

[Batman]

3/244 | Lead by 40.

 

[Batman]

Partnership is now 161.

 

[Wattoo]

YK gone past Ganguly in terms of test runs.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Misbah is maintaining a steady Tucking rate

 

[saiyan0312]

younis in his 87 tests is only removed twice in ninties in his career.

 

[razabbas]

on 98

 

[Batman]

3/245 | Lead by 41.

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Anyone else remember all the wrist-slitting yesterday? First regarding the team selection and apparent nepotism in the camp, then the decision to bowl first, then the purportedly hopeless state of affairs at lunch, and then regarding Misbah's captaincy when Lanka were apparently running away with the game at 150/8.

Comedy gold.

Well put! Add to that the great complaint about leaving out Talha, not playing Rehman on a spinning pitch, this being the most boring batting unit (ironically the 2 most boring players also scoring most comfortably) etc. etc.

 

[Batman]

Younis on 98.

 

[saiyan0312]

sweep and just one away.

 

[imshally81]

@ 98*

 

[Batman]

one short now on 99.

 

[aukhan]

LEGEND on 99*

 

[razabbas]

on strike 99

 

[GreenKnightRises]

MYK at 99*

 

[imshally81]

younis in his 87 tests is only removed twice in ninties in his career.

What do u think about 3rd time ??

 

[KB-24]

YK certainly challenging the title for best ever test batsman from Pakistan. If he can get to 30 test tons before retiring, he will be the best for sure!

 

[razabbas]

Century

 

[CalculatedRisk]

I never understand the boring part that people make. as long as they score they can look boring and ugly for all i care. This is test cricket for crying out loud.

what a hundred for this man. equals javed miandad 23 centuries.

 

[Wattoo]

:4

 

[Nikhil_cric]

23 test tons for YK. Whaddaplaya!

 

[Wattoo]

[saiyan0312]

What a player. hard to believe some were saying he needs rest and is too old now.

 

[Ibad17]

good solid batting...

 

[Batman]

Good knock by Younis. Need to carry on and score big.

 

[emranabbas]

younis khan hits a 100 and does not do sajda so its not ending here

 

[mosh101]

Younis should get a double here

 

[Batman]

250 up for Pakistan.

Tea - Day 2.

 

[Nuekboi]

Session dominated by Pakistan. Keep the good work going boys!

 

[Batman]

Great session for Pakistan put SL on the back foot.

 

[yasir]

I like the fact that Younis does not go through Sajda routine, which every player goes through after TJ take over the Pakistani dressing room. So annoying!! Good to see somebody standing his ground
