Pakistan vs Sri Lanka | 1st Test | Abu Dhabi | 2/1/14 | Day 3

[mmkextreme_1]

Rameez just said, SA "the best bowling attack in the world"

So indecisive..yesterday saying Pakistan is the best bowling attack in the world

Not shot by Akmal :4

 

[Red Devil]

lol now Rameez calling SA the best attack in the world

 

[imshally81]

:4

 

[Wattoo]

Why would Asad be dropped?

He just scored a century in his last test he played.

6 , 6 , 4 , 15 , 10, 14 , 54 , 10 , 130 , 13 are his last 10 innings score.

 

[Statistics375]

Poor batting by Asad today, no idea why he was scoring so slowly he scored a Test Ton in his last innings and it was not as if Pakistan were losing the Test, should have played with some more intent.

Meanwhile Adnan scores a gutsy boundary.

 

[Wattoo]

lol now Rameez calling SA the best attack in the world

Iss banday ki samjah nahi atai, kabhi pakistan kabi SA

 

[Kianig89]

lol now Rameez calling SA the best attack in the world

saach chup nae sakta

 

[Red Devil]

Gutsy edge and

 

[Statistics375]

Gutsy Adnan gone.

 

[Kianig89]

6 , 6 , 4 , 15 , 10, 14 , 54 , 10 , 130 , 13 are his last 10 innings score.

so 262 in 10 innings =Avg. 26.2

its not that bleak

 

[OZGOD]

Pakistan folding. Rameez is apoplectic in the commentary box. Says that Akmal is nowhere near as good a batsman as Prior

 

[Kianig89]

:adnan )

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Pls throw Shafiq and Adnan out of this team.

 

[imshally81]

adnan

 

[GreenKnightRises]

. Gutsy. What a pathetic player . Still haunting our Test Team.

 

[Wattoo]

another gone

 

[Justcrazy]

lanka strike again

 

[KB-24]

It's high time Fawad & Umar made comebacks into the test playing XI, we can't have players who bat with zero purpose. SL back in the game.

 

[Justcrazy]

Bhatti one now

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Adnan Akmal gone! He needs to be KICKED out!

Mohammad Rizwan needs to come in, annoys the crap out of me!

Pakistan 342/6 Lead by 138 runs

Bhatti comes out to the middle

 

[Red Devil]

C'mon Bhatti hang in there

 

[battler]

Adnan out for a gutsy 6.

 

[Justcrazy]

Adnan has not improved his batting at all.

 

[Wattoo]

so 262 in 10 innings =Avg. 26.2

its not that bleak

Even in ODIs this average is considered as crime.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Pls throw Shafiq and Adnan out of this team.

They should never been included in our squad along with Mr. Proffessor

 

[imshally81]

Bhatti in...

 

[Justcrazy]

Rizwan deserves a go now . Enough for Adnan.

 

[imshally81]

It's high time Fawad & Umar made comebacks into the test playing XI, we can't have players who bat with zero purpose. SL back in the game.

 

[Justcrazy]

Can Bhatti chip in with 25 here?

 

[imshally81]

Misbah should accelerate his innings...

 

[mmkextreme_1]

We are going to save Eranga and Lakmals international careers!

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan will get a lead of 180 - 200 here .

 

[KB-24]

Misbah needs to get a move on now, no point in blocking

 

[Justcrazy]

need to show faith in Bhatti.

 

[Red Devil]

misbah should accelerate his innings...

+1

 

[Kianig89]

Even in ODIs this average is considered as crime.

What about Hafeez who averages 12 in app. dozen innings Asad has the ability to score big its not that he has a big technical flaw like

 

[imshally81]

:4

 

[talma]

Sri Lanka has gained the momentum now..Thanks to Misbah and Shafiq

 

[Kianig89]

Bhatti a better batsman than Adnan watch out !

 

[Kianig89]

[Nuekboi]

Now is the time to go hard and try to score some runs quickly, specially Bhatti

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Sri Lanka has gained the momentum now..Thanks to Misbah and Shafiq

Chill with the pessimism man

 

[Justcrazy]

Be patient guys , Pakistan well ahead of the game here.

 

[Kianig89]

both wickets were batsmen fault

 

[Kianig89]

Now is the time to go hard and try to score some runs quickly, specially Bhatti

Why 250+ overs in the game left

 

[imshally81]

[Justcrazy]

SL will not be getting 400 in second innings , so just chill

 

[Kianig89]

Be patient guys , Pakistan well ahead of the game here.

Innings Victory needed

 

[Kianig89]

Haa ji niyat saaf rakhe early moisture

 

[imranraf]

Bhatti given 4 runs even though his bat did not touch that ball.

 

[Nuekboi]

So how did that idiot Adnan get out? and what about Mr Shafique?

 

[Wattoo]

What about Hafeez who averages 12 in app. dozen innings Asad has the ability to score big its not that he has a big technical flaw like

He is a T20 batsman. He is burden on team just like afridi.

 

[Nuekboi]

Lakmal 7 away from his century

 

[Kianig89]

Asad's linen being washed again

 

[mmkextreme_1]

So how did that idiot Adnan get out? and what about Mr Shafique?

Adnan, can't bat! He is a genuine tailender. Tried to drive the ball and got an edge.

Shafiq, was in tuk tuk mode, and when the bad ball came, he couldn't put it away because of his mindset.

 

[Kianig89]

He is a T20 batsman. He is burden on team just like afridi.

Agreed

 

[KB-24]

Shafiq and an aggressive batsman? What on earth is on? )

 

[Kianig89]

Lakmal closing on a ton 94*

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Yeap, we are making Lakmal look like Steyn out there

Another bowler added to the long list of lulloo bowlers we made to look good.

 

[Kianig89]

Best sight

 

[KB-24]

Lakmal suddenly bowling like Asif out there )

 

[Kianig89]

testing over

 

[Justcrazy]

usman: "its rare to see fast bowler bowling more overs then the spiners in UAE"

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Both Eranga and Lakmal, need to be added to the long list of laloos that we have made to look good!

Nice shot for a run by Misbah

 

[Kianig89]

long spells here for the pacers

 

[Kianig89]

148 Lead
