Pakistan vs Sri Lanka | 1st Test | Abu Dhabi | 3/1/14 | Day 4

[Kianig89]

this spin is worrying.

dont worry :ahmed for a 60 ball 100 #Sehwagsque

 

[Stark]

Cricinfo:
Nalin: "How Ironic it is, when Sri Lanka has 4 genuine wicketkeepers, and the Pakistan wicketkeeper gets injured"

 

[saiyan0312]

junaid has not bowled a single over this session. is he injured?

 

[Square Drive]

Let us hope that our pacers don't break down after this Test.

 

[Kianig89]

wickets do fall near the close of play

 

[Blade-Runner]

Ajmal is getting some spin. Good news for Herath .

 

[saiyan0312]

dont worry :ahmed for a 60 ball 100 #Sehwagsque

Nah thats manzoor. ahmed will make a tendulkeresque hundred.

TBH i really hope they will.

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

400 up for 5 down

 

[Kianig89]

Give Prasanna the license here

 

[Kiri]

Ajmal is getting some spin. Good news for Herath .

Hera will love it.

 

[Sherlock]

Game over as far as Pakistan is concerned. SL can still win this.

 

[Square Drive]

Younus Khan screaming, "tired tired".

 

[Kianig89]

Nah thats manzoor. ahmed will make a tendulkeresque hundred.

TBH i really hope they will.

and Hafeez ponting to score the winning run

 

[farazaidi]

It's not unlucky if he uses his brain and realised there's nobody there and not ball a "hit me" delivery.

that comment was for that "unlucky Rahat" thread where some believed he should've got 5 wickets. Well, nevermind !

 

[Kianig89]

SL has 2 spinners

 

[Square Drive]

Bowl Junaid with Ajmal.

 

[Kianig89]

400 up

 

[Kianig89]

222 lead SL can't lose this bowling 1st was a foolish decision in hindsight

 

[saiyan0312]

and Hafeez ponting to score the winning run

Then hafeez ponting will get to play for the next 6 years.

 

[Kianig89]

401/5

 

[farazaidi]

Ajmal in his current spell

O-M-R-W
6-3-4-0

Doing a good job for the captain, keeping the runs down. Need to attack SL from the other end with Junaid !

 

[Kianig89]

then hafeez ponting will get to play for the next 6 years.

 

[Kiri]

C'mon Angie, he needs to accelerate or get PJ to do it.

 

[Xoib]

222 lead SL can't lose this bowling 1st was a foolish decision in hindsight

so glad it backfired annoys me whenever Misbah does it unless its a green mamba you always bat first in a test match. You should abck yourself to bat out the first session always.

 

[saiyan0312]

in this spell ajmal has looked threatening. should bring junaid on the other end.

 

[saiyan0312]

so glad it backfired annoys me whenever Misbah does it unless its a green mamba you always bat first in a test match. You should abck yourself to bat out the first session always.

you mean first day right.

 

[saiyan0312]

misbah is thinking more on containment now.

 

[hadi123]

Match over . We need a miracle for YK and Misbah but i really doubt that again. We need to get the lead below 250 somehow magically to get close

 

[Barragan]

so glad it backfired annoys me whenever Misbah does it unless its a green mamba you always bat first in a test match. You should abck yourself to bat out the first session always.

It was actually a great decision but Hafeez, Shafiq and Adnan folded for nothing and have ultimately, cost Pak a win.

 

[MarkCooper]

Impact NOT in line.

 

[saiyan0312]

why not give the ball to junaid misbah. man!!

 

[MarkCooper]

Inside Edge?

 

[Square Drive]

nahi hua

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

lol ***

 

[Square Drive]

Not-out.

 

[akamaka]

LOL ) great

 

[shahidafridi123]

Why is that not out

 

[MarkCooper]

Not Out. Inside Edge.

 

[Kiri]

no conclusive evidence but that did look out

 

[Osman]

pathetic umpiring...no inside edge so why was it not taken any further?????

 

[OZGOD]

Was Misbah telling Jayawardene to "get ready for a broken f*** knee" just then

 

[WNC]

I reckon there was no inside edge. Jayawardene should thank the umpire

 

[saiyan0312]

What a weird decision....

 

[Glory Of '09]

Wt f that was out!

 

[Khan88]

What exactly is the point of Rahat Ali? So ordinary.

 

[Executioner]

Now how was that not out?

 

[MarkCooper]

they haven't shown hawkeye yet but i reckon it was impact outside of the line too

 

[battler]

Third umpire is Indian

 

[MarkCooper]

they haven't shown hawkeye yet but i reckon it was impact outside of the line too.

Remember on Not Out all the ball has to be in front of the wickets.

 

[bluffmasterv2]

Lol you cant get more out than that. Just sums up Pakistan's day.

 

[Seen Sheen]

they haven't shown hawkeye yet but i reckon it was impact outside of the line too

Outside the line!dont think at all. Impact off hitting middle and leg.

 

[WNC]

they haven't shown hawkeye yet but i reckon it was impact outside of the line too

No. The impact was in line, that was as plumb as it gets.

 

[hadi123]

How is that not out. Sack the umpire. Whats the point of ors if that will be given not out

 

[j_kazmi]

Why can't we get jayawardene out? He's such a mediocre batsmen, he averages 30 in 50 test so why does even play for sl.

 

[saiyan0312]

misbah really needs to bring on junaid too. his body language has given up.

 

[Blade-Runner]

Guys, On day 2 Misbah was given NOT OUT too. And there was no visible inside edge. Still he was given not out. I thought Jayawardene's decision was a fair one.

 

[Square Drive]

So guys, how's life?

 

[saiyan0312]

lead 231...

 

[majiz]

Watching some herath clips on youtube. Such a lovely, smooth action. watch out tomorrow pak

 

[Arsal_AK]

Where is Junaid?Come on Misbah.I think, he is playing for time by bowling Ajmal and Rahat.Both have been economical other wise why would you not hand the ball to Juni??

 

[bluffmasterv2]

Guys, On day 2 Misbah was given NOT OUT too. And there was no visible inside edge. Still he was given not out. I thought Jayawardene's decision was a fair one.

Oh please dude. This looked way more out had they examined the hawk eye.

Misbahs case would have been Umpires call on impact.

 

[Executioner]

Why can't we get jayawardene out? He's such a mediocre batsmen, he averages 30 in 50 test so why does even play for sl.

As a keeper batsman.

Sangakkara don't keep anymore in Tests

 

[saiyan0312]

:fouir sweep

ajmal just .01 away from reaching 27 avg.

 

[saiyan0312]

junaid khan on... come on juni do something.

 

[Blade-Runner]

They were checking for the inside edge. Hawk eye comes later.

 

[Sunny786]

So guys, how's life?

meh

 

[saiyan0312]

inconsistent bounce and spin.

No need to show so many videos of herath.

Everyone in this forum accepts the fact that herath is class in tests. Probably the best SLA in the world ATM in this format

 

[Executioner]

So guys, how's life?

fun

 

[arehaan]

inconsistent bounce and spin.

You should have never bowled on this wicket after winning the toss. played right in Sri lankas hands

I so hate Misbahs lack of thought process

 

[Kiri]

Not because of that. Herath is going to be a key factor tomorrow morning. The pitch has some turn in it.

 

[farazaidi]

this test match has atleast got a few SL posters with regular posts. I hope they continue to grace us with their presence even if SL loses this test/series
