maybe bhatti is a better test player then a ODI player. His first class stats suggests that and we need an allrounder in tests.

[saiyan0312]

[Nuekboi]

That was a garbage shot from Chandimal though. Bit of a gift

 

[Justcrazy]

3 wickets for Bhatti , Just what the doctor ordered

 

[saiyan0312]

[JilaWatan]

That was a garbage shot from Chandimal though. Bit of a gift

haha our batsmen do it all the time

 

[Justcrazy]

Dileep Krishnan: "This has happened before when Irfan Pathan dismissed Inzamam first in a no-ball and again in the next legitimate ball. Both were caught keeper if i remember right"

 

[Energetic]

Poor crowds yet again which is of course no surprise as they are 'minnows' claimed by many fans

But people cry out for 3+ match test series everytime

If crowds don't improve then Tests has no future I'm afraid. Good luck!

 

[Saeed]

Who thinks misbah shouldn't be captain now?

 

[Justcrazy]

Matthews has a decent test record
