Pakistan vs Sri Lanka | 1st Test | Day 3 | Abu Dhabi | 20/10/11

[Strike!]

What are they waiting for?

 

[Sledger]

One ball left in the over then all eyes on

 

[NeVerMind]

Declared?

 

[Sledger]

Mohsin saying two more overs?

 

[Junior_Akmal]

This is really torture from Pakistan. Can't really understand what their plan is?

 

[Looney]

and they declare

 

[Hamxa89]

Worst I've seen him play! He was just going nowhere with that approach. I wonder how Misbah would tolerate this especially after the way he was playing himself. Asad needs to be told that he might just get dropped because of such innings. It is doing more harm to your chances of winning...

 

[qamar84]

moshin saying hit hit only 2 overs before declare

 

[hur rizvi]

MHK saying 2 more overs before declaration...

 

[NeVerMind]

mohsin waving his hands..but adnan chatting to him...

 

[Sledger]

Message coming out, I think they're batting 2 more overs to slog.

 

[Abdullah22]

who is the new coach

 

[farsiddiqui]

What was Mohsin signaling? Hit out; two more overs?

 

[Looney]

no :S

 

[Sledger]

Don't really see the point, maybe they want two bites of the new ball tonight and tomorrow.

 

[Legend Killer]

Mohsin saying two more overs?

Yup, i think they will slog wildly for the next two overs than declare

 

[Sledger]

Mohsin saying play like for 2 more.

 

[spoiled]

moshin khan is very excitable and animated

not good for a coach i guess

 

[Strike!]

Why wait two more overs?

 

[Abdullah22]

Worst I've seen him play! He was just going nowhere with that approach. I wonder how Misbah would tolerate this especially after the way he was playing himself. Asad needs to be told that he might just get dropped because of such innings. It is doing more harm to your chances of winning...

are you a bot?

You said exactly the same thing 2 pages back.

 

[Amjid Javed]

All we need now is someone dancing on the balcony like JM )

 

[attock]

2 more overs

 

[anakwalajinn]

do u guys want them to declare? I dont =P

 

[Sledger]

Nice chip for two.

 

[Hamxa89]

Impressive from Taufeeq

 

[Sledger]

Good play by Umar, very skillful stuff.

 

[Amjid Javed]

With 2 overs being lost for a change off Inns Sri lanka will need to bat 11 overs tonight.

If we can have them 2 down tonight that would be great!

 

[qamar84]

14 runs in 7 balls left to make 250 for taufeeq

 

[Ahson8]

From Cricinfo:
We could have a declaration tonight. Misbah is dressed up in his whites, and is seeing standing in the balcony. The way they are batting, though, doesn't feel like it
Mohsin Khan gestures towards the batsmen with a disturbed look on his face. The look of a man whose orders are not being carried out. Two fingers go up too. Possibly two more overs give. A message comes out too

 

[Sledger]

Taufeeq now has a better top score than Mohammad Yousuf LOL!

Could have got a three hundred here.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Was the signal to Taufeeq to score in 2s!

)

 

[ares1000]

I was named for Mohsin Khan.

 

[Sledger]

Negative line, dot ball.

One over to go.

 

[Amjid Javed]

2,2,2,2,

Happy Mohsin?

 

[Markhor]

This over 2 2 2 2 1

 

[JibranAnsari]

asad pissed off

 

[Bhaijaan]

Equals Gavaskar's highest score

 

[Amjid Javed]

Last over 14 need by TU!

 

[anakwalajinn]

just let get his 250 and then declare, no?

 

[Sledger]

Misbah ready to field now.

 

[NeVerMind]

mohsin, now hold up six fingers...we want 6!

 

[JibranAnsari]

trott 98 * and innings ended

 

[NeVerMind]

and umar gets run out...

 

[Sledger]

Looks runout.

 

[Markhor]

Run-out

 

[NeVerMind]

[Legend Killer]

Yup, its

 

[Sledger]

Looks more in from the other angle though..

 

[ares1000]

2,2,2,2,

Happy Mohsin?

This Mohsin is peeved by the slow scoring.

 

[qamar84]

[Sledger]

Sad end, top knock.

 

[Hamxa89]

[Markhor]

[Markhor]

Taufeeq gone for 236. Fantastic innings

 

[Sledger]

No declaration?

 

[Sledger]

Gul promoted for a hit and giggle loool.

 

[musama]

taufeeq out promising inning come to an end. might be declared as well let's see

 

[Markhor]

New batsman in I think, so no declaration as of yet.

 

[Ahson8]

Taufeeq out

 

[Sledger]

No point of this, but let's see what Gul can do for 4 balls.

 

[insaftak]

Gul in for some Pull shots

 

[JibranAnsari]

why arent we declaring?

 

[anakwalajinn]

sad end to a great innings!

how often do you get the chance of making 250?

 

[Looney]

bewakoof log ab run out ho kar ghar.

[akheR]

Taufeeq now has a better top score than Mohammad Yousuf LOL!

Could have got a three hundred here.

Has the 2nd HS (236) for a Pakistani opener after Hanif Mohammed (337) also.
