Pakistan vs Sri Lanka | 3rd Test | Sharjah | 19/01/14 | Day 4

[96NotOut]

Both Junaid and Ajmal have gone wicketless in this innings... What's going on, I had my hopes of a victory pinned on them!

 

[saiyan0312]

mathews is so going for a draw... 17 SR

 

[hur rizvi]

Going wicketless is onething, problem is that they havent looked like taking wicket anytime

 

[ChaudrySaab]

Bring Talha back on

 

[hur rizvi]

Average stuff from Junaid here

 

[Executioner]

Has to be one of the dullest test match I have seen in my life.

Hoped for some aggression from Lanka in the 2nd innings-disappointed but its ok that they are going for a draw/

 

[ekpakistani]

SL tactics really pathetic .. they deserve to lose this match .. and we are one wicket away from a total SL collapse

 

[saiyan0312]

junaid getting slight away movement but not enough to make the batsmen edge.

The way lanka approached this match, i was damn sure they won't be aggressive, they have played this match in negative spirit

 

[Sherlock]

SL deserved the previous match but they haven't shown any winning mentality at all. Some poor poor cricket all round.

 

[hur rizvi]

junaid getting slight away movement but not enough to make the batsmen edge.

Not much swing he is relying on angles, wont pick up a wkt unless batsman throws away his wkt

 

[hur rizvi]

-ive line from rehman, won't do any good for Pakistan

 

[EarthBoltX]

SL tactics really pathetic .. they deserve to lose this match .. and we are one wicket away from a total SL collapse

And two wickets away from the guy who scored 95 in the first innings.

 

[96NotOut]

Exactly, looking pretty ordinary today. Apart from those 2 sixes from Juni...!

 

[London_Lahori]

SL blocking us out of the game.

 

[96NotOut]

This Test is sooooo boring.

 

[saiyan0312]

weird shot by mahela.

 

[saiyan0312]

Not much swing he is relying on angles, wont pick up a wkt unless batsman throws away his wkt

exactly slight swing. not enough to get the edges.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Juni not even clocking 135 regularly today...Whats going on?? And his bowler description shows Left Arm Fast

 

[London_Lahori]

Got myself a HD stream

 

[saiyan0312]

last 28 balls RR 0.89 ..

 

[London_Lahori]

This is so boring. Not often the Pakistan batsman are 10X more exciting then the opposition.

 

[ChaudrySaab]

Junaid bowl closer to the off stump ... He's bowling too far outside off

 

[saiyan0312]

maiden.

 

[chacha kashmiri]

The test rankings mean nothing to sri lanka

 

[saiyan0312]

I think we will see talha back from junaids end.

 

[leatherface58]

Angelo Tavare and Misbah Jayawardene showing remarkable aggression and initiative.

 

[ChaudrySaab]

Come Sri Lanka!! Show some aggresion

 

[hur rizvi]

Got myself a HD stream

should rather watch something else in HD rather than this match

 

[MarkCooper]

You have to feel sorry for the crowd of 7 people having to watch this rubbish.

 

[London_Lahori]

should rather watch something else in HD rather than this match

I'm an optimist, this HD stream will provide Pakistan with 3 wickets in the next 10 overs

 

[saiyan0312]

19 overs and six wickets. Cant get them all out before the end of day.

 

[Sherlock]

You have to feel sorry for the crowd of 7 people having to watch this rubbish.

I know, but I suppose it's better than 5 thousand people watching a whitewash.

 

[ChaudrySaab]

Yorker wide of off stump, should have bowled it on middle stump yaar.

 

[Glory Of '09]

Bunch of kids in this thread go watch WWF or something. One wicket and we are back in.

 

[saiyan0312]

i am tried of seeing forward defense.

 

[hur rizvi]

Why is rehman bowling this line

 

[saiyan0312]

I dont think srilanka will declare even if they had only wicket left.

 

[hur rizvi]

Bunch of kids in this thread go watch WWF or something. One wicket and we are back in.

I wonder where that wicket will come from

 

[saiyan0312]

Why is rehman bowling this line

negative bowling to negative batting. That will save the test.

 

[IJWBS]

Why don't the players just shake hands and go home instead of torturing us?

 

[MarkCooper]

Embarrassing

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Manzoor just dropped the match

 

[hur rizvi]

Khurram manzoor

 

[RehanG]

Khurram Manzoor WTGG

 

[London_Lahori]

OMG khuram Manzoor!!!!!!!!!!!!

He should be dropped for life just because of that.

 

[RehanG]

and look him chewing the gum as if the superstar.

 

[endymion248]

SL are the most boring team in test cricket. It has been their technique home to prepare flat tracks, win one session and block out rest of the series. And we gave them the necessary roads in UAE.

SL are the Chelsea of cricket.

 

[Asif321]

What the hell , you lazy Khurram , he deserves 100 lashes in National stadium

 

[ChaudrySaab]

Manzoor you ...

 

[OZGOD]

I wonder if SL will declare or bat till stumps on day 5

Chelsea is boring ? lol

Khurram dropped LOLLIPOP catch

 

[EarthBoltX]

Wow.

 

[London_Lahori]

So not does he only over celebrate his 50's he drops dollies.

 

[Red Devil]

 

[saiyan0312]

Manzoor #@$#$WTW#$^$%&$%&%^&%^&R^#@#%#$^$%&#U&%*$^U&*$%^*$^%&$^%

 

[mr-k]

He is bad fielder seen his feilding in this innings very low standard

What the hell , you lazy Khurram , he deserves 100 lashes in National stadium

 

[hur rizvi]

Khurram manzoor should be dropped from next series

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Manzoor

 

[saiyan0312]

that wicket could have been the match.

 

[ChaudrySaab]

If I was the bowler would have taken my shoe of and chased Manznor and give him a right slapping!

 

[London_Lahori]

SL's RR is now less then 2 RPO

 

[shahidafridi123]

Missed the drop. Was it easy?

 

[hur rizvi]

Ajmal is back to go through the motions

 

[Asif321]

im sooo sooo angry at this Khurram he was so casual , this would have let us to make inroads now no chance

 

[London_Lahori]

that wicket could have been the match.

Big drop, our ticket back into the series not just the game.

 

[Asif321]

Missed the drop. Was it easy?

even sohail tanvir would have taken it

 

[hur rizvi]

Missed the drop. Was it easy?

A dolly even for street level cricket

 

[London_Lahori]

Missed the drop. Was it easy?

My 6 month old nephew could have caught it

 

[saiyan0312]

Big drop, our ticket back into the series not just the game.

yep. Catches win matches.

 

[saiyan0312]

My 6 month old nephew could have caught it

catches like these come in gully cricket. just bend down and catch it.

 

[chacha kashmiri]

Why have they got him at silly point, he's not the most mobile

 

[dirk diggler]

this game is going nowhere, they lankans are on lockdown and when they offer a chance khurram manoos handles it like a grenades been thrown his way

 

[IJWBS]

That's the difference between teams like Australia and South Africa and subcontinental teams. Even if they were 1 - 0 up in the series they'd go for the victory instead of being defensive and playing for a draw.

 

[ChaudrySaab]

Good over from Ajmal there

 

[Asif321]

Matthews has been dropped 3 times , in 2nd Test by Sarfaraz, in this Test by Talha and Khurram

 

[hur rizvi]

Need to replace junaid with talha

 

[Glory Of '09]

Could cost the series pathetic drop!!!!

 

[Boi]

Ajmal needs to bend (pardon the pun lol) his back abit and contribute something here. Atleast pick up one wicket ffs.

 

[ChaudrySaab]

Jaya is rather elegant when he get's going
