What I still don't understand about Misbah is that even when the pressure is released and the batsman with him is settled, there's still extremely unnecessary blocks

for Pak fans, what you will get from this match is 2 useless fifties and losing match with some respect.

Win is impossible for Pak fans at this stage...

Its not impossible but very unlikely, the way they are batting , Pak won't get a big total, and the way we bowled so far in this tour, Lanka can't be bowled out for a smaller total.

Aaaah I see. Thank you for letting me know. I guess I should just go home and do something worthwhile like I'm sure you are.
 
This is a very risky strategy it's putting too much pressure on afridi and akaml if it comes of we might end up with 225-250 or we could collapse to 150.

hopefully Pakistan will win this test match, once the shine is off the ball Akmal and Afridi can go for boundaries and we can finish it all of today.

No, i think Misbah should send in nightwatchman next, too bad Rehman isn't playing.

Yeah it's definitely possible but the words pressure and Afridi just don't look right together haha.
 
Pakistan in much better shape now. Solid from these two. Cue the criticism "but but but they aren't scoring at strikerate of 900!!!!111one!!!eleven!!

But but they're not scoring at a strike rate of 300 like King Afridi!
 
Agree..need about 156-7 in next 9 overs..then aim for 100+ in last 14-15 overs..need one if these guys to play out the overs

Too many kids on PP who do not understand cricket. They should stick to IPL/BigBash etc.
 
Ramiz is commenting for Sri Lanka and looking for break through!!!!!! Our former players don't do anything to help our team without money. Wasim has time to give tips to Bangladesh and India!!!!

This is such butthurt logic. He's just saying if he was on their side what would be his approach.

You guys have some serious self esteem issues.
 
If I am Sri Lanka, I won't worry too much about not picking up a wicket. They have created enough pressure on Pakistan that it's just a matter of time before wickets start falling.
 
96/3 in 30 overs. No matter how bad the start was, this is not a satisfactory score at this stage. Both Misbah and Fawad have been too slow in scoring runs.
 
46 and 55 srs...Beautiful display of Test cricket by Fawad and Misbah
oh and :four as i type this
 
That's a good 50 from Misbah. He should go on and get his first century today. It would be the best time to get his maiden century.
 
people like Fawad, Kohli and Amla would have regular run outs cos they're too eager to rotate lol

Agreed. Where I'm sitting alot of people are actually swearing at them and want them to get out so Afridi "the saviour" can come in :facepalm:

Yaar there are actually a select few in our nation who actually understand this game. The rest are interested in slog fest alone and then blame the one they hate when we lose.
 
thing with fawad is that once he's into the <50 SRs, he can't really improve cos he isn't that type of player. Misbah as we've seen can hit massive but Fawad can't. This is what happens when he fails to stick to his stronger sides...rotating
