Pakistan vs Sri Lanka | Galle | Day 3 | 24/06/2012 | Match Thread.

[Bullet Drive]

Failure of a batting team.

 

[Bullet Drive]

That's why Ayub should have played aggresively with the tail!

 

[Asif321]

mister Ayub also Gone

 

[Mission18thMarch]

wow pakistan will follow on and get raped by like 300 runs

 

[Naraku]

Pak is getting close to a 100!

 

[I Believe in the Teesra]

Yes 100!

 

[MoinHaroon]

That's why Ayub should have played aggresively with the tail!

Pakistani batsman do not use their mind, what a lousy way to get out. Can't even put bat on ball

 

[Bullet Drive]

Gul should have a whack now. No point staying around. Have a hit and maximise the runs!

 

[Afridirocks]

100 ho gaya Mubarak Ho

 

[Mission18thMarch]

Yes 100!

oh my goodness Pakistan made 100 runs thats a huge achievement!!!!

 

[talha3]

) What an end. Not even one successful slog.

 

[MoinHaroon]

Gul should have a whack now. No point staying around. Have a hit and maximise the runs!

Maximize the run for what, buddy this match is going to be over today, Pakistan will loose by an inning and 120 runs

 

[I Believe in the Teesra]

What are the odds of a draw?

 

[MoinHaroon]

Why is gull playing like that

 

[Mission18thMarch]

finished Pakistan to get raped by 300 runs now

 

[MoinHaroon]

wow good job Pakistan!!!!

 

[MoinHaroon]

What are the odds of a draw?

Match is going to be over today no chance of draw

 

[Mission18thMarch]

not Pakistan's fault though umpires gave more than half the team out in wrong decisions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Obeid]

I think we should refuse to come out to bat again.

Ovalgate istyle

 

[cricketfan86]

100 all out

 

[Asif321]

FOLLLLOW ON

 

[Obeid]

Are we following on?

 

[MoinHaroon]

oh my goodness Pakistan made 100 runs thats a huge achievement!!!!

Misbah is going to be happy. He will know be the captain for 10 years!!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Great stuff.

 

[I Believe in the Teesra]

Adnan Akmal's reaction Needs to be more professional.

 

[I Believe in the Teesra]

In all honesty, I think Misbah in this lineup would have made a huge difference.

 

[MoinHaroon]

How many Pakistanis were not out? Younus, Taufeeq and who else

 

[Afridirocks]

What are the odds of a draw?

draw odds r 7.50

 

[Bullet Drive]

Taufeeq was not out. Younis was not out. Ajmal was not out.

 

[I Believe in the Teesra]

Bad umpiring + Lack of Misbah = Horrid defeat as expected. ICC doesn't like us. Its more than obvious now :[

 

[MoinHaroon]

In all honesty, I think Misbah in this lineup would have made a huge difference.

I would have to agree, may be we would have scored 30 more runs but we definitely would have played 40 more overs

 

[I Believe in the Teesra]

Sri Lanka should've finished around 250 runs with all the horrid umpiring calls in their innings. O well, moving on. Weather - 30% chance of rain. Whose feeling lucky?

 

[MoinHaroon]

Taufeeq was not out. Younis was not out. Ajmal was not out.

SL had 2 players that were out, how many were not out?

 

[Green Leopard]

Bad umpiring + Lack of Misbah = Horrid defeat as expected. ICC doesn't like us. Its more than obvious now :[

So

Bad umpiring + Lack of Misbah = Horrid defeat as expected = ICC doesn't like us

 

[I Believe in the Teesra]

So

Bad umpiring + Lack of Misbah = Horrid defeat as expected = ICC doesn't like us

Yes
ICC needs to make DRS mandatory or have some kind of input from 3rd umpires on lbw and edged plays.

 

[sada90]

another awesome performance by pakistan team ..well done boys ...100 scored by whole team

 

[Bullet Drive]

25 mins to go.

 

[MoinHaroon]

just reported that there were 9 controversial decision that were against Pakistan

 

[Wassixpakistani]

Splendid , my boys answered my expectations ................. Seriously , Kanjuus PCB !

 

[MoinHaroon]

If you consider 20 runs a wicket the difference would be only 100, not fair. No wonder SL did not want DRS, they are following India

 

[MoinHaroon]

Try thsi against England, Australia or India and rules would change in Cricket. Not nice to be Pakistani these time

 

[IAJ]

Lols since 2009 pakistan have 6 scores of 100 ore less. They should play Test cricket as it was ODI matches when they lose 3-4 early wickets, they will reach 200 at least by that strategy.

I cant remember I have seen a worse pakistsni test lineup.

 

[Bullet Drive]

So will Pak follow on..

 

[Badsha786]

At the last count, at least four decisions during Sri Lanka's innings, and three during Pakistan's innings, only one of them marginal, going against the visitors. I can recall only one going against Sri Lanka, the dismissal of Kulasekara. thats from cricinfo n they hate us

 

[MoinHaroon]

9 decision against you in two days is just wrong, that does not happen in any sports.

 

[MoinHaroon]

Not fair to any team

 

[Bullet Drive]

SL will bat on

 

[MoinHaroon]

SL will bat on

Oh then I can sleep

 

[Badsha786]

cricinfo are playing games nothing is confirmed yet

 

[MoinHaroon]

"In a week where the ICC will yet again discuss the Decision Review System, the Galle Test provided cricket's governing body more evidence for making the system mandatory for all international matches"
make it mandatory

 

[MoinHaroon]

Oh then I can sleep

it would be stupid because it rained all night

 

[Bullet Drive]

Didn't expect that.

 

[Badsha786]

adnan akmal classic

 

[Obeid]

Sri Lanka may have decided to actually bat..

Wow they may set us the biggest target in test match history

 

[Bullet Drive]

15 mins to go

 

[MoinHaroon]

Sri Lanka may have decided to actually bat..

Wow they may set us the biggest target in test match history

They are crazy why would you bat

 

[Obeid]

If we bowl them out for 80 we may stand a chance

 

[Badsha786]

SL batsmen are trying to boost they average let them waste time there is more chance of a draw

 

[Obeid]

They are crazy why would you bat

Even the commentator on Cricinfo is confused

 

[MoinHaroon]

they think they are Australia

 

[withlovefrom vizag]

Randiv 4/13,it sums up everything......
he is such an avg bowler.....but got support from reckless batting from Pak and friendly Umpires

 

[MoinHaroon]

Oh this mean the match will be over tomorrow

 

[LethalSami]

At the last count, at least four decisions during Sri Lanka's innings, and three during Pakistan's innings, only one of them marginal, going against the visitors. I can recall only one going against Sri Lanka, the dismissal of Kulasekara

 

[I Believe in the Teesra]

Bwahahahha they're going to bat. We HAVE A CHANCE!

 

[Badsha786]

SL are definately batting again 100 percent

 

[MoinHaroon]

At the last count, at least four decisions during Sri Lanka's innings, and three during Pakistan's innings, only one of them marginal, going against the visitors. I can recall only one going against Sri Lanka, the dismissal of Kulasekara

They said 9 decision against Pakistan in two days, with DL method 20-25 run a wicket and the match would have been even. Not good for the game of cricket, even soccer is using reviews

 

[withlovefrom vizag]

:3ddisgustIf SL decides to bat........
Just useless they already have a overwhelming lead of 372

 

[Badsha786]

what reviews is soccer using your losing the plot

 

[MoinHaroon]

Lots of Indian on the ICC board and no one in India wants to use review system even though they won the world cup because of that. Tendu was out and review said he was not.

 

[Luton Bad Boy]

What is the biggest margin of defeat in terms of innings and runs?

 

[truthseer]

Hang on. News coming in that Sri Lanka, for some reason I cannot fathom at all, have decided to bat on. We'll wait for official confirmation. I hope that it is never confirmed, I hope whoever came up with that idea is charged with attempting to destroy Test cricket. I hope I am hallucinating

 

[MoinHaroon]

:3ddisgustIf SL decides to bat........
Just useless they already have a overwhelming lead of 372

They might be right. They are thinking four of the batsmen were not out and Pakistan would score 100 more than SL might get out in the fourth inning against Ajmal

 

[MoinHaroon]

It is time for Hafeez to show that he the professor

 

[MoinHaroon]

Start with spinner and don't let SL score any runs

 

[Badsha786]

this umpiring is a joke im going to watch aussie rules instead!!!!

 

[truthseer]

Some stats
Randiv has an average of 18 against Pakistan
Source: http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/en...1;opposition=7;template=results;type=allround
Average of 39.61 against everyone else
http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/en...rderby=default;template=results;type=allround

 

[MoinHaroon]

Good for Pakistan, please start with spinner

 

[MoinHaroon]

Hafeez use your mind

 

[MoinHaroon]

come on spinners

 

[Looney]

No follow on . They have had enough of our batting .
