Pitch looks very good for batting!

Shame ICC cant fkin give us some decent umpires for the game!
 
SL have gone through difficult period ....so easy pitch now ..... :misbah
 
Maybe a good thing pakistan are being tested here for once!
 
Srilanka have only five proper batsman in this game
Jayawardene n mathews remaining

Silva and tail can be easily removed.
 
I seriously doubt Srilanka can bowl paksitan out twice

though they have bring in an extra spinner ...but to take 20 wickets will be tough

Its not only pitch or the bowlers, a score of above 500 has its own pressure.
 
yaar, nothing is happening in the middle, I am gonna go take a nap.

I'll be back to check on the match a couple of hours.

Better get at least 3 wickets by then!
 
It was only a matter of time before SL batting clicked. They are way too good to fail in three Tests in row on these flat wickets.

And it doesn't help Pakistan when the umpiring is so poor. Dilshan was a gonner before lunch and now he is eying a big score instead.

But a couple of quick wickets and we are back into the game...
 
Long way to go but if SL get a good score in first innings then we are in trouble
 
even commies wanting Misbah to do some experiments...

Yaar Misbah bring on Azhar or Hafeez please!
 
Pakistan looks off. I wonder if the spot fixing case is affecting them. There are a lot of things happening in the background. For example Wahab is being sidelined by PCB but as far as I know Wahab is still in the camp. These things can affect the mental tuning of the team players.

Well if it hadn't for that sucky Indian Umpire you would have know the bowling standard.

Bowlers have bowled decently it is a flat track plus TARAPOORE has ruined the day by giving Dilshan not out....

don't blame the innocent umpire, he is still learning :afridi
one thing i observed from our umpires is that they are batsmen friendly,
then tend to give not out for out rather than giving outs which are actually not outs :D

Well if they are learning they should stick with IPL not Test Cricket.

What a s.h.i.t umpire....


Dilshan punched the ball and he gave himn not out

Should practice at domestic level rather than ruining test matches :facepalm:
 
Pakistan need to try and dry up the runs and hopefully a mistake will come. This is a good test of character for pakistan now though!

If Dar can learn from the "AB De Villers not-out", why can't him? :)

Dar has given only 2 or 3 bad decisions in his entire career

Tarapoore has given 4-5 bad decisions in his 1st week of umpiring :facepalm:

Wicket will be tough to bat on 4th day as it will start spinning from day 4

i think 3rd day will be easy to bat on ....

The way they sleep at the wicket in the previous 2 test matches :) they have to play that way in this match if Srilanka score 350-375

Good reply totally owned him.
And the list of poor decision will only increase for Tarapoore maybe 100 bad decision in his career.

Need a really super session here! 9 wickets please! :)
 
If sri lanka get 450-500 it will be a test for pakistan!
 
Only worry for this match is we havent failed with bat yet in the series! hope that doesnt happen!
 
Dilshan lucky to have been out there in the 1st place!
 
Need to get MJ out early as hes due some runs! maybe we can pull this back now with a few more wickets!
 
after the court case, this match feels prosaic in comparison!

Just joking, go on boys and win this. the only to clear the doubts is winning at everything (or at least trying)!
 
Ok another 2-3 quick wickets and Lanka will be 320 all out :)
