Pakistan vs Windies @ Multan [2nd Test -Day 1]

[Saj]

A big wicket for the Windies.

Yousuf moved over to the off side and tried to whip the ball through mid wicket off Gayle. However he hit it straight to Lara who took the catch low down.

Malik walks in at 250 for 4.

 

[shan]

moyo out

 

[Waseem]

Gayle takes Yousaf, it's upto Inzi to take control now.

 

[Saj]

Pain on Yousuf's face as he trudge off the field - not happy with himself at all.

 

[Toony™®]

it was coming- inzi was taking up alot of the strike(not his fault) in each over...Moyo got restless.

 

[pakistani pride]

saw it coming, cheetah in !

 

[UJ]

Malik time - albeit for a few overs only

 

[Khalil]

With 3 overs to go why did we not bring on a night watchman

 

[Sheikh]

Fitting I guess; both Yousuf and Younis scored 56.

 

[MIG]

I expect Pak to cross 500 from this point onwards.

 

[shan]

Average day after Moyo wicket.

 

[kasoo10]

Now match is wide open I must say. If MoYo was on it would have been different.

 

[Uzzy]

We should have been atleast 300 by the end of days play.

 

[Saj]

short ball from Gayle. Hammerd to the cover boundary by the big man from Multan

256 for 4

 

[Saj]

nice use of the feet from Inzi. straight drive to long off for 1.
9 balls left today

 

[Saj]

long on and long off back for Malik - amazing captaincy really from Lara

 

[Khalil]

Inzi, Malik, Akmal nd Razzaq could easily add another 200.

 

[Rana]

unlucky MoYo, pakistan should win this match, is it a good bowling track?

 

[MIG]

Now match is wide open I must say. If MoYo was on it would have been different.

The rest of the batting lineup is there for a reason...

 

[Saj]

258 for 4 with one over to go today.

Malik to face

 

[Sheikh]

We should have been atleast 300 by the end of days play.

Theres 1 over left!!!

 

[Rana]

whats inzi on?

 

[MIG]

Simply put, cross 450+ and win this match. Windies rarely put in a decent performance in both innings.

 

[SUPERSAMI]

whats inzi on?

29 off 60

 

[Saj]

Play to continue for another 14 minutes

 

[Rana]

it looks to me that pakistan might go all out for 350, they need to pick up the scoring rate and put some control into the innings

 

[Saj]

Confusion, bails taken off by the umpires but there is 1 over left. ???

 

[Saj]

close of play. 263 for 4.

Pakistan slightly ahead in my opinion with Inzi at the crease with Malik and Akmal and Razzaq to come.

 

[shan]

wow 91 overs bowled

 

[Toony™®]

91 overs??? ...just in case, i expect.

 

[James]

Steady day's play from both sides, Pakistan are ahead slightly. The last time Pakistan played at Multan, Inzy didnt last long on the 2nd morning and Pakistan were knocked over pretty easily, now the big man faces a similar situation and if he can stay in tomorrow morning then 400+ is on the cards! What does Inzy average in Multan btw, it must be quite a lot.

 

[Noman]

it was coming- inzi was taking up alot of the strike(not his fault) in each over...Moyo got restless.

I was thinking the same.... MOYO is a experience batsman and one of the best batsman in the world, there was no point playing that shot.. but such things happend in cricket.... Better luck next time....

Now Inzi have to make a century and I hope malik and Kami big big centuries....
