Second Test Day 2 Score Updates and Discussion [17/03/05]

[MIG]

7 more to 125.... cmon guys take us home now...

 

[octavian]

Pakistan 118/2

yoyo and yk need to get toms here both are well set... sadly are openers threw it away afta good starts.

Toffe never had a start. He scored 18 in 3 innings. good for us i say. I wonder when people say he is the best we've got ??

 

[Raz]

Amjid Taufeeq never looked comfortable. I wouldn say he had much of a start. Shahid got a start but unfortunately couldnt capitalise.

 

[Schiller]

"vaseline wouldnt 'do it' for him, it'd have to be the chilli vaseline"

ha ha ha ha D D D D

 

[ali kc]

50 partnership from 77 balls

 

[alghazzali]

YK nearing a milestone this is where he is vulnerable.

 

[MIG]

YK needs to get to 50 - his confidence will be sky high then - 10 more for YK...our VC !!!

 

[Schiller]

yk needs to make a century here today for sure

 

[octavian]

YK in 40's . Allah Khair karay

 

[MIG]

Frankly if we can keep our late/middle order out of action for another 200-250 runs - we can get a big score - long way to go, but they are trying and Inshallah, they will succeed

 

[alghazzali]

wish Afridi was here 2 whack these 2 out of the ground

 

[Raz]

wish Afridi was here 2 whack these 2 out of the ground

Me too :-D :?d

 

[alghazzali]

Yoyo doing the right thing by hogging strike against Sing bcos Yk would be bamboozled

 

[MIG]

Ok safely past 125 now - 150 next and we are in busines....

7 more for YK for his well deserved 50....

 

[alghazzali]

RR dropping

 

[alghazzali]

Ok safely past 125 now - 150 next and we are in busines....

[MIG]

[MIG]

[Raz]

147-2 (33 overs) at Tea. Younis gets his 50, Yoyo looking good on 44. Very well done Pakistan.

 

[alghazzali]

Yeh nicely done, shud make another 200 runs with this wicket comfortably if they concentrate

 

[MIG]

O k tea time now - Well done Pak - definitely our session this one.... ( lost Taufeeq but no suprise there) since then the 2 have done extremely well and battled it out with the spinners - great moral victory....

 

[ataullah]

32.5 Pathan to Younis Khan, no run, pushed down to mid-off, straight to
the fielder, hint of reverse swing
Did akram teach him reverse swing too????

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan 147/2

well done YK.... now get a ton

 

[alghazzali]

India hit roundabout 55 fours wve already hit 22. So its looking gud 4 us

 

[tahaqureshi]

interesting stat alghazzali..but 7 of em came from afridi D

 

[alghazzali]

lol yeh hes just kool

 

[Amjid Javed]

pakistan need 2 get thru last session without lossing a wicket or just 1 at most...

 

[alghazzali]

even 2 wont affect us Razzaq and Akmal should b oozing confidence

 

[Raz]

We cant let this advantage slip now. We need centuries from both Yoyo and Younis now.

 

[Amjid Javed]

We cant let this advantage slip now. We need centuries from both Yoyo and Younis now.

100% spot on...

 

[tahaqureshi]

well its better to be safe so id rather we lose NO wickets..
but thinking we still have 4 good batsmen left..i dunno..

 

[Schiller]

agree with raz there
to get to anything decent we need a century each

 

[alghazzali]

If either of these get a century at the current r8, we will manage a massive lead, but knowing Pakistan we dont have perseverance and Akmal will b batting an important innings b4 we know it

 

[Raz]

We cant let this advantage slip now. We need centuries from both Yoyo and Younis now.

100% spot on...

Amjid you agree with me for once! I am honoured indeed!

 

[Raz]

Players out in the middle! Come on boys we need centuries from you!

 

[tahaqureshi]

well the two men due up, inzi and kamal, do have perseverance so hopefully a big lead is in the picture

 

[Raz]

Kumble to start off proceedings.

 

[alghazzali]

This appealing has 2 stop, sound like hyenas in Pakistan at night

 

[MIG]

150 almost up , next target = 175 !!!

Longer these 2 bat, better chance for Inzi and following lineup to take Pak to 400+

 

[Raz]

This appealing has 2 stop, sound like hyenas in Pakistan at night

D D D D D

 

[alghazzali]

Yk has 2 play himself i again by the looks of it

 

[Raz]

150 up for Pakistan

 

[alghazzali]

4!!! a streaky 1 by YK

 

[Raz]

50 to Yousuf. Well done!

 

[MIG]

We should end the day with 200+ for 2

WELL DONE YoYo == another 50 - another hundred in the making....

 

[Amjid Javed]
