Babar haters will never acknowledge it, they will call his attacking shot a choke. Just as they never acknowledged Rizwan recovery with KG in the first inning, calling it Begani shadi mein Abdullah dewaana, when it takes two to get married and form partnershipand two to form a batting partnership. Haters can hate as much as they like but Rizwan also held some superb catches in this match.

Until RizBar haters acknowledge the insurmountable damage these two and their agency have caused to Pakistan, there is no moving forward.
 
Thank you Cricket South Africa for dropping this test for us. The money will reach your designated broker shortly today after completion of the the job.

Your truly,
BCCI


:dada
 
If Abbas get's the last two he will get to 99 wickets in Test matches. Not bad in 26 matches.

Yea because having 6 pack makes you tough lmao.

From Both sides.

Damn, when i read those names, it sent a chill down my back.

AKhtar, Akram and Imran are just small guys infront of the might aswin, kumnle, jaddu and viagra.

Dont let your mask slip

Nothing embarrassing

I refrained from commenting on Abbas’s efforts in first innings. I also did think it was maybe time for him to hang his boots if he couldn’t get 4-5 on a wicket that suits his bowling at this level


Well, he’s put that right hasn’t he?
Click to expand...

He should never have been dropped! Embarrassing is watching erratic spells and getting thrashed in test cricket.

Pakistanis have a pace fetish. Abbas was dropped because of “pace is pace, Yaar” bridgade.
 
Still anybodys game though

Need one more quality burst from Abbas and some support from the rest

I fancy Khurram against rabada. They need to be patient though and not get overexcited
 
Shan needs to try Saim or Agha for an over or two, Tailenders tend to struggle with spinners, Infact most of SA batsmen would prefer to play Pacers. Abbas on one end and spinners on the other end, but I do not think Shan is brave enough to try it.

No. Not for you guys. It’s only you who has been on Shan’s captaincy leading into and through this Test. And we know what kind of things you like as a poster. You can try fooling others but we know your agenda
 
lovely comment on espn "Abid: "I am not surprised why Abbas was out of the team for so long since this is perfectly normal in Pakistan. I am interested in finding the name of that guy who brought him back. Medal should be given to him."" :abbas

As proven in 1st innings when Saim belatedly came on got the wicket inside three overs.

Pareshan needs to go. He can take no credit for this recent purple patch.

RizBar fans on a prayer mat hoping he loses

The problem with RizBar fans is they believe both these guys deserve permenent spot in all 3 formats without any accountability and only they have a right to play at position of their choice. I know some fans of Babar wants his captaincy back as well but unfortunately he is not performing
 
Aqib has done wonders since he joined

From losing to Bangladesh at home to beating England home and now beating South Africa away

So was the 2 England wins fluke?

Aqib javid is the name
 
this team is really not for the faint hearted to follow , Just pray that for once we end up on the right side of these close finishes and choke jobs. Still full marks to bowlers for their efforts , wish batsmen didn't made it this hard like always for bowlers and didn't gifted their wickets like they did yesterday.

I never said they are big or small. Infact all 3 are actually tall btw
But yes they aren't big guys. Neither is pipsqueak imran who is built like a. Toothpick. Wasim is diabetic and wants exactly strong physically.

Akthar was a roid abuser and has beach muscles. But yea that's not the point.

You mentioned tough ess. All of those 4 Indian guys are tough. They take plenty of blows. Something your impotent bunch won't be able to cope with. They will cry to their mommies if they cop blows during the game.
 
kron said:
In these pitches seems like accurate phiktrundler type bowlers do well

Abbas lmao

Good performance. But once a trundler always a trundler. Don't care about the result.

On flatter pitches he would get carted.

Indians - the most insecure people on planet earth. Sit back and enjoy the match instead of getting bitter about Pakistani bowlers

Beating any SENA team at home needs spinning tracks, which every one with a basic sense of cricket was begging on PP for years. As soon as we switched to those we won. It wasn't a hard concept to understand, not sure why people treated him like Einstein for suggesting it.

If he keeps winning then credit where its due.

90s Wasim was not.He rely more on swing.

He was still capable of 140 kph in later half of his career. Post 95-96 he relied more on his skills than pace though. At his peak he was 145-150 kph (late 80s to mid 90s)

I am not bitter. One thing is I want india to win the bgt and make finals I guess for wtc even though it's a rubbish comp. Series wins mean more

My partner is a saffer
I don't mind saffer winning at all. But if saffers win then india may not go through.
We have to rely on pakistan. Which means I have to root for pak to win this game. That is against Dharma.

Why are you getting so worked up? I am only telling you what we all know. They all want to play these rubbish leagues. Why point out Shaheen only?

Lol. I am just mentioning facts. You are the one who cant live without mentioning Riz & Babar in every post.

It's pretty hot in Centurion. Good that Abbas has got a rest, hopefully they can sort out the tactics to the tailenders during this interval too.

True I think they will just look for absurd ways to credit RizBar for the win

Babar could have decisively finished the game yesterday with 50 more runs but he is a mental midget and Glory of winning games alone is something he will never have in his career

Wasn't he carted around in Australia? And nz can't remember.
 
I am also not confident yet and many times we have seen Pakistan give away such positions
 
@Kianig89 if Shan wins this Test as captain, we will have a thorough discussion about his record of 3 wins out of 9 and also his English which you are very interested to talk about.

If this is the benchmark, then both teams are full of mental midgets bar Saud. No one else crossed even 50. They should have done it and brought game aside. It’s a team sport.

Success in cricket never achieved by one person alone, these people give credit to Rizwan unnecessarily.

Cricket is a team sport where the coach, captain, and players all share equal responsibility.
