[saiyan0312]

AB is playing on back foot alot.

 

[Bullet Drive]

[Bullet Drive]

Younis Khan bowling last over before tea ahead of Hafeez.

[JibranAnsari]

yaar misbayh

 

[asif9138]

yk bowling last over

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez should have bowled this over.

 

[asif9138]

misfield

 

[Bullet Drive]

Pressure released in the last over by YK.

 

[asif9138]

easy runs comming now

 

[Bullet Drive]

154-4

 

[Bullet Drive]

2 balls left.

 

[asif9138]

common why easy singles given?

 

[Bullet Drive]

YK should NOT bowl any more now!

 

[saiyan0312]

last ball before tea.

 

[Little Master]

Dont understand the reason behind giving Younis the ball

 

[JibranAnsari]

Bad over so far

 

[Osman]

this is pressure releasing stuff

 

[asif9138]

8 runs already

 

[Bullet Drive]

159-4

tea

 

[shah_1]

Why is younis khan persisted, just got a fluke wicket

 

[Osman]

why not hafeez instead

 

[saiyan0312]

nice inswinging yorker but no more ...... the last session will decide who gets the day.

 

[IAJ]

Lovely inswinger in the end there.

But why hasn't Hafeez bowled?

 

[Bullet Drive]

I back Pakistan to take 6 wickets in the next session Insha'Allah

 

[Osman]

poor stuff last over before tea

 

[asif9138]

9 of the over..not good sign

 

[JibranAnsari]

8 runs , should have come in 4 overs. Bad decision to bowl younis this over.

 

[waqar_ahmad]

Can pakistan get SA out before 250? That is the question here

 

[saiyan0312]

not a bad session for both sides.

 

[Pak_Lover]

i back pakistan to take 6 wickets in the next session insha'allah

+1

 

[Amjid Javed]

S.A 159/4 at Tea

Another even session. Pakistan need to try and do some serious damage in last session and even maybe some how bowl S.A all out.

 

[Bullet Drive]

In other news.. Imran Farhat smashes 308

 

[IAJ]

I back Pakistan to take 6 wickets in the next session Insha'Allah

InshaAllah, that is the right attitude.

 

[JibranAnsari]

2 more wickets in the next session for 80 odd runs will be good and next 4 tommorow morning for 50 odd runs. 300-310

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

I wonder Hafeez hasn't bowled

 

[Jo_Don]

Cloudy now, but still some warmth in the air. Should get a full 3rd session.

 

[Jeetu111]

159/4 at chai time .... can saffers get to 250 ?

 

[waqar_ahmad]

Ajmal is making a big mistake by bowling round the wicket. He is easily being picked on the leg side. Need to change tactics here. He can strike big.

And Rahat needs to get a grip. Going at 5 an over in these conditions is just not acceptable

 

[saiyan0312]

i back pakistan to take 6 wickets in the next session insha'allah

+11111111111111111111111111111

 

[saiyan0312]

I say take them all out.

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

As I said before pakistani's bowling is being overhyped. There is potential, but it hasnt been put to test

Ohh come on what to expect from an indian.

 

[PAK_SAR_ZAMEEN]

Can pakistan get SA out before 250? That is the question here

If either du plessis or de villiers go after this tea break, we have a pretty good chance. But the south african tail isnt much of a tail, theyre like proper batsman with the likes of robin peterson. Heres where saeed ajmal comes into it. So yeaah there is a chance.

 

[Bullet Drive]

5 mins to go.

 

[waqar_ahmad]

Ohh come on what to expect from an indian.

Says the guy win love with an imaginary dynasty

 

[Bullet Drive]

159-4

 

[saiyan0312]

I think rahat should learn from Irfan. Irfan debuted was crap then became extremely dangerous. Rahat should do the same.

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

Says the guy win love with an imaginary dynasty

look at your indian bowling first.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Come on boys. This session we have to be on top of our mark, Rahat especially!

 

[Bullet Drive]

6 wickets coming in the next session. SA can score another 100 runs.

 

[saiyan0312]

You know we did give the number 1 team a run for their money in the first two session. Lets hope we can keep up the momentum.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Time for post tea session.

I've watched EVERY single delivery so far lol

 

[saiyan0312]

6 wickets coming in the next session. SA can score another 100 runs.

If we are taking 6 wickets i dont them making 100 runs however if this pair stays wont be surprised.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rahat has to come on now and bowl well.

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

You know we did give the number 1 team a run for their money in the first two session. Lets hope we can keep up the momentum.

Agree. This is the no.1 team and our bowling has done fine and people who are bashing the debutant need to realise he is against the best batting lineup in the world.

 

[FerozShahKotla2005]

I back Pakistan to take 6 wickets in the next session Insha'Allah

Okay sure, and then Umar Akmal will score 250 off 35 balls before the end of the day.

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

Okay sure, and then Umar Akmal will score 250 off 35 balls before the end of the day.

That's pathetic. Why bring umar here

 

[shokz1408]

why hasnt hafeez bowled even one over yet?

 

[IndianWillow]

So far so good for Pakistan (they were expected to take these wickets anyway), real test comes when they bat.

 

[saiyan0312]

It begins...

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rahat seems to be warming up.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rahat Ali to open up now.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rahat going at 4.78.

 

[saiyan0312]

Rahat ali bowling. come on kid make up for your bad sessions.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Why rahat will release all the pressure

 

[Bullet Drive]

Too many easy singles allowed by Rahat.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Beauty by Rahat.

 

[saiyan0312]

why isnt rahat clocking 140 KPH... . man that could have been edge.

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

beautiful ball that was

 

[Bullet Drive]

Love the way Misbah is smiling in the back. Helps team morale.

 

[taqi]

suddenly produce beauty

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good comeback by Rahat. Be consistent now.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Short and mis-timed.

 

[saiyan0312]

Come on rahat bowl those beauties.

 

[rockers2012]

he is good as a practice bowler in the nets

 

[Bullet Drive]

Overpitched. 1 run.

 

[saiyan0312]

full toss not put away.
