South Africa vs Pakistan | 1st Test | Johannesburg | 1/2/13 | Day 1

[adnan yasin]

i think enough of younis khan .. part timers usuallly dont take more then 1 wickets .. in one go

 

[saiyan0312]

Ma n it would be great if Younis gets another.

 

[battler]

after seeing amla's dismissal,kohli will be our front-line bowler for us when we tour south africa)

 

[asif9138]

need this wicket before tea

 

[saiyan0312]

Oh my GOD... that was a very good inswinger. just did a little inswinger and could have gotten an edge. Sadly he is bowling better than rahat.

 

[waqar goraya]

Already noticable inconsistent bounce.

 

[asif9138]

youns malcom khan

 

[saiyan0312]

Gul has bowled well this morning.

And I'm in the 1%

I am also in the 1% and i agree. he bowled well with junaid.

 

[CalculatedRisk]

I've noticed Amla does not do well against slower balls, medium pace, or when ball is not coming on to the bat. In the world cup tanvir got the better of him i think.

 

[waqar goraya]

after seeing amla's dismissal,kohli will be our front-line bowler for us when we tour south africa)

Now,you can expect wickets rather than runs from him in South Africa...

 

[waqar_ahmad]

Give a few overs to Hafeez.

 

[Jo_Don]

does anyone no of an radio station on internet covering the test?

Radio 2000. But be prepared for some crappy biased commentary.

[saiyan0312]

ssss... they both are riding their luck. that was an inside edge but his pad saved him.

 

[Badsha]

How has Rahat Ali bowled today? Missed the morning action.

 

[asif9138]

rr drop..good sign for us

 

[Mian Hassan]

we are 1 wicket away from their lower batting order which doesn't have much expirience

 

[Pak_Lover]

I can feel another wicket for Junaid Khan

 

[saiyan0312]

after seeing amla's dismissal,kohli will be our front-line bowler for us when we tour south africa

You sure. Amongst part time bowlers who bowl pies and dollies he is a wasim.

 

[Bullet Drive]

De Villiers really struggling.

 

[Badsha]

In whose favor?

 

[waqar_ahmad]

How has Rahat Ali bowled today? Missed the morning action.

went at almost 5 an over, so cant be all that good

 

[Bullet Drive]

I think we should take YK off, put on Ajmal.

 

[asif9138]

down the leg

 

[saiyan0312]

Playing slow and not taking risks. run rate climbed down.

 

[Bullet Drive]

The wicket of AB will be key. I reckon if we can get one more wicket we'll run through Elgar and co.

 

[Bullet Drive]

The spin king is back.

 

[Jo_Don]

In whose favor?

SA. SABC is where all the bottomfeeders who couldn't land jobs at SuperSport go.

 

[asif9138]

bring on hafeez for few overs

 

[saiyan0312]

Ajmal is back.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ajmal should bowl OVER the wicket.

 

[Badsha]

It's unavailable :/

 

[Bullet Drive]

Need to be someone there at 45.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Good pressure being applied by pakistan here, runs being dried up and we keep taking wickets at the right times.

 

[Strike!]

Bowl Hafeez.

 

[battler]

You sure. Amongst part time bowlers who bowl pies and dollies he is a wasim.

i remember in t20 world cup hafeez made him look like the next wasim lol)

 

[asif9138]

ajmal did not get his line right

 

[Badsha]

went at almost 5 an over, so cant be all that good

I see.

I haven't seen the pitch or anything but I have a feeling we should've gone with one more bowler.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ajmal allowing too many easy singles.

 

[JibranAnsari]

ajmal needs to come over the wicket

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan should be trying to get S.A out for less then 300 now, time to be ruthless.

 

[waqar_ahmad]

I am not a fan of AJmal bowling round the wicket. He is killing the natural off spinner's bowling around off stump method

 

[Bullet Drive]

Need to get these next 6 wickets for 100 runs.

 

[Bullet Drive]

10 minutes till the tea break.

 

[asif9138]

yaar ajmal needs to bowl over the wicket

 

[Bullet Drive]

I think one more wicket will make it PAK's session.

 

[Bullet Drive]

AB really struggling with his timing.

 

[waqar_ahmad]

I see.

I haven't seen the pitch or anything but I have a feeling we should've gone with one more bowler.

Pitch cant be that bad. 5 an over is too much. Not a good start by Rahat, but then this is his debut game.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Faf will get out scoring five more runs

 

[Bullet Drive]

Lovely bowling by Junaid.

 

[shakil]

Save Junaid for the new ball. They should try Rahat now

 

[Pak_Lover]

one wicket before tea will definitely put Africa under immense pressure

 

[saiyan0312]

juni bowling and these two playing the old test. lets see who wins this staring contest.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Beauty. Good defense by AB.

 

[Ahson8]

Come on Juni!!!!!!!!

 

[taqi]

quite period of play SA is waiting for Tea ... one wicket before tea will make it pakistan's session

 

[Bullet Drive]

Junaid bowling so well.

He must be really tired.

 

[asif9138]

wicket is easy to to bat on

 

[Bullet Drive]

I'm just thinking of how Asif would bowl on this pitch

 

[saiyan0312]

i remember in t20 world cup hafeez made him look like the next wasim lol

We made perrera look like wasim. We make them all look like wasim.

 

[Bullet Drive]

AB missing out again. He really isn't seeing them well.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Sarfraz has been keeping brilliantly so far.

 

[saiyan0312]

That was wide. Come on juni. you are bowling good just take wickets too.

 

[waqar goraya]

Yep.Hafeez can do blocking job as good as Ajmal..Ajmal should be little more attractive...

 

[Bullet Drive]

lovely

 

[Bullet Drive]

AB scores his first boundary.

 

[Jo_Don]

I'm just thinking of how Asif would bowl on this pitch

With his foot over the line?

 

[JibranAnsari]

Sublime shot and :4

 

[Bullet Drive]

I think Ajmal is being way to defensive today. Bowling on the pads allowing easy singles.

He's an attacking option, he needs to bowl an outside off-stump line.

 

[asif9138]

4444444444

 

[Bullet Drive]

with his foot over the line?

 

[JibranAnsari]

Last over before tea probably

 

[saiyan0312]

Younis Khan has gotten Samraveera,Ian Bell and Sehwag before. Looks like has a knack of getting otu strong batsmen. We need another wicket now.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Over the wicket from Ajmal now.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ajmal hasn't bowled many doosra's

 

[JibranAnsari]

150 comes up

 

[asif9138]

yes ajaml over the wicket

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ajmal in my view has been too defensive and negative.

 

[Bullet Drive]

This should be the last over before tea.

 

[asif9138]

again round the wicket

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good delivery there by Ajmal, pacy!
