so day 4 starts in a bit could (should) be the last day of this match, but i hope it rains whole day today.. and tomorrow
 
Hello all, day four and most likely to be the final day of the Johannesburg Test. Misbah and Shafiq put on a dogged stand yesterday, and the key will be how they fare against the new ball today, which is just five overs away.
Firdose Moonda sent in this weather update about 20 minutes ago: "We've had a fair bit of overnight rain but it was fairly bright this morning and has now clouded over a bit. Should start on time though."
 
is it a blessing that pakistan need to face 5 overs from old ball ... it will calm their nerves
 
Pakistanis looked better yesterday. This is over but there are good signs and no reason why they cannot win the next or last test.

For my fantasy team I hope Robbie P takes 6 wickets and Shafiq scores a hundred :facepalm:
 
rain overnight has freshened the pitch new ball will be a nightmare.
 
:four


not a perfect shot ... but lack of movement helps him to play the shot with such risk
 
bouncer by kallis ... it was a tough one to collect for Devillliers

extras for palkistan
 
Both look positive out there before the new ball . I will support Pakistani cricketers in everything they do if they win this
 
great commitment in the field by the big man even when they are on the top by a mile

On replay, that was a 4 conceded as Morne's foot was touching the boundary line as he picked the ball up to throw. But not given.
 
Now, Misbah has been driving outside off, can't afford that with new ball so let everything go and forget about square drive for next 20 overs
 
whren shafiq plays the ball out side off swinging away... u can see his middle and off stump....its not correct
 
First 30 mins have been fantastic for Pakistan ! Keep it up !

Chokers mode will be activated once the lead is less than 200.
 
Are we the only test side in the world whose batting ends when we are 5 down? That is **** poor for test cricket. Just look at it -> Safraz, Gul, Junaid, Ajmal & Rahat
 
Out to a stupid shot again. What was the need to play with your bat facing the point fielder.
 
the rest will follow like a pack of cards....sarfaraz is hopeless
