[saiyan0312]

6 minutes before play is started... come on guys take them out before 200.... although not like you will be chasing this score either unless jamsheed does something.

 

[WebGuru]

7.35 The players are warming up, preparing to make their way out.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Why is there always a lengthy gap between when the inspection occurs, and when the players come on the field? In this scenario, there has been no rain for the last hour+, the pitch is good, the covers are off, what are they waiting for?

Pitch needs always one hour to dry.

You just can't start right after rain.

Although we all would like that : )

 

[Nuekboi]

Its always gonna be intense pressure on Hafeez and Jamshed to give a good opening partnership. They know as well as anyone how poopy this middle order is

 

[liaqat]

These 6 overs are crucial off course ,
I don't think Gul should bowl in them at all, Ajmal and irfan(1) and Junaid.

 

[liaqat]

Its always gonna be intense pressure on Hafeez and Jamshed to give a good opening partnership. They know as well as anyone how poopy this middle order is

Hence why :kami:kami should open with Jami. To protect Hafeez from his nemesis Steyn
