South Africa vs Pakistan | 3rd Test | Centurion | 22/2/13 | Day 1

[iafzal]

lol he may be knocked out after one over

 

[JilaWatan]

M.M. : Doosray over ke doosri ball.. jee

 

[JibranAnsari]

Disappointing pace

 

[HASHAM2]

Rahat yeh kia cheez hai

 

[JibranAnsari]

Keen to see how Kyle Abbott goes, averaged 15 with the ball this past domestic season.

I guarantee you a 5fer if philander leaves any

 

[ViciousMachine]

Happy.. to Ehasan plying.. BUt why the hell FArHath Bradman....????..why are'nt those fools giving a long run to Nasir Jamshed.. Tht Guy played a well 45 in 2nd test... If so then they shouldnt have played Duckafeez..! He too was really bad with the bat

100% agreed! I would still play Hafeez over Farhat though. At least he can bowl and field. Farhat cant even hold onto simple catches.

Just a terrible player.

 

[PakPosheeda]

Left handed Sami

 

[HASHAM2]

and People do talk about Ehsan Adil pace
LOOK AT Rahat Speed

 

[ahmed778]

Not good line and length by Rahat.

 

[doctordamor]

God this is pathetic bowling by Rahat Ali what a waste of space no pace no control

 

[MRSN]

jaffer to finish the over,Rahat..

 

[JibranAnsari]

Rahat should complete his first spell of five overs. Needs to crank it up.

 

[JilaWatan]

rahat can bowl decent line, he just needs to have confidence.

 

[Aman]

This Rahat Ali looks very poor..... How can you guys carry on picking these trundlers?
Why was Riaz not picked?

 

[HASHAM2]

Give new ball to Ehsan Adil Replace him by Unless Rahat ali

 

[MRSN]

that was close..

 

[DW44]

145kph from Irfan.

 

[kingusama92]

What a poor first over there. Horrid.

 

[Asif321]

very well bowled

 

[HASHAM2]

This Rahat Ali looks very poor..... How can you guys carry on picking these trundlers?
Why was Riaz not picked?

and people compare Rahat with Sadaf Hussain type of Bowler

 

[MRSN]

Give new ball to Ehsan Adil Replace him by Unless Rahat ali

he bowled three good balls..give him some time..

 

[doctordamor]

man sami atleast has pace and he is bound to deliver atleast one wkt taking ball LOL

 

[yasir]

What a pathetic bowler Rahat Ali... How this man has an average of 21 in first ball baffles me... Very poor selection, he has no future why waste this tour??? - selection committee what you have done???

 

[ahmed778]

Good stuff from Irfan.

 

[Silverlion]

even pollock said to bowl a touch fuller, but why dont they listen.

 

[MenInG]

Irfan kee Qismet - 6 monts ago people on this forum would laugh at us suggesting he should be in Pak team and now he's leading our attack with such effectiveness!

 

[ahmed778]

Ehsan should be given the new ball if Rahat does not bowl any good bowls in the next over.

 

[MRSN]

good fielding, saved 4 runs there in the Gully..

 

[ViciousMachine]

rahat can bowl decent line, he just needs to have confidence.

Agree with you. It was 1 over.

Terrible over, I agree with everyone. But its his second test. Dont forget its not like Gul or Tanvir were any better options.

I would still pick Rahat and give him a second chance. Although I would have preferred to open with Ehsan.

 

[MILLIONAIRE]

dont make silly allegations like that.

Mate its my opinion, go check his youtube videos.

 

[JilaWatan]

What a pathetic bowler Rahat Ali... How this man has an average of 21 in first ball baffles me... Very poor selection, he has no future why waste this tour??? - selection committee what you have done???

haha rahat was picked on his performances. and he has done well in FC, as per his avg of 21. im sure given time he will get better (ex, junaid).

 

[MILLIONAIRE]

Come on give Rahat a break, he is just warming up.

 

[doctordamor]

Why no abdur rehman misbah madrrrrchhhoddd.

so you gonna go with 2 seamers only? On a pitch which is suppose to be seamer freindly> and whats up with swearing

 

[Asif321]

146 kph

 

[MRSN]

Rahat is gonna give us a break through as he's one bowling toucher fuller..

 

[JilaWatan]

Agree with you. It was 1 over.

Terrible over, I agree with everyone. But its his second test. Dont forget its not like Gul or Tanvir were any better options.

I would still pick Rahat and give him a second chance. Although I would have preferred to open with Ehsan.

couple of these deliveries that nipped back in were good line. just needs to maintain it

 

[talha3]

Rahat strikes. Good ball!

 

[pak4life]

I thought the team in the second test was one of the weakest to represent Pakistan but this team is even worse! Hafeez a consistent failure should be ashamed his still in the team in place of Jamshed.

 

[ViciousMachine]

What a pathetic bowler Rahat Ali... How this man has an average of 21 in first ball baffles me... Very poor selection, he has no future why waste this tour??? - selection committee what you have done???

Really???? Your going to judge Rahat on one game plus one over???

 

[MRSN]

Rahat is gonna give us a break through as he's one bowling toucher fuller..

told you!

 

[DW44]

NICE ...

 

[JilaWatan]

what did i just say

 

[Asif321]

Rahat ali gets first test wicket

 

[doctordamor]

Come on give Rahat a break, he is just warming up.

Out Rahat gets his 1st test wkt

 

[JibranAnsari]

Brilliant , he gets his first wicket.

Shabash.

 

[akamaka]

 

[MenInG]

Mate its my opinion, go check his youtube videos.

Mate you will be out of PakPassion if you make any allegations like that. Watch your step on this one.

If you have proof start a thread with analysis.

 

[iafzal]

Who is the fixer who called this out?

 

[doctordamor]

what a ball why cant he ball like this b4

 

[kingusama92]

Now that's more like it.

Great comeback after that pathetic first over.

 

[HASHAM2]

Wasim akram Type of Inswinger

 

[MRSN]

this should give him much needed confidence.

 

[Amjid Javed]

I hope pakistans most inexperienced bowling line up ever does some justice here. Good to see rahat ali get a wicket early on.

 

[ahmed778]

Good shape, nice line. Gets his first wicket.
Needs to bowl like this.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Shabash , get a five fer buddy.

Peterson is their weak link , aka hafeez.

 

[akamaka]

that was unplayable rahat just need to keep it that length and swing it in

 

[insurge]

That was a really good delivery!

 

[JilaWatan]

what a ball why cant he ball like this b4

he will bro! have faith

 

[ViciousMachine]

There you go boys!!! Well said JilaWatan - giving Rahat a chance, and early breakthrough!!!

 

[johnnybrutal]

Rahat looks pretty bad despite of the wicker, i dont know how this alviro guy is selected in the SA team.

Super excited to see Ehsan Adil, cant wait to see what the hype is about

 

[Saurav]

Rahat Ali reminds me of Amir.left arm,hair,action all same

 

[ahmed778]

Come on Rahat gets Amla.

 

[Asif321]

Multani tigers opening pakistani attack

 

[MILLIONAIRE]

Mate you will be out of PakPassion if you make any allegations like that. Watch your step on this one.

If you have proof start a thread with analysis.

Mate, I think you are getting a bit touchy. Chill out.

Its not an allegation, its an opinion. And I dont have time to sit here to start a thread with analysis.

 

[Sandeep]

Bowling well, this lad

 

[ares1000]

Rahat is awful. Yes he took a wicket, mubarak to him. But he has no pace, no bite. I cant believe guys hyped him. If these are the leading domestic quicks in Pakistan - the future is not green.

 

[HASHAM2]

Need 1 good bowl for Amla

 

[johnnybrutal]

Irfan bowling at 146, someone please teach him the inn dipper!

 

[JilaWatan]

almost touching 140 clicks. shahbash rahat

 

[doctordamor]

thats the line good crank up the pace now

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Guys koi pada hotay nhi seekhta, u hav to play and learn, but he still need to take wickets pak must get SA out below 200.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Umar gul didn't even swing 1 delivery

 

[Sandeep]

Expecting 4 sub 250 totals here with no Kallis... Cracker it should be

 

[JilaWatan]

good to see rahat gaining energy

 

[Asif321]

rahat has potential to bowl 145 ... but he has cut down his pace i think
have seen him bowl 143 in srilanka and 145 in fbt20

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Yup Rahath gets hiss first...!!!.... well played

 

[Justcrazy]

Adil should be part of shorter formats also.

 

[Irshadbhat]

Much needed confidence boosting wicket for Rahat

 

[HASHAM2]

Bowled 1 more Inswinger
Another Good bowler in making for US

 

[doctordamor]

inside edge saved amla man that was good call by steve davis
