Sri Lanka v Pakistan | 1st Test | August 6-10, 2014 | Galle | Day 1

[Amjid Javed]

Good intent from YK here, well made 50! needs to go on and score a big 100!

Good to see hes not letting bowler settle here and this is how we should have been batting earlier.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Guys, does Younis' current form warrant him for a selection in ODIs?

 

[Justcrazy]

29th fifty for

 

[DrSchultz]

Misbah happy to just sit on the crease all day. Never see him getting frustrated.

 

[Mamoon]

Younis getting into his own now. Surely will get a hundred.

 

[jattafridi]

Job is not done we need 200 from younis

[Yatoo]

What just happened to Younus Khan. Half Century ki jaldi ya one day kay Lia fit hu, woh dekhanay ki jaldi?

 

[hur rizvi]

Younus needs to play a big one these days he has been guilty of throwing his wicket away many times

 

[Arsal_AK]

Younis is just too good.Toying with Pareera.

Good job on the fifty.

 

[SAfridi]

YK YOU BEAUTY!! Great fifty!

 

[imshally81]

Good batting by younus

 

[aukhan]

Another 50 by Younis...well played.

The best we had after Miandad in Test.

 

[waqar goraya]

Younis has been Pakistan's best player against spin , even better than Moyo.

 

[Mamoon]

A rare good knock by Younis on day 1 of a Test series.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Younis has been Pakistan's best player against spin , even better than Moyo.

True that.When he wants he can absolutely manhandle spin bowling.

 

[Arsal_AK]

A rare good knock by Younis on day 1 of a Test series.

Mamoon please don't jinx him

 

[CricketAnalyst]

Beautiful batting by Younis, and Srilanka are well and truly on the rack now. Time for Misbah and Younis to punish them and create the Pakistan win.

Edit: No. I don't believe in jinxes.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Wow that one turned massively.

 

[TalhaSyed]

 

[hur rizvi]

A rare good knock by Younis on day 1 of a Test series.

He needs to score a hundred, otherwise it will be just a stat boosting 50 nthing more

 

[Seen Sheen]

Younis has been Pakistan's best player against spin , even better than Moyo.

Yousuf was never one of the best. His record against left arm spin is pretty average. Inzi was always better and even Misbah is better than him.

 

[Mamoon]

Not jinxing, MashAllah.

 

[Mamoon]

can look a like tailender at times.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Misbah needs to show some positivity here, just seems to be intent on just blocking atleast try and work ball around more!

 

[Justcrazy]

100 up for Pakistan

 

[hur rizvi]

100 up, need atleast a 200 more runs

 

[Mamoon]

Misbah fans will say 'he's batting sensibly'.

A trash innings so far.

 

[Justcrazy]

needs to convert this fifty into hundred.

 

[imshally81]

Misbah fans will say 'he's batting sensibly'.

A trash innings so far.

Excellent support by misbah
Btw i am afridi fan only [emoji12]

 

[MarkCooper]

Class player. Is he from Yorkshire?

 

[Sakss]

Kade khush na hona nashukro

 

[asifp]

Misbah fans will say 'he's batting sensibly'.

A trash innings so far.

Yet with Cook and Amla did the same thing last week it was OK.

he is building a partnership that is most important.

 

[Ikball]

no player can sweep as beautiful as YK. lovely scene.

 

[Seen Sheen]

The jhaarro is always reliable.

 

[Justcrazy]

109 / 3

 

[Seen Sheen]

Class player. Is he from Yorkshire?

He played a season at Yorkshire. You can safely big him up now.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Misbah fans will say 'he's batting sensibly'.

A trash innings so far.

No he's struggling.

But at least he's not throwing it away.

 

[Ikball]

Misbah fans will say 'he's batting sensibly'.

A trash innings so far.

Yousaf Bhai, YK k baray kiya Kheayl hay?

 

[kamz]

Class player. Is he from Yorkshire?

yup him and inzi, have played for your very own yorkshire

 

[Ikball]

The jhaarro is always reliable.

Spot on..! thats correct terminology.

 

[Justcrazy]

no player can sweep as beautiful as YK. lovely scene.

he does it too often

 

[Seen Sheen]

Looks plumb. Shouldnt review.

 

[ExplicitAI]

 

[Ikball]

[HamzaSaeen]

Just woke up and wth is going on.
Time for YK to make it a big one for us

 

[hussain.r97]

My new Pakistan test team

 

[MarkCooper]

Missing

 

[saiyan0312]

see i said that he bats much better as he approaches his fifty. younis destroyed perera there. Great fifty and these two need to carry on.

 

[Mamoon]

has luck on his side today.

 

[asifp]

what a lucky escape.

That would have dislodged the bails

 

[uberkoen]

Brilliant use of appeal by Pakistan!

 

[ExplicitAI]

oohh sorry my mistake lol

 

[Mamoon]

Yet with Cook and Amla did the same thing last week it was OK.

he is building a partnership that is most important.

It wasn't okay, I criticized them as well.

 

[jattafridi]

Yes not out

 

[saiyan0312]

quick single there.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Good to see YK using DRS so well!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 111/3

 

[Afridi96]

Oh phew...

 

[Ikball]

Not Out

 

[Seen Sheen]

LOL light went as soon as umpire raised his finger and it looked adjacent in real time. Cant believe he has survived it.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Younus again lucky.

If that ball was clipping even just one hint of a bail, it would have been lost review.

Phew!

 

[MarkCooper]

 

[TalhaSyed]

What a review

 

[Ikball]

It wasn't okay, I criticized them as well.

Thank you very much dear, We shall not forget your this kind favor whole life.

 

[hur rizvi]

Misbah needs to up his scoring rate atleast a little bit

 

[Pakistani_Legend]

SL trolled by DRS! )

We have been on the lucky side regarding this so far.

 

[uberkoen]

What a shot! Younis 100 coming up!

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Younus again trying to get run out.

9 lives lol.

 

[saiyan0312]

GOD. WTH. nearly a run out there. Nightmarish.

 

[ExplicitAI]

I really hate this commentator with a passion

 

[hur rizvi]

When was the last time we got 2 of our DRS right

 

[uberkoen]

Misbah needs to up his scoring rate atleast a little bit

No he does not. Please come back for ODI or T20 when Afridi is playing. Leave the real cricket to real men.

 

[Red Devil]

First of the match!

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

When was the last time we got 2 of our DRS right

Never I believe

 

[Justcrazy]

looking good , needs to continue , otherwise Lanka will have upperhand.

 

[saiyan0312]

oh boy what a hit.

 

[MarkCooper]

Lol another drop

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Younus dropped.

Lol, this is unreal.

Younus has too many lives.

 

[zabalestmsm]

Why is Younus Khan in such a hurry? :/
