Sri Lanka v Pakistan | 1st Test | August 6-10, 2014 | Galle | Day 2

[Mr Consistent]

sarfraz gone

 

[uberkoen]

What is a good total now for the first inning

here he is! JilaWatan is a Sarfraz hater!

 

[Aman]

Nobody cares about this boring series.

Test cricket is Test cricket, the ordinary coverage doesn't help though..

 

[Sam18696]

Sir Fraz gone

 

[Ikball]

People have JINXED him,.

 

[Saeed]

Nobody cares about this boring series.

It can't be more boring than match we will see in about 2 hours.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Don't really mind his wicket, 400 is still a possibility with a few batsman left, Ajmal is a decent tailender

 

[Mr Consistent]

well played sarfraz

 

[uberkoen]

man youve been sleeping under a rock? this guy is a torture to watch with the bat. he bats at a very critical spot which should be reserved for a hitter (a batting all rounder). i remember this guy tried to sweep a fast bowler... im sure his FC avg speaks volumes of his batting ability but lets not forget we have a shoddy Domestic system. not taking anything away from his keeping skills but his batting never translated well in the international circuit. he is a liability with the bat and should be no where near the odi/t20 side. maybe try him in tests, as his slow batting at the 7/8th spot could prove otherwise. im not sold on him as our future. and yes he has received plenty of chances. he may not be a bad wk/batsman but he isnt good either. for the position he bats, he needs to be faaaaar more aggressive. and weve seen thats not the case. maybe rizwan or someone else. def not this guy

A humble pie for you sir?

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Legendary knock from Sarfaraz comes to an end

 

[Justcrazy]

Sarfaraz gone

 

[Aman]

Can the Pakistani tail get them to 400-420?

 

[Nuekboi]

Sarfraz why do dis. AND THE CROWD GOES WILD XD

Just get Ajmal to throw the bat around now

 

[Mr Consistent]

its time to slog..

 

[JilaWatan]

Haha that I am. I'm eating a mighty humble pie

 

[Shafi]

Sarfraz out!!! Needs to be little relaxed!!!

 

[lilFlip]

Stupid way to get out.

Brain ****.

Whats wrong with this guy

 

[Nuekboi]

Legendary knock from Sarfaraz comes to an end

Legendary is really pushing it. It was a good, quality knock, just leave it at that

 

[Ikball]

Nobody cares about this boring series.

Then why are you here?

 

[razabbas]

We have almost reached 400

 

[Saeed]

Abdur Rehman got him out. He became underpressure because of his tuking. This guy should be no where near the team, worst batsman ever.

 

[Justcrazy]

How much more can the tail slog now

I expect to contribute some here and get over hyped as bowling all rounder

 

[angrypathan]

sarfaraz out

 

[Madplayer]

junaid should be sent in to slog..he hits massive sixes. haha

 

[saiyan0312]

and great catch. Sarfraz quick fire 50+ innings ends. Great knock there and an important one. time for the tail.

 

[JilaWatan]

A humble pie for you sir?

hey I did say he should've been in test.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

We need 30 more runs from the tail

just bat your averages guys common !!

 

[junaid.ahmed]

I wonder where are the Sarfaraz haters now?

no one hate him I think
but he is just hatched it will be good if he continues like this in future

 

[Aman]

Once the England v India match starts, I'll probably switch over.

The coverage and build just is nowhere close to that series.

 

[uberkoen]

Abdur Rehman got him out. He became underpressure because of his tuking. This guy should be no where near the team, worst batsman ever.

You do realize that there is more to cricket than just batting, right? Or are you the type who would run off with his bat and ball once he got out?

He's in the team more as a bowler than a batsman. Next you'll be saying we should replace Junaid with MoYo because Junaid can't bat and Ajmal with Umar Akmal.

 

[Amjid Javed]

SL now into our tail, no point any of these guys trying to hang around, migth as well play some shots. Rehman at 8 is 1 position to high, we need to just get another 30-40 runs here some how.

 

[uberkoen]

Good riddance!

 

[Sam18696]

Here comes Ajju

 

[uberkoen]

Ajju to score his career best 51 today!

You heard it here first!

 

[Sam18696]

Slogging time plz

 

[Madplayer]

rehman should bat at no. 12

 

[Aman]

SL now into our tail, no point any of these guys trying to hang around, migth as well play some shots. Rehman at 8 is 1 position to high, we need to just get another 30-40 runs here some how.

Rahat can hit a few dingers, did a number on the Zim bowlers a while back.

 

[Madplayer]

woah pontingesque pull by ajju

 

[Sam18696]

Wah Ajju

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Sarfraz should have kicked on IMO, no need for that shot till ajmal came in . Still a pretty good innings that's given hope for the future

 

[ExplicitAI]

What confidence from Ajmal

 

[Saeed]

He's in the team more as a bowler than a batsman. Next you'll be saying we should replace Junaid with MoYo because Junaid can't bat and Ajmal with Umar Akmal.

No but at least even a tialender should be able to hit out. This guy is blocking everything.

 

[Mr Consistent]

another 3 added to total

 

[hur rizvi]

BAck to Back 3 decent batting performances by Sarfraz in 3 test matches since his comeback, He hasnt done anything extraordinary but still has exceeded the expectations of most Pakistan supporters..

Long may his good form with the bat continue

 

[ExplicitAI]

I think Rehman is starting to play a lot quicker now, he's was just sticking around and letting Sarfraz take on the bowling

 

[Saqib]

I think Pakistan should approach now attacking mode, having the pitch state in mind that it's flat pitch and Sri Lanka also have to bat. Hopefully we can bowl out Sri Lanka on time and this test match has a result. Also the rain could be a factor with a possible result.

 

[razabbas]

ajmal there is not much diffrence between SL and county attack you can score another fifty

 

[Yatoo]

Ajmal is in tremendous form. Made 53* at less than run a ball against Leicestershire

 

[Saeed]

At least the lead is increasing from one end. Abdur rehman must take a 5fer after his pitiful batting.

 

[Sam18696]

Two full toses missed

 

[razabbas]

just loving the way ajmal is throwing his bat on every delivery

 

[dhump]

At least the lead is increasing from one end. Abdur rehman must take a 5fer after his pitiful batting.

Since when rehman is considered a batsman ?

 

[ExplicitAI]

400 is now definitely on the cards, well done to entire Pak XI

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Sarfraz is not only scoring runs but also doing it quickly, thats what Pakistan test side needs. Hopefully he will keep on doing this for days to come, finally a kick to Kami bhai.

Kami has long since not been in the Test side . You mean The Gutsy :adnan??

 

[Saeed]

I though that went for :6 but good batting by ajmal anyway.

 

[hur rizvi]

At least the lead is increasing from one end. Abdur rehman must take a 5fer after his pitiful batting.

Stop whining he is not in the team as batsman

 

[uberkoen]

At least the lead is increasing from one end. Abdur rehman must take a 5fer after his pitiful batting.

He's still out there. Stop hating. He's done his job. We've scored what we wanted to score. There is no need for unreasonable comments and baseless accusations.

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Ajmal tuking like the king himself.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Ajmal tapping his bat like Afridi

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Since when rehman is considered a batsman ?

He is an Allrounder

 

[razabbas]

Btw no one noticed that our spin duo is batting together

 

[Saeed]

Since when rehman is considered a batsman ?

Now days even tailenders have to bat. For example last few matches between India and England.

 

[dhump]

He is an Allrounder

LOL this has to be a joke.

Now days even tailenders have to bat. For example last few matches between India and England.

We normally have problems with no 1 to 5 batting forget about tail

 

[uberkoen]

I though that went for :6 but good batting by ajmal anyway.

How is it good batting by Ajmal and not Rahman when Rahman's strike rate and runs are more than Ajmal? You're just a useless troll.

 

[Shafi]

how about Rehman replace Manzoor as a opener?

 

[GreenKnightRises]

ajmal there is not much diffrence between SL and county attack you can score another fifty

Yeah.Even Shafiq scored a fifty

 

[uberkoen]

I don't understand why Sri Lanka aren't bringing Herath on

 

[Ikball]

Once the England v India match starts, I'll probably switch over.

The coverage and build just is nowhere close to that series.

Thats Great..!! Will be trolling you there.

 

[Saeed]

How is it good batting by Ajmal and not Rahman when Rahman's strike rate and runs are more than Ajmal? You're just a useless troll.

He just came in. You have to give him sometime, trust me.

 

[uberkoen]

Why are people taking pictures instead of watching the game? What a waste.

 

[uberkoen]

He just came in. You have to give him sometime, trust me.

We'll see. You'll be eating your words soon.

 

[uberkoen]

Beautiful shot by Rahman! Picking up the short delivery for

 

[HamzaSaeen]

That four brings up the 400

 

[ExplicitAI]

Nice pick up shot for

 

[Sam18696]

400 up

 

[Ikball]

400

Way to go, Pak should score 500 to have grip over match.

 

[razabbas]

400 up

Now each and every run will be bonus 3 wickets still in hand i hope they can add 50 runs more

 

[Saeed]

Why are people taking pictures instead of watching the game? What a waste.

Because they are bored by Abdur rehman batting.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

. This Guy Rehman has immense talent
