Sri Lanka v Pakistan | 1st Test | August 6-10, 2014 | Galle | Day 5

[Nuekboi]

Garbage field placement is leaking runs Misbah

 

[Adil_94]

This is still a good batting pitch not a minefield. Herath bowled really well plus our batsman had no intent tuk tuked and created pressure on themselves.

 

[Adil_94]

Reminds me of Headingley 2006 this game.

 

[hur rizvi]

Extremely poor field setting

 

[uberkoen]

**** this, I'd rather just go back to sleep!!

Go. We're better off without negative people like you.

 

[AZulfi]

Not often that you see a side lose a test match after scoring 450 in the first innings...

 

[Mamoon]

Rangana turned it miles yesterday getting manzoor in the process

Yeah, he's better than Ajmal.

 

[Square Drive]

Now Misbah is to blame for batting collapse as well?

He is the damn captain for a reason - he should've told the batsmen to play their natural game instead of block block block!

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan desperately need couple of wickets here , to slow things down

 

[hur rizvi]

Review it for time wastage

 

[saiyan0312]

I think there was inside edge and it picthed outside.

 

[uberkoen]

Loud appeal by Junni

 

[Nuekboi]

Someone please get FTB Mahela out on his special day right now

 

[Straight_Drive]

I don't want SL_Fan's team to win

hehe....well i want pak to lose more

 

[akamaka]

Cmon boys just attack the stumps.

 

[Mamoon]

Misbah has been garbage in this match.

 

[carbon11]

ajmal always folds under pressure, so it was always a big ask for him to bowl when our backs were against the wall.

eventhough he has performed ok against sri lanka, sri lankans play ajmal and rahman with ease over the years i've seen them.

 

[Square Drive]

Take a review, kill time!

 

[in_cutter]

Junaid's appealing is so annoying

 

[Justcrazy]

He is the damn captain for a reason - he should've told the batsmen to play their natural game instead of block block block!

That would have given pakistan 20 - 25 more runs here at least

 

[waleed88]

Good bowling junaid

 

[Saeed]

Please just few medians.

 

[saiyan0312]

ohh that was close. stayed low there.

 

[uberkoen]

Junni turning up the heat!

 

[Mamoon]

Criticizing Junaid's swing, we already know guy!!!!

It hurts. A couple of early wickets would go a long way.

 

[Electron]

I always knew that this Pakistan attack didn't have it to pick wickets, but I will be disappointed if they give away 100 runs in 20 overs on a Day5 pitch. Its still a draw for me.

 

[waleed88]

Yeah, he's better than Ajmal.

true..

 

[Square Drive]

York this damn FTB out!

 

[saiyan0312]

bouncer and a single. tharanga needs to go.

 

[Nuekboi]

Need a couple of wickets and draw is certain

 

[uberkoen]

Good over so far by Junni. More of the same please.

 

[Justcrazy]

Only wickets can slow lanka here

 

[Square Drive]

That would have given pakistan 20 - 25 more runs here at least

Every run here would be crucial!

 

[waleed88]

120 should've been a good score, Pakistan 20 runs short. I would rather have spin from both sides and make batsman work hard for runs

 

[IAJ]

Pakistani captains, bowlers, coaches allways talk big before a series but more often than not it backfires.

Both Misbah and Waqar were warning Sri Lanka against Ajmal, but he has been completely outbowled by Herath here. Really hate these rubbish talks.

Just shut up and go out and win matches.

 

[Mamoon]

Stop bowling wides.

 

[saiyan0312]

useless bouncer. bowl yorker junaid!!!!!

 

[Mr Consistent]

too high

 

[uberkoen]

Lovely bowling by Junni

 

[Square Drive]

Wide!?

 

[Adil_94]

I always knew that this Pakistan attack didn't have it to pick wickets, but I will be disappointed if they give away 100 runs in 20 overs on a Day5 pitch. Its still a draw for me.

In this era 100 in 20 overs is nothing. Even Pak chased 300 in 50 overs on a Day 5 track against Herath

 

[Justcrazy]

 

[Mamoon]

Ajmal is a bottler. Turns into a guinea pig as soon as the pressure is on.

 

[Adil_94]

Junaid bowling decentlty.

 

[uberkoen]

Junni's doing well.

 

[Nuekboi]

 

[hur rizvi]

SL going ahead of Required rate

 

[Justcrazy]

In this era 100 in 20 overs is nothing. Even Pak chased 300 in 50 overs on a Day 5 track against Herath

True .

 

[Chickenkorma]

this pak team is paaaaaaaaathetttttttttttticcccccccccccccccc

 

[uberkoen]

Nice work by Shahzad

 

[Square Drive]

Allah please, save this Test for the 18 crore awaam!

 

[saiyan0312]

Well fielded there by shezad. misbah has test fields when the match is looking like an ODI.

 

[Justcrazy]

SL going ahead of Required rate

That must have been the plan.

 

[hur rizvi]

Ajmal needs to bowl over the wicket to Tharanga and around the wicket to MAhela

 

[Mamoon]

Pakistani captains, bowlers, coaches allways talk big before a series but more often than not it backfires.

Both Misbah and Waqar were warning Sri Lanka against Ajmal, but he has been completely outbowled by Herath here. Really hate these rubbish talks.

Just shut up and go out and win matches.

Very well said, same old garbage.

 

[Justcrazy]

20 / 0 after 4 overs

 

[saiyan0312]

79 needed in 17.

 

[Nuekboi]

Please quick wickets

 

[waleed88]

Misbah this is not t20.

 

[Sakss]

79 needed of 17 overs...
A wicket or two would slow things down

 

[Fastandfurious]

Great over by Junaid!

 

[Sakss]

79 needed of 17 overs...
A wicket or two would slow things down

 

[akamaka]

Just bring the fielders in...

 

[Electron]

In this era 100 in 20 overs is nothing. Even Pak chased 300 in 50 overs on a Day 5 track against Herath

I don't know about the world, but our captain settles for a draw, even when there are 80 required of 20 overs.

 

[saiyan0312]

Cmon ajju. put an end to this.

 

[Ikball]

wHY ARE NOT THEY WASTING ANY TIME??

 

[Mr Consistent]

79 needed of 17 overs. RRR 4.64

 

[Adil_94]

Ajmal is a bottler. Turns into a guinea pig as soon as the pressure is on.

Misbah is trying to contain rather than take wickets. This pitch is still pretty flat.

 

[Mamoon]

You need top class fast bowlers in such situations. A couple of wickets with the new ball here would have set SL back.

 

[saiyan0312]

Two runs. choppedit and fielder didnt dive!

 

[hur rizvi]

Ajmal is giving too much room

 

[Mr Consistent]

2 runs taken by jaya

 

[Big Mac]

That's way too loose from Ajmal, just keep it tight and make the batsmen work for runs.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Better than a lot of other people.

Like your Tendulkar Shehzad SR and strike rotation.

It was almost painful to watch.

Now go scram.

What a girl.

Shehzad weren't out.

 

[Sakss]

Bloody easy runs of Ajmal

 

[Mamoon]

Misbah is trying to contain rather than take wickets. This pitch is still pretty flat.

World of difference between Herath's bowling and Ajmal's on the same surface.

 

[waleed88]

Pitch mai tou koi masla hi nahi

 

[Haroon786]

Cmon Ajmal.

 

[uberkoen]

16.3 remaining

 

[saiyan0312]

In ODI taht would have been a wide.
