Sri Lanka v Pakistan | 1st Test | Galle | 21/06/12 | Day 1

[waqar goraya]

couple of sweeps and ajmal is answer less...strange...

 

[NeVerMind]

We bring Gul on to get us a breakthrough, he does and Jaya is not given out. Awful. how do you expect people to watch test cricket on flat pitches with umpiring like this? Seriously you cannot have a test match without DRS as one mistake by the umpires can affect the outcome of the whole 5 day match!

 

[doctordamor]

when it will be pak turn same umpire would be given out like crazy

 

[waqar goraya]

its all because of gould

 

[saeedhk]

Pathetic umpiring

 

[doctordamor]

couple of sweeps and ajmal is answer less...strange...

Pitch is flat and if one sweeps good he can seriously hurt spinners. What i want to know its why ajmal doesn't try something over the wkt?

 

[Bullet Drive]

2 more wickets by the end of the day will be great.

 

[spaceshot]

kitne decision abhi tak pak ke against gaye ?

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ajmal must bowl over the bloody wicket.

 

[Bullet Drive]

3 fours in the over.

 

[NeVerMind]

Gul frustrated now and smashed for 3 boundaries by Jaya who should have been back in the pavillion!

 

[leatherface58]

Mahela looking in excellent touch. he is literally gliding like a dementor

[waqar goraya]

now...some idiots would say gul has not bowled well....but without watching the game

 

[doctordamor]

umar lost his head i dun blame him too hot 4 this crap

 

[Amjid Javed]

60 runs in last 10 overs!

simply not acceptable this from pakistan! Poor stuff!

 

[James]

Too expensive from Pakistan.

 

[doctordamor]

qts is why we r not able to get reverse swing going? Not just this match but lately why?

 

[waqar goraya]

please ajmal!!we dont have any other keeper who could catch a ball

 

[Bullet Drive]

Give a bowl to Azhar Ali. Change proceedings. Ajmal go around the wicket.

 

[spaceshot]

...srl will bowled out for 250.

Phattu prediction. bah

its all because of gould

Aman miyan ab zabardasti frustao mat.
Gould ne semis mein diya tha na out..?

 

[waqar goraya]

60 runs in last 10 overs!

simply not acceptable this from pakistan! Poor stuff!

its hot...a flat track....quality batsmen...and gould has intensified heat factor too much

 

[doctordamor]

pak has bowled good but its absolute flat track and now ball is just 10 overs away from being chnaged easy to hit around

 

[NeVerMind]

Even our spinners especially Rehamn can't keep it tight. Never seem them bowl this inconsistenly under Misbah who concentrated on keeping tight which eventually led to the wickets...

 

[Justcrazy]

This match heading for a draw.

 

[Justcrazy]

SL have made a flat pitch to make it a draw.

 

[NeVerMind]

This match heading for a draw.

Dude we still need to match the Lankans batting efforts before it is a draw!

 

[waqar goraya]

Phattu prediction. bah




Aman miyan ab zabardasti frustao mat.
Gould ne semis mein diya tha na out..?

hmmmm...but that not mattered but here it was his decision that mattered only

 

[Justcrazy]

Poor pitch for a Test Match.

 

[Justcrazy]

This will be a boring draw.......

 

[Bullet Drive]

Come on Pakistan. Need a few wickets here!

 

[spaceshot]

SL have made a flat pitch to make it a draw.

Why cant you use the edit button ?
Posting as if this is a chat window in here.

 

[Bullet Drive]

This pitch is way to flat but I feel we will get a result.

 

[Bullet Drive]

256-2 now.

 

[farazaidi]

set defensive field, damage control please

 

[Bullet Drive]

We seriously need to think about giving Azhar a few overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

Wickets is what Pakistan need.

 

[waqar goraya]

This will be a boring draw.......

this is the best one can hope...other option is a pakistani lost

 

[Justcrazy]

lacks imagination as a captain

 

[Justcrazy]

259 / 2

 

[leatherface58]

lol at the great Khan's prediction of 3-0 to Pakistan.they can still win it.
but seems unlikely.plus in 4th inning pitch will take a lot of soon and uneven bounce.

if its a draw it would be a win for pak, cuz from here on pak is always on backfoot and chasing the tail.

 

[waqar goraya]

he lacks everything except talking too much in dressing room

 

[Asif321]

forgein coaches doesnt work for pakistan i feel
everytime we get forgeiners team is in bad condition

 

[JibranAnsari]

Already 1-0 knowing how good are our batsmen , Pakistan should start worrying about second test.

 

[qamar84]

and not out

 

[talha3]

Another close call. This time the right decision I think.

 

[Justcrazy]

Maiden over.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Outside the line.

 

[Asif321]

arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez to Sangakara.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan will score 500 plus here.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Poor bowling from Hafeez.

 

[Justcrazy]

SL cannot get 20 wickets.

 

[Asif321]

i had high hopes from junaid but he after UAE seris looks a part time bowler .. hope he gets some nice coaching tips frm any previous legends

 

[JibranAnsari]

Pakistan can't get 5 wickets with no real fast bowlers.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ajmal must go over the wicket.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Gul is getting some reverse. 6 overs till the new ball.

 

[Justcrazy]

is not ready for Test cricket.

 

[NeVerMind]

Pakistan can't get 5 wickets with no real fast bowlers.

No I would say without DRS because Gul would have a had a couple by now...

 

[qamar84]

some people here who doen't watching all the match and looking just the scoreboard are embarissing me

guys dislhan was out early but umpire didn't give it and he ...... score a century

jayawardene was out but umpire again didn't give it and he smack around gul next overs of him

so please stop saying that hafeez is poor captain or there is coach problem or ours bowlers don't doing their job it's all umpire problem here

 

[JibranAnsari]

Junaid was never a good bowler with no pace and no tricks.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Must say Junaid has bowled very poorly this game. Wouldn't select him again for a long time.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rehman back on just as Gul was troubling the batsman and just as there was some reverse swing going?

 

[NeVerMind]

Rehman back now...

 

[Bullet Drive]

beautiful shot.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan lacks good strike bowlers in fast bowlers.......... you need fast bowlers in this format.

 

[Bullet Drive]

95* for Sangakara.

 

[NeVerMind]

hafeez has no luck!

 

[Bullet Drive]

268-2.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rehman must bowl quicker!

 

[Justcrazy]

needs to get wickets.

 

[farazaidi]

the negativity here is laughable really. Its only 1st day and some of you have already lost the game, pitiful

 

[Justcrazy]

268 / 2

 

[qamar84]

hafeez has no luck!

all pakistan has no luck here but this is nothing to do with luck it's all the umpire and not having DRS problem

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ajmal comes back.

 

[waqar goraya]

junaid has nothing for tests..
can not swing with new ball
nor can reverse...
then what he has???

 

[leatherface58]

come on captain do something.team is looking flat.bring on an inspired change like Azhar or Younis.it's just day 1.
