[hussain.r97]

Looking forward for pacers to come on when ball is old, waiting for some reverse...

 

[hur rizvi]

Trash bowling from Rehman, Time to drop him forever after this match

 

[saiyan0312]

back to back

 

[Mr Consistent]

:4 runs poor bowling by rehman

 

[Arsal_AK]

Rehman bowling pies.

 

[Shafi]

Rehman as usual bowling poor.

 

[hussain.r97]

Trash bowling from Rehman, Time to drop him forever after this match

Gotta bring Raza Hassan in, Rehman is finished and old, it's time to think ahead...

 

[vandokkum]

How old is rehman? Looks well into retirement age.

 

[Madplayer]

what has happened to rehman ? he was such a good test class bowler

 

[Shafi]

700+ Prediction, Pakistan 350 and 150.

 

[Mr Consistent]

chisti mujiad

 

[Arsal_AK]

WTH is Chisti doing??

 

[hur rizvi]

Lot of heads need to roll after this series

Rehman, Talha, Rahat, Khurram and Wahab should be dropped

I dont care who we select, Just drop these PAthetic cricketers

 

[Wristy_Shuffler]

Lol. Chisti!

 

[Mr Consistent]

50 partnership

 

[saiyan0312]

50 partnership here.

 

[hussain.r97]

WTH is Chisti doing??

What happened? I'm on cricinfo at the moment.

 

[Madplayer]

DRS is back

 

[Mr Consistent]

DRS is back

 

[hussain.r97]

DRS back in time

 

[Haz95]

Nice to see Umar Akmal in the XI [emoji51]

 

[Madplayer]

srilanka: 1st 50 run partnership in last 10 innings for the 1st wicket. thanks to Pakistan

 

[Shafi]

Our players do not have any pride announce retirement unless they get kick in their butt.

 

[Madplayer]

Nice to see Umar Akmal in the XI [emoji51]

is he?

 

[saiyan0312]

Nice to see Umar Akmal in the XI [emoji51]

he is not.

 

[Haz95]

Lol it was sarcasm.

 

[uberkoen]

We're getting hammered. Our bowling attack is worse than Bangladesh.

I wish I could go back to the 90's.

 

[Shafi]

Lolly pop bowling!!!!

 

[hussain.r97]

I don't understand the point of 2 spinners on such a flat track! especially Rehman, there is no logic in him playing. Talha should've played. Right now we have 2 left arm seamers, Talha would've added variety and would've been more useful than Rehman. Why are we playing so defensive?

 

[Haz95]

Ajmal is useless vs SL, Junaids averageness is creeping in, rehman- no argument needed and Wahab has the brain of a 3 year old on crack

 

[Shafi]

Mashrafee, Taskin are far better than our Junaid, Talha and Wahab.

 

[hussain.r97]

Rehman bowling way too full

 

[JibranAnsari]

pakistan should not have played ajmal ..he might have to bowl 50 plus overs this innings and there is every chance that he might bowl a few beyond limit deliveries.

 

[JibranAnsari]

before bashing our bowling remember this is SSC , the graveyard of bowlers.

 

[hur rizvi]

Cant watch this Borefest, Go to hell both sides

 

[Haz95]

Cant watch this Borefest, Go to hell both sides

Case closed. I really hate Pak vs SL tests. Absolutely borefests

 

[Electron]

I am beginning to have this weird feeling that Pakistan batting > Pakistan bowling.

 

[thivaakar]

Pakistan commentator thinks "Chanaka Asanga Welegedara" is long and it is the full name of Chanaka Welegedara. BTW his full name is Uda Walawwe Mahim Bandaralage Chanaka Asanga Welegedara

 

[Electron]

Case closed. I really hate Pak vs SL tests. Absolutely borefests

True. Dullest series.

 

[Shafi]

before bashing our bowling remember this is SSC , the graveyard of bowlers.

How about Steyn bowling? Sri Lanka would have loose 2 wickets by now!!

 

[Haz95]

Great news, there's turn. Watch Herath take a 20fer against us

 

[UpInTheAir]

What did chishti say?

Sent

 

[Haz95]

I am beginning to have this weird feeling that Pakistan batting > Pakistan bowling.

Uno its bad when its indian bowling>pak bowling and Indian tailenders>pak top order

 

[Electron]

Uno its bad when its indian bowling>pak bowling and Indian tailenders>pak top order

Tbh, Indian tailenders > Indian top order as well.

 

[Mr Consistent]

stump chance missed

 

[JibranAnsari]

How about Steyn bowling? Sri Lanka would have loose 2 wickets by now!!

There is only one steyn in this world!

 

[thivaakar]

Tharanga, if you are to get out, please edge as usual and I'll make $75 if you do and if you don't I'll lose $5.

 

[Mr Consistent]

uff chisti mujiad )

 

[Shafi]

Miss stumping!!! What is Moin doing? Watching views and shopping?

 

[uberkoen]

I am beginning to have this weird feeling that Pakistan batting > Pakistan bowling.

No, Pakistan Batting = Pakistan Bowling = Absolutely sh*t

 

[JibranAnsari]

Sarfaraz hit on the face , hope he is alright.

 

[Haz95]

Tbh, Indian tailenders > Indian top order as well.

Ashwin is better than Rohit and Dhawan for sure and am being dead serious

 

[Wristy_Shuffler]

Ouch. Hope he's okay. That took off from nowhere.

 

[saiyan0312]

Sarfraz injured.

 

[uberkoen]

Why do people keep laughing at Chisti? What is he saying?

 

[thivaakar]

Safras misses stumping and the ball pelts him in his face

 

[JibranAnsari]

chishti adding more boredom to the series, as if there was a room.

 

[hussain.r97]

Ouch! Hope he's ok, awkward bounce there...

 

[blackanhyellow]

Sarfraz wasnt to blame for that. no one would have expected that much bounce.

 

[vandokkum]

If the prince of edges Tharanga makes a 100 then Pakistan should just forfeit this match.

 

[thivaakar]

I see blood on Sarfraz's ear

 

[cricket083]

What was the pitch report?I missed it.

It seems flat.

 

[Electron]

Ashwin is better than Rohit and Dhawan for sure and am being dead serious

I agree 100%. I have been saying this for ages, even before the 1st England Test.

 

[blackanhyellow]

so was that the teesra? lol

 

[Shafi]

There is only one steyn in this world!

How about fit Zaheer Khan, Southee, Anderson , Johnson, Malinga?

 

[Haz95]

I agree 100%. I have been saying this for ages, even before the 1st England Test.

Lol tough state for both of us

 

[Wristy_Shuffler]

Sarfraz wasnt to blame for that. no one would have expected that much bounce.

Yeh man. No way he could have taken that. Just abouts managed to turn his head. Looks bad though. Might have to go off.

 

[uberkoen]

so was that the teesra? lol

Only a topspin. Not a teesra.

 

[thivaakar]

Probably another 60 ish for Silva

 

[Fastandfurious]

Rubbish batting by SL. Going at 2.6 on the flattest track in the world. Obviously looking to draw the match unless Pakistan continue their usual practice of collapsing all of a sudden.

 

[Firebreaker]

All the ******** players make to this team

 

[blackanhyellow]

Only a topspin. Not a teesra.

yeah I know, but isnt that what the teesra is a topspinner with extra bounce? or is the teesra a doosra with extra bounce?, I have no idea lol. I doubt even ajmal knows.

 

[Haz95]

All you need is money to get into Pak domestic. No wonder why Talha is the next big thing

 

[saiyan0312]

Spinners on this track are there to make the overs. its the fast bowlers that give hope on SSC.

 

[uberkoen]

yeah I know, but isnt that what the teesra is a topspinner with extra bounce? or is the teesra a doosra with extra bounce?, I have no idea lol. I doubt even ajmal knows.

A teesra is a doosra with a hint of the pehla and a bit of bounce.

 

[hussain.r97]

yeah I know, but isnt that what the teesra is a topspinner with extra bounce? or is the teesra a doosra with extra bounce?, I have no idea lol. I doubt even ajmal knows.

Teesra is doosra with extra bounce, topspinner is Pehla with extra bounce...

 

[blackanhyellow]

pitches like these are why people think tests are boring. Will be an absolute pancake soon.

 

[hussain.r97]

pitches like these are why people think tests are boring. Will be an absolute pancake soon.

Exactly! When the pitch is good, Test cricket is the most interesting format!

 

[uberkoen]

pitches like these are why people think tests are boring. Will be an absolute pancake soon.

Bring on the maple syrup!!!

 

[blackanhyellow]

Teesra is doosra with extra bounce, topspinner is Pehla with extra bounce...

so the next logical variation is the chowtha, which is a teesra with low bounce. Oh wait then thats a doosra again. Jeez ajmal and his mind games.
