Game Over Guys

 

[cricketerB94]

********* by Asad? :13

 

[ExplicitAI]

Shafiq you crazy fool

 

[Mr Consistent]

asad

 

[uberkoen]

He was coming down on all deliveries that Hearth was tossing up. This was going to happen eventually.

 

[MeanAndGreen]

Seriously? Herath again.

 

[Sam18696]

If Junaid isn't playing, then we are 105/7

 

[world cup captain]

Rehman has to do something with the bat or else his free tickets are over.

 

[MeanAndGreen]

Why does Shafiq get to 30 and then get out. Its so frustrating. The guy obviously has potential but he just can't convert.

 

[Mr Consistent]

4th wicket fpr herath

 

[uberkoen]

Sarfraz needs a 150 here

 

[JibranAnsari]

Damn and I thought umar akmal throws away his wicket.

 

[MeanAndGreen]

Up to Sarfraz and Rehman to hack a 70-80 run partnership, then Wahab and Sarfraz to frustrate Sri Lanka with a 40-run partnership. After that, who knows?

 

[MeanAndGreen]

Rehman won't last until the end of the day.

 

[world cup captain]

Stayed up all night just to watch shafiq give his wicket to Srilanka. Well I will sleep now and see what happens later.

 

[Bullet Drive]

166 to win

 

[Bullet Drive]

Shafiq should be dropped.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Damn and I thought umar akmal throws away his wicket.

Cant really blame Asad here, if you play from crease even a couple of balls, you will get out to Herath on this pitch. He was doing the right thing unfortunate that he missed one.

 

[steelo green]

Asad, Khurrum and Azhar, great career guys, now stay in Pakistan and never return.

 

[Kiri]

Pakistan need a new batting coach. - maybe get some ATG batsman to do it.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Yah for a limitedbplayer like asad it was the right thing tondo but a batsman who has good defence can defend such stuff.

 

[Fastandfurious]

Pakistan need a new batting coach.

We just got one.

 

[ammar93]

Pakistan need a new batting coach.

They also need some new batsmen haha.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Shafiq gone

 

[steelo green]

Sarfraz is our only batsmen I guess?

 

[ExplicitAI]

Meanwhile Anderson gets Vijay's wicket!

 

[Seen Sheen]

Misbah has good defense, what happened to him in both innings when he played from crease!
If you fire with a round arm and still get it to spin miles then good luck playing from crease even if you are one of the best players of spin.

 

[Sam18696]

Please tell me Herath isn't playing in ODIs

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Misbah should take Shafiq, Azhar and Rehman along with him when he is axed from the Team

 

[Kiri]

Can SL finish the game today? Junaid will not come out.

 

[Sam18696]

Pakistan need a new batting coach. - maybe get some ATG batsman to do it.

It's not the batting coach. It's the batsmen

 

[ammar93]

Misbah should take Shafiq, Azhar and Rehman along with him when he is axed from the Team

What about Khurram and Azhar?

 

[Fastandfurious]

Rehman to win the test for us.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rehman survives LBW.

 

[farazaidi]

Shafiq should see the video of Sarfraz's hundred on how to play Herath/Perera. You dont have to sprint down the wicket every goddamn ball !

Once again Sarfraz fighting a lone battle

 

[Bullet Drive]

Get rid of Misbah, Khurram, Rehman, Shafiq.

[Sam18696]

Sarfraz should keep the strike as much as he can. Deny the singles unless Rehman has to face 1 to 2 balls.

So there will be more overs?

 

[saiyan0312]

Can sarfraz score another fifty here

 

[Bullet Drive]

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rehman LBW..

 

[Seen Sheen]

Once again Sarfraz fighting a lone battle

Sarfaraz also adopts this approach, cant blame Shafiq too much. You are not sure to survive even one ball on this pitch if you play from crease.

[Bullet Drive]

Perera gets Rehman 7 down.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Meanwhile Gambhir gets run out!

[Mr Consistent]

rehman

7th down

 

[Zeshan547]

i just feel for sarfraz, he is the new version of misbah "the lone warrior" but sarfraz is a better and more aggressive version of misbah, but for the love of God he will still end up on losing side.

 

[farazaidi]

Rehman you good for nothing ****-hole

 

[saiyan0312]

rehman vant bowl and cant bat., Pathetic and hopefully an end here.

 

[Aman]

LMAO epic sig [MENTION=134867]Kiri[/MENTION]

 

[steelo green]

Pretty sad I have more confidence in Wahab than pretty much anyone except Sarfraz obviously, and Shehzad and Younis

 

[ExplicitAI]

At least Wahab is a better batsman than Talha

 

[Bullet Drive]

35* to Sarfaraz

 

[shahidrazzaq]

That extra wicket Juni provides is needed

 

[Bullet Drive]

Shehzad, Azhar, Haris, YK, Fawad, U.Akmal, Sarfaraz, Wahab, Babar, Ajmal & Junaid.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Misbah has good defense, what happened to him in both innings when he played from crease!
If you fire with a round arm and still get it to spin miles then good luck playing from crease even if you are one of the best players of spin.

and sarfraz is playing him well? Misbah seems out of touch for once and younis and misbah have slow reflexes now.

You just dont gift away your wicket like asad did.

 

[Aman]

Shehzad is no good Mr. 95%.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Who is the best left arm spinner in the history of Pak cricket?

 

[Fastandfurious]

Congrats [MENTION=134867]Kiri[/MENTION].

 

[saiyan0312]

Cmon sarfraz. Score your fifty.

 

[Bullet Drive]

123-7

 

[Bullet Drive]

2-0 loss........ but its OK, the team is well gelled and free from controversy

 

[farazaidi]

rehman vant bowl and cant bat., Pathetic and hopefully an end here.

cant field either. That sucker dropped Sanga on 100 who went on to score a double, and that was the simplest of chances

 

[Bullet Drive]

Sarfaraz possibly out..

 

[Fastandfurious]

Some changes have to be made. Otherwise PP should boycott Pak Cricket until then.

 

[Bullet Drive]

No...

stumps.

 

[Bullet Drive]

That is stumps.

 

[Fastandfurious]

We need a overhaul. Enough of being mediocre with Misbah.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Wahab Riaz is playing better than Misbah

 

[Bullet Drive]

SRL day.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Congratulations. Pakistan batted for 1.25 sessions and lost 7 players... in the process.

 

[Seen Sheen]

and sarfraz is playing him well? Misbah seems out of touch for once and younis and misbah have slow reflexes now.

You just dont gift away your wicket like asad did.

Sarfraz gets down the pitch on almost every other ball as well and thats why he's surviving. You absolutely have no hope if you try to play a few deliveries consecutively from crease. I would say Younus gifted his wicket by playing an ordinary sweep shot.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Congratulations. Pakistan batted for 1.25 sessions and lost 7 players... in the process.

under your fav Misbah....

 

[saiyan0312]

Stumps. We made it to the fifth day atleast.

 

[Bullet Drive]

We should drop Younis Khan also.

 

[Mr Consistent]

pak 127/7 Stumps - Day 4
