What's the record for most wickets taken in a three test series?

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to wrap this up quickly

What's the record for most wickets taken in a three test series?

Cant recall correctly who holds it.

But i remember harbhajan almost murdered aussies in 2001 i think when he took 30+ wickets against them.

Talking about legal wickets.

 

[Thivagar]

LOL at the police officers. The cameraman can't seem to find any audience in the crowd so he starts recording the cops.

 

[Justcrazy]

Rahat to start the proceedings

 

[#GreenRoars]

who will bowl from the other end? i wish Yasir

 

[walashi]

Why is the crowd so empty

 

[Madplayer]

Talking about legal wickets.

Cant seem to remember then.

 

[Madplayer]

Why is the crowd so empty

Because its srilanka

 

[walashi]

review time

 

[angrypathan]

unlucky there with the review

 

[Thivagar]

I thought we were supposed to get live audio of 3rd umpire communicating with the on-field umpire ?

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need wickets .

 

[Madplayer]

Paul reiffel has made it a rule of his life that he wont give any decisions ,especially but not limited to marginal ones, in favour of Pakistan.

 

[angrypathan]

 

[Kianig89]

Sailing smoothly SL

 

[walashi]

 

[Madplayer]

Good bowling by rahat. For once someone is swinging the ball.

 

[Zeshan547]

Another marginal decision went against pak, have we found our new darrel hair, it seems so that paul raeffel is the man.

 

[Kianig89]

The likely heir of Steve Davis Mr. Reiffel

 

[Madplayer]

: by rahat

 

[Kianig89]

gets him :billyd

 

[Justcrazy]

Rahat Ali gets a wicket

 

[Kianig89]

[angrypathan]

The likely heir of Steve Davis Mr. Reiffel

Noone can be the heir to King Davis

 

[Madplayer]

Yasir into the attack. Can he get a 5th one?

 

[Kianig89]

Shabba Boys

 

[angrypathan]

giving Messi the chance to get a 5fer

 

[Kianig89]

Messi in

 

[Madplayer]

fixed

Thanks man

 

[Kianig89]

Misbah said enough with Imran's trundling

 

[Zeshan547]

Thank God that not out decision didn't cost us, and we don't have to review again this time.

 

[Kianig89]

Pradeep vs Messi

 

[Madplayer]

Out 5 wickets for yasir

 

[angrypathan]

5fer for Messi. Yasir for the Ballon d'Or

 

[Neferpitou]

Congrats Yasir. MashaAllah

 

[Kianig89]

review

[Madplayer]

Incredible stiff from yasir. Magical.

 

[Justcrazy]

5 fer for yasir

 

[umer187]

Oh yes! Yasir gets 5 again!!!

 

[Justcrazy]

Magical patch for Yasir.

 

[Kianig89]

Bamboozled is a small word :rondu

 

[MMHS]

What's the record for most wickets taken in a three test series?

Probably George Lohman - 36 (?) against SAF in 19th Century. In recent times, I think Hadlee & Qadir has 33 each in 80s.........

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Yasir becoming a beast bowler. Needs to be in ODI team.

 

[umer187]

Hopefully Shaan Masood can prove me wrong today!

 

[Mir jibran]

No chance for ajmal to return

 

[Kianig89]

Now is the time for Selfiezad and scholar Shan

 

[angrypathan]

Yasir becoming a beast bowler. Needs to be in ODI team.

He did play all 3 games against Zimbabwe I think, so he'll probably play in the upcoming series too

 

[Kianig89]

Shan's favorite scoring area and nudge on legside, edge b/w 1st and 2nd slip

 

[umer187]

Yasir becoming a beast bowler. Needs to be in ODI team.

I don't think he is that good in ODIs but coonfidence can wonders!

 

[Kianig89]

Shehzad needs to be patient while leaving the ba;ll

 

[Neferpitou]

Shan's favorite scoring area and nudge on legside, edge b/w 1st and 2nd slip

Incorrect, it's actually falls short of 3rd slip played with soft hands.

 

[Yatoo]

Misbah did well to let Yasir bowl.

 

[taqi]

Rahit did well he supported Yasir. Rest of the bowlers were toothless

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

I don't think he is that good in ODIs but coonfidence can wonders!

Thank you Haroon Rashid.

 

[cricfan967]

Has Rahat been able to hit 140s consistently?

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need a big total here.

 

[walashi]

Yasir Shah became the first Pakistani bowler to take three fifers in consecutive Tests in the last 10 years.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Has Rahat been able to hit 140s consistently?

No. 3 balls out of every over have been trash.

Our pacers are just horrible.

 

[angrypathan]

Has Rahat been able to hit 140s consistently?

Rahat wasn't even able to hit 130s consistently. Coming back from injury, his pace was down a bit.

 

[yasir]

Why Pakistan did not play Rahat in first two test? - Reason was injury?

Junaid was awful... Rahat was down in pace, but was swinging nicely.

Rabat can be a long term new ball bowler, but has to work on fundamentals, poor fitness, not an inspiring personality, does not even look like a bowler. When you have so much skill, why not work more simpler things? - He is wasting his talent

 

[Abdullah719]

Has Rahat been able to hit 140s consistently?

No. Just a couple here and there. Fastest was ~143 but generally low to mid 130s. Probably still feeling his way back from the injury.

 

[Justcrazy]

Shan masood gets another opportunity

 

[badsha001]

Shan Masood should order mattress as well for his body protection...

 

[GreenRage]

Though this shan masood is a horrible batsman but looks really good batting proper stance stands tall eyes on the ball.

 

[Asif321]

Shaan to score his first Ton

 

[Abdullah719]

No. 3 balls out of every over have been trash.

Our pacers are just horrible.

Are you Mamoon? Dude picks up 3-74 in his first innings back from a lengthy injury. Were you expecting a 10-fer? He did bowl some loose deliveries earlier on but improved as the innings went by. This myth about Rahat and bad balls is still a myth. Fast-bowlers will struggle when returning from an injury, specially when they are rushed back to intls. without any chance to gain rhythm in practice matches.

 

[Thivagar]

Tensports had managed to picked this up. This is what happens when you are unemployed and you have given up on life.

 

[Neferpitou]

[MENTION=137677]Thivagar[/MENTION] killing it in these match threads. ) )

 

[Asif321]

wow shaan .

 

[#GreenRoars]

lovely shot by Shan

 

[angrypathan]

Shaat yaar

Oh come on. I saw this guy at the last Test too. Are there no other interesting things to focus on? Russel starts rambling on about random stuff when he sees this guy every time.

He averages 36.

I have watched him since his debut. He used to offer 1 trash ball an over and now its 3.

Imran Khan and Adil are unable to pick up wickets. They barely manage to hit good lines.

Our pace attack is mega weak.
