[aloo paratha]

Younis match saving century?

 

[MarkCooper]

This is such a shame. This series was yours for the taking.

 

[Man Of Steel]

I just went to the market for some chores and to my surprise Shezzy boy gone, really gutted and disappointed in Shehzad not doing justice to his talent that being sad AA gone what a pure hack, its probably for the better.

 

[aloo paratha]

We will end the day on 150/10 I guess.

lol maybe. Hope not.

 

[D/DAhmed]

Masood Bradman is gonna get out any second now

 

[saeedhk]

Gone!

Hahaha man of steel implying that shehzad is better than azhar. I wonder if anyone listens to this guy. Hes more full of it than ramiz raja.

 

[Fineline]

Why do we keep gifting our wickets to this Prasad guy?He doesn't even have to do anything.

 

[saeedhk]

Pakistan may talent bohat hai.

Ramiz might cry at sometime.Controlling his feelings well.Poor guy!

 

[Fineline]

lol maybe. Hope not.

Yup but Pak always do the opposite.I have stopped hoping.

 

[aloo paratha]

Ramiz might cry at sometime.Controlling his feelings well.Poor guy!

Lol, I always think how he manages not to rip his hair out when he's the only Pakistani getting humiliated in the comm box.

 

[Man Of Steel]

Masood is just a terrible left hander, simply awful!

 

[D/DAhmed]

Azhar the hack and Shehzad the talent...

I guess we have a relative of Shezzy here

Man you have some real troll skills.

 

[aloo paratha]

... Did I really just read that Azhar is a hack but Shezzy is talented... Well after all he does have more talent than Tendulkar right?

 

[Fineline]

Lol, I always think how he manages not to rip his hair out when he's the only Pakistani getting humiliated in the comm box.

Hahahaha!I can understand the guy's feelings.Can't blame him here.

 

[Man Of Steel]

How the hell did a terrible batsman like Masood merit his selection in the squad let alone playing 11. Even Khurram Manzoor was a better opener than this hack.

 

[Fineline]

Glanced fine and a welcome boundary.

 

[walashi]

 

[aloo paratha]

How did Misbah manage to strain his groin? Did he accidentally do the splits or something?

No idea

Actually Shehzad is a proved hack.

 

[Fineline]

Yeah!Don't know.

 

[Man Of Steel]

I doubt YK will last 20 balls, looks all out of shape.

 

[D/DAhmed]

Shehzad-esque shots from Shame Masood

 

[Man Of Steel]

Actually Shehzad is a proved hack.

Shehzzy boy is a much better player than Masood, Fact.

 

[Square Drive]

Control bhai control Sill there is much to watch

Brother this is extremely depressing. Never knew we'd do this bad.

 

[Fineline]

Mamoon was always right about Shehzad.He should have been kicked out long ago.

 

[angrypathan]

Younis continuing to troll

 

[Fineline]

Shehzzy boy is a much better player than Masood, Fact.

Better than Only Masood Maybe.I even consider Farhat miles better than him.

 

[cricketpatzer]

After they won the first test by 10 wickets, I thought Pakistan would easily win the series. They still might, but a great comeback by a young Sri Lankan team. Among the cricketing powers, Sri Lankan has the smallest population (only about 20 million). They certainly stand up to their larger neighbors.

 

[D/DAhmed]

Masood can't play on offside or onside...

 

[Fineline]

Younis intending some good runs here.He certainly won't leave early this time around I reckon.

 

[Man Of Steel]

Of all Pakistani commentators, This Sikhandar guy seems to have a grip on English plus his accent is refreshing to listen to, much much better than Bazid and Rameez who are just annoying to hear.

 

[taqi]

YK ka dushman Mathews

 

[#GreenRoars]

Brother this is extremely depressing. Never knew we'd do this bad.

It was always expected. Our team rely on One man show, no team efforts honestly.

 

[Man Of Steel]

P.S: He is very professional and doesn't indulge in foolish things that are off topic like RA and Ramiz.

 

[Fineline]

How did Mathews(a medium trundler)get Younis Khan(Legend) out caught behind in the previous innings?

 

[taqi]

need to score runs tuk tuk will not help atleast attack mathews

 

[Fineline]

Mathews always gets his first over maiden against Pak no matter who the batsman is.

 

[Man Of Steel]

200/2 at the end of the day will be nice.

 

[Man Of Steel]

You can sense a runout when YK is in the middle.

 

[Fineline]

200/2 at the end of the day will be nice.

I won't even fancy such score in my dreams.Even in my dreams,Its impossible.

 

[desi_launda]

Run rate 1.84

 

[Bullet Drive]

Shaan will struggle vs off spinner I think.

 

[LegbreakGoogly]

Pitch has flattened a bit and the ball is not doing anything scary so if we can bat sensibly there might be a chance but but you can't expect Pakistan's batsman to do it.

 

[Man Of Steel]

Good to see YK has finally changed his helmet, this one looks much better than the old weary one.

 

[Bullet Drive]

YK looking lot better today then he has done.

 

[Bullet Drive]

If we can get to 200-2. Will be v interesting tomorrow.

 

[D/DAhmed]

Kaushal in.

Time for Shan to say his goodbyes (hopefully once and for all)

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Knew this spinner would be a nightmare for shan masood

 

[Bullet Drive]

Inside edge!!!!

Phew......

 

[D/DAhmed]

That looks plumb

EDIT: Oh come on...

 

[Fineline]

Shan survives.Due to the involvement of a little bat otherwise he was plumb.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hope SL lose all reviews and then every decision goes against them.... they have had luck on sides.....

 

[Fineline]

If we can get to 200-2. Will be v interesting tomorrow.

I don't think Shan would be able to survive for that long.

 

[Man Of Steel]

Shan won't survive long against kaushal i reckon.

 

[angrypathan]

lol poor running

 

[desi_launda]

Run rate 1.83 on flat track..wicket coming soon

 

[Bullet Drive]

YK playing some smashing drives right now.

 

[#GreenRoars]

How did Mathews(a medium trundler)get Younis Khan(Legend) out caught behind in the previous innings?

If Younis khan can get Dilshan, Samaraweera, Great Hashim Amla, then why an all rounder Mathews can't get him? What's the problem or shame in this?

 

[Bullet Drive]

We could do with a triple from YK

 

[Man Of Steel]

Only God can save Masood vs the off spinner, still can't get over the fact hth he got selected?

 

[Bullet Drive]

Most fluent YK has looked in some time.

I sense a ton........

 

[#GreenRoars]

IA. Nazzar na laggay

 

[Bullet Drive]

Just do dua we can get to end of today with only 2 wickets down. Then tomorrow re-*****.

 

[Man Of Steel]

2 RPO

 

[Pete Rose]

Yk is looking good for a big score.

 

[Pete Rose]

Key concern is Shan against the off spinner.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Best chance Shaan will ever get. Batting with YK is the easiest for any youngster. Should take this chance, get a big ton.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Key concern is Shan against the off spinner.

Agree. Has looked decent vs pace par a few balls. Spin is biggest test. Kaushal is a quality off spinner.

 

[ahanank]

How did Misbah manage to strain his groin? Did he accidentally do the splits or something?

I remember the commentator mentioning yesterday when Misbah was trying to pick and throw while fielding. This is what he said: "At this age, I bet that'll test his groin"
And so it did, I guess.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Still I cannot forget Shaan Masoods beautiful six to Mark Craig in UAE.

 

[Fineline]

If Younis khan can get Dilshan, Samaraweera, Great Hashim Amla, then why an all rounder Mathews can't get him? What's the problem or shame in this?

When did I say its a shame?I was just astonished to see YK who normally manages fast bowlers pretty well getting out in that fashion.Mathews usually doesn't bowl that line too.

 

[Bullet Drive]

31-2. Come on lads. No more wickets today

 

[Man Of Steel]

Most fluent YK has looked in some time.

I sense a ton........

The most fluent I saw him in this series was in second innings in previous Test when he came out to bat before the end of Day 4 and scored 20 odd with some aggressive strokes only to mess it up next morning and get out for 40.

 

[Bullet Drive]

beautiful beautiful shot. Good batting by Shaan. Trust me, if he has a positive attitude he's a very good batsman.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Woah lots of turn.

17* come on Shaan!!!

 

[Pete Rose]

Shot. He seems a little more assured than I thought. And then the outside edge beaten
