[insaftak]

MOYO looks good

 

[Momo]

are you sure we are watching the same match?

It was in the covers region.

 

[ItsMeK1]

[Momo]

MY's attrocious running habits haven't changed.

 

[lalaji]

3 more for MOYO

 

[CricnPak]

Runs coming in a breeze now.

 

[ItsMeK1]

are you sure we are watching the same match?

Honest mistake ............. God I should have slept in night

 

[Momo]

MY gets a three on a chur (edge).

 

[insaftak]

MY's attrocious running habits haven't changed.

i don't mind it, it seems nothing has changed, he looks good, i'm loving it

 

[lalaji]

i don't mind it, it seems nothing has changed, he looks good, i'm loving it

i agree.....

btw just a few mins ago Waq was all over the moon for MOYO running..lol

 

[Momo]

i don't mind it, it seems nothing has changed, he looks good, i'm loving it

For some unknown reason, the of two them don't trouble each other much. But with other partners, both are an absolute nightmare to run between the wickets with.

 

[lalaji]

There is MOYO and then there is everyone else....

 

[insaftak]

that was a good delivery

 

[JeeraBlade]

Why is YK getting restless?

 

[Momo]

The balls YK is leaving are getting too close to the off stump for comfort.

 

[Zeenix]

4 to moyo

 

[Momo]

Mathews comes in to bowl.

 

[ItsMeK1]

Nice punch shot of backfoot by MoYo for four

 

[lalaji]

what a shot by MOY

 

[JeeraBlade]

brilliant 444444444 by MOYO

 

[insaftak]

moyo is so good, that was piece of cake for him 444444444444444

 

[Momo]

What a shot by MY.

 

[iafzal]

Surprised to see Miandad and Shoaib Mohamad to be @ 6aal time with the highest avg per partnership of 91 runs/innings

 

[ItsMeK1]

Mathews comes in to bowl.

And welcome by a lovely shot for Four by MoYo

 

[Zeenix]

Backfoot punch by Moyo for a single..

 

[insaftak]

YK struggling out there

 

[Momo]

The have started the *suspicious* running already.

Get an overthrow.

 

[ItsMeK1]

Younis gone

 

[iZeeshan]

Eh oh.

 

[insaftak]

YK gone, he looked horrible all day

 

[Khabri420]

YK gone!

 

[Momo]

Gone.

 

[Khabri420]

YK wasn't looking comfortable at all

 

[Momo]

Why would somebody try to deflect the ball with slips in place?

 

[Momo]

80/4
Here we go again

 

[JeeraBlade]

Why is YK getting restless?

Ok. now I know why.

 

[Momo]

They have withheld the Moon and sent Misbah.

 

[Khabri420]

Why would somebody try to deflect the ball with slips in place?

Good question. I also have one:

Why would someone not know where their off stump is?

 

[iZeeshan]

Why Misbah!?

You send your batsmen in order of greatness. Akmal should have been next.

 

[Khabri420]

Why Misbah!?

You send your batsmen in order of greatness. Akmal should have been next.

Exactly, hence Rauf was sent at #4

 

[iZeeshan]

Exactly, hence Rauf was sent at #4

Nightwatchmen are exceptions :younis

 

[Momo]

We will miss Razzaq at #8 today

 

[Khabri420]

Nightwatchmen are exceptions :younis

Well the technique Rauf has shown, he looked more comfortable out there than YK

 

[JeeraBlade]

with score at 80/4, whoever thought 292 was a low score, please raise their hand.

 

[Momo]

How did that not hit the bail?

MY lucky!

 

[iZeeshan]

We have these two left, and Malik, and Akmal.

If they can't combine for another 250 runs, that's pretty sad.

 

[JeeraBlade]

We will miss Razzaq at #8 today

No, we'll miss;
1) Winning the toss and batting.
2) A good keeper who can hold some catches.

 

[Momo]

We have these two left, and Malik, and Akmal.

If they can't combine for another 250 runs, that's pretty sad.

They need to combine for 350.

We can't afford to be chasing a biggish total in the last innings.

 

[MIG]

What I would like to miss are whining Pakistani fans.

People seem to think that Sri Lankans will rollover and die on their own home grounds!

A lot of cricket to be played in this series.

moyo is a class
