Sri Lanka vs Pakistan | 3rd Test | Pallekele | 07/10/12 | Day 3

[Badsha]

Junaid back on. Looking good.

 

[Badsha]

Junaid in form.

 

[Badsha]

I can only imagine what terror Junaid will spread when he goes to England.

 

[Wristy_Shuffler]

Maiden from JK. Good short ball, Samara tried to come forward and got it in the ribs. Junaid seems pretty chalak for his age

 

[Xoib]

this session may have cost Pakistan the game.

 

[Wristy_Shuffler]

Younis Khan on

 

[Looney]

Another bowling all rounder we have then ?

 

[IAJ]

Lovely, younis averages in the 50s both with the bat and ball.

 

[Xoib]

Umer Gul has been awful he should have been leading the charge on this track he deserves to be dropped if he does not perform on this track

 

[Wristy_Shuffler]

Inside edge on to the back leg of Samara, that was sooo close. 137-3

 

[Xoib]

series winning partnership this.

 

[imshally81]

M Hafeez is better option then Younus

 

[waqar goraya]

Match is surely sliding towards Srilankans....i do not see pakistan picking up 7 wickets untill new ball is taken..by then Srilankans will be quite a few runs ahead....we needed to dismiss them under 260 to give ourselves a chance......
ball is still swinging but our bowlers have not used it well..

 

[imshally81]

Partnership 98(176)

 

[Xoib]

great session for lankans probably won them the series.

 

[Wristy_Shuffler]

142-3. Lunch. Parana gets one of the worst 50's ever, Faisal Iqbal looking on in approval.

 

[Xoib]

142-3. Lunch. Parana gets one of the worst 50's ever, Faisal Iqbal looking on in approval.

not sure about that there was bound to be some play and missing in these conditions the length by Pakistani seamers was awful there was not enough pitched up deliveries.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Good day so far for Lankans. Parana and Samara showing some heart.

 

[Bullet Drive]

A lot of work ahead for Pakistan. #SLvsPak

 

[Bullet Drive]

Junaid on #SLvsPak

 

[Bullet Drive]

Why has Hafeez not bowled?

 

[Bullet Drive]

 

[Bullet Drive]

49 for Samaraweera #SLvsPak

 

[Bullet Drive]

Excellent bowling by Junaid.§

 

[Bullet Drive]

Very short this time. No bounce.

 

[Bullet Drive]

leg stump half volley

 

[Bullet Drive]

Gul with a horrible ball.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Dropped catch

 

[Xoib]

SL on the way to a resounding win.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Younis drops an absolute sitter

 

[Wristy_Shuffler]

Oh maaaan. Younus!!!!!??

 

[Wristy_Shuffler]

That could be the game

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good comeback by Gul. Younis horrible!

 

[Bullet Drive]

For a chance to win we need them all out today. Its as simple as that.

 

[imshally81]

Dropped !!!!!

 

[Xoib]

time for Younis to hang his boots.

 

[Down2Earth]

gul had pranavitana LBW yesterday...

 

[Bullet Drive]

I think it may be reversing now.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ball is reversing definitely

 

[Xoib]

worst bowling effort from Pakistan in a long time. Helpful pitch opposition on the mat and they serve up filth and not to mention the fielding.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Beauty

 

[Bullet Drive]

Lovely ball again.

 

[Bullet Drive]

50 up. Gul is annoying.

 

[Bullet Drive]

What a ball

 

[imshally81]

Pakistani bowlers are very unlucky today

 

[Bullet Drive]

Junaid bowling so so well.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez to Para's would be better.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hafeez must come on and bowl to Para!

 

[Looney]

Have Sami and Ajmal bowl ...

 

[Looney]

Hafeez must come on and bowl to Para!

He has not bowled at all , I hope he is fit

 

[Bullet Drive]

Gul with a good comeback there

 

[Bullet Drive]

Waqar talking and saying Talha should be with the squad.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hows Ajmal bowled today..

 

[Bullet Drive]

Give Junaid a rest. Take Gul off. Bowl Ajmal & Hafeez.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rehman is being missed..

 

[Badsha]

Ajmal hasn't bowled that well. At least wasn't till lunch.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rambo & Chsthi.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Come on Gul

 

[Bullet Drive]

Aggression from Gul

 

[Bullet Drive]

Sami on

 

[Bullet Drive]

128 kph from Sami

 

[QazzarFan]

time for Younus Khan to retire.

SL has some of the worst commentators ...zzZZZ

 

[Bullet Drive]

Sami bowling nothing.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Gul bowling wide

 

[Xoib]

Pakistan pace attack shown up big time on a helpful track. South Africa tour will be another long one.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Take Gul off. Take Sami off. Bowl Ajmal & Hafeez.

 

[Ryankhan]

Why has hafeez not bowled??? is there a grudge between misbah and hafeez???
as hafeez is damn good against lefties and he always get them and yet he hasnt bowled a single over yet?? this is frustrating and bad captaincy

 

[Bullet Drive]

Gul shouldn't bowl!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Bad captaincy for sure. Hafeez hasn't bowled 1 over.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Misbah keeps Gul on.....

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Not playing Rehman going to hunt misbah big time, he was ur inform bowler,
playing sami was but shud have played instead of gul. lets see wat happens pak team
r ful of surprises, we'll either lose this test or win it.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Poor from Misbah! He is not using his bowling options well.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Now come on and bloody bowl spin!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Sami continues.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Is Misbah bloody blind? He's been bowling pace for about an hour now. No spin.

 

[Love Pakistan]

Wow what a load of garbage! Younis has bowled 3 overs and Hafeez is yet to bowl one! Useless cricket being played by Pakistan!

 

[Bullet Drive]

I'm turning this off if Misbah bowls Gul again.

 

[Bullet Drive]

We have one blind captain.
