44.3 Kumble to Youhana, no run, looks to sweep, hit his pads, going way down the leg, half hearted over optimistic appeal!
 
for me kamal is already the best Pak batsmen of the test series..
Although he might not end up as the top scorer...
But he has and will play crucial knocks..
 
@pakmanndanish u shouldnt lose hope so quickly we have had setbacks bu these two are going nicely and we always have razz and akmal still in the dressing room it aint over yet by a longshot imo
 
2 more overs before lunch
tell me something, if we can ONLY lose, theny the hell are they still playing?



we can win

WE CANNOT WIN(!)
WE ONLY CAN LOSE(!)


agreed is these batsman start playing for a win- we will surely loose- they just need to get into razzaq mode and survive as long as possible- only 63 overs left- they can do it.
 
sorry :)
oh u mean akmal this little fellow who scored how many runs in the 1st innings under pressure, and now under huge(!) pressure.. he will definetely score a triple century -> NO WAY(!)
hopefully this both can survive till the middle of postlunch session..
 
Pakistan require another 257 runs with 6 wickets remaining
Required run rate - 4.08

a victory would be possible only if these two players can survive til the middle of post lunch session
the run rate can climb up til tea to 5-6 runs per over and still there would be hope
the problem is only theseboth WONT survive
 
47.5 Balaji to Youhana, FOUR!!, turned it to fine leg, Sachin dives but he could not cut that one off
 
i dont think the run rate will be as much a prob its just wickets we have men who can slog when required so that isnt a prob just survive and we have a chance
 
48.5 Harbhajan to Asim, FOUR!!, short and punished by Kamal, rocks on the backfoot and cuts that to deep backward point
 
1 more over till lunch id guess just play it out and we are in a much better position than it looked like we would become in
 
i donno why the last over of play before lunch is so amplified to a wicket tho why is that are the batsmen in a hurry to eat or something?
 
49.5 Kumble to Youhana, no run, on target, Youhana inexplicably leaves it alone, ball hits his pads and rolls over and was very close to hitting the stumps, lucky for Youhana
 
india win the session

but batting will be easier now
so we can draw it still
 
If u look at dravids innings there was not one ball that he padded upto.
This Series Kumble has 3-4 times of Inzy's wicket.
 
Pak can still win this if this pair survives 248 runs req'd and a min of 60 overs remaining (4.1333.. rr req'd) it isnt the worst case scenario

actually dravid padded quite a few balls of his 110 run innings when kaneria came around the wicket
Ard the wicket is different not much chance of LBW
 
yea i guess so badx kamal has so far batted pretty well and chancelessly while yoyo looks a lil edgier i pray for thse two to get tonnes today and i could die a happy man :D
 
pakistand shud think of it like that

just 360 balls
may sound like a lot

but they can bat out 360 balls if they put thier mind to it
 
The_Cricket_Devil said:
yes 60 + half hour of overs if a result is possible = rest of match

they dont get the extra 30 minutes on the last session of the last day do they. who decides if they get it or not
 
i think it is up to the umps to decide and usually happens if like 8 wickets are out or like 20-30 runs are needed to win
 
hmm
im kinda confused by that now.
i thought it only happened if there was anpother session to be bowled. so that the players wudnt have to come back on again

surprised its done at the end of 90 overs on the last day also.

chalo 66 overs then
thats 396 balls

commone pakistan
 
I will settle for Pakistanis to go for a draw if both of these guys get out before Pakistan gets 300-350 until then go for the win guyz
 
listen if these 2 get tonnes its game on

then itll leave around 90 and i think we cna scrape 90 from the tail
 
if not a ton if yoyo, kamal, razz and akmal can all get past half centuries we have a gr8 chance but maybe that is a bit too wishful
