What's new

The one loss you'll never get over?

Bit bizzare but i have not gotten over Douglas Marilier (father of the ramp shot) playing the most bizzare cameo ever to beat us.

All these years of watching cricket, that remains the most bizzare and unbelievable cameo ever.
 
God I shudder to think what the reaction would've been had this Test taken place today. What a meltdown and in the series decider !

At a similar time, there was another Test in Australia- PAK declared for 570+..... and then lost the Test in 5th afternoon. In that same series, 3rd Test at SCG 4th innings target was 180..... a series that should have won 2-1 or at least drawn 1-1, ended up 0-3. And GS Chappell took his only Test 5for in that game.
 
Bangladeshi loss against Afghans in home Test was hard to swallow. I couldn't believe they lost that game.
 
Misbah gets unnecessary slack for Mohali. He scored 56 of 76. Let’s say he scored 80 of 76 Pakistan were still going to be short by 24 runs.

Misbah’s innings was a poor one no doubt . But other batsman were equally to blame .

Younis khan scored 12 of 32.
Hafeez played a dumb shot
Afridi got out to a full toss
Akmal misread a spinner
Razzaq did not read a slower ball

Plus 5 dropped catches .

Misbah was also responsible but so were all the others .

when the match was lost he struck a few blows at the end to get it to 56 otherwise he was 30-35 of 60-65.

he also dropped a sitter.
 
World t20 2007 :(

Still hurts, but recently when i saw Iftikhar hit it straight, that convinced that had Misbah hit it straight aswell, it could had still been out. Cause like Misbah, Iftikhar was batting well and seemed as if nothing could get him out, yet he still got out
 
Mohali - the highs of the Wahab wicket of Yuvraj followed by the lowest of lows.

Sydney test - the fact that the architect of that defeat is still around rubbing salt into our wounds with his statements is infuriating.

99 WC Final - That was our cup. As a youngster I was convinced we were going to win. We had the best team and the most flair.

oh yes sydney test. And the guy sits on TV to bash other players.

I believe it was the Sydney Test that caused the downfall of our cricket. Because it was after this test everyone started to suspect that these guys might be involved in foul play. When in 2010 the four guys were named, alot of us were like WE KNEW IT, because it proved what alot of us had been assuming.

I blame Mohali on Umar Akmal, Afridi and Razzaq
 
Im not trolling, but there was a Hong Kong Cricket sixes final we lost where Imran Nazir bowled terrible deliveries and wides and lost us a confirm win.
