Tour Game:Pakistan Vs Northamptonshire...Day 2 [Updates]

LOL Gangu reties hurt. Northants 4 down, 2 to each Nazir and Rao. 5 down actually cuz Gangu aint coming back after being hurt by Nazir.
 
Gangs is retired hurt.

Must have been hit by a fierce Rao bouncer. :91:
 
10 overs done, Northants 40/4 with 5 down. Lets bring on Niazi for a 5fer!!!!!!!!
 
I want Nazir to take couple of more wickets...I think he'd be a better choice than rao.
 
Looks like the boys have decided to bend their backs second time around. Obviously the weather being less "Sultry" could be a factor!
Anyway Rao may well have played himself in for OT - not a bad thing.
 
Why not Nazir, both of them have identical stats.

Usman looks dangerous as always.
 
Scrath my whole last post. Usman doesnt look dangerous as he is caught by Rao off Nazir. And their stats aren't identical as Nazir has 3 wickets. Jannisar on, looks like Nazir maybe making his debut. But I wanna see Niazi debut.
 
shahid nazir is on fire
yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

come on david sales!!!!!!!!!


Nazir has played 8 tests - 17 wkts @ around 33

& both combine to dismiss Afzaal!

At this stage Rao would be ahead because of his batting, experience and control. If however Nazir was to pick up a Michelle - very possible. Then who knows?
 
No fair for Niazi, he hasn't gotten to bowl. He would have gotten a hat trick if you ask me!
 
Maybe If he was opening the attack for Northampshire..... looking at the condition of our openers

meanwhile Yasir Arafat scores 67 runs in 75 balls and takes 5 wkts for 94 runs!! 2 of which were bowled, 2 of which were lbw and 1 caught!

Considering he had taken 2 for 80odd in 14 overs thats a fine come back. :14:

it don't matter that much about how many runs you give up it is about picking up wickets in test match
 
try bbc mate

Well look at the clock, its time for Pakistan to take a wicket!
 
Well Sales certainly enjoying his time at the crease. Niazi bowling really however...

imo if we get them out quickly that is not going to be good practice for our openers

You only need atleast 1 on the scoreboard to give the openers some batting practice.
 
No its not u.

Nazir and Rao should come back on, or they might get set. Arshad just got carted for six.

Philips batting well here...
 
Actually abdul it is you, guess who just picked up a wicket? Yup Imran Farhat, just before tea. Looks like Farhat is an auto selection now!
 
DJG Sales lbw b Imran Farhat 15 (52m 33b 3x4 0x6) sr: 45.45
fow: 84/6; partnership: 41 runs
 
Lol abdul...it actually makes sense..in a way

:))) :))) :)))

Latest news from Northants changing room is that Ganguly's injury is not as serious as first hoped, it's only a broken nail and there's no bruising.

However Ganguly has put in a request to the Northants board to grant him 3 weeks leave back home in Calcutta for recuperation on full pay.

The Northants players are said to be considering a whip round to help their board in this situation.

play back on, and farhat finishes with a wicket maiden
 
Looks like Farhat was just brought on for one over before tea, Samiullah back on.
 
ur slow man...no offense

guess who this is?
 
Just got back from work

Why is Ganguly crying? What happened? Did he get hit by one of our bowlers or is he pretending to be injured because even Rao, nazir and Niazi are too good for him?
 
i think arshad khan that tall offspinner was bowling too fast and too short, mustve bounced him and now he is hurt.

or was it that he found a 1mm patch of green grass and retired scared
 
Northamptonshire 269/3d & 120/7 v Pakistanis 250/9d

Northamptonshire lead by 139 runs

hopefully are openers will knock of any target we are set!
 
DH Wigley c Samiullah Khan b Imran Farhat 14 (19m 23b 3x4 0x6) sr: 60.86
fow: 124/8; partnership: 25 runs
 
Farhat seems to have bowled well in these tour matches! hoep he gets form back with bat!
 
Lead of 151 and last wicket in hand as Gangu Dada wont bat.Farhat should be bowling at OT as well Gosh he has got 2 for 11. :)))

Or atleast start to catch well in the slips that will be a huge change from Lords
 
So, you guys think Butt should give way to YK and either YK or Iqbal to open with Farhat?
 
Last wicket JF Brown c Iftikhar Anjum b Arshad Khan 4 (15m 12b 0x4 0x6) sr: 33.33
fow: 140/9; partnership: 16 runs
 
Pakistan's bowling card


Bowling O M R W Econ
Iftikhar Anjum 5 1 19 2 3.80
Shahid Nazir 7 2 33 3 4.71 (2nb)
Jannisar Khan 4 1 8 0 2.00
Samiullah Khan 7 1 24 0 3.42 (1nb)
Arshad Khan 10.3 2 31 2 2.95
Imran Farhat 5 1 15 2 3.00
 
Pakistan needs 160 Runs to win the match in about one full day...but the important thing will be the opening stand between Farhat and Butt,lets hope both of them get in some sort of form before OT
 
Ganguly is still too scared to face the likes of Farhat and Arshad so the innings is closed

160 to win. Let's hope Farhat and Butt stick it up everyones **** and win this by 10 wickets.

Well just hope that will happen...Inshallah
 
the final chapters of the ganguly story are getting more and more funnier

He cant score a run to save his life, he gets kicked out by guru greg, kiran more says he is an "Allrounder", He keeps getting out to pakistani bowlers, he is being bounced and injured by spinners, and also he has broken up with dalmiya

Let the ganguly soap opera roll on...............
 
Well Northants bundled out pretty early, lets see what Butt and Farhat can do.

Look who got to face 2 full balls of the innings!!! :P
 
Dare I say it, but have these two actually formed 1/4 of 100 partnership?

*clap*clap*
 
And its stumps, don't get cozy...Butt and Farhat have a LONG way to go...
 
its a miracle i tell you they were able to survive 7 overs without loosing their heads.
 
Farhat and Butt are fantastic cricketers regardless of one bad test match. They will prove it and then everyone will shut up about them and find someone else to bash. I wonder who the next scapegoat will be?
