West Indies v Pakistan | 3rd Test | Roseau, Dominica | May 10-14, 2017 | Day 5

[Rayyman]

Beautiful bowling by Hasan.

False.

Law of Junaids states that a fast bowler in Test cricket must have a stature above 6'1 to succeed.

 

[ExpressPacer]

Should stop bowling Abbas. Absolutely innocuous at this stage with his lack of pace and no swing or seam. Just darting it in.

 

[IMMY69]

This match is going exactly as planned

Enjoy it guys

 

[Big Mac]

Same here .. I think it's going to be worse the closer the end nears.

As long as Ramiz isn't on the mic when it happens I will be OK, otherwise I will be so angry I'll throw my laptop through the TV

 

[Mamoon]

Is Hasan can increase his pace, he will become lethal with the old ball. His action, release and his length are perfect for reverse-swing.

 

[shaz619]

I have never understood why Younis and Misbah wear watches on the field. If they want to keep track of the time, it is there on the board.

It's just a timer they set for the number of seconds it takes for their drinking cup to fill before they can take a gulp or two of all their haters tears

 

[ExpressPacer]

lol @ azhar ali calling Abbas AB

 

[Mamoon]

False.

Law of Junaids states that a fast bowler in Test cricket must have a stature above 6'1 to succeed.

He just needs to bowl a little quicker on average.

 

[IMMY69]

Should stop bowling Abbas. Absolutely innocuous at this stage with his lack of pace and no swing or seam. Just darting it in.

You were saying?

 

[Mamoon]

Bishoo playing the short ball like Masood.

 

[IMMY69]

That last half hour is looking difficult now

 

[Rayyman]

Should stop bowling Abbas. Absolutely innocuous at this stage with his lack of pace and no swing or seam. Just darting it in.

That's why. Lethal bouncers from Ishant Sharma 2.0.

 

[Adil_94]

If u give Hasan Wahabs pace we have a serious bowler on our hands.

 

[Markhor]

At last !

 

[Slog]

Yes Abbas!!!

Masood is a safe fielder have to say

 

[Hasan123]

False.

Law of Junaids states that a fast bowler in Test cricket must have a stature above 6'1 to succeed.

Lol good one

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Yes!! Brilliant bowling

 

[Adil_94]

we have to get this now.

 

[Slog]

If u give Hasan Wahabs pace we have a serious bowler on our hands.

If you could play mix and match with our bowlers (or batsmen) we would have a world class team

 

[msb314]

Yesss!!!!!!!!!

 

[Hasan123]

Brilliant delivery from Abbas.

 

[ExpressPacer]

Yes Abbas!!!

Masood is a safe fielder have to say

Has crazy work out regimes. Honestly, really liked him at the start but has no place in international cricket

 

[Adil_94]

Joseph and Gabriel are bunnies should get them quickly.

 

[Big Mac]

oooooof, that's a difficult take for any keeper

 

[Slog]

Should stop bowling Abbas. Absolutely innocuous at this stage with his lack of pace and no swing or seam. Just darting it in.

Yeah talk nah!

 

[Adil_94]

[MENTION=138463]Slog[/MENTION] Hasan has all the tools just needs an extra 5-10k of pace n he could become world class.

 

[Big Mac]

It's just a timer they set for the number of seconds it takes for their drinking cup to fill before they can take a gulp or two of all their haters tears

 

[shaz619]

That didn't take long

 

[00_Zed]

is the match showing on any channel in the uk > sky were showing the match but cannot find it at the moment

 

[dildildalwalla]

Why are they giving chase so much space? Get in 3 slips and 2 catchers in either side. Let him drive if he wants.

 

[IMMY69]

Chase under pressure now

 

[Rayyman]

Can't blame Bishoo. Lasted an hour out there. WI need to get rid of passengers like Powell and Singh.

 

[IMMY69]

is the match showing on any channel in the uk > sky were showing the match but cannot find it at the moment

Sky sports 5. Press the red button

 

[Big Mac]

is the match showing on any channel in the uk > sky were showing the match but cannot find it at the moment

Sky Sports 5 > red button

 

[00_Zed]

thanks!!

 

[dildildalwalla]

How many times have Pakistan snatched a win in the last hour of the final day? Yet Ramiz is here spewing nonsense like a panicky child.

Maghrib time but when I come back I better be listening to Bazid, Bish and Fazeer. I don't want this idiot killing my brain cells when Misbah and Younis walk off the field.

is the match showing on any channel in the uk > sky were showing the match but cannot find it at the moment

Yeah. Go sky sports 5 and press the red button

 

[On_the_up]

How much time/overs are actualy left?

Do they have to bowl 20 min?

When is the last hour starting, now?

 

[IMMY69]

Another drop. Harder chance

 

[Big Mac]

ANOTHER dropped catch, although this was a lot harder than the earlier one.

 

[NauV]

Dropped again!!!! Damn itt!! 2 times . .

 

[IAJ]

Dropped and injured

 

[Rayyman]

Don't worry boys just a bruise

 

[Slog]

Should have taken it

Needs to work on a smoother follow through

 

[Markhor]

Joseph and Gabriel are bunnies should get them quickly.

Trust them to start batting like Dravid and Amla knowing our luck in Caribbean over the years.

 

[Slog]

ANOTHER dropped catch, although this was a lot harder than the earlier one.

The chance was very hard due to the position

But if his follow through was smoother this would have been fairly simple

Needs to work

 

[Hasan123]

Harder chance then the previous one.

 

[IMMY69]

Joseph the bunny to face now

 

[ExpressPacer]

Hasan Ali is getting Anwar Ali-esque swing.

 

[Slog]

[MENTION=138463]Slog[/MENTION] Hasan has all the tools just needs an extra 5-10k of pace n he could become world class.

Yes but the thing is I doubt he can increase a whole lot now

As is he has added an average of 3-5kph since his debut in PSL last year

It's unheard of of a player adding 15kph speed

 

[QalandarFan]

56 minutes to get the final two wickets!

 

[IMMY69]

Abbas should just ball Yorkers and cutters to Joseph

 

[Rayyman]

Yes but the thing is I doubt he can increase a whole lot now

As is he has added an average of 3-5kph since his debut in PSL last year

It's unheard of of a player adding 15kph speed

Cmon bro what has happened you are now a wrist slitter

 

[QalandarFan]

Need to get Jospeh in this over

 

[ExpressPacer]

You can't bounce out a tall guy with your pace Abbas...

 

[QalandarFan]

Whoa what was that!

 

[Big Mac]

Lucky that didn't hit Joseph

 

[Mamoon]

Hasan bowls a beamer,

Waqar: ''don't think he meant it''

 

[Hasan123]

What was that ?

 

[Big Mac]

oooooooooooooooh my god, that wasn't far from hitting the off stump

 

[IAJ]

The chance was very hard due to the position

But if his follow through was smoother this would have been fairly simple

Needs to work

He actually fields very well on his FT, seen him running out batsmen and even take catches.

 

[Slog]

Cmon bro what has happened you are now a wrist slitter

Just talking based on experience with other bowlers

Regardless Hasan is skilled so he should have a long career

 

[QalandarFan]

So close!

 

[ExpressPacer]

I will always have a serious disregard for trundlers like Abbas no matter how many wickets they get. They look so innocuous.

 

[IAJ]

Hasan bowls a beamer,

Waqar: ''don't think he meant it''

It was Abbas...

 

[Rayyman]

Hasan bowls a beamer,

Waqar: ''don't think he meant it''

Joseph only dodged it because it was Abbas. That would've been a concussion if it were Hasan.

 

[NauV]

The fight shown by these WI batsman is admirable . . They can almost flip around their batting order and be a better side . . Even Joseph has a proper forward defense

 

[QalandarFan]

That was literally Centimetres away

 

[Slog]

How many overs!?!?!?

 

[On_the_up]

Where is the yorker??

 

[Rayyman]

How many overs!?!?!?

18

 

[QalandarFan]

Should we take the second new ball?

 

[IMMY69]

How many overs!?!?!?

Slog Bhai relax..

Plenty of time

 

[Slog]

Amir to get new ball?

 

[ExpressPacer]

Wish we had Wahab at this stage.

 

[Mamoon]

It was Abbas...

Yes, my bad, but my intention was to highlight Waqar's brilliant insight.

 

[IAJ]

Should we take the second new ball?

Why not?

 

[Slog]

Slog Bhai relax..

Plenty of time

Someone earlier posted 20 mins only.

That would hardly be 5 overs

 

[Mamoon]

Wish we had Wahab at this stage.

WI would have had a shot at winning this match.

 

[IMMY69]

I would take Abbas off now and bring Back Yasir

 

[Rayyman]

Joseph is an alpha. Take notes Rahat.
