From Cricinfo

"Umar Gul is the new man in. West Indies are into the tail. But this man can bat - he scored more runs than any other Pakistan batsman in England last year."

Is this claim from Cricinfo right. :O

Yes, I think they're right. Gul had the highest average on that tour IIRC.
 
This is crap........Afridi said it right, we need a batting coach. If players like afridi are demanding a batting coach then why doesn't the PCB appoint one? :-@
 
The hopes for a decent partnership has faded, now the stradegy should be to just hit around to a mark of 180-200 hopefully and then get WI out cheaply and get ready for a misbah special..
 
this pitch is going to get worse tomorrow and day after ...

boiz shall have to play outta skin to win this :inti
 
Most days Umar Akmal would put that away with ease.

Pitch did him in.

Another lame excuse:facepalm: - He scored his usual quota of runs. He would done the same thing and get out in any conditions. And whenever he will score 100+ plus runs, it will include couple of chances. Without them expect the talented 30-40 runs.
 
:facepalm

56.4


Rampaul to Saeed Ajmal, no run, funniest shot of the day! Short of a length, not the bouncer Ajmal thought it was, and it was gunning for his ribs. He was stuck on the crease like a deer in the flood lights, and a lazy, diffident deer at that. He ended up playing a monsquito swat at it, and luckily managed to get it away to the leg side. Hilarious!
 
This pitch is a bit too much for the Pakistanis... I guess WI did well to reach 220 (most of it due to drop catches) :misbah
 
Pak 138/8 - 88 Behind

what a shameful performance with the bat!
 
Rehman needs to keep the strike here and play a few lusty blows and see if we can get as close as possible to W.I total

We get it, you hate Umar Akmal.
 
A lot of short balls for rehman to combat here! hes battled hard here!
 
:)) Abdur Rehman really struggles against the short pitched stuff. Plants his front foot and then gets in a nothing position if its pitched short.
 
Too fast for Rehman.

As i type nice calculated shot from Rehman lands safely
 
We will get a Maximum 400 to 500 target to win this test match in 2 days. Mark my words.

I will not be surprised if that is what the outcome will be because knowing Misbah even if the target is 220 or 250 to win and we have 2 days or 1.5 days to do it, he will play out for a draw which is his speciality to draw when a win is in sight!
