205/4.

 

[Square Drive]

Are Zimbabwe going to make 300 against us?

Looks like it!

 

[akheR]

Cheema seems to be the Vinay Kumar of Pakistan

Or Varun Aaron.

[Square Drive]

Ervine sweeps Ajmal!

 

[ShaunMarshRules]

Just woke up to check the score. I'm glad Zimbabwe have been competitive. It's always hard to play mystery spinners the first time - Ajmal, Mendis, Murali- but the scorecard suggests they've been solid otherwise. I haven't seen most of today - what do you guys think, have Zimbabwe looked a professional outfit? Or has this been one of Pakistan's "lose to Bangladesh" and play crap days?

 

[akheR]

Last 10 overs RR : 3.50

What would had happened if Yasir Shah was selected ahead of Ajmal

 

[Square Drive]

Come on Aji, give Erv the Doosra and he'll fall!

 

[Pakhtoon_Rules]

Looks like it!

Waqar advising Ajmal at the boundary

What would had happened if Yasir Shah was selected ahead of Ajmal

Only a fool like you would've even thought about that.

 

[Sledger]

Village ball.

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Even Sami was better than this

New ball due after 4 overs

 

[Square Drive]

We know the score mate, we don't need an update every over.

 

[shahrukh619]

Lol, Meoemeow! They should bring on

[Sunny786]

This is one slow innings by mawoyo. How many balls did the slowest century in tests take?

 

[Square Drive]

Yeah, Taibu is like Taya Abbu

[NJamal]

We know the score mate, we don't need an update every over.

What is your problem with that? Mind your own business.

Iam sure after century mawoyo will dedicate it to Misbahulhaq

I've read about this somewhere and I remember it was by a Pakistani. Dunno who.

Mudassar Nazar.

Mudassar Nazar.

Ah yes, there you go.

[Sledger]

Why has Saeed Ajmal changed his action? Looks like he's been watching to many Mushtaq Ahmed clips.

 

[Sunny786]

We know the score mate, we don't need an update every over.

I do. You are not required to read it if you know it.

 

[cricfan967]

How'd that miss the stumps

 

[akheR]

This is one slow innings by mawoyo. How many balls did the slowest century in tests take?

Mudassar Nazar, 1st Test vs England, 1977, Lahore... 557 min.

http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63200.html

Mudassar, the 21-year-old son of former Test opener Nazar Mohammad, now Pakistan national coach, completed his century in nine hours seventeen minutes - twelve minutes slower than the previous record by D.J. McGlew for South Africa against Australia in the 1957-58 series.

In all, Mudassar batted nine minutes under ten hours for 114, with three of his twelve 4s arriving after his century. Used as the sheet anchor, Mudassar displayed remarkable concentration and unwavering resolve, and played his elected role to perfection.

 

[NJamal]

Ajmal is troubling Ervine

 

[NJamal]

223/4

 

[Sledger]

He has no idea.

 

[NJamal]

Swept for by Mawoyo

 

[Sledger]

Dived over it.

 

[sultanator]

LOL I've missed hearing this YO'SALF :adnan

 

[NJamal]

50 runs partnership between these 2.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Misfield and

 

[Seen Sheen]

Lethargic effort in the field.

 

[WakaWaka]

This is fun


All because of Misbah's decision to bat first!


Even if we got out for 200, it would have put doubts in Zim's minds to the nature of the pitch.

Suicidal decision!

 

[MVP26]

our bowling has been really pathetic

 

[Sledger]

New ball is available. What will do?

 

[NJamal]

228/4, New ball available now

 

[Seen Sheen]

LOL @ Hafeez.

 

[akheR]

New ball available.

 

[Square Drive]

What is your problem with that? Mind your own business.

You don't have to start fighting, mein to sirf usle bol raha tha takay tumhe takalluf naa karni parhe, but your choice.

 

[talha3]

Hafeez needs a 'Devon Smith' in the zim lineup.

 

[Seen Sheen]

should take the new ball.
Younis should bowl from the other end.

 

[NJamal]

New ball not taken by Chacha Misbah.

 

[NJamal]

You don't have to start fighting, mein to sirf usle bol raha tha takay tumhe takalluf naa karni parhe, but your choice.

Thanks for the concern, cheers

 

[talha3]

Last over of ajmal maybe

 

[WakaWaka]

Hafeez needs a 'Devon Smith' in the zim lineup.

He was only given 5 overs. Should have been more.

 

[Square Drive]

New ball not taken by Chacha Misbah.

I reckon he's gonna take it when it's Ajmal vs Ervine.

 

[Square Drive]

Thanks for the concern, cheers

No problem.

 

[Poison]

Oh Umar oi hoi :adnan

 

[Sledger]

Ajmal continuing. 9 over spell.

 

[NJamal]

230/4

 

[iRfaN_LA]

I don't understand why Gul and Riaz are being rested. They need match practice. Sohail Khan is not a test bowler. He is a good limited overs bowler. Aizaz Cheema shouldn't be in the side.

 

[Arcturus]

This bowling "attack" puts even India's to shame

 

[Sledger]

New ball taken.

 

[MVP26]

9 overs to go

 

[Seen Sheen]

Hafeez to bowl with the new ball.

 

[NJamal]

New ball taken by Hafeez, lol

 

[Square Drive]

This bowling "attack" puts even India's to shame

It's not that bad you idiot.
