[asif9138]

[qamar84]

Utseya to Misbah-ul-Haq, 2 runs, spins in sharply but Misbah is not bothered, he is back in the crease and nudging it through square leg, and comes back for the second to reach another Test fifty in his noble task of leading another Pakistan recovery

Misbah going for the legendary random six. Gets out. )

 

[asif9138]

misbah has given it away

 

[ViciousMachine]

Oh no.... big blow. Back into trouble now.

 

[Sakss]

Poor shot to end his innings

 

[asif9138]

Pakistan's fans will be happy, Misbah trying to hit a six and gets out.

Typical Pakistani fan right here.

"Hit a 6!!!"
2 seconds later: "WHAT!! Why did you try to hit a 6!!! Totally not required!!"

 

[Batman]

Misbah gone

 

[uziboi]

Pakistan's fans will be happy, Misbah trying to hit a six and gets out.

[Batman]

PAK | 4/120 in 47

 

[asif9138]

shafiq needs to score big here

 

[saiyan0312]

On the other hand azhar ali just 8 away from his 2000 runs.

 

[Ahson8]

WTH Misbah.

Rare brain fade from him

 

[saiyan0312]

Misbah has steadied the ship. now azhar and shafiq have to make a good partnership and adnan must contribute.

 

[asif9138]

Typical Pakistani fan right here.

"Hit a 6!!!"
2 seconds later: "WHAT!! Why did you try to hit a 6!!! Totally not required!!"

man i was hoping to get to see some 6s..but he failed..lol

 

[asif9138]

2 needed for azher to get 50

 

[asif9138]

azhar plz hit 4

 

[ViciousMachine]

WTH Misbah.

Rare brain fade from him

Im a Misbah fan, so probably biased. But I dont think it was a brain fade at all.

He used his feet, thought he got there, just didnt get the elevation. That is a typical Misbah shot. Much like his reverse sweep earlier in the innings.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it wont. But it was a calculated shot.

Although I wish he had just continued to take the singles. Azhar could have used his guidance.

 

[Sledger]

Wow, that's a long tail.

 

[saiyan0312]

Got to love azhar. 126 balls...

 

[Batman]

PAK | 4/120 in 48

Maiden!

Azhar stuck in 48*

 

[ViciousMachine]

man i was hoping to get to see some 6s..but he failed..lol

I wish it had been a 6 too. But the point is, you cant have both sides. If you want a 6, you have to live with the risk he might get out.

I just hope Azhar stays calm. No need to rush for that 50, play your game buddy. Just day 1.

 

[asif9138]

120

 

[saiyan0312]

by shafiq

 

[ViciousMachine]

Got to love azhar. 126 balls...

Still my 2nd favourite batsman in the Pakistani test team after Misbah. He always gets nervous in the 40s and 90s.

Just hope he stays patient, especially since we just lost Misbah. A few maidens wont matter.

 

[Batman]

PAK | 4/124 in 49

4 off the over!

 

[Sledger]

lol @ how relaxed Hafeez is. He knows under Misbah he'll never sit out in any format.

 

[asif9138]

i missed asad's 4

 

[imshally81]

lol @ how relaxed hafeez is. He knows under misbah he'll never sit out in any format.

[WebGuru]

[saiyan0312]

World class but... short and wide and fifty by azhar. only 4 away from 2000 runs

 

[WNC]

Azhar reaches his 50.

 

[ViciousMachine]

50!!!! Great innings!!!

Well played boy!!!

 

[imshally81]

50 up

 

[saiyan0312]

Still my 2nd favourite batsman in the Pakistani test team after Misbah. He always gets nervous in the 40s and 90s.

Just hope he stays patient, especially since we just lost Misbah. A few maidens wont matter.

One of my favorites too. Love his old style gritty knocks.

 

[WNC]

I'd like to know what Chishti considers a good conversion rate.

 

[Sakss]

Clap Clap Azhar well done

 

[Sakss]

Make a big 100 Azhar

 

[asif9138]

44 again

 

[WNC]

2,000 runs for Azhar.

 

[saiyan0312]

2000 runs for Azhar at an avg of 44.... Very Good.

 

[Batman]

2,000 runs for Azhar aswell

 

[asif9138]

2000 for AA

 

[Batman]

PAK | 4/132 in 50

[The Dark Corner]

He's done well hasn't he? I hope he shows up against the bigger sides.
