Zimbabwe vs Pakistan | 1st Test | Harare | 06/09/2013 | Day 4

[JibranAnsari]

Surprise Even misbah can YAWNN

 

[Bashira_taeli]

Cmon Adnan

 

[bin_pendi_ka_lota]

yep..4 an over will do it but doesn't look like in the plan right now..

Plan Looks like add 100 more runs in next 40 overs. That will take the lead just about 300... May be 5 overs of lashing after that and ask zimbos to bat against new ball for about 10 overs.

 

[MRSN]

beautiful drive to get his fifty..well played

 

[Bashira_taeli]

50 for Adnan

 

[WNC]

Adnan gets his fifty. Well played Darmiyana Akmal

 

[saiyan0312]

2 runs and fifty for adnan. well played.

 

[Wattoo]

congrats Adnan well played

 

[Red Devil]

Fifty for Adnan

 

[maddgenius]

Well played Adnan

 

[Bilal7]

Why play slowly now? We need to get another quick 60-70 runs and then declare.

 

[Sledger]

50 to Adnan.

 

[Ahson8]

Well played Adnan

 

[MRSN]

Plan Looks like add 100 more runs in next 40 overs. That will take the lead just about 300... May be 5 overs of lashing after that and ask zimbos to bat against new ball for about 10 overs.

it does seem like but I'd like us to bowl min. 20-25 overs tonight..

 

[saiyan0312]

shouldnt get out now.... we need a good lead.

 

[Saeed]

Why do zimbabweans shave their heads, every single of them have tind.

 

[Azlan Khan]

Excellent batting by Adnan.

 

[MRSN]

Masakadza has captained Zim better than Misbah has Pakistan.

 

[saiyan0312]

younis needs 130 runs to reach 7000 runs..... out of curiosity if younis khan can make a 300 here would you like a draw?

 

[bin_pendi_ka_lota]

ODI cricket is not just about SR, and only 1.5 is the difference of SR , and you are saying that on this basis he is better.

No. I am saying it because i think if Misbah and YK are in the side then thay can take Pakistan beyond 200 in each game in most conditions.... And you got bowlers to defnd that atleast in Australian conditions...# worldcup

 

[MRSN]

What???I didn't know Payangara conceded just 25 runs off 22 overs?11 maidens?

 

[Sledger]

Taylor having a net.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan lead by 189 runs with 5 wickets remaining

 

[saeedhk]

Payangara, 22 overs 25 runs.

 

[Justcrazy]

Now Pakistan looking good

 

[Sledger]

Good patience, can't really do much with that bowling.

 

[Wattoo]

YK double or akmal single century? whats on card?

 

[Xoib]

What???I didn't know Payangara conceded just 25 runs off 22 overs?11 maidens?

very good bowler we are making him look better then he is but bowls accurately at decent pace with ball nipping both in and out.

 

[Wattoo]

Why play slowly now? We need to get another quick 60-70 runs and then declare.

If they got out scoring just 10 runs in this way, then? u will be balming them

 

[Saeed]

Please show the net practice it will be much more interesting.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan batsmen showing too much respect to Tinashe Panyangara

 

[Xoib]

Good patience, can't really do much with that bowling.

what many of us have not appreciated is how Zim has played out of their skins in conditions that suit them the bowlers bowl no loose stuff while the batsman have shown goodish technique.

 

[MRSN]

If they got out scoring just 10 runs in this way, then? u will be balming them

time is running out..

 

[Xoib]

time is running out..

we are not out of the woods a wicket here esp YK and the target can be 205-210.

 

[Bilal7]

If they got out scoring just 10 runs in this way, then? u will be balming them

They have their eye in. They should be scoring at atleast 4 runs per over.

 

[Sledger]

Lead has been stuck on 189 for a long time.

 

[Bilal7]

21 dots in a row is pretty bad at this stage.

 

[Sledger]

0(21)

Lead stuck on 189.

 

[Bashira_taeli]

Time to get a move on

 

[Justcrazy]

Three maidens in a row .

 

[Justcrazy]

22nd dot

 

[Sledger]

Brutal commentary there.

 

[Justcrazy]

Finally a single

 

[Sledger]

First run after 22 dots.

 

[MRSN]

we are not out of the woods a wicket here esp YK and the target can be 205-210.

true well playing out maidens doesn't help either..at least needs to bat at 2/3 runs per over for next 10 and then go ODI mode..

 

[MRSN]

how did yk missed that? haha

 

[Sledger]

Younis getting bogged down. Rare for him.

 

[Bashira_taeli]

Brutal commentary there.

Muft mai baisti kr di A+ bhai ki

 

[Sledger]

Leg break lol.

 

[Red Devil]

Bee Attack

 

[MRSN]

what the hell happened?)

 

[Justcrazy]

50 more overs left in the day.

 

[Justcrazy]

is even thinking about declaration

 

[Red Devil]

100 run Partnership

 

[Sledger]

22 dots and this is what happens.

 

[MRSN]

half volley. pulled for


that also brings the 100 partnership

 

[Bashira_taeli]

Shot!

 

[Sledger]

Nice shot for four.

 

[Azzurri]

by street cricketer

 

[Sledger]

100 stand.

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

 

[Red Devil]

Classy shot

 

[Bashira_taeli]

Adnan looking very good here.

 

[MRSN]

that came in..

 

[Sledger]

Once they get to the 200 lead, Adnan should free up. Younis can carry on but should stay there with the tail.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to move the game forward. There is no point in scoring 9 runs in 10 overs." It looks like they are eager to up the rate form here

cricinfo

 

[MRSN]

just 15 runs in 13 overs? this is not good..

 

[MRSN]

here comes their best ODI bowler..

 

[Sledger]

Taylor jr looked like he was going to do a with that bat.

 

[Sledger]

Utseya on, time for some Younis sweeps.

 

[MRSN]

good plan from Utseya

 

[Sledger]

Reverse sweep gone wrong. Dot.

 

[Sledger]

274/5.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan lead by 196 runs with 5 wickets remaining

 

[saiyan0312]

"Imagine if it was Misbah going at this pace...The Pakistan supporters would have gone ballistic by now...I really feel for him"

Has a point..... inside edge.

 

[MRSN]

Adnan's edges hardly carry

 

[Xoib]

how come Junaid and Rahat got no seam movement after 5 overs when these guys are doing it at will.

 

[imshally81]

it seems that the cracks are opening ....

 

[Osman]

time to get a move on...need 300 lead

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 106 runs.
