Zimbabwe vs Pakistan | 2nd Test | Harare | 12/09/2013 | Day 3

[hur rizvi]

Spin is clearly not working for Pak.

Zim players are playing them very easily.

Time to bring in Junaid or Rahat.

Rehman has looked good, Ajmal hasnt been able to build the pressure

 

[Ims1]

Why would you want Abdur kicked out?

I do not rate him as a bowler . he bowls flat -what we call riggey .

 

[GreenKnightRises]

OUr Jokers Had a miserable day with the bat again........

 

[saiyan0312]

ah,another conspiracy . Your reluctance to accept mediocrity is not funny any more . It will be a draw & a Zim's test in totality .

No no conspiracy .... It was a joke man but umpiring in this series has been shockingly inept.. zimbabwe has had their share of bad decisions too.

 

[Justcrazy]

Zimbabwe lead by 180 runs with 9 wickets remaining

 

[Executioner]

According to some of the commenters on CI, the match is going to be a draw.

Zimbabwe are smart enough to give enough time to get Pakistan all out. Also, they are going to give a target which is reachable for Pakistan in that time period.

 

[Justcrazy]

Zim in great position here.

 

[saiyan0312]

salman something previous tour, no matter what you say, adnan has kept well better then anyone and one drop catch an't going to change that

previous tour last month we took umer akmal and he kept..three drops in the series.Like i said what works in his favour is that others dont work out too.. We need to try a new keeper like rizwan.

 

[mosh101]

All smiles is zimbabwe

 

[Executioner]

No no conspiracy .... It was a joke man but umpiring in this series has been shockingly inept.. zimbabwe has had their share of bad decisions too.

quite true

even when BD last toured zim there were a lot of wrong decisions. 60% were against us, 40% against Zimbabwe

 

[Justcrazy]

Qazi: "i can sense zim winning by taking lead of 350+. Would be too much pressure on pak batsmen"

 

[Asif321]

zimbabwe need another 100 runs and they dont need to worry

 

[saeedhk]

Big upset on the cards.

 

[mosh101]

Lets trade masakadza for hafeez

 

[Justcrazy]

If pakistan batsmen play like this against Zim what will they do against SA / ENG and what will they do in Australia in WC

 

[mithun_minhas]

Sikandar Raza looks like Ajit Agarkar.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan cannot chase, not under pressure to win against Zimbabwe... they are already past the number of runs that would have been safe to chase. Beyond 250, I doubt the batting will last in current form," opines Morfi from UK

 

[Justcrazy]

3 overs left

 

[saeedhk]

Nothig working.

 

[mosh101]

Qazi: "i can sense zim winning by taking lead of 350+. Would be too much pressure on pak batsmen"

They have to put us to bat in tomorrow ! This way, they'll have enough time to run through us !

 

[Electron]

Big upset on the cards.

Naah.. not that big (if it happens at all). Pakistan have been disappointing ever since the England whitewash in UAE.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Pak should poach a few batsmen from Zimbabwe.

They should start with their own guy Sikandar Raza.

 

[doctordamor]

previous tour last month we took umer akmal and he kept..three drops in the series.Like i said what works in his favour is that others dont work out too.. We need to try a new keeper like rizwan.

as much you want rizwan he is not coming and just for that I hope he never plays ever 4 pak, coz this is typical pak fans nonsense of hyping some unknown who gets shown up on intl level, I remember when salman was sent on tour was touted best keeper in pak, the guy was pathetic behind the wkts and couldn't hold the bat to save his life.

All pak fans typical attitude hype or condemn, adnan has done very well behind the stumps one mistake and lets kill him.

 

[mosh101]

Commies trolling ajmal

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 104 runs here

 

[mosh101]

Big wicket for rehman

 

[hur rizvi]

Rehman really deserved that wicket

 

[mosh101]

Low bounce does the trick

 

[doctordamor]

Finally abdurrehman gets the wkt, should have tried him over ajmal same thing misbah did in 1st inning persisted with ajmal for so long when he should have brought abdurrehman after 2 max 3 overs ajmal getting hammered

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan simply has to get rid of 6 - 7 players from this Team to bring change.

 

[saiyan0312]

maoyo goes... Plz let it open the flood gates.

 

[Executioner]

finally LOL. Zimbabwe are now effectively 1 down

 

[Pakistan cricket 4 Life]

I do not rate him as a bowler . he bowls flat -what we call riggey .

He's the only one that really looks like taking a wicket, and has done well whenever i've seen him play.

Not much of a great bowler in first innings but his a handful in the 2nd innings

and just as i type he takes a WICKET!!!!

 

[Justcrazy]

gets a wicket at last

 

[mithun_minhas]

Mawoyo misses a straight one.

Pak gets their breakthrough. Now they should aim to get 2 more wickets in quick succession. If not today, tomorrow morning.

 

[mosh101]

Lets bag panyangara

 

[hur rizvi]

as much you want rizwan he is not coming and just for that I hope he never plays ever 4 pak, coz this is typical pak fans nonsense of hyping some unknown who gets shown up on intl level, I remember when salman was sent on tour was touted best keeper in pak, the guy was pathetic behind the wkts and couldn't hold the bat to save his life.

All pak fans typical attitude hype or condemn, adnan has done very well behind the stumps one mistake and lets kill him.

I past Adnan has done well with gloves, but in this series he has been pathetic

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to keep the lead somehow within 250 - 275 here.

 

[mosh101]

Cracking drive for four

 

[Osman]

why is rahat ali bowling last over of the day....pathetic stuff

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to get another here.

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

 

[Sledger]

3 down now..

 

[Pakistan cricket 4 Life]

Another one gone

OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[hur rizvi]

Lovely delivery from Rahat

 

[mosh101]

Another one ! Double strikeee

 

[Justcrazy]

 

[doctordamor]

the reason wkt wasn't misbehaving was inning change heavy roller, pak should request heaviest roller

 

[Sledger]

Pakistan to win now.

 

[HASHAM2]

Zimbabwe 185/3

Pakistan were 185/3 Before new ball taken
and bowled out 230/10

Hopefully same happen with Zimbabwe

We have to bowl as same as zimbabwe did
so we may have chance to win this test
230 target plez

 

[mithun_minhas]

Poor decision from Davis.

Masadza goes.

Pak needed that wicket to get back in the game.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to get another here.

Yesssssssssssssssssssssss

 

[doctordamor]

I past Adnan has done well with gloves, but in this series he has been pathetic

on dropping 1 catch?

 

[mosh101]

Pressure on taylor

 

[saiyan0312]

as much you want rizwan he is not coming and just for that I hope he never plays ever 4 pak, coz this is typical pak fans nonsense of hyping some unknown who gets shown up on intl level, I remember when salman was sent on tour was touted best keeper in pak, the guy was pathetic behind the wkts and couldn't hold the bat to save his life.

All pak fans typical attitude hype or condemn, adnan has done very well behind the stumps one mistake and lets kill him.

This is not hype. Hype is " Oh rizwan is the answer to all our keeping problems and our batting woes and he is a middle order batsmen so it will solve our collapse problem too. He will be better then ab and dhoni combined" Thats hype. Trying a newbie to find out if there is a better talent out there is not hype but actually a wise experiment. For example if umer is willing in tests then kick adnan out and have him keep...


rahat gets a wicket... cmon flood gates.

 

[Osman]

why is rahat ali bowling last over of the day....pathetic stuff

)

 

[Justcrazy]

Zimbabwe lead by 185 runs with 7 wickets remaining

 

[Justcrazy]

Both settled batsmen gone.

 

[mosh101]

Rehman should knock out the night watchman

 

[Saurav]

bad decision there

 

[HASHAM2]

Pakistan to take 7 wicket,s inside 45 runs like Zimbabwe
Hopefully

 

[Osman]

Poor decision from Davis.

Masadza goes.

Pak needed that wicket to get back in the game.

[Justcrazy]

[Pakistan cricket 4 Life]

[mosh101]

Outttttt rehman you beauty

 

[saiyan0312]

[HASHAM2]

Pakistan Selectors should not drop Rahat in near future
this guy has serious talent as fast bowler

swing both way which i like most

Keep him in team

 

[doctordamor]

Damn y abdurrehman why you in team we need to kick this guy out keep taking wkts

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Zimbos Struggling.....

 

[mosh101]

Perfect end to the day

 

[HASHAM2]

Paya Marshall bye bye

 

[hur rizvi]

Rehman reaping result of some good bowling through out the day

 

[Electron]

And the comeback starts here !

 

[saiyan0312]

Still its is zimbabwe day... we needed three more wickets to make it ours.

 

[Pakistan cricket 4 Life]

 

[qamar84]

what a finish by

 

[Justcrazy]

second innings specialist

 

[mithun_minhas]

Another one goes.

Both Night Watchmen fail miserably.

Lucky for Zim, they still have Taylor, Waller and Chigumbura even after losing wickets.

 

[Electron]

Match evenly poised now.
