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

[hur rizvi]

Pakistan will chase 300 Plus
Things not going our way at all
Ajmal Bowling Rubbish

Hahaha Pakistan chasing 300+

 

[Bilal7]

Not looking like much of an idiot now

Didn't you say that Zimbabwe were going to win the second ODI and the first test as well? Whats with your obsession with Pakistan?

 

[Asif321]

why do you say that ? As a skipper,one would like to field the best available . 109 for 1 btw .

thats the problem he doesnt have vision to know who is good and who is not
that is why he fought with selectors to get in

 

[HASHAM2]

Although Bangladesh are superior to Zimbabwe in LOIs, these series they have proved that they are better than us in tests or that Pakistan are just as weak. I think its more of the formet better than the latter.

thay are better than BD in Odi and T-20 to

 

[Executioner]

Someone give the damn ball to Rehman.

Left arm spinners are effective against RHB and I dont think ajmal can bowl doosras in this sort of conditions.

 

[HASHAM2]

ehsan and wahab not looking serious for team

 

[Aman]

Didn't you say that Zimbabwe were going to win the second ODI and the first test as well? Whats with your obsession with Pakistan?

I follow most cricket matches

I know Pakistan can do much better.

 

[Ims1]

115 for 1 . If Zim bat like this till tea on day 4 ,they would set a target of around 360 & in 4 sessions or 120 overs .Since a rr of 3 is beyond this pathetic team ,they will have no option but to do tuk-tuk for 4 sessions to draw out the game .

 

[HASHAM2]

Bring hafeez on

 

[imshally81]

Poor Captaincy

 

[HASHAM2]

Rehman take 7 or 8 wickets

 

[mithun_minhas]

Things not looking good for Pak.

But it only takes 1 wicket for Zim to fold like a cheap lawn chair.

 

[saiyan0312]

yaar waisay agar har jaye to bara shughal hoga.... I will expect threads to open left and right.

 

[hur rizvi]

Zimbabweans looking Solid, Pakistan yet to dismiss a proper batsman i this innings...

 

[HASHAM2]

Single in hand of fielder

 

[mithun_minhas]

When was the last time Zim has even draawn a Test Match against a non-minnow team?

 

[Executioner]

thay are better than BD in Odi and T-20 to

nope

we have done well in LOIs in the past. Our fielding creates the differences.

 

[hur rizvi]

115 for 1 . If Zim bat like this till tea on day 4 ,they would set a target of around 360 & in 4 sessions or 120 overs .Since a rr of 3 is beyond this pathetic team ,they will have no option but to do tuk-tuk for 4 sessions to draw out the game .

Draw is the least possible result in a match involving Zimbabwe and Pakistan

 

[Sledger]

Zimbabwe well ahead in this game now.

 

[HASHAM2]

Rahat take wickets

 

[hur rizvi]

Beauty from Rahat

 

[HASHAM2]

that was lbw

 

[mithun_minhas]

How the hell did Unadkat terrorize these Zim batsmen while the likes of Junaid is struggling?

 

[hur rizvi]

that was lbw

No it was going over the top

 

[HASHAM2]

Rehman and Rahat good bowling pair

 

[saiyan0312]

if zimabwe lose this then they have only themselves to blame.

 

[hur rizvi]

122/1


MAsakadza should do that, Blocking wont take him anywhere

 

[HASHAM2]

Masakdaza get away there
luck not on our side at all

 

[hur rizvi]

Bit of turn for Rehman

 

[Pakistan cricket 4 Life]

Looks like Zimbabwe will declare!!!!

 

[saiyan0312]

124/1 and still two days to go.

 

[hur rizvi]

Masakdaza get away there
luck not on our side at all

More than luck, Pathetic cricket from Pakistan has resulted in this situation

 

[Executioner]

i have lost count of how many times Masakadza has edged the ball

 

[hur rizvi]

Bowling attack looking toothless....

 

[Executioner]

Masakdaza get away there
luck not on our side at all

luck maybe a factor but the fact remains that Zimbabwe are playing freely. There seems to be no pressure at all and hence they are getting away with everything.

If they were under pressure, a lot of them would have gone straight to the fielders

 

[Bilal7]

Draw seems to be on the cards.

 

[Aman]

Luck favors the brave

 

[Ims1]

u Drunk
Junaid taken 10 around wickets in this series

no need for these kind of replies .

This is very poor showing from the PK team & any one who does not accept it is clearly deluded .

126 for 1 .

 

[Asif321]

zimbabwe need another 160 runs and they will surely not loose

 

[HASHAM2]

Junaid come on

 

[Executioner]

by the end of this session, zimbabwe will be ahead by 200 runs, so there is no chance of a draw

 

[hur rizvi]

Draw seems to be on the cards.

Dont see a draw coming, Both batting lines are prone to collapse and 4th innings on an under prepared pitch is extremely difficult to bat on

 

[Asif321]

misbah has already planned they will go for draw

 

[Sledger]

Lead gets to 128..

 

[HASHAM2]

Pitch not playing that badly

 

[Ims1]

by the end of this session, zimbabwe will be ahead by 200 runs, so there is no chance of a draw

PK can bat out the last 4 sessions in their usual tedious style . no demons in the pitch yet & this is a minnow they are facing .

 

[Aman]

by the end of this session, zimbabwe will be ahead by 200 runs, so there is no chance of a draw

This.

Only two results left.

 

[hur rizvi]

misbah has already planned they will go for draw

PAthetic field settings, Easy singles all around, anyway draw against Zimbabwe is as bad as a loss

 

[Asif321]

im supporting zimbabwe , they deserve to win , and hopefully they will

 

[HASHAM2]

Pitch is playing same as was on 1st day

 

[Asif321]

moin khan's first assigment as manager has been disaster so far

 

[HASHAM2]

Good over from Rehman

 

[hur rizvi]

PK can bat out the last 4 sessions in their usual tedious style . no demons in the pitch yet & this is a minnow they are facing .

I hope they lose, rather than draw because in that case zimbabwe would be deserving winners

 

[Aman]

Pitch is playing same as was on 1st day

Maybe it's just the Pakistani batsmen?..

 

[Executioner]

Draw seems to be on the cards.

6 more sessions left + 20 overs. Its more likely that zimbabwe will win than a draw happening

 

[HASHAM2]

Bowl is coming on bat

and PP members were saying Pitch will do that
will do that

 

[HASHAM2]

Maybe it's just the Pakistani batsmen?..

nothing wrong with pitch

 

[HASHAM2]

Four

 

[hur rizvi]

Extremely poor bowling from Junaid khan

 

[Executioner]

PK can bat out the last 4 sessions in their usual tedious style . no demons in the pitch yet & this is a minnow they are facing .

the same minnows that bowled you out for 229 and 249. I think they have to bat 15 overs extra as zim will declare by drinks. So its more likely that Pakistan will win than managing to drop the match.

 

[Aman]

Zimbabwe RR 2.70
Last 10 ovs 35/0 RR 3.50

 

[battler]

Suddenly pitch looks like a motorway when zimbos are batting

 

[mithun_minhas]

In the last replay, Junaid's action looked very dodgy.

Never saw Vitori bowl, but in that wickets highlights, Vitori looked more like a baseball pitcher. If that is not chucking, I don't know what is.

 

[HASHAM2]

Need to bring Hafeez in place of Junaid
Hafeez and rehman bowling

 

[hur rizvi]

Wicket doesnt look like coming

 

[Ims1]

133 for 1 . Draw lagta hai .

 

[doctordamor]

It is settled Pak batting line up is worst in all test playing countries

 

[HASHAM2]

Bowl keep so low

 

[HASHAM2]

Again brillent bowl

 

[bin_pendi_ka_lota]

How good is Pakistani pace battery?

 

[mithun_minhas]

Pitch is not easy to bat on.

Zim are actually playing exceedingly well and they are also riding on their luck.

 

[HASHAM2]

Watching Waqar Bowling on Youtube

 

[saiyan0312]

when we bat looks like south africa but when opposition bats it looks like india..... same old story.

 

[Electron]

It's official in my mind now.. Pakistan bowlers are not the rockstars I imagined them to be

 

[Ims1]

the same minnows that bowled you out for 229 and 249. I think they have to bat 15 overs extra as zim will declare by drinks. So its more likely that Pakistan will win than managing to drop the match.

Zim will be around 190 ahead today at close . For them to declare after 45 overs on day 4 means a target of 325 in around 133 overs - do not think Zim will be that adventurous . 360 in 120 overs looks more reasonable & PK can bat 4 session. nothing dicey in the pitch atm .

 

[Pakistan cricket 4 Life]

Rehman looks like he will get a wicket soon...especially with the low bounce

 

[Convict]

How are Pakistan ranked ahead of Australia?

 

[doctordamor]

not a good test match 4 Ajmal so far, kudos to Zimb to play him so easily

 

[JibranAnsari]

Hope misbah is sacked as captain after this test match.

 

[Pakistan cricket 4 Life]

How are Pakistan ranked ahead of Australia?

The same way England, India and South Africa are ranked higher
