Zimbabwe vs Pakistan | 2nd Test | Harare | 13/09/2013 | Day 4

[Aman]

Misbah not a match winner in tests, it's a way too big mountain to climb now

If he scores 70+ Pakistan win.

 

[battler]

Expecting misbah to play tuk tuk like never before!

 

[hur rizvi]

Its Zimbos people.

Not Aus or SA. Their bowling is below average. One partnership of 50 runs and the match will be Pak's.

Doesnt matter, Pressure of 4th innings, Add to that consider the pressure Shafiq is under...

It's all but over for Pakistan

 

[Red Devil]

Its Zimbos people.

Not Aus or SA. Their bowling is below average. One partnership of 50 runs and the match will be Pak's.

Apart from YK our Batting is worse than a club level team so even though its Zimbos but they'll still win it from here.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Match Over - Misbah Has Never and Never Will Win a Test Match for us . MARK IT

 

[Sandeep]

Asad Shafiq will guide Pakistan through... Any bets??

 

[Ims1]

Both teams are being quoted at more or less same odds . ignore wrist-slitters ,evenly poised from here

 

[qamar84]

mini man take a single

 

[HASHAM2]

Asad will play well in this inning

 

[WebGuru]

asad shafiq will guide pakistan through... Any bets??

+1

 

[Sledger]

Misbah on strike.

 

[WebGuru]

Match Over - Misbah Has Never and Never Will Win a Test Match for us . MARK IT

Marked...Let's see

 

[hur rizvi]

If he scores 70+ Pakistan win.

Younis was Pakistan's last hope, defeat is looking a reality now...

Misbah is an average test player, Shafiq is in Pathetic form, and this is last recognised pair

 

[Sandeep]

I can't understand Pakistan's problem. Their bowling looks good, batting looks decent with YK, Misbah and other average players; Why do they struggle in test matches so much?

 

[PakGirl!]

Oh Lord..come on Shafiq!if these 2 settle there is still a chance..

 

[bigdaddymiandad]

Its game on! In Misbah we believe

 

[hur rizvi]

Asad Shafiq will guide Pakistan through... Any bets??

Dont think he'll be able to do that...

He is under too much pressure, his place in the team is under question..

 

[Ims1]

Asad Shafiq will guide Pakistan through... Any bets??

ok,if he does not ,you shall call me Sir Ims1 . In the unlikely event that he remains not out & wins the game, i shall call you Sir Sandy . done ?

 

[CrowingRooster]

Still 161 needed. These two and Adnan are going to have to step up.

 

[Electron]

We could be in trouble if Zimbo pick another one here !

 

[Red Devil]

I can't understand Pakistan's problem. Their bowling looks good, batting looks decent with YK, Misbah and other average players; Why do they struggle in test matches so much?

Beats me

 

[Sledger]

Edged past slip. Lucky runs.

 

[CrowingRooster]

Edged and gone for four.

 

[Red Devil]

We could be in trouble if Zimbo pick another one here !

I thought you were an Indian.

 

[imshally81]

:44

 

[hur rizvi]

I can't understand Pakistan's problem. Their bowling looks good, batting looks decent with YK, Misbah and other average players; Why do they struggle in test matches so much?

Pathetic batting line-up and a very average bowling line-up...

No test class batsman barring YK and no test class bowler barring ajmal, Pakistan away from asia is a below average test team

 

[HASHAM2]

Pakistan need 155 more runs
and only 6 wickets left

 

[Ims1]

just 157 to win now .....

 

[Sandeep]

Dont think he'll be able to do that...

He is under too much pressure, his place in the team is under question..

Somehow he looks the most temperamental of Pakistan batsmen (young) to me

ok,if he does not ,you shall call me Sir Ims1 . In the unlikely event that he remains not out & wins the game, i shall call you Sir Sandy . done ?

Very tricky..Ok, bet!

 

[hur rizvi]

We could be in trouble if Zimbo pick another one here !

We are under trouble already, It's 70-30 in favour of zimbos

 

[doctordamor]

hahhahah
Rao Jee ‏@raoo512 1m

Last time Zimbabwe beat Pakistan……Nawaz Sharif was prime minster. #manhoos

 

[hur rizvi]

Shafiq looking edgy

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Marked...Let's see

Itz a certain .!!!!. Misbah would score a max of 50-55 runs and then gets out.. he can't win us a match and has never won it and never will

Only if we can pull off a miracle, then it should be a gutsy innings from Asad although I have dont have much hope in it, seeing his form)

 

[Hitman]

No matter who wins, Zimbabwe has shown that they can become a decent team in a couple of years, like they were in the 90's.

 

[Buffet]

It's only 150 runs. One big partnership and Pakistan will get close. Important is to not get bogged down and score if there is a bad ball.

 

[imshally81]

Pakistan require another 154 runs with 6 wickets remaining in 110 overs

 

[Sandeep]

Pathetic batting line-up and a very average bowling line-up...

No test class batsman barring YK and no test class bowler barring ajmal, Pakistan away from asia is a below average test team

Junaid Khan, Rehman, Ajmal are test class; YK,Misbah, Hafeez (yes, he is one of your classiest ATM) are good batsmen.. Maybe they need some flair in the form of Umar/Kamran Akmal

 

[Ims1]

Somehow he looks the most temperamental of Pakistan batsmen (young) to me



Very tricky..Ok, bet!

You are on- sari zindagi bolna hoga . chal shafiq out ho ja

 

[Sledger]

Another quiet over..

 

[HASHAM2]

Bowl will start keeping so low
as bowl get old

 

[MJcricket]

Can ZIM get remaining six wickets for 154 runs?

 

[GreenKnightRises]

We are under trouble already, It's 70-30 in favour of zimbos

No. Its 99-1 in favor of Zimbos.. Only hope is a miracle

 

[soso_killer]

Lol, this is interesting game. Who is rooting for Zimbabwe?

 

[bigdaddymiandad]

Misbah the lone ranger willl guide us home. have faith in Misbah.

 

[Sandeep]

I agree, Misbah is an average test player, he has a habit of throwing away starts in test cricket..

 

[mithun_minhas]

Hafeez is blocking some youngsta beauty's spot in the Test squad.

 

[Noobosauras]

Lol, this is interesting game. Who is rooting for Zimbabwe?

Go Zimbos

 

[HASHAM2]

 

[Ims1]

No. Its 99-1 in favor of Zimbos.. Only hope is a miracle

pk is the fave on betting sites . stop the propaganda .

 

[Sandeep]

Shafiq, please stay at the crease.. Our reputation is at stake

 

[Sledger]

What a ball.

 

[HASHAM2]

Unplayable ball

 

[CrowingRooster]

Good ball by Vitori.

 

[doctordamor]

how the hell that missed the bat

 

[Aman]

Shafiq is rubbish against inswing

 

[Osman]

asad still not learning from his mistakes

 

[imshally81]

No. Its 99-1 in favor of Zimbos.. Only hope is a miracle

You are so optimistic

 

[hur rizvi]

Beauty from vitori...

Replace Utseya with Chatara and an early dinner for Asad looks a clear possibility

 

[Sledger]

Shafiq finding this angle hard.

 

[Asif321]

asad needs to step up

 

[HASHAM2]

Inside edge this time
Asad has technique problem

 

[bigdaddymiandad]

If Chatara and Panyangara can cause so much trouble imagine what Dale Steyn will do to this lineup in the upcoming series

 

[Osman]

yet again failing to cover the ball....do our young players even work on their flaws....obviously not....what is Whatmore doing as coach???? sack this waste of space asap

 

[Sledger]

Beaten again.

 

[CrowingRooster]

And again.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Asad Shafiq is being tested.

Will he rise up to the occasion like a man?

 

[hur rizvi]

The way vitori is bowling game may be over today

 

[MJcricket]

Vitori seems like a much better bowler than Junaid Khan.

 

[HASHAM2]

Asad what wrong yar

 

[Osman]

pathetic batting

 

[hur rizvi]

Vitori bowling beautifully...

 

[Ims1]

Asad Shafiq is being tested.

Will he rise up to the occasion like a man?

he is playing so much away from the body . Cant even be called fishing, fly swatting

 

[Asif321]

khurram was only one positive ... he should have played longer

 

[HASHAM2]

Vitori seems like a much better bowler than Junaid Khan.

Indians dont like Junaid
i know
bcz Junaid Destoryed India in india

 

[imshally81]

Asad Survived...

 

[hur rizvi]

Asad Shafiq is being tested.

Will he rise up to the occasion like a man?

No chance can see either his middle stump knocked over or caught behind in next few overs

 

[soso_killer]

Shafiq, please stay at the crease.. Our reputation is at stake

i always thought you were from India

 

[HelicopterShot]

Pakistan in trouble now, and no Inzamam to save them like in 2003 either

 

[Sandeep]

Indians dont like Junaid
i know
bcz Junaid Destoryed India in india

blah blah blah.. back to the match
