Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
Well played Matt Prior for his 50. I think they should declare now. How much more embarrassing do they want the defeat to be? Already looking at a defeat by 200 runs approx. England lead by 369 runs with 3 wickets remaining
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
Why do our bowlers have trouble getting rid of the tail enders? This is very frustrating. Partnership of 50 in 8 overs. :no:
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
^ That's the same case for England, its not like they skittled our tail enders any quicker.
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
kamran akmal taking catch of anderson . so it is 9 down for 213 but score already out of reach

Why doesnt Butt bring on Aamir or Asif for the No.11 batsmen instead of Umar Amin and Shoaib Malik. Both part timers.
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
perhaps his reasoning is they've bowled alot during the 2 innings and need the rest, the team can't constantly be relying on them 2 to get em out of jail everytime.

Just what I was thinking. This makes no sense. Have your best fast bowlers operate to get rid of the tailenders.. not part timers !!!!
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
Again...Pakistan got some 400+ runs to chase in 2 days time...but some of Pak batsmen have trouble on staying on the crease...
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
Zed, R Raja was saying the same thing is commentary this morning, that our batsmen still have the one day match mentality when taking to the crease and that they need to learn to occupy crease time and have that temperament of perhaps being at the crease for hours on end to build a score, hope they learn from this match for the coming 3 games.
Pakistan's body language doesn't look good. Have they lost before even batting?
We know what Australiaism is...are we seeing Pakistanism
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
They perhaps know that overturning this in near on impossible, i'd be happy that they just get some much needed crease time and iA not lose by say 250 runs.
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
I think they will declare after Prior's 100
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
I think Salman Butt is making fool of himself by keep giving the ball to Kaneria...
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
Looks like Prior got the green light to go for his shots and get his hundred soon so they can declare. Prior is not afraid to take single and give Finn the strike because of the part time bowler Malik and ineffective Kaneria.
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
Now Prior is only one shot away from his century and the declaration. 94 not out.
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
i think foir the coming 3 matches, butt should drop Kaneria as there's no need for spin on these pitches and play four seamers, agree?
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
Orph.. nah man.. get Ajmal in.. he is much much better..
Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2
Pakistan should add one more seamer to their team...
