A very low profile series.

But DC6, you were supposed to start fantasy league :snooty:

I expect a drawn series.

Re: 1st Test :Pakistan v Sri Lanka 18th-22Oct 2011

true that,

that is why Misbah opted to field, so that Srilankans can bat for 2+ days and then Pakistan can stall

Re: 1st Test :Pakistan v Sri Lanka 18th-22Oct 2011

Why did Misbah chose to field first on a flat wicket with a good spin bowler and fast bowler who can reverse ????

Re: 1st Test :Pakistan v Sri Lanka 18th-22Oct 2011

Sri Lanka RR 1.93

SL doing its bit to bore down the few who r watching this :smack:

Re: 1st Test :Pakistan v Sri Lanka 18th-22Oct 2011

I bet Mohsin sb had something to do with it. The brilliant new coach. and so far it is proving to be a stupid decision.

Re: 1st Test :Pakistan v Sri Lanka 18th-22Oct 2011

It looks like our Batters need atleast 2-3 innings to find some rythem and then in the Last Test of a Series the Team is cobfident enough to Attack … works only if the a Test Series consists of atleast 3 Tests :smack:

Re: 1st Test :Pakistan v Sri Lanka 18th-22Oct 2011

5.5
Saeed Ajmal to Thirimanne, OUT, Poor shot, lovely catch. Guided straight to slip. That’s the coach’s job when the fielding practice is on. Quicker, flatter, straighter one, Lahiru leans back to stylishly guide to slip, and Younis takes a smooth low catch

**HDRL Thirimanne c Younis Khan b Saeed Ajmal 20 (69b 0x4 0x6) SR: 28.98 **
