Stupid move by India in declaring at this level. The score is achievable with RRR well under 4.
Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2
is there a mufta sopcast or something?
Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2

Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2

Jai Bharath!
Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2
i dont think any ex indian or pakistani captain would have declared
he definitely made a bold move and credit to him for making a tense 5th day
kumble is bold captain.not like timid dravid who was having all initiative in 2nd test in england didnt force follow-on.
Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2
zaheer off the field due to some ankle problem
Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2
Damn, Hameed gone.
I say drop both Hameed and the useless Kaneria for the next game (assuming we atleast salvage a draw today) and bring back Shahid Afridi.
Play Akmal purely as a batsman and have Sarfaraz take over glove work from chotu
Butt
Afridi
Younis
Yousuf
Misbah
Malik (c)
Akmal
Sarfaraz (wk)
Sami
Shoaib
Tanveer
Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2
bails come off and fall back on
pretty cool
Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2
still only one wicket? come on guys!
Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2
**9.2 - **Harbhajan Singh to Kamran Akmal, no run, fuller, on the middle stump, nudged to Dinesh Karthik at short leg who flicks a direct hit at the striker's end but Akmal gets back in time. The left bail went in the air for a split second and somehow managed to go right back in place. Furniture remains undisturbed. No damage done.
Conclusion: gravity_killz. :p

Let's not. :)
Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2

hope we don't get too defensive, because that's like shooting yourself in the foot. PAK batsmen need to rotate the strike in order to keep the pressure on Indian fielders
Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2
this is gonna be a loooong day for pak
Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2

Re: 2nd Test: India v Pakistan at Kolkata - Nov 30-Dec 4, 2
