No not just against Pakistan but any team.
I’m not saying that the umpires are biased but now days they seem to make more mistakes than before.

If Hayden is smart he should wait for hitting a 6 against another bowler, his team has been humiliated by Akhtar so many times, he doesn’t want to be another victim.

Akhtar is a "naajook" bowler... Waqar should rest him for a while if he wants to have Akhtar play in the next test/series.

I think Waqar is handling Akhtar quite nicely, he is only making him bowl short spells, which is good, so he doesn't get tired.
Any bowler bowling 150+ almost ever single delivery ought to become "najook" in this hot weather.

play to start shortly and lets see why the run rate was slow, the
outfield is slow and
The heat horrid, Aus needed to conserve energy and, the ball is not
coming onto the bat and the pak bowlers were bowling a tight line
too
Gilchrist took a risk and paid, ball was outside off and he tried
to force it but was early and edged
Another point that may make pak fans feel better is that the
fielding in this test has been very good and spirited, chasing the
ball down and diving around
The quick bowling changes tend to cause batters to take a look,
Hayden did the needful, anchoring the innings

**83.2 Saqlain Mushtaq to Warne, OUT: flighted and Warne goes for a drive,
a puff of dust and ball edged to Younis Khan at slip, holds on
after a fumble or two

**

Finally :rolleyes:

8 down.

88.1 Abdur Razzaq to Lee, OUT: an inswinger, went back and rapped, ball low too and ump Venkat finds no fault

Whats taking them so long, the past 2 innings, the tale gave no worries to our bowlers, why are they not taking wickets at faster rate.
Why is Waqar not keeping Shoaib on for more than 2 or 3 overs.

lets see what our batsmen can do now....

not that i am very hopeful... but who knows....

Please Waqar uncle, do not send Imran Nazir to open!
Please send Mizbah and Taufeeq.

Its amazing that Waqar didn't send Younis Khan to keep but instead he sent Taufeeq, poor guy would be really tired by now and he has to open.
Younis comes in the middle, and he is a decent keeper as well.

Oh well, lets see how we bat.

what do u think in how much time will they start batting...

Taufeeq and Imran Nazir in for a bat

Ya-Allah Rahim kerna!!!

In couple minutes, innings break is about 5 minutes.

Rashid Latif is out with hamstring injury and may miss the next test, I think this is the only chance for Moin Khan to comeback and to prove his form and gain back his spot and also gain the captaincy. Couple months ago, I would have disagreed with that statement but for the past couple months I have seen Waqar make some reckless decisions, if Moin can gain back form I think the captaincy should be handed to him and Waqar should be sacked not only as the captain but also as a player.
