There will be a result in this match. Write it on the walls (as Lala Amarnath would have put it), this match is going to end in a result.

This is what I predict;
End of Day 3 - Pakistan all out 475, India 80 for 2 (deficit erased)
End of Day 4 - India all out 320, Pakistan 35 for 1 (Target: approx. 240)
Day 5: Pakistan all out 220 thereby losing by 20 odd runs.

Why do I get the feeling that Aejaz bhai is as happy as we are when Pakistan performs…

Ha Ha Ha Funguy Bhai,

In your dreams, yes I do Appreciate good performance, specially in Cricket, remember Ek Baar aap ne hi mujhe Urdu me cricket ka slave kaha tha, I am thinking lekin urdu translation yaad nahi aa raha.

So lets get this straight
India /Pakistan= India should win
India /anyone else= India should win
Pakistan/anyone else= Pakistan should win,

So now you know, so if pakistan draw or lose from here, ha ha ha aap logo ki tou7 khair nahi:D

Thus, Pakistan need to score 550 to win this match. The 20 run loss can be converted into 3 wicket win if they pile on 550 tomorrow and first session day 4.

Kiun, dast chchoot gaya naa!

I am telling you Pakistani fans… come down to earth. Just two good sessions don’t translate into winning or drawing a match. I am sure India will bounce back one more time in this match. Let’s not forget we are still in 134 deficit.

I think at best this match is 50/50 right now. And the only thing that tilts it in India’s favor is that Pakistan has to bat LAST on this dusty track. Bhajji and Kumble must be drooling in their dreams. If I was a punter, I would put my money on India winning this one.

@smooth_guy

Superb innings by 2Ys. I hope this will help YK gain much needed confidence to boost our batting in the remaining innings in the series as well as the ODI series.

Tomorrow should be a fast scoring day after the half session in the morning. In the first 30 overs before lunch we should equalize the score, only 140 needed. After lunch we should unleash Inzimam/Razzaq on Balaji and Co and make quick 180-220 runs by the end of the day.

Now on forth day, India will see a difficult task. Since they will have to make 200+300 to draw this game and if they couldn’t make 500, they can’t save their 10 wickets in two days either. Pakistan’s strategy should be (if everything went as the plan) to get Indian’s out within 350 by the lunch time on fifth day. This will give them a task of 150 with two full sessions remaining.

I can’t believe myself, I have hopes of winning this match mashallah Even I won’t be disappointed with a draw either, I am keeping my expectation low for this series anyways.

Awwww. Thank God you posted an awesome post without mentioning Taufeeq even once

Re: 2nd Test - Pakistan vs India - Kolkata (Merged)

if Pakistan can manage to bat all day tomorrow that'd mean adding another 320+ runs (273+320=593.... 593-407=186 that means India'll bat 4th day. If India plays all 4th day and part of 5th day they might have a lead of 154, which is possible to achieve. But again, these are my assumptions. Teams can add 350+ runs a day easily on batting tracks. It all depends how Pakistani batsmen manage their innings tomorrow.
