yarr appreciate karo what we have....2 for 7 was not looking good...
this tuk tuk is just fine..consolidate consolidate....
I agree with you 7 for 2 to 100 for 3 is a big deal.
Talking about strategy, I don't think rotating strike is that bad of a strategy afterall. None of the Pakistani batsmen have negotiated the new ball well..We have another 40 odd over before the new ball and a long tail. Let's see if we can take this to day 5

very disappointed to see SA crossing 200 (and then reducing lead to 12 only ), I don’t know if it was wicket deterioration our our captaincy/bowling/fielding deterioration which allowed SAffies to recover to 300+ Openers continue to disappoint, glad to see Azhar Ali finally getting some runs but I think he will prove to be another ‘South Asian’ player who can play only slower/drier pitches hopefully he will learn and improve from here on.

i have to agree .. from 110 to 5, we let them score 330 … we lost a golden chance to win this test match…instinct to go for that final punch is always missing in our team…
so far the first session in this series has always produced wickets and my sense is that Pakistan may be bundled for 200. …our tail is awfully long coz of an incompetent WC batsman but lets hope for the best

I dare Pakistan team management to send Tanvir if either one of Azhar and Misbah get out before the new ball is taken! He may be able to accelerate the run rate since he was timing steyn ad philander the most with the old ball.
