2nd Test Pakistan Vs. South Africa - Feb. 14, 2013, Newlands, Capetown RSA

Re: 2nd Test Pakistan Vs. South Africa - Feb. 14, 2013, Newlands, Capetown RSA

SA 326 all out.

Peterson played a blinder just like Tanvir. Still SA have not dominated Pak in this test, considering they are the number one team in the world with the best bowling attack.

Well played Pak so far. Now score around 250/300 and the match is ours.

Still a lead of 12 :D

Re: 2nd Test Pakistan Vs. South Africa - Feb. 14, 2013, Newlands, Capetown RSA

Now Pakistani openers are going to have a fourth try at the new ball under more asian like conditions,.....there is really no excuse now for them to not be able to negotiate the new ball session and survive. At least one of them needs to bat through.

**Lead lead hoti hai. 12 runs ki ho ya 120 runs ki.

Re: 2nd Test Pakistan Vs. South Africa - Feb. 14, 2013, Newlands, Capetown RSA

Misbah’s captaincy reminded me of Yousuf’s captaincy in Sydney Test 2009 :sadaf:

Re: 2nd Test Pakistan Vs. South Africa - Feb. 14, 2013, Newlands, Capetown RSA

Now all the advantage is gone and is one all for Pak and SA

Whoever bats well and with a good pace will win the match

Uncle you can see the they both missed two straight balls ......at this level u cant miss those .......Hafeez needs to come down the order or else get dropped

Re: 2nd Test Pakistan Vs. South Africa - Feb. 14, 2013, Newlands, Capetown RSA

Inshallah.

But the thing is our bowlers, fielders and captain should have tried and done better in the first session or so. We have a psychological problem with our team (batting, more so), and with a 100 runs lead they’d have been on top. Now with the advantage gone, all rests on a good batting performance.

And we all know they rarely occur for this team. I mean we have the worst keeper of all time, particularly when it comes to batting. A lot rests on one or two players, and in a crunch situation like this, if they deliver, we make a match out of it, if they don’t in the 2nd innings, we’ll be done. Much more aggressive captaincy - and much more lethal bowling was needed to turn things our way.

Let’s see nevertheless, I’m not the one to lose hope, like ever. But this SA team at home will smell blood now.

Re: 2nd Test Pakistan Vs. South Africa - Feb. 14, 2013, Newlands, Capetown RSA

For the next match I would swap Hafeez for Rehman and open with Azhar.

Re: 2nd Test Pakistan Vs. South Africa - Feb. 14, 2013, Newlands, Capetown RSA

Agreed Azhar can open and Tanvir out for Junaid!
