3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

Looks like those decisions are going to cost us big time. I was so pissed I couldn't even bring myself to sit down and type. Who wants to bet how many "unlucky" decisions will go in favor of Pakistan when we go out to bat?

This sort of biased BS ruins the game.

$&*£! :frusty2:

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

Yes goneeeeee, cook gone

justice partially served before lunch

England at lunch, 109-3, could have been definitely 4 or more.
Highlights of the session, haywire sami, brilliant Nazir and SHAMEFUL umpiring

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

Cook gone! The idiot actually has the nerve of shaking his head and standing his ground. If i was the bowler I would have grabbed the bat from his hands and given him a good whack.

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

:yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

it should have been 4 outs by now

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

No justice not even partially served.

( a) because KP is still there

(b) 80/4 is just too different from 150/4. NOt the same thing. I hope we do win this match, so that we get a free pass to criticize the umpiring and bring this issue up everywhere.

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

26.1 Umar Gul to Cook, OUT, gone. A leading edge, trying to work that to square, and Gul takes an easy return catch. A soft dismissal but a jubilant Pakistan deserved that; they have got their man at last. High tens all round… and that’s lunch
**AN Cook c & b Umar Gul 23 (32b 4x4 0x6) sr: 71.87

Umpires 3 out of 10. :nook: Blind biased bats.

The score could so easily have been 90-4. Sooooooo frustrating. Anyways lets hope we get poetic justice in this game.

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

cricinfo summary:

A morning of two halves, with Pakistan turning the passage right around. Trescothick and Strauss were in full control for England but they fell soon after the drinks break. Then Cook and Pietersen tried to rebuild, but both sent thick inside edges through to the keeper. Yet both were turned down, much to the amazement and consternation of an understandably riled Pakistan. Their bowlers continued to plug away, however, and they finally got Cook in the last over before lunch.

:hehe:
3 kyo diay :smilestar:
it should b -3 :snooty:

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

I know it is frustrating yar, but count your blessings, atleast the current score is better than two wickets down with both "muftas" on crease which could have been more frustrating

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

this is how first test started....decisions don't go out way and then centuries galore. InshAllah we will get sum justice next sessions and when we bat.

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

goray and kalay Umpires Pakistan k khilaaaf kyo hain :hehe:

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

Only Simon Taufel is a good umpire in my book.

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

and what about billy

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

Inshallah I have a feeling God will give us poetic justice. If we can get KP shortly after lunch, we will right back in it. Collingwood and Bell are both due for failures, the law of averages has to prevail!

On the bright side, Kamran Akmal seems back to his best behind the stumps. Those takes were really good considering he was clueless in the past 2 games.

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

he is the most amusing, him and aleem dar r not too far behind Simon Taufel. But Simon Taufel is in a different class altogether.

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

INSHALLAH

not only KP but also collingwood or bell

Pakistani fielders and umpires is baat ko galat b sabit kar saktay hain :hehe:

Agar kamran ke batting form b wapis a jaiay to kia baat hay

Re: 3rd Test - Eng vs Pak - Leeds, 4th-8th Aug.

also very decent lookiing person
