First Test-- Pakistan vs Australia at Perth (Bharaas merged)

Khalil gone lol

One more gone for Anda!!!Kalil quite a debut yaar.

worst Paki team ever...dil chaha raha hai keh khul kar jootay maaroun...

shob is playing very sensible ... he has already played 3 balls. wow

and we have made 3 runs since younis got out ... wow

impressive.

wiktain barh rahee hain laiken runs nahein. what a site.

shabash "Khali"l.

I am already sleepy. Damn I will miss Salman’s innings. I hope someone record it. You guys enjoy the second innings in 30 minutes.

:k:

I guess we were all follish to think that a team which could not chase 93 to win against a B rates first class team could bounce back strongly.

And those who advocated 'specialist keeper' take your kamloo up ur ...&*&

For second test, if I were the captain, I would have gone for this setup.

Farhat out
Kamal out
Razzaq out

-Six Batoo (3 with some brains)
Salman
Taufeeq (he is a call away)++
Asim Kamal++
Younis Khan
Inzi
Yoyo
-Five full time bowlers (no damn alrounder, batting is reponsiblity of the aboves)
Sami+
Akhtar
Keneria
khalil/Asif (take ur pic)
Rana+

++ Keepers (not worse than kamloo atleast)
+ supporting batsmen (don't count on them, as allrounders)

Well I agree on Taufiq. Meeda (hameed) is out of form so no point risking him. I am not sold on Asim Kamal but I guess he is our only option. I would like to see Shoaib Malik. Kamalo and Farhana are definately out.

[/QUOTE]

You are so obsessessed with Taufiq that its not even realistic. Do you REALLY expect him to succeed in australian pitches on the back of poor form when he couldnt do so at home agsint india with some good innings behind him??

Well if he doest get a recall, i hope he succeed. Secondly he went to BD to play there instead of playing domestic so that would harly please PCB.

EDIT: Mind you i am not against Taufiq in anyway. I am/was a fan of Taufiq and with his gutsy innings against South Africans but when he is short of form and confidence he is as horrible as any other opener we have. Damn he made Balaji a star.

are we still batting?

nope i think TAUFEEQ is the best opener paki can have right now and i m including salman butt all he needs a lil confidence from management. and he should call back. and i m big fan of his batting.

Total (1 wicket, 55.4 overs) 212
DAMN I WISH WE WERE PLAYING AGAINST BANGLADESH...

I truly feel sorry for Bobby. I mean there is nothing the poor fellow can do. Same goes for Javed or any other coach who ever tried giving advice to the likes of Razaq, Khan and YoYo. Throwing away your wickets when your team is in dire straits. These fellows should be put in front of a bowling maching going at 160 mph. Seriously
I dont blame Kamran or Butt, we threw them in the deep end and somehow expected them to perform. Not happening.

i still dont get this. wattaa hell is going on in dressing that everyone is in so huryy to back in there. DAMIT U R PLAYING TEST AND AGAIN ******* AUSIS . watttaa hell is wrong with our player we should have separate one day and test team.

i think i ought to change my interests :bummer:

Butt is okay but kamran has not shown us a glimpse of anything so far. i mean he is worse than the tailenders. He need sto atleast average 20-30 runs per innigs but so far he has not done that.

moin would have anchored paki innings :(
