Moin Khan was brilliant, and Azhar Mahmood came out and blasted in the end.
I paid 50 bucks for this whole tour and every cent is worth.
Moin Khan saves Pakistan, again!
72 not out!

im just gonna use what tony greig always says, "its all happening out there, Pakisttttaaannnn, wat a comeback!"
yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa baby, man i just hope Sami and shabbir deliver some "gul's" i wish younis khan would have been in the side he had a great record in nz!
hai koi hum jaisaa 
moin khan is the best.. but azhar mehmood also did great :k:
At one point, Pakistan were 84/5 when Moin Khan joined Inzi, and after few good partnerships, it was all Moin Khan, and also some very good batting by Razzaq and Azhar.
But in serious note, Moin Khan should have been given out to Styris after the ball touched his gloves and went to McCullum, and a very bad decision by the umpire but moin played spendedly.
I was thinking more of 175 being a good total, but this is more then enough, and if the pitch behaves anything like it did in the first 30 overs, New Zealand should be restricted for less then 200.
These damn Pakistanis lol they love to tease their fans, they love to get cursed at for 40 ovrs and then let every1 kiss there ass for last 10 ovrs, i just hope we didnt get too happy and dont bowl well! I always tell every1 they say moin suks and rashid is better, moin is inded a streetfighter a a recent columnist called him, in a crisis situation just call on him!
Recent Overs: 2 1 6 1 1 1 | 1W 4 2 1 2 1 | 6 1 4 Y2 1 6 1 | 4 4 . 1 4 1 |
that would be incredible, if Pakistan menages to win this one.
some1 was posting score everytime a Pak batsman was getting out, once Pakistan started to hit nz bowlers all over the ground, he was no where to be seen.
still na... we should score sumwhr near 300 runs.. itne classis batsmen hone ke bawajood it looks like a one man show :s
now we must win this game with the absense of shoib akhter :S
Good total by Pak. However, the fact remains that Pakistan had a terrible start. I cannot understand why Pakistan openers have been failing to perform for so long. It's been years since I've seen consecutive solid performance by the top order Pakistani batsmen.
I wish Pakistan can somehow fix this problem, as well as the number extras that they concede.
lolz.. this happens all the time.. i cant wait for indo pak series when all indians and pakistanis will be under 1 thread 
yeah… i rmeme how saeed anwar and amir sohail used to score 65-75 in first 15 overs

Actually it was a very good start given by the Pakistani batsman.
They scored like 47 runs in first 9 overs on a very seaming pitch, it was the middle order who failed to captalize.
A score of 225 is a 260 on a regular track, so Pakistan is in a very good situation, unless our bowlers throw it away.
saadia i guess you werent watching recent matches, the top order was the back bone, the last four one day matches before this 1, pakistan opening pair had a partnership of over 100 and both of openers averaged over 70 i think, they played well today but they threw thier wicket away!
i am very dissapointed with shoaib i dont know if its his fault or what but he seems to get himslef injured or banned for the start of like every series!
Xpress: Still...Pakistan did lose it's first three wickets quite early in the game.
Pakistan_1: You're sorta right. I got very busy with college, so I occasionally checked the scoreboard. But I still believe that it hasn't been the same as it was when A.Sohail and S.Anwar used to open for Pakistan.
