Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Good Going, Thank Allah swt we will avoid follow on, InshAllah we will score 450+.

We will score at least 100 more runs, even if we start a little collapse...that wud leave us 138 runs behind, hmm not 2 bad, but I think we shud be able to cross 450 runs InshAllah.

I thought you were rooting for England.

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

On a sidenote here, I think Kamran's place in the batting order needs to reconsidered. I would definitely rate him above Afridi in terms of reliability. And on current form, I would have sent him in before Razzaq. It's just that Afridi and the likes are much more effective when there is a platform already in place, rather than making one themselves.

I would hate to see Akmal stranded with Kaneria and Gul, because that will definitely not last long.

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

I'm confused...dont take anything I say when a match is going on seriously...I have a habit to be 2 pessimistic.

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

I agree, Kamran definitely needs to come before Afridi. He is a fine batsmen and him playing with sami and Kaneria is not the right way to take advantage of his talent.

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

I agree with your proposal but not with your reasons. I do think both Akmal and Razzaq should be sent in before Afridi, but not because Afridi is not as reliable as Akram (his average is higher than Akmal's), but because certain situations demand a batsman to occupy the crease and help the other batsman occupy it too. Afridi has been scoring good runs in test matches, reliably too, but he doens't spend much time at the crease while scoring those runs.

The situation we are in today, demands that the batsmen stay at the wicket, and build partnerships, so Razzaq and Akmal are better coming in before Afridi. However, if we needed some quick runs, Afridi could come in too.

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

How much do they need to get to avoid follow-on? I think 328. Right?

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Let me give you another thought to be pessimistic about. If you keep this up, it's going to be my chittar and your ass!

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

329.

Oooi babay, khuwari chari hai tenu?

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

One good thing about the new ball: At least we'll be getting our runs scoring quickly. Both Razzaq and Youhana have had to come in at number 3, or when many more wickets were down and the ball still new, so I think (rather, hope) that they should be able to handle the new ball rather well.

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Pak 300/5 :jhanda:

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

I hope Akmal is sent in instead of Afridi.

637

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Yes, Akmal is in.

638

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

So much for Razzaq's technique. Akmal in, good call by Pakistan.

639

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Both Akmal and Yousuf now need to stay till the end of the day.
