Re: Pak V England - First test Match

I wonder why we don't have a single close in catcher now since England is already on a defensive. Silly captain once again :(

He should probably try a different bowler from oen end now since there is no point continuing with these if there is no catcher other than the lone slip fielder

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

We need to get this Bell guy out. He always plays well against Pakistan. Duchebag.

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

First FOUR for a while, Straus flick one towards fine leg for FOUR and was lucky that the next one falls in the no man's land with a leading edge

Strauss on 92*

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

There is no urgency from England as yet so we might very well have a draw if England continues at the same rate

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Ghattia over-throw from Afridi. Costs Pakistan 4 extra runs, 5 in total. Helps Strauss move onto 98*

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Strauss is now on 99*

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Current partnership 57 runs, 19.1 overs, rr: 2.97 (Strauss 29, Bell 28)

England scoring 40 in the last 9 overs. Captaaan saab so rahay hain hamaray!

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Chance for a runout. Thats close. Lets wait for the verdict

truelies · July 16, 2006, 2:56pm

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

BOY OH BOY. Captaaan saab bura mana gaey. Brilliant work from Inzi catches Bell napping instead, direct hit causes the runout. Bell is out for 28

ENG 203/5 ... Lead 286

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

A few quick wickets and we'll definitely be in with a fair chance

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Strauss back on strike on 99 .. end of the over :) Koi aur hai bhai? forum so kiun raha hai?

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

What a sonrter from Afridi to Jones. A peach really

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Well the target is closing in on 300, a tough ask. Pakistan will need to start batting by the end of today or the start tomorrow morning if they want to have a chance at winning.

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

100 up for Strauss and he becomes only the 3rd English skipper to score a century in the first test as captain

truelies · July 16, 2006, 3:18pm

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Doesn't look like the same test we had after the first couple of days. Pakistan definitely needs a couple of wicket now. 18 overs to go in the day

truelies · July 16, 2006, 3:19pm

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

FOUR just past the slip fielder. Lead is now 300 with Farhat bowling. Whats Inzi aiming for ?

truelies · July 16, 2006, 3:21pm

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

Phew, finally some sensible change. Gul into the attack

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

I think they are going for a draw now. I doubt they will declare today.

a1kashur · July 16, 2006, 3:29pm

Re: Pak V England - First test Match

All of a sudden every one forgot how to catch the ball or what? especially Farhat.
Gul bowling nice line and length.
