53 runs in the whole session for loss of 2 wickets. Well done. Back to the 'solid' batting!

From cricinfo
Shafiq: “Umar Akmal is the most over rated player, someone calls him Viv Richards, and some INZI—whatever, mentally he is not more than Imran Nazir and Afridi, not even near to Astle.”

Agreed :cobra:

Dilshan to Younis Khan, 3 byes, missed stumping, that has just turned in a mile, lovely ball, flighted and drawing Younis out, and then turning in past the inside edge, he was out of the crease but Kaushal could not collect

They are trying hard to lost the match but Pakistani :BiB:

Adnan: “Quite agree with James, its not the run-rate Pakistan should worry about, instead it should be the catches they need to hang on to in the second innings of SriLanka.”

Herath to Azhar Ali, FOUR, another well-compiled** Test fifty for Azhar Ali** as he beats short fine leg with a whippy sweep from outside leg, will he go on to get the elusive maiden century?

:calp:

Current partnership 105 runs, 36.3 overs, RR: 2.87 (Younis Khan 46, Azhar Ali 55) :clap: :sunnyboy:

Re: Pakistan v Sri Lanka - 2nd Test - 26-30th October 2011

From cricinfo :cobra: Agreed

James: “Not sure what all the run rate complaints are about at this stage. SL bowled well this morning in helpful conditions, and Pakistan needed to make sure they didn’t lose more than 2 wickets (look at Sri Lanka’s innings for what can go wrong if you try to go too fast in the morning). The run rate is going up as these two put a partnership together. What sort of feedback would you have got if Pakistan had lost 4 wickets this morning?” Just imagine, shudder

Re: Pakistan v Sri Lanka - 2nd Test - 26-30th October 2011

Azhar playing good now i want him to score his maiden century and Younis shud score 100 too

Re: Pakistan v Sri Lanka - 2nd Test - 26-30th October 2011

87 runs in 29 overs makes it Pakistan’s session. They still trail by 57 though. Sri Lanka got the big wicket of the settled Younis Khan and another wicket will bring them back in to this.
