Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad *Jan21 - Jan 25 2006*

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

indians were playing for draw too .. they were not any better either. but argh :mad:

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

Hopefully, Younis will unleash the beast now that he has another ton against Indians under his belt. There is no use to try and play defensive now, is it? Why are we not going for the quick runs? Who in their right mind would send in Yousuf and Younis before Afridi, when we clearly had the upper edge this morning?

Christ, Yousuf is playing with such a defensive mindset that it is unbearable to watch.

awesome :k:

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

younis could well have had 6, 84 no and 83 in this match 1st innings, incredible! but this match is heading for a draw!

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

Next up...Yousuf's Century...I am holding my breath.

I think me and all the guppies here need a life.

i'm amazed by crowd's enthusiasm. amazed in literal meaning, no sarcasm - just in case if anyone's wondering.

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

Indians were on the backfoot because they were batting second and up against a huge total. Obviously the goal was to first make sure that they dont lose.

How difficult is it to understand that.

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

Now if one of these two could get out, we could have some excitement..I think this must be the first time the majority of the crowd must be praying for a Pakistani wicket to fall!!!

Exactly what I pointed out earlier in my post. The entire atmosphere (to us at home) feels like that of a WC qualifier. I loved it this morning when there was "Jeevay Pakistan" being sung from corner to corner at Iqbal Stadium.

First ball by Kumble, pull shot, Yousuf dispatched it for four.

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

younis is a guttless player... you would think after getting his 100 he would go after the ball.

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006


for 2 days?

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

not difficult at all. I'm talking about the tactics used even after they were pretty much secure .. the point when they needed to act. Like we do now! some people will still think that it's a risk.

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

gutless? lol,

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

India was saving the match, Pakistan has no such challenge… :slight_smile:

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

yes for 2 days…

if the Indians had been dismissed before the 4th day…this match would have been Pakistan’s for the taking.

Like I said - India’s goal was to first ensure that they did not lose.

Re: Pakistan vs India 2nd Test Match @ Faisalabad Jan21 - Jan 25 2006

Weren’t they … :confused:
