Re: Pakistan vs India 3rd Test Match @ Karachi Jan 29 - Feb 2 2006
Sincerely, Captain Lota
considering the defensive mentality, it is higly likely that Pakistan will bat for an hour tomorrow and than will declare around 600, so India could bat for 10-12 overs before lunch. However that will happen only if pakistan scores around 475-500 at stumps today. With Afridi and akmal still to come, you never know how high the run rate will go if both of them will click.
Another reason of not declaring today can be couple of quick wickets as well which could affect the run rate. Lets see, the picture will be more clear after tea.
