Play finishes for the day.
SA 140/3. A lead of 70 runs.
The day belonged to SA.
They were virtually out of the match at the start of the day and have come right back thanks to a poor show by our middle order. Before the start of this match I said that Pakistan will have to bat SA out of this match, they have fialed to do so and might well have to pay the penalty.
Let's see what tomorrow brings.
Kirsten is the key wicket for us.
lets hope that pak can restrict the target to around 200…
otherwise… :nono:
All 3 LBWs...that means tight bowling...but still some bowlers gave away lots on runs...

what kind of commentary is that...
39.6 Mushtaq Ahmed to Kirsten, no run
39.5 Mushtaq Ahmed to Kirsten, no run
39.4 Mushtaq Ahmed to Kirsten, no run
39.3 Mushtaq Ahmed to Kirsten, two runs, cut it to deep cover
39.2 Mushtaq Ahmed to Smith, one run
39.1 Mushtaq Ahmed to Smith, no run
are these cricinfo commentator tired of typing, or some one like Sohail is dictting them..
[/QUOTE]
and checkout the commentary being done for the Ind Aus match. 4 - 5 lines of commentary for every ball the Indians play....
InshAllah we will win
Match is still wide open. Great Fight back by South Africa and Pakistani defintely threw away a great position. Mushtaq was disappointing today and amazingly for me Shoaib Malik was the pick of the bowelrs alongwith Shabbir.
Lets Hope Kirsten is dismissed ASAP tomorrow and we restrict the target under 200.
wat abt the injury to malik? is he alrite or he is still suffering? n wat abt kamal?
Pakistan openers stake claim

The future looks bright for Pakistan with Taufeeq and Farhat up top
Taufeeq Umar and Imran Farhat believe they can become one of Pakistan’s all-time great opening partners.
The left-handers scored their third successive century stand together against South Africa to put Pakistan in a strong position in the second Test.
Pakistan have searched hard for a dependable opening pair since the days of Aamir Sohail and Saeed Anwar.
“We feel we are confident and capable enough of resolving this problem and being around a while,” Taufeeq said.
Taufeeq and Umar added a stand of 137 to their first-Test efforts of 109 and 134 as Pakistan reached 237-2 to trail South Africa by 41 runs in Faisalabad.

I want to make a permanent place in the team and hope this series would go a long way in resurrecting my career
Taufeeq has scored two hundreds and three fifties in four Tests against South Africa.
After reaching 123 not out - his maiden Test hundred - Farhat said he and his partner wanted to emulate the feats of Sohail and Anwar.
“They were the best opening pair to play for Pakistan and we are inspired to emulate them,” he said.
“We can make this slot our own.”
Since the retirement of Sohail in 2000, Taufeeq has had eight different opening partners in 17 Tests.
Farhat, who was recalled to the team for the current series after one year on the sidelines, said playing against Australia in 2002 had helped him.
“Last year when I played against them in Sharjah against McGrath and Shane Warne, I realised to survive in international cricket I needed to change my attitude and adjust my technique accordingly,” he explained.
"After that series I became more serious about my batting and have cut out the risky shots.
“I try to concentrate harder now and keep a value on my wicket. I did that today.”
The deeds of Farhat and Taufeeq against the hapless South African bowlers have seen them become the first Pakistan opening pair to post century stands in three consecutive Test innings.
