I think NZL should declare now.This is enough.
The NZ tailenders are playing the PAK bowlers like PAK Z team is bowling. They feel like hitting a boundry bang there it goes. Next thing we wanna see is Vitori’s 200 :k:

May be when Tuffey scores his 50 they'll declare, or may be if wicket starts to change its behavior.
No this is not enough cuz the last nail in cofin is not all the way in yet 
I think they will declare when Vitori hits 200 while typing I see Vitori going for a HUGE SIX :k:
All the specialist bowlers have given 100 or more.
Finally Tuffey is gone… why? 
Tuffey Bowled trying to pull by Umar Gul.
Not a big deal damage is done already. It will be interesting to see how PAK batsmen play I hope they don’t chase every single ball.
Lets see if Butler also scores his highest score.

One time I didn't want to be right! :-(
Arre bhaiyon, not to add mirch to your ghavs, but why the hell was Vettori allowed to make a hundred? And Phlegming...wow, you did well to make him miss his double. At this rate NZ will make 600 and hope to win by an innings. Pakistan's batsmen will have to do some digging in. No fancy shots, no nerves, just gritty defence and judicious shot selection.
Karina, mediocre bowling, is all I can say. Sami having bad day, no other bowler was a threat. Shabbir did some work.

I am being very supportive brudder Teaser, unlike you. I am giving your batsmen valuable advice that Miandad might not give, because he seems to me to be the typical subcontinent type coach like Kapil.:)
Listen, when will the pcb wake up and smell the coffee. Get a firangi coach!

Ah, the Great LEarning Curve that bowlers have to go through on the first day of a match outside home. As long as your batsmen return the favor, it should be ok.

23 left for this.
I think they will declare at tea
common karina.. we had firangi coach before… aur os say koi khaas farq nahi para… plus at that time we had classic players like saeed anwar and waseem akram :halo:
plus we have some players who hardly speaks angraizi.. so its better if we have our desi coach.. jo ke players ki har problems ko samjhay.. ya jisay hamaray players easily communicate karsaakain :halo:
may be its because we are missing shoib malik as well as shoib akhter…

^ I know you are being supportive and I can see it in your previous post and this post. ;)
I guess this innings by NZ has proved what some of my friends had been telling me all the time, i.e. Mohd Sami is only effective when there is pressure being put on the batsmen from the other end; in simple words when u have the likes of shoaib balling with him. I always knew shabbir was highly over-rated. You have to have a weapon like speed or swing to produce breakthru's, line and length wont suffice.
Its a pity that wasim and waqar left so soon not because they would have produced some miraculous results, but they would have taught these new bowlers something u learn only with experience.
