Day 3, Test 2 Thread. Pakistan Vs England [22/11/05]

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

England 113-3

Pietersen 4*

Bell 36*


Pakistan leads by 349 runs


Pakistan looking to get England out with a lead of around 150+

[HAFRIDI]

come on pak! early wickets here would really put england on the backfoot

[catwoman]

Hopefully we can get some quick wickets

[pacman]

Yes, we need a good start. Pietersons wicket is the key. He has been out of form, and getting him early will make it more difficult for him in next innings.

[The_Cricket_Devil]

shoaib straying onto legside here 2 runs off deliveries so far

[ECB]

This match belong to Pietersen and Flintoff. No Bias, just prediction

[The_Cricket_Devil]

my prediction: rana will york the crud out of them all :D

[The_Cricket_Devil]

end of over 115-3 England

[Amir]

Why isnt Rana or Sami opening the bowling with Shaoib? Use the early mornign dew and get the ball to swing, when it gets hotter and dustier then turn to spin.

[The_Cricket_Devil]

akmal has hashed an easy stumping!!

[Calamrin]

If Pak get KP and Freddie out then england are lost...... and damn bell should of been out then stumped!!

[The_Cricket_Devil]

this is not good tinker bell gets a life and this coukd be costly

[ECB]

Unlucky Kaneria, mistakes happen Akmal!

[Raz]

Maybe he was surprised by the pace and bounce and line of the delivery because he never had it in his hands until it actually fell to the ground

[The_Cricket_Devil]

miscued pull by pietersen almost does him in gr8 bowling by shoaib here

[Calamrin]

141 to avoid the follow on!
KP will be out well before lunch, lets face it he cant actually bat, he can only slog the ball.

[octavian]

i hope Afridi knocks KP's head off

[octavian]

Shoaib bowling with a lot of fire

[Raz]

i hope Afridi knocks KP's head off

I can confirm The Beast Afridi has vowed revenge against KP.

[The_Cricket_Devil]

danish looking very dangerous here he ism making bell look clueless

[Calamrin]

Kaneria has Bell in all sorts of trouble.

[Raz]

Maybe that was the mystery ball!

[Raz]

Afridi got a huge roar when he fielded that one. The crowd still love him and so do i!

[Raz]

Waqar calling Akmal, Akmul

[Waseem]

Akhtar is bowling one of his best spells in the whole series, Pietersen has no clue what's coming up to him. Slow deliveries, short ones, yorkers, inswinging faster ones.

Pietersen has been fooled by Akhtar on almost 5-6 occassions but he has been the lucky one, let's see how this battle goes.

[Raz]

Well fielded by The Beast, again a huge roar.

[ali kc]

Good Intelligent bowling by Shoaib

[Raz]

Shoaib unlucky again and Pieterson almost played that onto the stumps.

[Calamrin]

Shoaib bowling really fast... at the moment Shoaib>KP and Kaneria>Bell

[Raz]

Pieterson getting frustrated, something's got to give!!

[Raz]

Shoaib having something to say to KP after he takes a single.

[The_Cricket_Devil]

both these batsmen look as if they are gonna get out any second now

[Waseem]

Bell was lucky against Kaneria but Pietersen is far more lucky today, he has played so many miscued pull shots.

[ali kc]

good stuff by shoaib!

[Waseem]

Akhtar should sledge Pietersen more.

[Calamrin]

Akhtar should sledge Pietersen more.

I agree, a bit more good hearted aggression is never a bad thing, and KP will take the bait.

[Raz]

Pieterson pulls Shoaib for 4.

[Calamrin]

i make that 7 miss pulls and 1 that he finally hit.

[Cartman]

maybe someone needs to let pietersen know his hair style is as bad as ganguly's pull shot against fast short pitched bowling.

[Raz]

Kaneria gets a warning for running on the pitch.

[nedian21]

great bowling by 2 of our best bowlers. unlucky not to get a wicket yet. Kami for once spilled an easy stumping. INSHALLAH that wont be too costly. drinks now and I hope lady luck will be on Pakistan side after this break. we need at least 3 wkts b4 lunch

[Re-Verse]

I agree the pressure is building up for England, wickets should fall B4 lunch...

[MIG]

ball is about 50 overs old - time for some good old "mysterious" reverse swing !

[Calamrin]

second warning for Kaneria.... he needs to be careful.

[ali kc]

did anyone see that fat ugly chick whistling !!

Im gona have nightmares

[octavian]

Yeah ali kc.. that was pretty odd

[Ace Base]

I reiterate what I said yesterday:

Match drawn is the most likely scenario.

Even if England bat all day they will be unable to score the 400+ runs required to draw level with Pakistan.

This means they'll have to bat upto at least lunch on the fourth day to be able to set any sort of lead.

What are the chances they'll last another 110 overs?

[Raz]

One more warning and hes out for this innings.

[ECB]

Did Daryl Hair's wife run away with some Spinner? he is usually very strict with them

[Raz]

Kaneria need to be taken off now and replaced. I just hope Inzi gives Afridi a decent spell.

[Calamrin]

LOL Taufel has found a live bullet on the field!!

[pacman]

Yeah, we need to give a spell to Afridi now.

[Raz]

Rana bowling in the low 80's

[asifp]

hair showing that he is out to make sure pakitan lose

[Raz]

Pieterson almost holed out there to Malik.

[ali kc]

LOL Taufel has found a live bullet on the field!!

It was left by Afridi for KP!

[Raz]

It was left by Afridi for KP!

Thats exactly what i was thinking.

[ali kc]

Thats exactly what i was thinking.

Wonder what would happen if it had KP name engraved on it :21: :13:

[Amir]

Why so negative, so quick?

[Raz]

Pieterson starting to find his range.

[Calamrin]

Wonder what would happen if it had KP name engraved on it :21: :13:

It wouldnt bother KP.... hes too busy worrying about how good he looks to notice ;-)

[Raz]

Wonder what would happen if it had KP name engraved on it :21: :13:

Yeah

'To KP from The Beast'

[Raz]

I hope Inzi hasnt gone to sleep again. Kaneria needs to come off now.

[Raz]

Afridi On!!! Oh Boy!!!!

[ali kc]

and the BEAST will have a bowl now!

[Raz]

Afridi vs. KP

[octavian]

"wonder where he would be aiming " botham in Afridi

[octavian]

second 50 for bell, we are doing it for Bell

[Raz]

Botham still going on about the Afridi incident when Bumble and Allot were talking about forgetting everything that happened yesterday and starting afresh.

[MIG]

Pak need some inpiration - I have a feeling that we may be playing with a "chip on shoulder" type attitude - usually Sami gets us going !

[Calamrin]

Botham still going on about the Afridi incident when Bumble and Allot were talking about forgetting everything that happened yesterday and starting afresh.

there is being patriotic and then there is being a ****.... botham is doing the latter.

[Raz]

Maiden from Afridi, very good over.

[Amir]

He keeps criticisng Akmal. You miss soem you dont miss some, not like your keeper is perfect!

[mlegha1]

Placid wicket, nothing for the bowlers, plus Rana's consistent leg side bowling doesn't help either. Unless Bell an KP pay foolish shots there is no chance plenty of batting to come.Inzi need to think out of the box bring in Sami.

[mulan]

"chip on shoulder" type attitude
Then KP is the right guy to knock it off....

Botham still going on about the Afridi incident when Bumble and Allot were talking about forgetting everything that happened yesterday and starting afresh. He's probably doing that so people can "forget" about the Harmison thing....It's usually the case when you want to draw attention away from you...you point the finger on someone else.

[Calamrin]

He keeps criticisng Akmal. You miss soem you dont miss some, not like your keeper is perfect!

Put it this way, i would take him over Jones any day.

[mlegha1]

Hint of reverse swing time for SHoibee to warm up a little and have another go...

[Raz]

Then KP is the right guy to knock it off....

He's probably doing that so people can "forget" about the Harmison thing....It's usually the case when you want to draw attention away from you...you point the finger on someone else.

Then again wouldnt surprise me with Botham who i had a lot of respect for before this series started. Now im not sure even if there is an ounce left.

[badxhah]

Has Danny been warned this session

[octavian]

what a moron is Botham,, Rana is getting some appreciable reverse swing..and he thinks weather today is helping him.. a

And LOL good reply by Sanjay, saying that Bowler deserves some credit. !!

[Amir]

what a moron is Botham,, Rana is getting some appreciable reverse swing..and he thinks weather today is helping him.. a

And LOL good reply by Sanjay, saying that Bowler deserves some credit. !!

Other way around, Botham was complimenting Rana.

[Calamrin]

Has Danny been warned this session

twice... once more and thats it hes not bowling again this innings

[octavian]

Other way around, Botham was complimenting Rana.

yes After he got that reply form Sanjay !!!

[mlegha1]

Some bad decisions from the umpires needed nothing else seems to be working.

[mlegha1]

YOYO caught sleeping

[Calamrin]

Some bad decisions from the umpires needed nothing else seems to be working.


Huh? to be fair have not seen any bad decisions today.

[mlegha1]

Huh? to be fair have not seen any bad decisions today.
Thats why we need some...to get things going our way

[octavian]

Bell looking solid as a rock

[Raz]

Sami bowling in the low to mid 80s

[Calamrin]

ouch... afreidis hand has to hurt

[Amjid Javed]

eng 204/3

pakistan need a wicket here.. looks like england will get 450 here!

[Waseem]

Afridi didn't put any effort to catch that one, he could have easily taken the catch.

[Bilal_Kureshi]

I think this match will be drawn..
enjoy

[badxhah]

cant kaneria bowl in this innnings

[octavian]

things going according to plan for Pakistan management.. absolute belter of a pitch..

a run-fest and a draw

[pacman]

Yes, but if he is warned for running on to the pitch again, then he can't.

[nafajafam]

206-3 England

[nafajafam]

100 runs partnership off 208 balls.
Pakistan needs quick wickets.

[Raz]

Sami unlucky again

KP has been mighty lucky this morning.

[nafajafam]

very nice :19: :19:

[Jonty]

WE NEED a WICKET

[Amjid Javed]

***! dropped chance by kaneria!

retarded fielding!

afridi doesnt get pieterson!

[nafajafam]

Dropped!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[smoothcriminal]

haha our worst fielder does it again

[Amjid Javed]

WE NEED a WICKET

it helps if keeper could gather ball or certain fielders could catch!

[Jonty]

grrrrr

[Waseem]

***...................Kaneria has dropped one of the easiest of catches.

[mlegha1]

Drop catches, missed stumping and Flat Track...nothing working for Pak

[nafajafam]

Pakistan have been pathetic on the field today.

[Amjid Javed]

he didnt even get his hands to it!

[Jonty]

we need some fire, bring back akhtar

[nafajafam]

Pakistan are as ordinary today as they were extraordinary the past 2 days.

[Jonty]

sammy bowling well, needs wicket

[Waseem]

Ever piece of luck has gone their way, this one was the worst drop.

Kaneria made it look like the hardest chance ever.

[Jonty]

now that he is economical he is not picking up wickets

[Raz]

The Afridi let out an almighty howl after that dropped catch that shook the whole of Faisalabad. In fact i felt it from here in London.

[Raz]

Pieterson and Bell have been incredibly lucky this morning.

[Awesome Anjum]

We have ourselves to blame.

[Waseem]

It's not that our team has been pathetic, Sami, Akhtar, Kaneria have bowled really well but Akmal and Kaneria missed easiest of chances.

[Raz]

The Afridi let out an almighty howl after that dropped catch that shook the whole of Faisalabad. In fact i felt it from here in London.

He then showed how much of a rage he was in by bowling a 78mph faster delivery.

[smoothcriminal]

haha Danish fields the ball and Kamran Akmal " Well done Danish" HILARIOUS

[nafajafam]

212-3 England

[Raz]

haha Danish fields the ball and Kamran Akmal " Well done Danish" HILARIOUS

:)) :))

[Awesome Anjum]

Malik before lunch .

[Amjid Javed]

eng 212/3

pakistan need to stay focused here.. i dont want a karachi 2000 job!

[Amjid Javed]

[Awesome Anjum]

nice :))
EXCELLENT crowd in :19:

[nafajafam]

Malik into the attack.

[Jonty]

the beast is angry

[Raz]

Trust Botham to start talking about his action as soon as Malik comes on to bowl.

[Amjid Javed]

pieterson gets 2 off a sweep. good fielding on boundary.

[Jonty]

if i was malik i would hold my bowling arm with my other hand so it is extremely straight and bowl the ball looking and smiling at the umpire only, just to **** him off

[Amjid Javed]

kaneria drops another one. ran in slow and missed it!

[nafajafam]

well fielded by shoaib on the midwicket boundary

[Raz]

the beast is angry

Damn right hes angry! Hes absolutely furious and someone is going to be on the recieving end of his fury.

[CrickFan]

kaneria drops another one

[nafajafam]

danish is having a bad day... very bad.

[Waseem]

Pietersen survives once again.............

Drops just short of Kaneria....................damn....where is the LUCK????????

[Raz]

kaneria drops another one. ran in slow and missed it!

It was more difficult than the first but a better fielder would have taken that i think.

[nafajafam]

danish is a very slow runner and a bad catcher, why is he even fielding at that position

[Jonty]

black eyed peas - where is the luuuuuck?

[Imy]

poor danish

[Jonty]

he will never make it into the ODI side regardless of his bowling with his snail pace running and limited agility

[Amjid Javed]

guys please dont complain about luck!

plain and simple some fielders have been a joke and weve not taken our chances!

[nafajafam]

217-3 Lunch.
Pakistan very ordinary in the field today. Danish being the main culprit, followed by Kamran.
back in 40 mins.

[Amjid Javed]

thats lunch --> 36 overs 110 runs

eng 217/3 @ lunch

englands session. new ball dew afta 8 more overs

[Jonty]

england win a session

[nafajafam]

guys please dont complain about luck!

plain and simple some fielders have been a joke and weve not taken our chances!

agreed. luck has nothing to do with dropping catches and missing stumpings. They cant be even called chances, they were so easy and should have been made.

[Raz]

Boring Bob giving his boring views in the most boring fashion ever heard in boring history.

[Awesome Anjum]

Looks like we have thrown away our chance to win this match.

[Raz]

thats lunch --> 36 overs 110 runs

eng 217/3 @ lunch

englands session. new ball dew afta 8 more overs

How do you think Sami bowled today?

[Amjid Javed]

Looks like we have thrown away our chance to win this match.

this could become a one inns match and we havent had are one crappy low score of the series yet! :12:

[Amjid Javed]

How do you think Sami bowled today?

hes bowled well. all the seamers have bowled gamely on a placid track.

sami just needs to keep at and not release pressure by trying to bowl magic balls.

[nafajafam]

sami did bowl well today. keeping an off stump line.
hope pakistan pull something different post lunch session.

[CrickFan]

I have lost hope - maybe a bit early ..but looks like the fielding and danish's bowling is disintegrating - he will not be the same bowler after 2 missed catches and 2 warnings . One more warning and he can't bowl in this innings

[sars_pal]

Just woke up, seeing the highlights so far, catches win matches and this is a dissapointing start to the day.

That said we are still the side in front and the new ball is due in 8 overs a couple of quick poles after lunch and the momentum will be back firmly with us once more

[Imy]

One wicket and its going to be a collapse I can just feel it

[zaf1986]

Pietersen was due his big score after a crappy start. However, one more wicket, and Pakistan should be able to turn things around. There are still 2 sessions remaining on day 3 - enough time to force a result.

[thebarmyarmy]

england can still win this

[deviously~fading~away]

All i can say is Afridi not looking like Afridi!

[pacman]

This is so typical Pakistan. Finally they put up a decent score on the board, and then they get complecant. What a joke. They were on top this morning, and showed alot of aggression. They need to keep that kind of intencity all the time, and be ready for those chances that comes their way. Danish being the culprit on 2 occasions. Where can Inzi hide this man?

[thebarmyarmy]

they won the toss and batted first dude. any team could have scored 400 +

[deviously~fading~away]

Inzi should hide dani behind him :)))

[Waseem]

agreed. luck has nothing to do with dropping catches and missing stumpings. They cant be even called chances, they were so easy and should have been made.

But you probably missed the earlier part of the match, Pietersen's micued pull shots were going everywhere except hands, near misses, around 6 miscued pull shots, dragged one close to his stumps etc.........Stmpings and catches are obviously not just bad luck.

[akpower]

Peiterson's was the most convincing 60 odd runs I have seen in a some time. Half-a-dozen edges. A spilled chance at short mid-wkt, another dropped one at mid-off, another one at square leg dropping short of Kaneria, 3-4 times almost chopped on the ball to his stumps. TOTALLY UNCONVINCING.

Ian Bell also very got another life when Akmal missed a stumping not as starightforward as many think. Batsman's motion was blocking his view, and extravagant bounce and spin out-did him. ALL in all, england very lucky to not be 5-6 wkts down.

[nafajafam]

na, i saw the game since the start. easy chances should be taken. the 'luck' will soon end then.

[nafajafam]

4 legbyes off afridi

[nafajafam]

danish onto bowl now

[nafajafam]

3rd umpire called on stumping. doesnt seem out

[nafajafam]

not out

[nafajafam]

3rd umpire making a correct decision :14:

[Ace Base]

Too many doubters on here.

Realism is one thing. Pessimism is another.

Realistically speaking, do you really think England will be able to secure a large enough lead by lunch tomorrow?

Second, is the Pakistan batting so pathetic that they won't be able to last 80 overs after that? If it is, then they really do deserve to lose.

If the game carries on in the same the current vein, England will have to score around 180 in 45 overs on a 5th day pitch.

What England victory?

Thats the spirit akhee. :14:

[nafajafam]

good ball to end the over. 234-3

[zaf1986]

good ball to end the over. 234-3
cricinfo says akmal dropped it :6:

[Ace Base]

Pakistani bowlers have to work harder than any other bowlers in international cricket.

Where others only need "dismiss" a batsmen once, Pakistanis have to get him out twice or thrice because they've either balled a no-ball or somebody's dropped or missed an absolute sitter.

[nafajafam]

bell looks comfortable against danish. not so against afridi

[nafajafam]

cricinfo says akmal dropped it :6:

really.. not paying too much attention on the game. fielding kinda put me off

[nafajafam]

noball bowled by afridi. 242-3

[nafajafam]

batsmen taking too many easy singles for my liking.
England 243-3

[nafajafam]

pieterson launches one in the stands for a huge six off danish. 250-3

[teflon_don]

Pakistan are allowing England back in to the game, if they are not already back in to it.

We need to break this partnership ASAP.

[nafajafam]

Shoaib onto bowl now. good bowling change

[Ace Base]

4 an over from here will take them to 460 odd by close of play.

4 an over upto lunch on day 4 will give them a lead of around 130.

The above represent "most realistic best-case scenarios" for England.

[sars_pal]

come on guys I think a cple of wickets are essential now not only to regain momentum but to snuff out any chance England have

[deviously~fading~away]

1 wicket thats all we need, to get back the confidence!

[akpower]

dont get dissapointed guys they will come very soon IA, we will bounce back soon

[nafajafam]

92.2mph fastest so far for shoaib today. good over.
new ball being taken

[nafajafam]

4 an over from here will take them to 460 odd by close of play.

4 an over upto lunch on day 4 will give them a lead of around 130.

The above represent "most realistic best-case scenarios" for England.

comeon Ace, we are thinking of winning the game. ;-)

[nafajafam]

immediate outswing for rana

[Ace Base]

Pakistan must change the game plan slightly.

First go all out attck with the new ball for 12 overs.

Then squeeze the runs for the next 15.

That'll bring about some mistakes from the English.

You see, the onus is on England to speed up the scoring rate if they want to win this.

[Ace Base]

comeon Ace, we are thinking of winning the game. ;-)

Akhi, of the two most likely possibilities, a Pakistani win is the least probable.

At this stage of the game, a draw is the most likely result.

An English victory is the least probable outcome.

[nafajafam]

255-3 England.
Shoaib to continue

[nafajafam]

six off shoaib. good pull shot. 100 for pieterson.

[Ace Base]

Pieterson comes to the party!

[nafajafam]

Out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!1 Pieterson Gone

[pacman]

Finally - KP gone :)) :))

[sars_pal]

yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss pieterson gone just after getting the 100 thats the break through

[badxhah]

did anyone see shobby another fine coming

[nafajafam]

Pakistan finally take a catch. Yousuf takes an easy catch off a miscued pull at mid on. game on!! :97:

[deviously~fading~away]

Pierterson gone!!!!!!!! And what a send off Akhtar gave to him! Afridi must be happy now atleast!

[offstump]

Shoaib made an imitation of a chicken ! hahaahah. Puk Puk Puk Pukaaaah

[nadeem]

Don't care if he gets a warning for this but he gave Pietersen Chicken style sendoff.

I loved it
:)

[Invictus]

dam fines. 1 more fine and I am gonna jam my foot up the a** of the next british dude I see

[akpower]

[nafajafam]

yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. wadda aaya pietersen. Ai lai waarh iss wkt nuu apne boothay vich saala travolta dee aulaad.

yaar century maar gya laiken.

[Ace Base]

Knowing the racist match referees and ICC officials, Shoiab is going to be fined for sure.

Wallahi, may Allah give them what they deserve for their targetting of Muslims and Pakistanis.

[nafajafam]

who cares 20% match fee.... send off was a classic

[nadeem]

Yaar iqbal nay ke aakhaya see bro ? " aisee century se maut achee jis se aati ho khusray pun ki budboo" :)))

Seriously yaar nafa we can still do it.

[akpower]

i was just hoping that akhtar takes him off the very next ball. i styll couldnt believe that actually happend!

[nafajafam]

94.5mph fastest for Shoaib so far

[Waseem]

yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. wadda aaya pietersen. Ai lai waarh iss wkt nuu apne boothay vich saala travolta dee aulaad.


Hahahhahaha
Botham is crying out loud over Akhtar's celebration, i don't care if Shoaib loses his match fee. He has done the best thing of this match............Pietersen jaisi ganday attitude walay k liye Shoaib hi best hai.......dafa ho ja k attitude dikha apnay captain Vaughan ko ab.

[pacman]

Can't believe Botham? What is this guys problem? He is such an idiot. What is wrong in celebrating a good wicket. Come on.

[nadeem]

Woooow 94.5. Nice nice, my brother just warming up. Keep it coming plz nafa.

[whyhkk]

why are the commentators talking more about the celebration than the wicket cmon this is stupid

[Waseem]

Botham is still talking about Shoaib and his match fee, he didn't like the chicken dance at all it seems :D:D:D:D

[nafajafam]

Yaar iqbal nay ke aakhaya see bro ? " aisee century se maut achee jis se aati ho khusray pun ki budboo" :)))

Seriously yaar nafa we can still do it.

oh yea, we can do it InshaAllah.

[MIG]

I detect a lot of hot air from Botham.....another gas cylinder about to explode ?

[nafajafam]

270-4. Bell looking very comfortable

[zaf1986]

I detect a lot of hot air from Botham.....another gas cylinder about to explode ?
:))

[mulan]

NOw that KP is gone, perhaps Afridi can be himself again...

[pacman]

Shoaib is on fire. Keep it up.

[nadeem]

Kyoonke kul explosion dee wajah ton botham da bacha juldi ho gaya see te ujj celebration de baad odha kush hor dig paya ai :)))

Yaar ai kee ENG ne khusryaan dee fauj phaij ditee ai PAK vul? Saalay naamurd

[HAFRIDI]

Kyoonke kul explosion dee wajah ton botham da bacha juldi ho gaya see te ujj celebration de baad odha kush hor dig paya ai :)))

Yaar ai kee ENG ne khusryaan dee fauj phaij ditee ai PAK vul? Saalay naamurd

[pacman]

Miscued pullshot from Flintoff. He is putting pressure on England.

[nafajafam]

94.7mph. attempted yorker but a noball

[pacman]

Shoaib is smiling cause Flintoffs bat is broken :))

[nafajafam]

Shoaib's fastest today was 95.1mph

[sars_pal]

so often in test cricket after a big patnership once one goes the other does, either wicket now wud be awesome byt if we can take Bell now then we well and truly have the momentum

[pacman]

We need a couple of wickets with this new ball. Danish is not worth anything in this innings. Naved needs to join Shoaib and play some chin music :D

[offstump]

waqar and ramiz are such jobbers, are they scared of botham and his gorra crew, why dont they say something back bunch of useless clowns

[Hash]
