Official day 2 thread.Pak vs Ind.Karachi [30/1/06]

[the true passionist]

another play nd miss.

[Oxy]

ADhoni has played and missed to 3 consec balls from Asif-very impressed with is 2 games so far

[tahaqureshi]

30.5 Asif to Dhoni, no run, fuller and just outside off, swung away to beat the edge
30.4 Asif to Dhoni, no run, slightly short outside off, Dhoni looks to play on the up, nothing shot and is beaten
30.3 Asif to Dhoni, no run, outside off and held its line, play and miss


Dhoni just playing and missing!!!! we need to get him before he settles in!

[Usman Chadda]

Dhoni gets beaten three times in a row. Not a pitch which is ideal for his kind of play. The last one was a beauty by Asif.

[Oxy]

Dhonis uppishly hits 1 through point-4...but was in the air.

Well boweled Asif

[the true passionist]

4 this time...

asif should persist....
141/5

[karachiite]

Dhoni there for the taking-need to get him early

yes because he can cut the lead short in a very little time

[Oxy]

Beautiful drive off the back foot by YS....4

[karachiite]

these boundaries are gonna hurt us bad. Need another wicket here because these two can take the game away very quickly.

[tahaqureshi]

We have persisted with only 3 bowlers in the last 30 odd overs...

should we try danish now, or maybe even the partnership breaker afridi?

[Oxy]

What is it with the crowd/groundstaff at Karachi-very unprofessional. Too many stoppages in this game. Too much movement behind the bowlers arm. Shows a lack of intelligence...cricket crowds should be aware of these things.

[karachiite]

Any movement in the air/off the seam for razzi?

[badxhah]

lead under 100 now

[Kashif]

akhtar should learn a point here.....short ones are good as surprise deliveries.
same as yorkers (u cant bowl them regularly)

Good observation. Shoaib is trying to outpace the batsmen. He is twice the bowler when he's using his brains.

..as I type unplayable ball by Razzaq.

[Oxy]

What a beauty from Razzi...unplayable delivery..how did it miss the edge???

[badxhah]

thats was a jaffa

[smoothcriminal]

asif should be bowling to Dhoni

[Usman Chadda]

India - 149/5

Yuvrajv beaten all ends up by a Razzaq delivery. Amazing bowling!

[Oxy]

Any movement in the air/off the seam for razzi?

A hiint...nothing for Shoaib.

[the true passionist]

i must say yuvraj has played well with some luck.

[karachiite]

cricinfo crashes..........

[Oxy]

Wonderful ball by Asif to YS...another play and miss.

[Usman Chadda]

India - 150/5

Ball getting really old now so expect some reverse from Razzaq. Asif produced two wonderful deliveries in the last over which beat both Yuvrah and Dhoni.

[Oxy]

Great ball-hint of away swing. MSD beaten again. Fine bowling by Asif

[the true passionist]

wao!!
asif should right away be a permanent in both forms of the game.
the good part is he maintains his line even after getting hit.

[cavin420]

a very gud morning to all the peeps !!!!
154 india now..........time for some spin action one feels!

[karachiite]

Wonderful ball by Asif to YS...another play and miss.

o yar ab edge bhi ker do

[cavin420]

one feels yuvi shoulndt be there lucky

[tahaqureshi]

a very gud morning to all the peeps !!!!
154 india now..........time for some spin action one feels!

yaar ab tu bhi aagaya...khayr hai :P ;-)

[Jonty]

is Asif the real deal line and length feel?

[karachiite]

wao!!
asif should right away be a permanent in both forms of the game.
the good part is he maintains his line even after getting hit.

yes, he has shown a very good temperament. doesnt get flustered or angry.

[cavin420]

we need to get em atleast 8 down by 200.............................dani should never take the feild!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
159 india

[Jonty]

two dangerous batsmen at the crease, wicket needed

[the true passionist]

aweful fielding....
letting dhoni settle down...he will get out if u stop his runs.

[cavin420]

yaar ab tu bhi aagaya...khayr hai :P ;-)
kyuon mera ana mana hai :O
what a peach of a delivery beaten all ends up yuvi ..(jones) arun laal well left by yuvi :))):)))

[badxhah]

Oscar nominations ...World Worst feilder goes to DK

[tahaqureshi]

Asif is quick becoming one of my favourite bowlers

[Jonty]

looks liek razzaq is getting beltered

[Oxy]

Asif-ANTHER play and miss from YS...

[Usman Chadda]

India - 159/5

Yuvraj and Dhoni both getting a boundary in the last over, which was bowled by Razzaq BTW. Need to get a few balls in the right areas to Dhoni. Danish Kaneria needs to work heaps on his fielding

P.S. As I say this MoYo does a very good job in the field!

[the true passionist]

oh....
unlucky Asif and lucky Yuvi.

[cavin420]

what a shot no footmovement n whakced straight down the ground for 4 :(

[cavin420]

165 another single........we need to attack a bit more ..shouldnt let em take easy single....they are rotating strike at will!!!

[cavin420]

outttttttttttttttttttttttt

[tahaqureshi]

ASIF my hero!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cavin420]

yuvi outttttttttttttttt asif gets his wicket

[Usman Chadda]

OH YEAH! OH YEAH! ASIF GETS YUVRAJ PLUMB. GREAT DELIVERY!!!

TAKE THAT ARUN LAL!

India - 165/6 now!

[azaruddin]

Pak : Extras: 22 ( b:8 lb:3 nb:11 w:0)
Ind : Extras: 5 ( b:0 lb:2 nb:1 w:2)

Point to be notice.

[Jonty]

[Oxy]

[karachiite]

[cavin420]

[Oxy]

Yuvis luck runs out.

Asif gets the most deserved wkt in history!!!!!!

[the true passionist]

asif now getting his share...

[octavian]

finaly !!!!!!

cud have been at least 20 times Yuvraj

[Jonty]

i was watching the news, and the way they pronounce irfan pathans name is hilarious.. eerrrfin python

[Kashif]

What a well deserved wicket for Asif! Big crucial wicket for Pakistan. Asif to get a 5-fer!

[octavian]

Asif what a spell !!

one of the most luckiest 45 in test history ends

[Oxy]

yeh cheez now one feels pindi needs to replace razi b4 lunch for a 2 over brust!!!!!!!

Pindi has been awful today. He needs a break to reflect-and watch Asif and Razzi' line and lenght

[karachiite]

o jaa asif meray shair. kya baat hai

[cavin420]

peeps from the uk i know its not relevent here.........but does this no work on ur 3 network?Call the World FREE using your inclusive minutes on your mobile phone . this site one says free for orange........but just wondering anyone tried it on 3?????

[Jonty]

dhoni needs to go, i think we should injure pathan with some lethal bouncers

[Oxy]

Wasim Akram comes into bat...

[cavin420]

outtttttttt dhoniiiiiiiiii

[Jonty]

looks like we will not be seeing sami for quite a while now. this will be a good break for him.

[cavin420]

[karachiite]

[Usman Chadda]

RAZZAQ GETS DHONI CAUGHT BEHIND! PAKISTAN ON A ROLL!!!!

India - 165/7

Shaabaash cheetoon!

[Big Mac]

Asif really deserved that wicket, he's bowled brilliantly today

[Oxy]

Yyyyyyyyeeeeesssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cavin420]

[karachiite]

[the true passionist]

dhoni the indian afridi....not the pakistani akmal.

[cavin420]

165 for 7 now india yayyyyyyyyyyyy

[the true passionist]

come on boyz let's pile them up.!!

[Oxy]

I tell you , Raz and Asif have bolwed superbly today. I hope Shoaib is watching and learning for his next session!

[karachiite]

o razzi aa gaya maidan main hoye jamalo. khalbali machi hindustan main hoye jamalo.

[tahaqureshi]

india's quickest bowler at the crease now

[the true passionist]

hes only 22.........!!1 after taking yuvis, wicket he can bowl for another hour or so easy ;-)

165 for 7 now india yayyyyyyyyyyyy

i can understand that!

[skr30]

dhoni the indian afridi....not the pakistani akmal.

You put both their heads together and they might solve a third grade math problem

[Big Mac]

As I said 18 hours ago:

AHAHAHAHAHHA I am never EVER saying anything against Razzaq ever again

[Jonty]

time to wrap it up!

[cavin420]

kami dropssss kumbleeeeee

[Oxy]

Its great when someone like Razzak sticks 2 fingers up to his critics....fine bowling; great batting.

ARUN LAL is in tears! Deano puts him in his place

[Big Mac]

Aaaaargh, Akmal drops a very difficult chance behind the wicket going down the legside

[cavin420]

gud effort thought was a diffcult one down the leg side mu ha ha ha ha ha . hje he he hehehhe esomeone listen to arun laal now hes almost dead mu ha ha hah

[Oxy]

Fine effort by Kami doen legside...needs to be taken though

[cavin420]

pathan dropped nowwwwwww eazy catchhhhhhhhhhhh dropped by younis this time

[Jonty]

krumble kumble

[Big Mac]

And Younis drops Pathan next ball!

[karachiite]

stupid bits and pieces players. Dont score runs, dont take wickets. Bring back Gul.

[Usman Chadda]

Very hard chance for Akmal

[cavin420]

what the hells happening that was a sitter with that younis bhai jaan injures himself.......................................:|

[Jonty]

gutted cavin, cant underestimate pathan

[karachiite]

nahiiiiiii

[Oxy]

Another drop-YK injured...what an over...2 drops in 2 balls

[MIG]

Mera piyara cousin Razzy !!! Well done old boy !!

[cavin420]

they could so easily be 9 down for 167 what a sitter drooped by younis n injuring his finger in the process

[the true passionist]

pakistan need to focus.
every run that we can get as a lead will be crucial.

[Farah]

We r fielding poorly misfields and dropped catches :(

[karachiite]

YK yeh kya kiyaaa

[cavin420]

well thats why aussies are so much better...that should have been taken by an aussie style with fingers pointing upwards was comfortable he made it awakard for him self!!!!!!!!by fingers pointing downwards...................lets just hope doesnt cost pak too much

[Jonty]

bring back the rawalpindi express

[Oxy]

Yk looks in agony-fingers look messed up.Lots of blood Who would take over from him? MoYo?

[karachiite]

These two catches may well end up costing us 50 runs. Come on guys get a grip.

[cavin420]

catches win matches boys......kami can be fogiven since that was a difficult one but younis khan hes meant to be gud in the slips ehhh :|

[Big Mac]

Ouch, the ball has pushed the nails of the ring fingers on both hands right into the fingers and split them. Blood started to flow from both hands straight away as well. Didn't show any pain though :11:

He'll struggle to bat though from the looks of it :(

[smoothcriminal]

i truly believe bringing back shoaib wont be a smart idea.. you can never say but i think it wont be wise for now

[cavin420]

i hope not!!!!either freeedi or pindi!!

but younis should be coming back soon!

[karachiite]

and cricinfo crashes againnn......

[cavin420]

what stemina shown by asif still bowlingbeauties...............................

[Jonty]

dam. isnt he the india killer

[cavin420]

and cricinfo crashes againnn......

[Oxy]

Great over from McGRath...I mean Asif :)

[hasanahmad]

well thats why aussies are so much better...that should have been taken by an aussie style with fingers pointing upwards was comfortable he made it awakard for him self!!!!!!!!by fingers pointing downwards...................lets just hope doesnt cost pak too much

you do remember the 30 catches aussies dropped in ashes didnt u

[Jonty]

Great over from McGRath...I mean Asif :)



thats quite a statement you made oxy

[cavin420]

Ouch, the ball has pushed the nails of the ring fingers on both hands right into the fingers and split them. Blood started to flow from both hands straight away as well. Didn't show any pain though :11:

He'll struggle to bat though from the looks of it :(
atleast he will have an excuse for failure this time :))):))) :))))
saying that doesnt look athat bad its almost fixed now........6 min to lunch damn we should have atleast 1 wicket b4 lunhc!!

[Usman Chadda]

Great bowling by our jawaans! Keep going lads and make your country proud.

Younis' fingers look really busted. Poor guy, first drops the catch and then to add to that his fingers get busted.

[cavin420]

razi bowling looking like a million dollar bowler!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! what beautiesss hes bowling!

[tahaqureshi]

cricinfo is slow guys, try www.cricbuzz.com its much faster, atleast 3 deliveries faster

[Imy]

Younis Khan did not flinch

[cavin420]

cricinfo is slow guys, try www.cricbuzz.com its much faster, atleast 3 deliveries faster
even faaster then me :|

[Big Mac]

Razzaq has been taking coaching tips from Ranadinho, he's bowling brilliantly.

[cavin420]

another outside edge just shot awwwwwwwww razi devers a fiferrrrrrrrrrr

[Farah]

Razzaq is bowling brilliantly, if only our fielders cud take the chances! Almost another catch landed short of slip, lucky Pathan!

[Big Mac]

Oh that's just short.

[Oxy]

One of Razzak's FINEST overs in Pak colours.

[Usman Chadda]

India - 168/7

Pathan 2 Kumble 1

Both have a catch dropped of them. Anyhoo, Pakistan should bring back Shoaib to wipe off this tail. Give Asif or Razzaq a deserved rest.

[cavin420]

so the showman khan comes back on the feild........goes straight to the slips and pindi comes in yayyyyyyyyy

[Farah]

Pindi Express back on

[Big Mac]

Haha, Younis walks back onto the field with his fingers heavily bandaged and walks right back into place at second slip :D

[Amjid Javed]

i hope we can get a 50+ run lead here atleast.

we need to bat alot better in 2nd inns compared to tripe in 1ts inns.

[cavin420]

comes inbowls nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn gud bouncer!!!! to start off!

[Oxy]

YK haters-just look at the guts of the guy!

[cavin420]

intresting facts for pindi..........he got 8 wickets in his first test match............n in the other 6 hes taken 8 :))):)))

[cavin420]

oo beaten u lil beautyyyyyy .....slower oneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee come on next one shabash!

[cavin420]

again beauten too fast for kumble dumble to handle outside the off stump again

[karachiite]

boht ala boht ala

[tahaqureshi]

even faaster then me :|

lol no man..you're the gem of PP score threads!

[cavin420]

single brings the bacha pathan to face some sweet chin music!

[karachiite]

shoaib getting some shape?

[Farah]

lunch 169-7

[Oxy]

23 overs in 2 hours? Thats a joke!

[Usman Chadda]

Shoai bowls a pretty good over and thats lunch mateys.

India currently reside on 169/7 with Pathan on 2 and Kumble also on 2. This session, according to Deano, belonged to Pakistan and rightly so!

[karachiite]

good session for pakistan, which could have been great had they held on to all their chances or even half of them

[Oxy]

Okie dokie folks...Im off to bed for an hour or so!

[karachiite]

23 overs in 2 hours? Thats a joke!

I think YK will have to be fined a couple of times before he learns, just like inzi did.

[Amjid Javed]

pathan/kumble can both stick around and bat so we need to get thru indias tail asap and then look to bat for a big total in 2nd inns.

[cavin420]

lol no man..you're the gem of PP score threads!
olivia shukariyaa!!!

right on the money pindi........u can see it bacha pathan is playing frm his crease ...is scared!!!!

what that its lunch time peeeps......................session belongs to pakistan could have been alot better for pak but no complains......we can still clean em up quickly i feel.......so no worries inshAllah boy are playing well Thanks to Allah team is performing well Razzak is bowling well everybody bowling well so lunch now (bit of inzi :D

[nafajafam]

Salaam everyone, things are looking good Alhumdulillah.

[nafajafam]

Pindi has bowled a bit too short far too many times.

[Hash]

Just woken up. How is the pitch playing?

[nafajafam]

Just woken up. How is the pitch playing?

Pitch is offering movement.

[cavin420]

Just woken up. How is the pitch playing?
its ok..hasnt played up any tricks so far...........its been normal but gud bowling by our bowlers gud consistent bowling!

[cavin420]

Salaam everyone, things are looking good Alhumdulillah.
ws nafa..jafa............well pindi was ruffing em up for asif n razi to attack frm the other end..it was a team effort.........if u ever knew the true meaning of team work ehh ;-)

[cavin420]

in other words he was softening em up so that razi n asif can do the trick!!!!!!!!!!!

[luvthegame]

Shoaib needs to bowl on the stump like he did yesterday and got Sehwag. We need to clean up the tail asap....

[cavin420]

boyccss sayaing : ganguly shouldnt have been playing the hook short hes no gud at it no more (well boyccs like he ever was ehh?

[cavin420]

Shoaib needs to bowl on the stump like he did yesterday and got Sehwag. We need to clean up the tail asap....
inshAllah we will..perhaps a pindi hatrcik or a razi one u never know ;-)

[cavin420]

it would be very unfair on ganguly if he gets dropped again for the test matches..............what a gutsy innings by him!!!

[inzidabest]

had the catches been taken tail was already gone.

[Farah]

Just woken up. How is the pitch playing?


I dnt think u wudve enjoyed the 1st hr much, Asif Razzaq & Shoaib all hav bowled really well after drinks break wkts fell.

[cavin420]

had the catches been taken tail was already gone.
no worries part of the game tiger.............!look at the bright side wasnt ganguly or any of the other big guns dropepd..inhsAllah we are more then capable of cleaning em up ASAP!

[Farhad]

Gorilla-face Dhoni showed what a flat-track bully he is. Compare his style to that of our Akmal.......now Dhoni lasted a fraction of how long Akmal was at the crease, yet played more than twice the false strokes. ;-)

[nafajafam]

ws nafa..jafa............well pindi was ruffing em up for asif n razi to attack frm the other end..it was a team effort.........if u ever knew the true meaning of team work ehh ;-)

Haha, I would like him to attack the stumps more often, he would do far greater damage then.

[Usman Chadda]

no worries part of the game tiger.............!look at the bright side wasnt ganguly or any of the other big guns dropepd..inhsAllah we are more then capable of cleaning em up ASAP!

Thats the spirit boy!

How about we tell Afridi to bowl seam-up and clean these guys up eh?

[cavin420]

Haha, I would like him to attack the stumps more often, he would do far greater damage then.
u can only get what u can get!!! sure everyone wants a bigger slice of the pie dearlo nafa...jafa but hes done his part...for now...n after lunch i can see a pindi esp coming up!

[nafajafam]

Gorilla-face Dhoni showed what a flat-track bully he is. Compare his style to that of our Akmal.......now Dhoni lasted a fraction of how long Akmal was at the crease, yet played more than twice the false strokes. ;-)

Just watching Dhoni bat wouldn't have been very inspiring for any Indian fan. Got beat on 85% deliveries he faced. He thinks he is still batting on a flat pancake!!

[cavin420]

Gorilla-face Dhoni showed what a flat-track bully he is. Compare his style to that of our Akmal.......now Dhoni lasted a fraction of how long Akmal was at the crease, yet played more than twice the false strokes. ;-)
indeed he is.....kami is a million dollars...........!!!!!! even when he defends looks 10 times better then dhoni no comparison!!

[nafajafam]

u can only get what u can get!!! sure everyone wants a bigger slice of the pie dearlo nafa...jafa but hes done his part...for now...n after lunch i can see a pindi esp coming up!

Nahin, you don't get what I mean. He has bowled some very short ones that the batsmen evaded quite comfortably. I would like him to cut on those. Waqar used to attack the stumps quite often and was very successful, I am sure they are bowling to a plan, but the ones that are very short, he could do without those.

[cavin420]

Thats the spirit boy!

How about we tell Afridi to bowl seam-up and clean these guys up eh?
no pindi razi n asif are doing a gr8 job so far :D .......lets hope they can finish em up ...let freedi rest ;-) n lets keep dani boy in the dressing room :D

[cavin420]

Nahin, you don't get what I mean. He has bowled some very short ones that the batsmen evaded quite comfortably. I would like him to cut on those. Waqar used to attack the stumps quite often and was very successful, I am sure they are bowling to a plan, but the ones that are very short, he could do without those.
waqar was a diff class all-together........the thing with pindi is..hes more emotional...sometimes his emotions get the better of him.....!!!!!!! he was trying to prrove a point as well on this pitch with his short pitch stuff im sure inshAllah after lunch he will be right on the money!

[MIG]

Farhad bhai ! yaar Gorilla shorilla na lagao uskay naam kay saath - its bordering on abuse - please!

Thanks

MIG

[cavin420]

mabrook to u as well!

[cavin420]

let the battle continue.........kumble dumble facesssssssssssssssss raziiiiiiiiiiiiii

[cavin420]

starts off with a no ball!!!

[Aurangzeb]

they shoud have used asif in the last over instead of akhtar...these line and length bowlers are proving more effective than akhtars width deliveries...

[Big Mac]

I'd like to say something about Razzaq and his no-ball problem but I can't.

[cavin420]

extras move on to 24 becomig the 3rd highest batter for india................younis khan feilding at mid off now :))):)))

[cavin420]

how would this spell of bowling n the brief innings with the bat help razi in the next innings n future one dayers......another no ball....................was a gud bowl though

[Nauman]

Arghh another no ball.

[badxhah]

i dont get if bowls a no ball y doesnt his pace increase ..

[cavin420]

single off the last ball .......kumble dumble retains the strike would be facing some sweet chin music!!!

[Usman Chadda]

Razzaq has bowled 7 no-balls so far!!!

India - 172/7

[cavin420]

i dont get if bowls a no ball y doesnt his pace increase ..
we shouldnt forget hes 34 now........so take it eazy on the guy!!!
172 for 7

[Nauman]

Bring Asif on, Shoaib hasnt slept much because he has been spraying the ball all around.

[Aurangzeb]

get shoaib off...rana should be playing instead of him...

[cavin420]

was just wondering why doesnt freeedi feild at slip............................have seen him take some blinders at 2nd slip!!!
pindi so far on the money......slowly but surly increasing his pace as welll

[badxhah]

we shouldnt forget hes 34 now........so take it eazy on the guy!!!
172 for 7


34 wth ?

[cavin420]

get shoaib off...rana should be playing instead of him...
:))):))):))):))):))):))):))):))))

3 runs to kumble brings the bacha pathan on strike now

[cavin420]

34 wth ?
was talking about his age 34 yrz old ..kidding!!!!

175...hint of reverse swing for pindi here!

[Danishau]

i smell a wicket coming in this over by pindi

[rayhan]

hey guys, I've been watching this from the morning. Asif has bowled really well, line and length stuff...very impressive. Razzi has bowled well as well and has picked up crucial wickets, but what is really worrying about Razzi's bowling has been his indiscipline especially with no-balls. He has given too many of them.
