[cavin420]

Alrighty Peeps , Whats The Weather Forcast :d

[Daoud]

Scattered thunderstorms according to Yahoo

[mlegha1]

worst would be if id doesn't train but the conditions are overcast.Then we'll fold within the first session.Inzamam is the key man he has to dig deep to pull out a miracle.But I just have a feeling it is Murli time.

[cavin420]

fingers crossed, its really pouring down in here..i hope sames the case in srilanka :D

[Monsee]

fingers crossed, its really pouring down in here..i hope sames the case in srilanka :D

[Waheed_one]

Hello All........we can win this.............or can we???

[cavin420]

Hello All........we can win this.............or can we???
yes, and can pigs fly :O


seriously have got nothing to loose if we attack, if we stay defensive...then we can loose, i blv we need to attack at the right time n then defend take it session by session....and after tea ***** the situation but one things for sure, if we defend and play with a negative mindset, then definitly loosing.......

[Waheed_one]

defend before lunch.attack until tea....................defend until drinks.attack frest of teh day?

sounds good?

I don';t know they are trying with genetically engire a pig with wings.......it might be able to fly

They already made glow in the dark pig....dam those japanese!

[cavin420]

just heard aamir sohails interview, agree with only 1 point he made, he said to a question which was why is inzi always hiding at no5, and sending youngsters above him (faisal iqbal) , he said inzi has always been like that, saves his beloved position , in the past i iwlll give you an exampe of series in 94 against austraila, we follwed on against aus, and salim malik scored 237 :11: and won pak the match single handedly, then 2nd test pak 4th day , were 60 for 5, again salim scored 170 runs..now if inzi wants to prove his greatness and join the league he has to save this test match!!!!!!!

Good point.............But..how come it doesn';t work on pathans?

[cavin420]

nope, everyone here logs in from TOOBA TAIK SINGH ,


malik playing murali with ease (play him for 5 to 10 overs without giving him a wicket im sure he will panick and start doing differnt things!!!

[nafajafam]

salaam guys, how are things looking?

[Geordie Ahmed]

thanx cornelius... so people join in here from around the world or what? or is it mainly north america?

mainly UK but members from US, Canada, Pakistan etc etc

[Tupac]

[Swaraj!!]

it might just rain .... weather there changes much faster than anywhere else

[Geordie Ahmed]

what r u crazy?bakwaas kar rha thaa main...were all gonna die!!!!!!! :110:

[cornelius]

thanx cornelius... so people join in here from around the world or what? or is it mainly north america?

yeah we have all sorts.im somewhere in canada,lots from north america here.but i think most of the guys here are from uk.but cant say really,pakistan say bhee hain,quite a few from the middle east, a few from finland(not kidding) ausralia,all over.anyways,back to the game. CAVIN, is the ball swinging alot?its overcast right?

[cavin420]

How long will Faisal's patience last?
inshAllah, im hoping miandad has given him a good lecture...so he wont throw it away.....looks solid so far...long may he continue...all the bedt to him..has played some lovely drives without any runs though...

[rizboy]

i think if these two can put on another hundred runs.. i think we might be in for a special finish...with afridi to come anything is possible...hence at york we say redefine the possible...he could do just that lol

[Raz]

Mahroof giving the eyes to Faisal

[cornelius]

quit the damn negativity :15:

[Raz]

Down the track and smashed down the track for 4 off Murali by Faisal

[Sheikh]

Rain

[PlanetPakistan]

i hope the pitch is well covered!
I dont want any moisture to sneak through!

[Lightning]

Damn just when we had the momentum. Those lucky lankans.

[cavin420]

too be honest, im kinda disapointed now since i wanted too see some good cricket being played here by pak (which was exactly what they were doing:|

perhaps when we are 5 wickets down then it can rain for as long as .........:P

[Toony™®]

the umpires have called in the covers, probably as a
precautionary measure as it's not raining that heavily at the
moment, just few drops here and there.

[umarbeast]

whatever I am so glad the rain came. This is a almost impossible match to even save.

[Toony™®]

There is a ring of dangerous dark clouds looming large around the
ground and things are looking ominous,

[Lightning]

I was just about to leave and get some nachos and come watch Pak gind it out. Maaan!

[cavin420]

i would be surprized if they come back and resume play today...no chance ...grounds filled with water......(i mean the covers:|

[pacman]

Allah ki rehmat hai. Baarish ai hai Pakistan ko bachane kei liye.

Thank God. It doesn't look like they will be out playing anytime soon. The less overs Pakistan have to face the better.

[Lightning]

It's getting better! Rain has stopped, only a slight drizzle now. But there is a large cloud cover yet.

[Sheikh]

We've lost a good 6-7 overs already and we should lose atleast another 10 more by the way things are looking!

[Waheed_one]

I wanted to Win

[Hash]

waheed khan - how were we suppose to win this match exactly?

[Sheikh]

I wanted to Win
Well if u had noticed the way the match has progressed and the way we have batted since the very beginning of the 2nd innings you would know that we're not looking for a win so please don't expect one!

[PlanetPakistan]

I wanted to Win

We all did!..... 4 days ago

[cavin420]

cav gives you the best possible news
play abandoned:D:D:D

[cavin420]

damn these ary people now they are saying its stopped damn:|

[Sheikh]

Groundsmen are out. Not sure if they're just adjusting the covers or preparing to take them off. At the worst we might see a half hr of play before lunch

[Pathan007]

there's no rain. but justa precautaion

[Sheikh]

Oh no they're taking the covers off!!! By the looks of it we might have play in abt 15 mins or so. That would a tricky 8-10 over period before lunch. This could be vital to our chances!!

[nafajafam]

I would rather Pakistan fight it out and not be saved by the rain.... and now I run.

[Waheed_one]

Sorry guys all of you jumped on me.......................Miracles do happen.and Pak is King of come backs wins.

[Sheikh]

Ok this may take longer than I thought. By the looks of it they're slow to take the covers off and their soaking op parts of the outfield

[Waheed_one]

I would rather Pakistan fight it out and not be saved by the rain.... and now I run.


Waite for me!

[Sheikh]

I would rather Pakistan fight it out and not be saved by the rain.... and now I run.
Well then I suppose what you're saying is that we should be angry at Allah for making it rain?

[Sheikh]

Okay im gonna bring back my prediction to a tricky period of 4-5 overs before lunch!

[Saqib]

Pakistan to play in about 20 minutes time !

[slix10]

We need a combined effort of rain dances in lahori's thread please.

thanks for your concern. :25:

[Sheikh]

Main cover off now. Play probably gonna start in abt 20 mins.

[lahori]

We need a combined effort of rain dances in lahori's thread please.

thanks for your concern. :25:

Everyone please chip in: http://www.pakpassion.net/ppforum/showthread.php?t=20290

Let's all dance together! we can do this ! :19:

[Sheikh]

No more rain boys. That was a passing shower. Suns out. Completely bright now. We probably have about 70 overs left to negotiate. I think we can do it. Must make it to lunch without losing a wicket!

[lahori]

No more rain boys. That was a passing shower. Suns out. Completely bright now. We probably have about 70 overs left to negotiate. I think we can do it. Must make it to lunch without losing a wicket!

The Malik looks in fine 'nick'. Can't wait for him to get a 50

[cavin420]

play about to begin in 90 seconds

[Sheikh]

Do you guys know if lunch will still be taken in about a half hrs time?

[cavin420]

[Sheikh]

Looks like it will be abt 6-7 overs before what is the stipulated lunch interval.

[cavin420]

Do you guys know if lunch will still be taken in about a half hrs time?

2 and a half hours of testing cricket awais pakistan!

[Hash]

:12::12::20:

naraz? kyun bhai?

Are you missing parathas and lassi or have I offfended you in some other way?

[tahaqureshi]

Pakistan will either lose it or win it. I don't see Pakistan drawing it. Reason being that if we do end up playing out the remaining overs of the day..the singles, boundaries that will come along they way will eventually bring us very close to the original target becaseu we still have MANY overs to go.

So either we'll lose wickets and lose the match..OR we'll play out the overs..and in the process get reasonably close to the target.

[cavin420]

You would think Sri Lanka would have to play amazingly well or Pakistan play amazingly badly for this not to end in a draw.
