Offical Thread (day 1) - 2nd test WI v Pak @ Jamaica [2/6/05]

[Usman]

Afridi's centuary would have been much more useful here I think!

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

akmal smashes a 4! cover drive, widish delivery from collymore

[Usman]

Good shot! 4 from Akmal

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

akmal stands up tall and cuts collymore behind point for 4 more!!

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

NEW BALL IS TAKEN NOW - powell will take it

[Usman]

I've just turned from Tape ball specialist to Local club player! \:D/ B/” :|Y”

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

HUGE SEAM MOVEMENT first ball with new ball - !!


second ball - akmal smahes a great 4 - A BEAUTIFUL COVER DRIVE, one word for that shot - IMMENSE!

[Saj]

Akmal plays one of the best cover drives you will ever see. Whistled to the boundary

[Usman]

brilliant!!!!!!

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

akmal looking good!

[octavian]

Pakistan 321-6 4 overs to go.

Kami and Razzi need to stay there.

[Amjid Javed]

Akmal plays one of the best cover drives you will ever see. Whistled to the boundary

Text book ;)+

lets hope we get 400

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

tino best takes the new ball at other end

[octavian]

Best hasnt touched 90 mph so far. As we heard he was capable of bowling above 90

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

akmal wafts at a wide, high ball outside off - tried to uppercut it but missed

[octavian]

kami caught off a noball !!

[Amjid Javed]

akmal gone off a no ball...

actually was a legit ball!

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

akmal out on a no ball


IT WASNT A NO BALL - daryll hair gets another one wrong

[whyhkk]

That was not a no ball unlucky tino

[octavian]

replay shows that wasn't a no ball

[Usman]

Woah is he walking, get back man!!!

[Amir]

Who cares, I think we deserve a call for once!

[Amir]

Who cares, I think we deserve a call for once!

Plus it will be all balanced with Shep on the other end

[Raz]

Disgraceful umpiring from Hair! Hes done it to the West Indies before in the SA series, not giving a blatant edge off Kallis when he was on 0 and Kallis made 87. WI went on to lose by 1 run

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

best has that sliding foot feature - seems hair calls him a little late i.e. once ball has been delievered

3 overs left


WILL THE COMMENTATORS SHUT UP - bloody cozier - how maany decisions went against pak last test - banging on about it - IT WAS WRONG but no need to whine

[Saj]

lucky break for Kamran, but he continues to play loose shots despite only a couple of overs left in the day.

[Usman]

Yes Waqar's inswinging yorker I agree with you!!!

[Usman]

Just two overs left they have to defend now

[Amjid Javed]

last over of the days play

pak 324/6

[Usman]

1 over, keep it going!!!

[161]

here is why i think razzaq should open for us in test -


88.6 Best to Abdul Razzaq, no run, guided to gully
88.5 Best to Abdul Razzaq, no run, left alone
88.4 Best to Abdul Razzaq, no run, defends
88.3 Best to Abdul Razzaq, no run, comes forward adn defends
88.2 Best to Abdul Razzaq, no run, angling in, left alone
88.1 Best to Abdul Razzaq, no run, defends

[shabbu1]

4 by kami

[Usman]

2 fours in the last 2 balls!

[Amjid Javed]

pak 336/6 - gr8 1st days play... good even battle!

[Shayan]

pak 336/6 - gr8 1st days play... good even battle!

;)+ ;)+

[karachiite]

I would give pak the edge. This pitch isnt as flat as bridgetown
