Despite the interruptions on Day 2, Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman's XI still are in the driver's seat in this practice match and lead by 107 runs.
by Pakpassion Staff (3rd October 2013)
Only 28 overs of play were possible on Day 2 of the ongoing practice match in Lahore between Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman's XI and Chief Minister XI.
Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman's XI resumed play on 134/3 with upcoming batsmen Azhar Ali (48*) and Asad Shafiq (15*) at the crease and with a 44-run lead in the 1st innings.
After bowling out Chief Minister XI for 90 on Day 1, Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman's XI were full favorites to put the match away. Some tight bowling by Chief Minister XI's bowlers, however, made sure that it wasn't going to be an easy job.
In the 28 runs that were played out on Day 2, Azhar Ali and Asad Shafiq were only able to add 63 runs to their total. They moved on to 80* and 46*, respectively. While it is encouraging to see the two back in form after under-whelming performances in the Zimbabwe series, the pace at which proceedings moved along is an ongoing concern.
Despite the interruptionso on Day 2, Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman's XI still are in the driver's seat in this practice match and lead by 107 runs. They will look to score some quick runs early on Day 3 and then set Chief Minister XI a target for their bowlers to defend.
