Pakistan in England/Scotland 2006

[usy]

Well, apart from his Pakistan origins.

I know because Amir Khan the English boxer's his cousin (got it from cricinfo).

Anyway danish well batted, GET IQBAL OUT! BIG TIME! Keep kaneria if you want .

Very little period. Absolute max 2 overs - probably 1.

Yes but i'm pessimistic, it's probably a perk of the job of an Everton fan. This is what Pakistan where so good at in the winter too, they took wickets in these tiny spells.

 

[usy]

Well it's a diffrent team now, we had Shoaib then, he gets wickets very quick. He got most wickets in the winter test series VS England.

 

[sohum]

Pakistan could definitely use the services of Shoaib Akhtar in this test. I hope this one ends up in a Pakistani victory (aka English collapse--haven't seen that in a while ) and the fourth test sees Shoaib back in action. Wishful thinking, of course.

Nice hard fought cricket today. That Mohammad Yousuf is a git. Anyway I expect this to be a draw.

WoW, first time in this series Pakistan getting the lead!
Cool, also very funny D-Kaneria was the 3rd highest scorer and his previous was 15 and now 29 runs haha this is soo cool! Cause Kaneria is like the "one who can't bat" in the team, fun to see him get big score!

Btw... ^^^^^Youre a git!

 

[Skater]

Btw... ^^^^^Youre a git!

I mean that Yousuf always scores highly when he gets going.

 

[Hariz]

What a batsman Mohammad Yousuf is. Another fantastic innings and falling just short of another double century away from home. He and Younis alone brought Pakistan back onto track. Just need some good stuff from Gul and Sami and Pakistan will be in contention for a victory.

 

[RoboRocks]

Yousuf and Younis have got Pakistan up to England.
Anybody can win from this point.

 

[anakwalajinn]

Don't forget Kaneria, his confidence will be high afrer 29!
I was in total shock when I came home from work and saw that!
Skateboarder: My mistake!

 

[Sureshot]

I completley agree with you, this is what I say in every thread when the umpire debate props up.



He is trying to impress Fletcher by bowling like Giles.

Good catch Tres although it's a bit late now

I fancy Pakistan to strike in this little period too.

I feel sorry for Inzi, Younis and Yousef though; If it weren't for them Pakistan would have been bowled out for 147.

Bowling like Giles?

You serious?

And be a little patient with Panesar you'd expect a bit of tiredness after 48.4 overs. He has taken more wickets today than England spinners in the last decade. Also taken as many wickets as Warne at Leeds! Infact at a better average and strike rate too.

Warne has bowled 119 overs at Leeds for Aus at an average of 89.33 in 3 matches.

Yousuf was dropped on 5 though! Oh well can't have a go at Colly with some of the catches he does take.

I can't see Kaneria coming into this really, no spin and if it is it's slow.

A draw written all over it, The Oval should suit us though as it tends to be a bouncy pitch.

Amazing batting from Younis Khan and Mohommad Yousuf. lol, funny dismissal from Inzy!!!

This will probably end up a draw, the pitch is still prettry flat. Pakistan would need to bowl out England pretty cheaply to have a hope chasing.

Woah! Mate I wasn't having a go at Panesar, he bowled superbly. Drewska asked why he went around the wicket and I joked that he was bowling like Giles to impress Fletch.

Monty Panesar is an absolute gem and I was delighted when he took that catch.

Woah, Remember at the Oval you'll be facing a whole different Pakistani Bowling Attack, with Akthar, and Asif.

Why is everyone so confident about Akhtar being fit for The Oval? Even if he is, he won't be bowling at 90mph. I back England to win at The Oval.
