Pakistan in South Africa

[icyman]

Well they seem to have held on pretty well there.
A target of around 200 might prove to be good enough only if the Africans can pick them up early.

akmal needs to be dropped

from the best hes turned to the worst in a matter of 1 year

 

[Dare]

leave it to pollock and boucher to frustrate a team, they did it in the India series and are doing it in this one too.

 

[Gunner786]

200 on this pitch is still gettable

lets hope they keep it under 200

 

[evertonfan]

200 is definitely a good total to defend on this pitch but i'm still regarding Pakistan as favourites to win. The pressure is on them though because if they don't win this then they can't win the series.

Christ. And only a month or so ago You were biting my head off for even suggesting that Akmal Wasn't a good Keeper.
Get some Consistancy Mate.

Havent noticed Akmal recently.He was in great form last time round.
I'd really like to see Zulqarnain get a game.
Saw him in the U-19 World Cup in Bangladesh,he's a fine keep.

I wouldn't bother arguing with him mate. He's fickle-minded so much to the point that if Akmal scored a hundred in the next game he would say he's the best in the world again.

Asif needs to bowl dont really care if he has to bowl 15 more overs, hes the only one that can get a wicket for Pakistan at the moment and if Pakistan wants the target to be 200 Asif needs to bowl.

yea Danish Kaneria finally someone other than Asif gets the crucial wicket.

wouldnt be suprised to se Kamran droped, cost pakistan 5-6 wickets this match and his bating has been average, the backup can probably do better.

:hpraise :happy , congrats to Asif, 2nd 5 for this series, steped it up after Shoaib got injured.

i would bring sami on now

give ntini and nel a atste of their own medicine

edit: sami is on now

 

[aussie_ben91]

They should've kept Asif on or put Hafeez on instead.
Sami will just leak more runs.

 

[evertonfan]

I doubt they'll be tasting their own medicine when he's tossing up juicy long hops for them.

except Nel and Ntini can actually bowl over 90mph

 

[aussie_ben91]

Spin will get the job done. I'd bring Hafeez on from the other end and wait for Nel or Ntini to scoup one up.

How much did Asif pay his mate for this innings ?
