Pakistan tour of New Zealand 2009

[aussie1st]

1 wicket can change thing, Pakistan haven't got away from NZ yet.

 

[age of the fall]

Why are the players wearing the red ribbons on their sleeves?

 

[Mike23]

These two are the most boring openers i've seen..*yawn*

Why are the players wearing the red ribbons on their sleeves?

AIDS awareness, quite obvious that both Butt and Farhat playing for their own hides :laugh

 

[Howsie]

Darryl Tuffey bowling down wind and all he can manage is 130K, my god that's average. Tim Southee must be having a chuckle as he goes back north, how he didn't get a run in this game after just grabbing 8/27 astounds me.

 

[CaptainOZ]

I'm not totally convinced by these two yet, but they've held their wickets....

NZ has not asked them any tough questions yet, even Vettori's 1st over was unusually loose.

Is Southee playing domestic cricket this week? If so how is he goin

Hmarka added 3 Minutes and 40 Seconds later...

Hard to imagine this attack troubling the Australians

 

[Howsie]

Yea Southee should be playing for ND today, but it's raining and ND are batting anyway. But he just took 8/27 against a very good batting line-up (and ND lost that game).

Vettori picking his "mates" isn't always going to work.

NZ or Pak?

 

[CaptainOZ]

It's a dreadfully slow run rate. Butt is 29 off 101 balls :sleep

CaptainOZ added 2 Minutes and 1 Seconds later...

And now he's out.

Hard to imagine this attack troubling the Australians

Bond, Southee and O'Brien should do a lot better.

Good spell this from O'Brien though, almost had Akmal early. What's the bet he goes on and makes another 100.

Howsie added 6 Minutes and 4 Seconds later...

Vetoty!!!!!

 

[CaptainOZ]

Aha, and now Vettori gets Farhat. Both openers gone and NZ will be pleased.

 

[-D-S-B-]

Well this boring test match Jst got exciting..... 2 wickets Danny boy. U legend
And a huge one with yousuf

 

[angryangy]

Oh dear. One wicket certainly did change things. After perhaps a lack of early pressure, some good bowling strategies in play.

 

[Ari]

Looks like I got home just in time was walking in the door when the first wicket went down.
