Pakistan Tour To Sri Lanka May-June 2012

[Sami Kumar]

It'll be better if we win the toss and bat.Chasing in fourth innings always cause us trouble while we can rely on our bowlers in the forth innings to defend a decent total.If we only could beat SL in this match,we'll have a chance in this series otherwise if it ends as a draw then it may be too difficult for us to pull up win in the final test.Expecting a batting paradise for next two tests so our bowlers need to bowl well

we have a good winning chance

Yes we have to bat first and give as much high total as we can to Sri Lanka in fourth innings as our bowling is dominating currently.

----------

A confidence and support is needed by coach.

 

[Paki007]

wow what a start for us! professor finally getting some serious amount of runs.i liked the aggressive approach of taufiq umar.we are moving towards a big big total here.

 

[Sami Kumar]

This is really excellent performance.i hope Hafeez scores 200.

Drawn match on cards.

You mean its fixed?

What a hard working day for Hafeez and Allah bless hard workers with something special and I think Hafeez will be blessed by 450 from Allah . INSHALLAH Hafeez will score 450 .

 

[Paki007]

this is a dead pitch.nothing is there for the bowlers.i know it is too early to say but it looks like it may end in a draw.piles of runs will come from both sides

 

[Sami Kumar]

why draw,why not Pakistan winning.

NO , if there is no benefit for bowlers on this pitch but then this means that there is no benefit for Sri Lanka bowlers because Paksitan bowlers can bowl very better form the bowlers of Sri Lanka on any type of pitch then this means that even lead of 200 will be given to Sri lanka in fourth innings could be very easy for Pakistan to win.

 

[sami ullah khan]

I shudder to think what Sanga and Mahela will do us on this pitch. They will be very hard to dislodge but standard of umpiring is definitely better with Taufel. That improves the chances of our bowlers.

 

[badvintage]

Pakistan played great out there and finally Hafeez showed something, I hope he beats his record and goes for 200.

Yeah that's why Sanga most of the times become almost impossible to get out Remember,this is not England it's Sri Lanka we are playing against and at their home grounds.200 to chase for them won't be that difficult.Our batting which struggle to get past even 100 gets 334/1 here so it is easy to assume how much they'll get when they come to bat after watching them bat in the first test. .We can only hope we get them out twice but chances are looking thin TBH.

Last time we played here SL scored 390/4 in the 4th innings to draw the match.While Pakistan had scored 420+ in the third innings.So it seems batting becomes easier here as the time goes on.And for a recent result when Aus played here there were piles of runs as SL just got 2 overs to bat in the 4th innings

No no man , our bowling is much more better then Sri Lanka and also no one knows how to use Pakistan bowlers in test better then Misbah and sice Saeed Ajmal has joined the international sqaud and Aizaz Cheema also ,Have you ever seen any team scoring 400 and this was the first time any team score above 400 because Misbah was not playing.

 

[Sulaiman7]

Now I know why Hafeez was not playing well in the first test match , because the captain pressure , now the captain pressure is on Misbah and so thats why Hafeez will Inshallah score 300 . Altough Hafeez is in full form in this series and I hpe that he will dominate in bowling also.
