:love Mitch

Doesn't look bad for batting today, but maybe that's because Gul keeps pegging it at Johnson's head.

:love Gul.

Been a horrible spell from Gul, bowled far too short, but he gets his man eventually. The Aussies should send Smith in next, looks a better player and in better form than North or Paine.

 

[TumTum]

Oh dear missed the full toss.

Hmm, usually when Mitch passes his average you can expect an onslaught. Heaps of pressure on North now, fail and he's in danger of being ousted for the second test.

 

[angryangy]

ooh rudi pushed afridi ban him

Cricinfo version:

I'm bored, alright

Pakistan really need to get Australia out know or else they've got no chance. Don't think Pakistan will manage 280 as it is but for the very maximum they need to get Australia out before they get past 320.

When they do get around to batting I think alot rests on the first partnership; if they bat well and get a century partnership then they have every chance. If not there's going to be alot of pressure on the two debutantes.

Come on Pakistan!

They getting any spectators there?

 

[aussie1st]

North will get a 100 now, hes past the dreaded under double figure stage.

 

[angryangy]

jinxed

 

[Themer]

Just what Pakistan needed but is it too late?

I think they've still got half a chance but as I said earlier their opening partnership needs to fire.

 

[King Pietersen]

Steve Smith century coming up TBH.

 

[Insomniac]

Yeah everyone of us (except Insomniac) knew we'd collapse but still it is pretty disappointing.
As for Watson, he actually got the ball to swing rather then reverse here! It was a good spell, one that used the conditions better than most.

Do you really want me to come on here and say, oh we'll get out for 140?

Insomniac added 1 Minutes and 53 Seconds later...

Alright, if everybody scores 31 runs, we will win the game (assuming we bowl them out under 310).

Insomniac added 3 Minutes and 22 Seconds later...

I'm losing my patience with Paine and Smith. Seriously, knock them over already.
