[ZexyZahid]

Believe it or not: I had Tanvir Ahmed in my team, when I read there was moisture on the pitch. Eventually I had to choose between him, Gul or Steyn. Eventually I chose Gul. So far it seems a wrong choice.

 

[Akash00]

Wahab Riaz was injured in the last test, right? Could I get him replaced?

 

[ZexyZahid]

It's done. Al the other replacements for him can be done till the start of the 2nd day of this Test.

At the moment it's good to have the combination of Kallis and AB de Villiers.

 

[Akash00]

It was a last minute change for me to switch Smith with AB.

And my captain has already scored a hundred!

 

[ZexyZahid]

Many people have Kallis as captain. It's more what the other players will do. There are already a couple of bad decisions made in this Test and it's not helping my Pakistani bowlers.

 

[Abhas]

Can I have Wahab Riaz replaced?

 

[ZexyZahid]

It's done. He is replaced by Abdur Rehman. I can make an exception and replace him with Sami.

 

[Abhas]

Nah, let him be. I just realised, I have Smith as captain.

 

[AkshayS]

Smith as captain for me too.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Whoever doesn't have AB de Villiers is already out of competition. Gul really needs to start taking wickets.

 

[Akash00]

AB captain anyone?

 

[aussie1st]

Geez the game I drop AB and he does this to me.

 

[ZexyZahid]

So far my bowlers' decisions didn't really work out well. Steyn grabbed 4 wickets, while Gul didn't take any wicket at all.

The top 6 Pakistani batsmen bat pretty well, except the 2 Pakistani batsmen I have in my team.
