**Official** Pakistan in Sri Lanka 2012

[Cruxdude]

Pot and kettle if they have complained after playing Murali and defending him for so many years.

Really? Murali did not bend his elbow, if they feel Ajmal sends it they have every right to complain.

that matter has been cleared by the ICC a few times IIRC

 

[Flem274*]

Well that was an unexpected score to check...

 

[smash84]

you probably didn't know it is the SSC where it is being played at

 

[flibbertyjibber]

104-2 today is a collapse on that track.

After that long delay, only 7 overs lost, so Pakistan can bat on for a good while yet. Good to see Sri Lanka using a bowler with an average of 269 btw. Don't they have the all-time record holder on that score?

 

[smash84]

pak should bat all day today and then declare tomorrow morning.......then get ready to field for the next 3 days

 

[stumpski]

If they keep going at this rate, they can get them in for the last half hour tonight - 50 in the last ten overs. 150 up for Azhar, quite a good rate for him.

Is Randiv the second best spinner in Sri Lanka? 24-0-104-0.

Heh, spurred him into taking a wicket!

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Damn, really wanted Azhar to get double

 

[stumpski]

Must be so annoying to get out just before a rain delay, to see the other players running off as you're taking your pads off. Early tea being taken.

 

[smash84]

this is so annoying......I hope the rain makes the pitch a real minefield and SL get bundled out for less than 200 in both their innings

 

[smash84]

lol.....what a road

 

[Prince EWS]

Adnan Akmal getting off the mark is probably the biggest indication that this pitch is a road yet.

[smash84]

Cheema getting flayed by both tildil and sangers

 

[smash84]

[Lostman]

Waiting for the SSC to get an official warning for being a joke of a wicket.

Waiting for the SSC to get an official warning for being a joke of a wicket.

We saw what sort of wickets get warnings when AUS toured SL last year. ICC are perfectly satisfied with SSC type pitches, which is a tragedy really. It's not T20s that are killing Test cricket you see.

so awta
