He looked at all sea against fast bowling at the beginning of every test innings he played, even in the century he scored against NZ he could have been out a few times early on.
Probably better than our best batsman. This has been a good contest so far, but I am not looking forward to the bloodbath that is about to come when we bat. Good cricket will turn into comedy cricket.

Ah come on. Still the pitch is not batting friendly at all, is one of those pitches where I would not be surprised to see a bad side post a sub 100 score (blaming then the pitch).

Nothing that Younus Khan and Misbah can't handle, mind, but NZ or BAN would be really struggling here today

Was there any instance where the average of averages of the top 7 or for that matter whole team was higher than the current SA line up? Not sure how to find it out, but very difficult to find some team toppling this..

Its a bit similar to when Indian fans complain after their team have scored 350..
Its a bit hard for others to understand.
For Pakistan to beat South Africa, they have to bowl out South Africa for under 150.
Any target over 150 in the fourth innings is too much for Pakistan.
So from the perspective, 29/0 and now 76/2 IS pathetic.
I know this was ages ago but...

With your logic if you set a target of 50 and bowl ****ing well to get the opposition 50/4 on the way there, you bowled pathetically.

I'm also going to assume 213-5 against the best batting lineup in the world means the bowlers have been terrible for Smali. :p

I dont like this scorecard - everyone getting a start and getting out is the sign of good wicket but poor cricket ( batting )

Oh fortuna, you vicious slut, as Ignatius Reilly would have said. Faf's luck wheel has been going up for too long, it was about time it spun backward a bit.

Elgar's pendulum forward defense is something wonderful to behold

EDIT: Too bad we'll have to wait for the 2nd innings to see it again. Hopefully.

REEDIT: Hell I'm on drugs, it was Peterson.

Misbah knows his players so well. Knows Hafeez has taken wickets bowling with the new ball and gave him the 2nd one halfway through his over. Top stuff.
