*Official* Pakistan v South Africa in UAE

[smash84]

lol......even without Amla, SA are going to walk all over Pakistan

 

[Spark]

Pakistan, in the name of all that is holy, stop getting out to Imran Tahir.

 

[Cabinet96]

Pakistan should have played Rehman over Babar, simply because he's a better batsman.

So it's going to be two tests in a row in Dubai where the first innings total is under 100.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Oh lord. I always laugh at people who say Pakistan are good players of spin, Panesar was bad enough - but Imran Tahir?!?

 

[kykweer.proteas]

200-220?

 

[Cabinet96]

Pakistan, in the name of all that is holy, stop getting out to Imran Tahir.

In better news, looks like you guys will be getting another look at him in February.

 

[nsniks]

Tahir gets third

 

[smash84]

Imran ****ing tahir

 

[Black_Warrior]

and Pakistan continues their awesome legacy of reviving the careers of crap spinners..

But still its only 6 wickets down I'd stay its still very much Pakistan's session

Not sure he is tbh. Not much in it in any case. Has Rehman actually recovered from his injury anyway?

 

[Maximas]

wtf lol, when I left it was 1/30

 

[Agent Nationaux]

wtf lol, when I left it was 1/30

Just checked the score......wtf!

Imran Tahir of all people!!!!!

Robbie P must be just as shocked.

Well Rehman always batted above Ajmal, the same can't be said for Babar. I've not heard anything about his injury, but I didn't assume "soreness" to be a particularly long term thing, and assumed they'd just picked Babar instead because he did OK in the last game. I'm probably wrong

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Only one boundary scored. perfect bowling display. south africa have to keep it up and beat this score today. This game wont see 4 days. dissmal pitch

 

[Agent Nationaux]

I'm guessing there is new ball swing on offer for Steyn to be bowling so good?

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Good of Pakistan to offer a sporting wicket. Could have prepared a flattish pitch or the one like last match where there wasn't any swing.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Steyn building up the pressure and Tahir getting the wickets. Could not have planned it any better.

 

[salman85]

I'll be happy with 150 now.Or even 100.

Or even 75.

On a side not - **** Imran Tahir!!

 

[kykweer.proteas]

pressure.

 

[harsh.ag]

I have a really weird feeling that Pakistan will be outdone by the man they least expect - Imran Tahir.

Salman predicted it two days ago
