*** Official *** Pakistan in India

[Dissector]

Yeah Dravid is the one Indian batsman I trust in a fourth innings. Jaffer is looking quite good too.

A remarkable statistic from Cricinfo commentary; India has chased a 200+ target only once in India, more than 40 years ago against Australia.

How may times have we done it outside India? There was the legendary 400+ chase against the West Indies in the 70's and we managed 200+ against Australia a few years ago. Any others?

Malcam Marshal should bowle now..

[Dissector]

[Xuhaib]

[haroon510]

lol hha it is funny that sami is proving malcom marshal in the first over... dravid lucky lucky very lucky... it won't supprise me now if he wins this match for india... guys like dravid gives u one chance... if u blow it.. then u r done

 

[Perm]

Would like to see Wasim Jaffer make a good score here, needs runs under his belt.

Time to get rid of Karthik, two failures. Not good enough

 

[Evermind]

Dravid absolutely ITCHING to get out.

It was Doctrove who blew it, not the first time he's done it to Pakistan.

Yeah would love to see him see us home here. He looks such a graceful player..that backfoot push of Kaneria was superb.

he will be calling the pakistani cricket board soon... " I told u soo " lol

 

[CrazY GirL]

is doctrove somehow a relative of darrel hair?

 

[Sanz]

Can we stop talking about umpiring, please ? The way this thread it is going it seems India stands no chance if not for umpiring.

 

[Sanz]

Time to complain it to ICC that Pakistan doesn't want Doctrove in next test match.

I hope ICC accepts that request and appoints Jayprakash for next test match.

If the umpiring has been poor then it's only natural that it will be discussed.

Why do people notice poor umpiring a. when it goes against their team b. in the 4th innings ?

Isn't this the first test match Karthik hasn't made a half century in since his return to test cricket?

Those decisions are more likely to affect the result of the match, and are more noticeable.

 

[Sanz]

So the decisions that went in their team's favor wont affect the result of the match ?

I've only been following vaguely on cricinfo, so I'm not too sure what the umpiring has been like. Just saying that it's natural to complain when the umpiring doesn't work in your teams favour, although that doesn't necessarily mean I condone those that do.
