That easily part is the thing .Even if India wins only through ''difficulty''.Never that easily. Both teams are trying to out do each other in crap show.

well india has the oppertunity to put themselves in a good position now... kaneria is on who has been very very crapy lately... tanvir is trying his heart out there..the pakistani malcam marshal bowles four good deliveries and two crappy which gives india the chance to fire . shoaib is off the field...

 

[Fiery]

shoaib is off the field...

imagine my surprise

 

[Dissector]

Two big overs and it finally looks like India is coasting to victory. There 16 overs left for 38 runs so barring bad light they should do it today.

 

[biased indian]

38 more need..... as tendulkar over take Border

 

[Dissector]

A bit surprised tbh that the batsmen took the bad light. I would have thought they would have preferred to win today against a tiring attack. Still it's hard to tell from the tv how bad the light is.

Yeah I think India should have gone for the win tonight ...its only 32 runs to get

 

[haroon510]

very dissappointing performance from pakistan...a very heart breaking for me considering that it was against india...i will doo my best to avoid watching rest of series now ... if pakistan couldn't win this one.. they won't win the rest of the two matches in this series...

32 runs are plenty in test cricket, especially with poor light. Good decision IMO.

Told you all this pitch was getting easier to bat on. It either took a bad shot, or some Shoaib magic to cause India problems.

Speaking of Shoaib, he is frickin' brilliant. What a gun, was the best player today easily.

Do people still want Jaffer dropped by the way? Played a vital innings.

I do... his absance can make it easy for pakistan to win the next match..

 

[AKkAz]

India on route for a great victory!!

 

[Laurrz]

bring back Asif (if he's fit) or Gul even... take Sami away..and you got a very very good attack..best in the world probably... mayb bring in Afridi for that hack Hameed too

India have won the battle but not the war.. the next two tests wil be great..this has set up a fantastic series

I still want him dropped. That being said, he looked a class act today and should probably stay until a suitable replacement who is in domestic form can be found.

So do you want him dropped or not? If so, for who?

Really, it would be so awesome if Asif and Gul were healthy right now. Shoaib bowling with fire alongside those two would be a sight to behold.

 

[Jono]

Is it true that Akhtar, Asif and Gul have never all bowled together in an international match?

If so, that's a real disappointment, and quite frankly I'd be pissed off if I was a Pakistani fan.

 

[silentstriker]

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

When the umpiring is bad, I think its certainly acceptable to talk about it and point it out. Whether it has an effect on the result is irrelevant to me. The fact was that there was a decision to be made, and the umpire failed to give the correct one.

32 runs are plenty in test cricket, especially with poor light. Good decision IMO.

Yup, with Shoaib bowling, a small mistiming could hurt you pretty bad. Unless the weather forecast was bad for the next day, you'd always take the light.

 

[Majin]

Yeah I'd love to see them bowling together as well, even if it was against us.

Also, love Dada so much. Once again sticking two fingers up to his constant critics
