'Official' Pakistan in West Indies

[Teja.]

Has Ajmal been really horrible to watch, as he normally is with that kind of action?

Ignoring his action, He's been a treat to watch.

 

[Austerlitz]

Crucial runs being added here.If they can get to 200 will be a psychological boost.

 

[Howe_zat]

Gul will be disappointed with this spell. There's some uneven movement off the track for him and he's bowling full tosses.

Not getting any yorkers right at all.

 

[Teja.]

If Gul repeats 82.3 five times, He'll get a wicket.

Get Riaz in for Gul plz.

rampaul showing more application playing spin off the backfoot than the top order.

True.

Playing spin better than the top order.

 

[Woodster]

Got to get Wahab back into the attack against these two to bowl quickly and straight.

 

[Howe_zat]

Already the third best partnership of the innings.

 

[Austerlitz]

Hmm..looks like it will be 200 after all.

 

[Cevno]

Gone.

Bringing Hafeez back worked .
Should have brought him on earlier.

 

[Teja.]

Carn Pakistan!

 

[Howe_zat]

Or maybe not.

Why need turn when you have Hafeez? Clever bowling, to be fair.

Bishoo in now, I can think of easier situations for your maiden Test innings.

Edit - 200 up.

 

[Austerlitz]

I want roach to slog hafeez for a couple of sixes tbh,will be fun.

Btw,does anyone else think that UDRS benefits Pakistani bowlers,specially spinners more than anyone else? In both the ODI's and Tests?

The Type of bowlers they have they hit the pad on the front foot a lot of times and with the UDRS and the umpires willing to give more such type of LBW'S ,it gives them more wickets.
This benefited Afridi a lot in the WC too.

UDRS Would have helped someone like Kumble no ends during his career.
He used to get so many LBW's turned down on the front foot and even remember Umpires turning down his shouts as he used to block their view in his follow through.

 

[Teja.]

220-230 is par IMO.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

What's wrong with Gul. Why is he bowling in the low 80's.

Think you're probably right. 4 lbws for spinners today, 10-20 years ago none of them would have been given.

Would've paid to see an early 00s Murali bowl to these bad boys on this pitch.
