South Africa v Pakistan Official Tour Thread

[Wall]

Runs are coming to easily. Wickets required. A-sap.

Yep, if we not getting wickets, then runs must be cinstricted

 

[Ecco]

This opening partnership by Pakistan is quite interesting. Debutante (Masood), and a guy I have never heard of before(Manzoor)(not that i follow pakistan cricket much).

On paper, this pakistan batting lineup is not that great.

This could turn ugly if we don't apply pressure and get wickets.

Steyn has been to expensive, I'd rather Merkel be bowling right now.

Maybe his height will get extra bounce and cause a bit more problems.

Thanks! My phone was charging under a colleagues desk, I got it back now

It's just too easy for the Pakistanis at the mo. Is it our lack of match fitness or play at this level that is coming back to bite?

 

[Creag]

Another session won by Pakistan Someone needs to grill the lads in the lunch break today.

 

[Crickey]

Debutantes doing well for the Pakis...

Well only Masood is on debut. He is 1 away from a debut 50 and Pakistan 3 away from 100.

 

[Ecco]

50 for Masood. Gotta give him a hand for that effort.

 

[Ecco]

100 for no loss for the Pakistanis. Not looking good for SA.

This is the 1st 100 run stand for Pakistan in 22 innings

 

[NeonNinja]

We're in deep blue stuff.

 

[SaiyanZ]

I doubt that they will bowl us out for less than 300 again in the 2nd innings. A few of our wickets were soft dismissals. So if we can restrict them to say 350 max then we will still have a good shot at winning. Otherwise it will be a draw, since if they can bat for so long, we can bat for longer.

 

[Creag]

I'd say it's the deep stinky brown stuff...

Number 1 and 2 best ranked spinners in the world, 3 day old pitch... ye sure.

 

[Creag]

At long bloody last.

/heaves huge sigh of relief...



Edit: it's a pity that he didn't refer that, did Masood

Still it was a good debut innings.
