Pakistan vs West Indies (2 tests)

[Del125763]

Noman Ali still thinking about using the review, when Pakistan have none left......

 

[010203]

Some excessive appealing there from Noman Ali.

 

[Del125763]

I know Aussies like to get into Joel Wilson but by jeez the West Indies fans must feel like Rod Tucker is their Joel Wilson right now.

 

[Gethelred]

I've thought this for a while, but Noman Ali is about the most innocuous bowler to just get a roll on and go through a team and get you wondering where the **** did that come from and how it all went wrong.

 

[PhatBoy]

40 more. Come on. Just 40 more.

 

[Gethelred]

Abrar might as well be bowling slow-medium pace, given the amount of overspin on the thing. He's not going to get the crazy sidespin you might see from the others.

 

[Del125763]

Noman and Sajid are getting tired. The have bowled the majority of the overs today. West Indies now looking to attack the 3rd spinner coming on now.

 

[PhatBoy]

17 more

 

[Gethelred]

... that was out. Lucky there.

 

[Del125763]

Not sure how these guys go about it, they are looking to bat as much time now.Id imagine if this goes to a Day 3, wicket will get harder to bat on.

It’s going to day three barring Pakistan being all out today in which case it’s already too tough to bat on.

The longest session is already out of the way (they’re playing 2.5 hour first sessions, 90 minute third sessions)

These two just need to keep playing as they have been. The last three can attack as they did in the first innings, it was a good modus operandi for them

 

[Gethelred]

Well batted, Sinclair.

 

[PhatBoy]

Motie or Roach just has to support Imlach for the time being then look to attack if/when the next wicket falls.

We already have enough runs to potentially win the test. Another 50 makes it tantamount to a 350+ chase on a normal wicket

 

[Gethelred]

That's close to the worst LBW review ever.

Standing with both feet behind the crease, hit you on the kneeroll in front of middle and off, back leg.

If you have 2 reviews left and 3 wickets in hand, its worth using it , even if it looks stupid.

 

[Gethelred]

I like Warrican, he's a goer. Will do what he needs to for the team.

I understand the logic, but it's still a genuine waste of time.

It was so out if he has any conception of where his stumps were he knew he was cooked. All it achieved was taking 2-4 minutes outnof the game.

 

[Gethelred]

Umpire's call on impact, so he's out.

Doesn’t let anything faze him either. That little carry on from Sajid a few overs ago when he swung and missed couldn’t have been any more of a waste of time given who it was directed at

 

[PhatBoy]

Time to swing lads.

Pick your mark, Roachy

Need that 7 more runs. 17 would be better and 27 better still, but you could settle for just 7.

I’m just loving watching one of the greatest modern servants of WI cricket at the moment. Roachy answers the call.

 

[Gethelred]

That's a cracking shot, Roach!

he needs to answer the call with the bat, if he's unable to bowl

 

[PhatBoy]

You can trace basically every bit of this back to the instant I said ‘I will see you during the series against Australia’ after the seventh wicket fell
