fineleg Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 yes fineleg.. meanwhile, were u so excited to see pathan and karthik play some defensive strokes??? they were just getting pathetic.. it was so boring.. crowd was leaving too.. why not go for victory even if its difficult to get.. Tics, I'd rather see our bats score 50 in this 100% draw, rather than watch butt, hameed and younis khan make 50s in a draw...let their(pak) bowlers waste their energy Link to comment
fineleg Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 plus why give batting practice to them? eg hameed has been outta runs. let him stay that way Link to comment
Guest HariSampath Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 why not set a target of 320 in 60 overs and challenge Pathan and Harbhajan to get 6-7 wkts ? Link to comment
chanakya Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 why not set a target of 320 in 60 overs and challenge Pathan and Harbhajan to get 6-7 wkts ? because they can't ? Link to comment
fineleg Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 because they can't ? :haha: Link to comment
fineleg Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 So Tics, are you enjoying after declaration. We have learnt that AK got 3 wickets, we all know he can get wickets. What abt other bowlers? Bhajji?? We have learnt Rudy screws up by not giving Faisal Iqbal plumb lbw (middle and leg, ball keeping low) Other than this, whats the purpose of declaration - the Faisal Iqbals are getting batting practice thats all! 1. AK gets wickets 2. Rest of bowlers not getting through the lineup 3. Umpires screw up 4. Some general Pak batsman getting some 4s and practice Is this better than watching some of our own bats score 50s...well maybe, maybe not. I guess it doesnt matter. Link to comment
fineleg Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Adding to #4 above ^ A poor series for Faisal Iqbal turns ends up ok with a 50 for him. This is exactly what I did not want to watch. We should have batted through - this is my opinion. Why the hell should we give batting practice to Pak? Link to comment

This is exactly what I did not want to watch. We should have batted through - this is my opinion. Why the hell should we give batting practice to Pak? 7 wickets down.. what happend hence i wanted declaration.. pitch is just nasty to bat on.. we should have bowled and we did later thats good.. we got 7 wickets.. now that might be end but still an interesting game.. light offered..

Mr. Wicket Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Agree. Should have declared far earlier. With the pitch, there was no chance of Pakistan chasing down a big target like that. Link to comment
putrevus Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Kumble negative captaincy which is in general indian captaincy is negative they play for safe rather than forcing the result.they should have declared at lunch Link to comment
The Outsider Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 As I've said repeatedly, strange things happen on the last day of a test in India. Only bad light managed to save Pakistan. We still had 18 overs to knock over the tail. Link to comment
Guest HariSampath Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Tics....can you PLEASE change this thread title...

Anakin Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 This pitch became very hard to bat on, should've declared earlier. But a series win is a series win, so congrats :yay: Link to comment
