luckyluke 2 Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Disgraceful stuff from afridi, all the more disappointing because he's a top bloke and is said to be a great character around the dressing room. Was the last person I expected this from. The ban will hurt us as well. Funny how noone's mentioning the inzamam run out though. Firstly, throwing like that is against the 'morals of the game' as they say, you hardly see it being done. Secondly and more importantly, that cant be given out. The commentators later stated that the rule book clearly says a batsmen cant be given out if he's avoiding a throw aimed directly at him and it hits the stumps. Funny how the officials missed that, even funnier how the media's ignoring it. Quite a day eh?? 58617[/snapback] If you think a batsman is out of his crease then you have every right to attempt a run out. The rule actually says a batsman is not out if he leaves his crease to avoid injury, providing he has grounded his bat behind the crease first. Which is unclear from the replays, so maybe Inzy was unlucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Kevin Pietersen and Ian Bell both hit centuries as England made a bold attempt to match Pakistan on day three of the second Test in Faisalabad. Beginning the day a daunting 349 runs behind, they closed the gap to 71. Geraint Jones fell late on for 55, to leave tail-enders Ashley Giles and Shaun Udal holding on at 391-7. Might have to revise my opinion of Bell. His patient run-building has been impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve 0 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 What I want to know is how did they miss Inzamam? He makes Gemmill look like a fly-weight. 58618[/snapback] 58623[/snapback] Man, you've gotten soft in your old age. I was waiting for a funny reply but it never came.

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Radio 5 has said the Pakistani batsman have just been offifical warned for running over the wicket. That's the second one, and apparently under new rules if they receive a 3rd official warning then England will be awarded 5 runs. If they continue to do it, England will be awarded 5 runs for every offence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inzamam has got his lip on about it apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleftpeg 0 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Aye, they said it was the longest walk to the pavilion in Test cricket history. Huffy bastards. Isn't it about time they had a pitch invasion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 I hope Flintoff gave him the look as he sprinted past him. The sort of 'take that you fucking prick' look. They'll not give you as big a clap off son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We collapsed like i'd feared. 100-1 and then 186-6. Shouldn't be too bad a day tomorrow, a result is still possible though if i were a betting man i'd put me money on a draw.

aimaad22 4156 Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 (edited) he he doesn't look too good for you lads, probably a draw now but if shoaib can ball a couple of more deliveries like the one which got rid of trescothick, then you'll be in trouble. What a magnificient ball it was!! cant see it enough times Edited November 24, 2005 by aimaad22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
