England vs Pakistan 2006 Fourth Test

[ZexyZahid]

I dropped Inzamam and Hoggard and so far Hoggard has the most wickets from England side. If Inzamam and Akmal makes runs that will make me more difficult. But I won't mind Yousuf making runs, since he is my captain.

Also it's a very big risk not including Yousuf in your team, since he is the highest Test scorer in 2006 with Younis Khan very close to him.

 

[aussie1st]

Harmisson has come back to save those guys that don't have Hoggard. Strauss and Cook again causing me problems, I need Pakistan back at the crease.

 

[ZexyZahid]

I've got Harmison and don't understand how he got those wickets after seeing him bowling yesterday. But it doesn't matter much now, since I have him in my team. Mohammad Asif is the only player yet to give some bonus. Younis Khan, Pietersen and Panesar didn't do much (yet). Another good thing is that Trescothick was gone cheaply again which helps me.

And Kaneria could be the one to have, since the way things have been going recently. I don't have him and so far the two other Pakistani bowlers did the work for me.

I have Cook as Captain , But no Strauss

 

[ZexyZahid]

Seeing the current events, how about we include umpires in the players list? If he gives an incorrect decision of an LBW or missed an edged catch taken by a fielder he will get 30 or 40 batting points and if he accuses someone of ball tempering he will get 1000 points. And the 1000 points will be awarded, since the chance for that is minimal.

What on earth is this rubbish. Bell was in and ready to score, although looked like my vCash was in major trouble Now the weather Gods can do their thing if this game is back on again.

And how would we find the incorrect decisions on the scorecard? :cool:

 

[ZexyZahid]

Well, some people watch TV and follow it and could tell us the decisions that happened, together with naming the over in which it happened. So hence you can take their word and fill it in, with confirming it by looking it up inside cricinfo commentary.

But obviously you can see this is a joke.

And I refuse to fill in this scorecard now after the happenings.

And I am surprised the vBookie has been settled as a win for England. This could have been abandoned, especially since the ways things were going, Pakistan could have won the match, but the match was influenced by uncommon happenings.

And I am not saying this since I betted on the match, also not because that Aussie1st lost 70.000 cause of this and want to save him from that loss, just want to be fair with it.

 

[Sureshot]

Well it's been settled a win as officially it goes down as an England win.

Let's be honest though Pakistan never were going to win it from that position

What do You know mr?? :
they were in a very good position at that moment and they could win the match if this didnt happen!!

 

[Hariz]

When will the scoring for this match will be done as it is practically over now.

 

[ZexyZahid]

After my brief protest, here are the final standings of the 4th Test: http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/engvpak/engine/match/225258.html

And now I see why Hariz wanted to see this competition to be rounded off. Congratulations to him. Also congratulations to Saurabh2185 and Prakash. It's an all Asian win today. Even better: the top six consists on all Asian players. What an irony after seeing this match. The great thing for Prakash is that he didn't have Mohammad Yousuf in his team. I myself didn't have Cook in my team and that seems to have made the difference.

Also congratulations to Viral for being last.

And hopefully Hair won't see this, otherwhile he might think we've cheated. :

kooljack the were implying sarcasm.

 

[saurabh2185]

Wow i never expected that from this game, as if M Yousuf had played his 2nd innings then it could be a different story. But captaining Cook paid off

Congratulations to Hariz and Prakash :happy

@Zexy : All top 3 are patch maker at PC also

 

[ZexyZahid]

Yeah, I forgot about that. That's actually a premier then that three patchmakers are among the top 3 of this competition.

The other thing I also know is that you had to wait very long to enter the top 3. And now you have become number 2 again in quick succession.
