Poor Mahela

The pitch was so fuckin' flat that Mahela thought that perhaps, his dibbly-dobblers would get Pakistan to declare.

And he nearly succeeded, creating 2 chances, one each off Arafat and Akmal, only to see it being dropped by some clearly tired fielders!

However, I do find it hard to understand why Vaasy wasn't given more overs considering that he only gave about 1.8 runs per over (i.e.66 runs in 36 overs) while Murali gave away nearly a whole run more in his 65 overs!

Perhaps something's cooking in the boiling heat of Pakistan...
