Gut is good when gut is full.
pet thik to duniya thik.

ar deshe ashar pore ma ar dadir rannae amar pet pura full.
tai to "gut" bolche shothik kotha.

Tremendous fightback to save the test by Pakistan. I thought they were all dead and buried before the Misbah-Akmal partnership revived not only hopes for this test, but also for the series ( draw at least ). BTW, I would choose Misbah as the MOM for this effort under tremendous pressure though hard to ignore a double centurion.

i believe both misbah and wasim were dropped in single figures during their mammoth innings.

Not impressed by the kolkata pitch. The Indians are leading the series. Can't blame them of seeing these type of pitches. I would instruct our curators the same.

In all honesty, i thought that qualified as a bold declaration.

In fact i was upset! 345 to get in 82 overs - heck teams get 300+ regularly in 50 overs.

I sank in dejection. I sighed relief when Pakistan crawled at snail's pace for the first 30 overs. I was like - this team really sucks.

Disappointed with Paks last batting, they could have easily scored those runs with a beautiful batting pitch, they missed a golden chance. Kumble's declaration was a bold one.

Yes people do score 300+ in 50 overs in ODI. But the only problem with your logic is they do that in fresh pitch and in this case it was a fifth day pitch, it broke a lot (even though not as much as they predicted) and the ball was coming slower. Thats why India also couldn't score as quickly as they wanted in the 2nd innings.
