Australia v Pakistan | 1st Test | Brisbane | Dec 15-19, 2016 | Day 3

[Speedster777]

Pathetic captaincy no fourth slip

 

[QalandarFan]

Amir is bowling so good!

Some people wanted him benched for the first test!

 

[Big Mac]

Stupid shot.

He was terrified by the sheer venomous pace of Rahat at the other end and was still panicking when Amir ran in to bowl

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Beautiful bowling from Amir

 

[QalandarFan]

4 Slips and A Gully now!

 

[Snatch]

Wow Amir's been gifted some wickets of late from nothing balls.

 

[Hamza_]

Misbah has failed badly as captain now here.

 

[shaaik]

Because this is the easiest time of day to bat, they will score quickly now and declare so we start batting around the same time we did yesterday.

That makes it extremely important for us not to give them easy runs if we are to salvage some pride in this game other wise we batting under lights tonight cd very well end the game tonight.

 

[Saeed]

Rahat bhai aik hattrick ho jai.

 

[Madplayer]

Amir actually showing some talent for once.

 

[QalandarFan]

He was terrified by the sheer venomous pace of Rahat at the other end and was still panicking when Amir ran in to bowl

Yep, the sheer presence of Rahat terrifies the Australians!

 

[QalandarFan]

Amir Resurging as a Bowler, it seems.

 

[imshally81]

Beauty by Rahat

 

[Syed1]

Great bowl by Ali

 

[Madplayer]

He was terrified by the sheer venomous pace of Rahat at the other end and was still panicking when Amir ran in to bowl

He didnt want to face rahat in the next over. He chose getting out to getting annihilated.

 

[Rafay Shafiq]

Bowling well Amir but more important to make batsmen play so get wickets

 

[Speedster777]

Khuda ki kasam aek aur slip daal de yaar


Second edge flies through slip

And then they blame the bowlers for not taking wickets.

 

[QalandarFan]

Rahat bhai aik hattrick ho jai.

Aik kyu do kyu nahi?

 

[Speedster777]

Amir actually showing some talent for once.

Talent was there it was only a matter of time

 

[Big Mac]

Wow Amir's been gifted some wickets of late from nothing balls.

It's called bowling in tandem. The batsmen know they have no hope against a world class performer like Rahat so they try to survive as best they can and try to attack Amir.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to fight here , fighting and losing will be better than abject surrender.

 

[Syed1]

Aik kyu do kyu nahi?

He doesn't want the Aussies to be that scared of him, otherwise they would forfeit the other two matches

 

[shaaik]

Aik kyu do kyu nahi?

I think 3 wd make it just right. Common u expect this sort of stuff from the likes of Rahat.

 

[QalandarFan]

Rahat actually bowling well.

 

[imshally81]

Good over by Rahat...

 

[QalandarFan]

I think 3 wd make it just right. Common u expect this sort of stuff from the likes of Rahat.

Nah, even 3 doesn't seem enough.

Btw I can't stand Rahat. If you mean from the likes of Rahat fans. It's called Sarcasm.

 

[Saeed]

Aik kyu do kyu nahi?

Bhai du hat tricks nashukri Hai. Aap nay yay to suna ho ga kay lalich buri bala hai.

 

[Madplayer]

Aik kyu do kyu nahi?

Kyuki zyada daydreaming achi nahi.

 

[Ankit007]

Amir's wicket denies rahat his 10fer...

 

[Syed1]

Yaar play and miss pe play and miss

 

[Saeed]

Kyuki zyada daydreaming achi nahi.

Lol. What he gets a hattrick though?

 

[UP]

Amir bowling beautifully.

 

[Syed1]

Amir bowling beautifully.

Haters are going to come and say "but but he has gone for 21 runs of the 24 scored in total"

 

[shaaik]

Nah, even 3 doesn't seem enough.

Btw I can't stand Rahat. If you mean from the likes of Rahat fans. It's called Sarcasm.

I wonder whether he has any fans left here. If we don't dump him after this tour wd mean people at the helm of affairs in pcb including selectors ain't serious about Pakistan cricket.

 

[QalandarFan]

Amir's wicket denies rahat his 10fer...

Chalo kuch nahi, 9fer still on though.

 

[Justcrazy]

lead 311 already.

 

[QalandarFan]

I wonder whether he has any fans left here. If we don't dump him after this tour wd mean people at the helm of affairs in pcb including selectors ain't serious about Pakistan cricket.

I actually kind of liked him during the World Cup. But now....

 

[Junaids]

At the ground the scoreboard trivia question was just "who made their debuts the last time these teams played a Test here?"

The answer was easy: Adam Gilchrist, Abdul Razzaq and Scott Muller.

But it's a horribly traumatic memory.

Because as we gathered at the stadium that morning we all learned that Malcolm Marshall had just died at 41, the greatest bowler the world has ever seen.

It was a truly terrible day.

 

[Big Mac]

I wonder whether he has any fans left here. If we don't dump him after this tour wd mean people at the helm of affairs in pcb including selectors ain't serious about Pakistan cricket.

Rahat is going to destroy the Aussies, they have no chance.

 

[Justcrazy]

You will see new bowlers in WI tour.

 

[Syed1]

Rahat picks one

 

[JaDed]

Good comeback another gone!

 

[Sunny786]

 

[Speedster777]

Renshaw out

 

[Ankit007]

Rahat answers his critics [MENTION=865]Big Mac[/MENTION]

 

[Justcrazy]

Rahat is going to destroy the Aussies, they have no chance.

Rahat responds

 

[QalandarFan]

Out Rahat gets a wicket!

 

[fast1975]

yessssssssssssssssssssssss.

go PAKISTAN

GO RAHAT. bowling great today

 

[QalandarFan]

This wicket is equivalent to a hat-trick for Rahat.

 

[Saeed]

. Rahat bhai about to be on hattrick

 

[Syed1]

If we can dismiss them for a lead of 400 you never know

 

[Syed1]

Awaz tou buhat bari ayi hai iska balla hoga lol

 

[Saeed]

Review folks. Match is on.

 

[QalandarFan]

If we can dismiss them for a lead of 400 you never know

Smith is the key wicket here. Rahat firing it up! They've reviewed.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

I don't understand this Rahat. Have supported him for ages and bowling beautifully again but I can't forgive him for the first innings. He doesn't have a bowlingbrain and is too timid

 

[fast1975]

why wud misbha review this one?

unreal

review wasted

 

[Big Mac]

Rahat did it deliberately because he's desperate to get the new cherry in his hand and tear the Aussie rabbits apart

Only things that will be exploding are the hopes and dreams of the Aussie batting order

 

[Saeed]

Omg no hattrick.

 

[QalandarFan]

Yep waste of a review.

 

[UP]

If we can dismiss them for a lead of 400 you never know

Too late now... no way Pakistan can win this match. But we need to get Smith asap.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

That delivery from Rahat to Smith was very clever. Very un like Rahat

 

[Aman]

Should have enforced the follow on.

 

[QalandarFan]

Four from Smith.

 

[Big Mac]

Omg no hattrick.

It will happen, Rahat just wants to create some drama before driving the dagger into Aussie hearts.

 

[QalandarFan]

Should have enforced the follow on.

Yeah the match would've been over if they did.

 

[QalandarFan]

Edged again but didn't carry!

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

So what's the situation Guys ?? Me at work can someone post the score and how we're doing ATM ??

 

[street cricketer]

Amir has bowled with great zip in this match. Still think he needs to bowl a touch fuller.

 

[QalandarFan]

Rahat getting praised!

 

[Ab Fan]

Australians will bat till tea and declare a few after overs after that to have a burst on Pakistani batting lineup in the night session.

A target of 450+ will be on their mind and they would go for an attack mode rather than being defensive due to the initial breakthroughs.

 

[Saeed]

So what's the situation Guys ?? Me at work can someone post the score and how we're doing ATM ??

30/2 from 7 overs. Bowling is just fine.

 

[QalandarFan]

So what's the situation Guys ?? Me at work can someone post the score and how we're doing ATM ??

Aus 30-2

 

[shaaik]

So what's the situation Guys ?? Me at work can someone post the score and how we're doing ATM ??

Good for you. Rahat rekindling some false hope yet again.

Need two days of tuk marathon from Sami and Azhar

It was a truly terrible day.

Gabba has a hunted history in that regard - the day Larwood won the Ashes at Gabba, Archie Jackson died from Tuberculosis a hour before the win in a local hospital, aged 23.

 

[Hamza_]

Time to get Wahab on?

 

[Snatch]

It's perfect for Australia if they were bowled out for 180 at the dinner break. Should manage at least 5 Pakistan wickets in the evening session.

 

[Snatch]

That's great news about Asif! awesome!

 

[MMHS]

Unless it rains for Day & half, PAK has lost this Test. Now, still why the bowlers are bowling at least a yard short of Gabba length - there shouldn't be any fear for being driven & "drain" boundary. They should have seen enough of Josh yesterday.

 

[Syed1]

That's great news about Asif! awesome!

what?
