Australia v Pakistan | 1st Test | Brisbane | Dec 15-19, 2016 | Day 5

These are extremely poor tactics from Australia - has to be said. I mean there are so many runs to be scored, with only two wickets remaining and your field display shows as if the opposition is within touching distance.
 
Beta if we win this, I will never complain in my life again.

I am sure he must be distraught that Misbah and Younis team won.

I would love it, but the video on the app on my phone has it at 433-8. I wouldn't count my chickens yet......
 
CRICINDO playing it down as "keeping hopes alive". This is the greatest fight back ever, doesn't matter we win or lose.
 
Lol at Australia.

Steve smith must be the biggest donkey in the world for that declaration.

Nothing wrong with the declaration. The target is well in excess of anything that's been chased in the 100+ year history of test cricket

Not to mention Pak had been bowled out for under 150 in the first innings. And it's a day night game
 
One magical delivery by Starc or one mistake by Yasir or Shafiq will mean that its game over for Pakistan

If someone thinks 490 runs arent enough to win a test, you gotta say they dont understand cricket.
 
I'm the first to say that Pakistan has turned around a lot of momentum.

But when Australia takes the last wicket that will turn right back around again.

I'm as Eeyore-like in my expectations as [MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION].

Everything in my brain tells me that 492 is an impossible Test target until one day when two bowlers break down and there are 6 or 7 wickets left.
 
Why am i geting the same feeling of excitement as i did in 92 final....lol
 
If you can't defend 490 runs then you deserve to lose. Nothing wrong in not enforcing the follow on. Wrong is defensive captaincy by Smith here. In start today, he didn't attack with so many runs in bag. Anyway, plenty of runs still left, but hopefully Pakistan can get close without losing one wicket here.

492 might be impossible, but 490 is looking increasingly likely
 
This is so tense glad my xmas holidays have started and I can watch it at home.
 
Long enough stand, time for Rahat.

Mind you, I said that Australia's target of 367 at Hobart in 1999-2000 against Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Saqlain was impossible too.........
 
Crickey it's happening! It's happening!

Bet Steve Smith is gonna have a grey hair or two at the end of the match.:smith
