Australia v Pakistan | 2nd Test | Melbourne | Dec 26-30, 2016 | Day 3

freakin wahab

3 no balls in a row....the guy does not even know his run up after 7 years. why is he playing for pakistan
 
Pak team and riaz fully deserve this, this is no bad luck, this is result of pathetic attitude and lack of common sense. I would have dropped this brainless bowling machine, after 10 test at max.
 
so another scenario could be , australia score 600 in 130 overs and we get out under 150 and lose by an innings.
 
How Do these guys can even imagine of winning a test down under after making such childish blunders.

That happened in Mumbai and Chennai test's recently but for that to happen Warner or Smith have to score 150/ 200 at a fast rate. Possible but less likely, PAK and Misbah should not be complacent because there is 443 on board.

The way they are going , they will have 600 on board this time tomorrow. We dont look like taking a wicket anyway.
 
This is foolishness from Misbah .. take him off already !
 
I would take Ishant Sharma over Wahab Riaz.

whab bowling no ball after no ball after no ball

i feel sorry for bim. he is actually bowling really good(for a change) but now he is bowling 3 no balls in one over

But what if he told Wahab to forget about no-balls and wides and just bowl phaaaaaaaaaaast. I thought that kind of thinking is what legends were made of at the MCG? :ik :wasim
 
The problem here is we have no genuine wicket taker in our bowling lineup , amir is good for 3 overs and sohail for first spell and yasir shah is redundant here.
 
You can't keep bowling 8-9 balls overs for too long.

Not misbahs fault , not everyone responds well to encouragement.
 
30-32 overs and 150+ runs are too many. Need to bowl some tight overs otherwise you have no control over game. Every 5 overs , I see 25 runs added.
 
and wahab has left the ground...completely destroyed and disheartened

pakistan bowling in complete disarray ..aussies taking revenge so painfully

Did you even see that spell?!? It was very very good . . and on any other day, they would have taken 3 wickets minimum . .

I have been hearing that every match recently. Unfortunately, looking good doesnt result in wickets. Srinath spent his entire career looking good and beating bats multiple times an over
 
Inzamam is responsible for this , he made no changes in bowlers , same set of them bowling from UAE to here.
 
guys,,,lets take our spirit up

ONE WICKET....WARNER. JUST ONE WICKET OF WARNER WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING.

lets stay positive. e just need warner and things will slow down
 
We have such a pathetic bowling attack.

Junaids will be opening a new Asif thread any time now.
 
Amir has been very unlucky you have to give him that, drop catches and countless missed edges, can be very disheartening.
 
Wahab was, is and will always be a brainless cricketer. Only in Pakistan will you find so much suppot for players like him because they are "exciting" or "fast"
 
This shows how good the pitch was .

Pakistan would be lucky to get a draw here , thanks to rain.

You summed it up well. No where such a brainless player play more than 5 tests , thats enough to understand his worthlessness.
 
This Test could go the Abu Dhabi 2015 way. Pakistan putting a good total, England (Australia) responding with a better total and then attempting to force the issue on day 5 and Pakistan crumbled because they didn't know how to plan their innings.

Well, so far barring the last hour and 97/8 part, Pakistan have looked stronger team.
 
First boundary after 4 overs, Sohail and Amir have given only 1 run in 4 overs prior to this.

164/1 Warner on 92

If Afridi can play for 20 years and never learn a damn thing and still be allowed to play, don't be shocked if Wahab ends up playing for another 4-5 years. Just unbelievable
 
Pakistan's first innings of the series has proved disastrous for them. They have looked really good since then,atleast with the bat.
 
Amir with his biomechanically perfect bowling action but impactless bowling.
 
Khawaja is such an impressive batsman. Which he would stayed in Pakistan.
 
Massive ton in context of this match and also newbie Aus batting line up.

He may end up being the captain.

PCB is totally finished . I cannot believe that Pakistan do not have better bowlers than these.

Trust me even Ashgar , the spinner would have been better here
 
Pakistan is probably only better than west indies and srilanka when it comes to fast bowling. Even lakmal got a 5fer against saffers.
 
Amir has been the best Pakistani bowler today , lots of edges. But he surely needs to put on muscles , he cant seem to bowl a heavy ball like starc.
 
People are too harsh on amir every now and then

He's bowling on a pitch that 3 ausis bowlers gone past over 100 including their spearhead
 
If Australia keep batting like this, Pakistan will be hoping for rain by the 5th day....
