Australia v Pakistan | 3rd Test | Sydney | Jan 3-7, 2017 | Day 1

[MMHS]

who is just as bad and less fitter.

Ideally, they should have played Asghar. There is no point playing a pacers just for the sake of it.

 

[Abdul]

Haan bhai where are those that wanted this guy in the team?

[MENTION=138508]aloo paratha[/MENTION] nowhere to be seen. Pehla banda ayhi ae line vich.

 

[Junaids]

[MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION] there is almost total cloud cover.

If you pick three quicks and one spinner, this is when you need to be bowling.

First morning.

Grass not dead yet.

Cloud cover.

 

[Belawal2014]

Is it me or Imran Khan looks like Umar Gul?

No, not just you, his run-up also emulates that of Gul.

 

[Rayyman]

Let them we already lost the series. Who cares..

This is a series of moral victories.

 

[Sanzcool]

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan new ball bowling is probably lowest in the world.

 

[Sadevdesai]

May be I am too harsh, but with all the support Amir has had from the fans, players and the PCB, he has NOT lived up to justify any of it !!!! Hmmmmmm ...... !!!

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Wahab already into the attack.

First morning.

Grass not dead yet.

Cloud cover.

I'm sorry, but it's pretty clear and sunny, nothing like SEVEN FRIGGIN YEARS AGO. Let that sink in, 7 years..

 

[Rayyman]

[MENTION=138508]aloo paratha[/MENTION] nowhere to be seen. Pehla banda ayhi ae line vich.

Tbf he is in USA.

Meanwhile Imran Khan has been taken off.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

May be I am too harsh, but with all the support Amir has had from the fans, players and the PCB, he has NOT lived up to justify any of it !!!! Hmmmmmm ...... !!!

Amir's the least of our problems and I'm not even a big fan of his!

 

[world cup captain]

Wahab is gonna destroy the aussies today!

 

[Syed1]

I'm sorry, but it's pretty clear and sunny, nothing like SEVEN FRIGGIN YEARS AGO. Let that sink in, 7 years..

Whenever someone says let that sink it, this is what comes to my mind:

 

[Junaids]

I'm sorry, but it's pretty clear and sunny, nothing like SEVEN FRIGGIN YEARS AGO. Let that sink in, 7 years..

No, it's totally grey at the ground.

Grass not dead yet.

Cloud cover.

I am watching my first Test then, with cloud covering & solid dark shade of players from fade sun light, coming behind clouds.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Another by Warner!

 

[Bewal Express]

400 at max

If Warner stays in, Aus will score 500 in the day.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need more than one wicket here.

 

[Belawal2014]

Hate how amir shouts out "Catch!" and it's nowhere near the fielder, bhai kis ko _____ bana rahe ho?

 

[Bewal Express]

With Yasir at a low ebb and bowling pies, this has to be one of the poorest attacks we have ever put out.

 

[Belawal2014]

No, it's totally grey at the ground.View attachment 71841

Light seeping through those clouds and they look like passing clouds at best.

 

[wasimjunior]

Don't worry we have our own warner playing this game

 

[GullyCricketFlop]

who is just as bad and less fitter.

He's better than IK and he can bat!

 

[Rayyman]

No, it's totally grey at the ground.View attachment 71841

Those aren't rain clouds.

 

[Junaids]

As I have written for months, Amir - like Trent Boult - is too short for Aussie red ball conditions.

There is no safe length for him to bowl economically.

 

[Justcrazy]

Yasir would be attacked here again . Tough for him.

 

[Abdul]

Don't worry we have our own warner playing this game

Yeah, the one who'll nick in first two overs.

 

[Asim2Good]

100for Warner before Lunch is coming up guys

 

[fast1975]

Who's bright Idea was it to drop Sohail.

and what did he bring to board as a bowler? nothing. zero. no swing, no seam, no pace

i mean we want to blame misbah but man look at our team. look at our options.

pathetic rahat leaves and sohail comes and he is even more pathetic....now sohail leaves and imran comes and he is even more pathetic

what can poor misbah does? our bowling simply sucks

 

[Belawal2014]

Have your fun Davey, wait till Sharjeel comes out..

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Australia batting at better than a run a ball.55 off 9 overs

 

[Belawal2014]

Amir bowling filth, pitch it up please.

 

[Rayyman]

Hate how amir shouts out "Catch!" and it's nowhere near the fielder, bhai kis ko _____ bana rahe ho?

Rizwan bhai would've caught that.

 

[in_cutter]

Records will be smashed today

 

[Junaids]

Light seeping through those clouds and they look like passing clouds at best.

My daughter has gone to the shops because it's too cloudy for the beach.

 

[Syed1]

Thank you kaptaan

 

[Justcrazy]

55 in 8 overs

 

[Hamza_]

We need serious dose of Jazba Junoon

 

[Sadevdesai]

Warner .... century before Lunch ????

 

[Belawal2014]

Thank you kaptaan

If Misbah wasn't sure about retirement after MCG, you bet he will be after this phainty.

 

[Zeshan547]

Usman khuwaja think, "don't think i am get the chance to bat today, and can't join this runs charity"

 

[itsme]

Don't worry we have our own warner playing this game

And our own hazlewood

 

[GullyCricketFlop]

Maiden by Wahab.

 

[Belawal2014]

Wabby bhai wasting the new ball by bowling wide. Oh well, at least it contains the runs.

 

[Justcrazy]

Warner looking good for another hundred.

 

[itsme]

All those guys are carbon copies of Sohail Khan and Imran Khan.

Asif is much better

 

[Belawal2014]

Vicky Bhai, we've Aamer Yamin and Ammad Butt who are not even starting for their domestic sides, how do you expect them to be groomed...

 

[MMHS]

It's clear that one has to get Warner out - he'll keep striking as long as he is in the middle. A tough proposition for Captain like Misbah - Virat, Mac or Smith probably would have tried different tactics - put 4 slips, 2 gullies & keep covers open - then ask bowlers to pitch up without giving width, may be 50 would have come faster, but not without a chance in early overs. Stable moods operandi won't work against these batsmen - Sehwag also troubled Inzi's team most & so did Sanga & recently Ross, players that take chances & play their shots, and never bogs down against negative field or bowling.

I just wonder, what he is going to do against Azhar in ODI?

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Aray Yasir abhi se aagaya!

 

[Syed1]

If Misbah wasn't sure about retirement after MCG, you bet he will be after this phainty.

Inzi the revolutionary is also equally to blame, selecting the exact same loser team from the NZ series. I mean come on you had one job Inzi.

And then Mickey Arthur riding on Waqar's work and drawing a series in England other than that PATHETIC to say the least. There was a reason why he was fired from his previous jobs.


Inzi-Mickey-Misbah, the trio responsible for our present state.

 

[Belawal2014]

Guys, just imagine the thrashing in ODIs..

 

[Belawal2014]

Azhar Ali ne toh apne haath upar kar lene hai.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Oi why on earth do we have pink hats?!

 

[GullyCricketFlop]

Guys, just imagine the thrashing in ODIs..

An almighty phainty awaits us.

 

[Zeshan547]

Keep that leg stump rubbish on.

 

[Rayyman]

Maiden by Wahab.

Bowling to Renshaw.

 

[Belawal2014]

Oi why on earth do we have pink hats?!

Pink test for McGrath foundation for Breast Cancer awareness.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Well bowled by Yasir.

 

[HussainRx8]

Can't see Pak bowling out Aus on this pitch.

 

[Asim2Good]

Yasir bowling on leg stump line once again

 

[MMHS]

What is happening? I wonder if Arthur has any say or may be has taken this for granted until Misbah is gone.

 

[Syed1]

Time to bump the rain dance thread..

 

[Rayyman]

Guys, just imagine the thrashing in ODIs..

and beg to differ.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Pink test for McGrath foundation for Breast Cancer awareness.

Oh ok

 

[itsme]

140kph and carrying at keeper's feets

 

[Belawal2014]

Another cosmetic surgery after this test awaits, some chopping and changing of positions in the PCB and the awaam will be happy.

 

[Zeshan547]

Don't know which is worse, pak bowling or waqar's commentry, "pak need to bring that run rate under 3" yeah possible if we had wasim and waqar at their prime, even then it would have been an achievement.

 

[Snow]

Renshaw is so boring to watch, he is leaving everything on a flat pitch.

 

[in_cutter]

Yasir bowling on leg stump line once again

From cricinfo: Leg-side fields at MCG was 'my mistake', says Yasir Shah

 

[Rayyman]

What is happening? I wonder if Arthur has any say or may be has taken this for granted until Misbah is gone.

Would rather lose 2-1 than 3-0.

 

[Syed1]

Renshaw is so boring to watch, he is leaving everything on a flat pitch.

He is a God-send for our no-hopers, gives us a little respite from Warner

 

[ExplicitAI]

We are getting smacked up

 

[Belawal2014]

and beg to differ.

Yeah, Malik's dab to 3rd man and Maddy's darter's are gonna be a handful for the Aussies.

 

[Asim2Good]

From cricinfo: Leg-side fields at MCG was 'my mistake', says Yasir Shah

i read that, he bowled onto pads in his first over.

 

[Justcrazy]

Fifty for Warner.

 

[MMHS]

Would rather lose 2-1 than 3-0.

anyone would take that - what's the point?

 

[Syed1]

Yeah, Malik's dab to 3rd man and Maddy's darter's are gonna be a handful for the Aussies.

Come on yaar.. aek Maddy tou international ODI level player hai humaray pass.

 

[GullyCricketFlop]

Fifty for Warner.

No,it isn't(yet).

 

[itsme]

Misbah using ik in short burst so far
