Australia v Pakistan | 3rd Test | Sydney | Jan 3-7, 2017 | Day 4

[marlonbrowndo]

Decent line to Warner. Perhaps a bit too straight

 

[Justcrazy]

9 for no loss

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

6

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Yeah wth is with this pitched outside rule?

Man please

 

[qaiser]

Imo if it's hitting the wicket it should be out.

I agree
This rule never made sense to me but all cricket rules are are batsmen friendly as ICC feel so

 

[Syed1]

Himmat hai ap log ki keh you are actually watching this match/team.. mein tou apke comments parh ke judge kar raha hoon match mein kya horaha hoga

 

[Justcrazy]

Yasir greeted with a six

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Himmat hai ap log ki keh you are actually watching this match/team.. mein tou apke comments parh ke judge kar raha hoon match mein kya horaha hoga

Why you lyin

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Looks like yasir dnt have a brain

 

[marlonbrowndo]

I agree
This rule never made sense to me but all cricket rules are are batsmen friendly as ICC feel so

listen to these guys. Is this thrashing affecting your thinking capabilities?

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Yasir is a joke and misbah is an even bigger joke. Suicidal givin Yasir the bowl to open.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Six six four four-Yasir getting murdered here

 

[Rayyman]

by Warner

 

[Junaids]

To be fair to Misbah, he has won the crown from Mohammad Yousuf for Worst Captain Ever To Visit Australia.

When Yasir Shah has a series average of over 70 but opens the bowling with Imran Khan, you know that:

1. The squad didn't have enough fast bowlers (5).

2. The fast bowlers have been bowled into the ground due to the failure to take an all-rounder who can bowl seam - even Aamer Yamin or Hammad Azam.

3. The skipper hasn't understood any of the events in these three matches.

But Misbah has always been an appalling bowling captain. He bowls his quicks and spinners alike for excessively long spells.

 

[qaiser]

listen to these guys. Is this thrashing affecting your thinking capabilities?

Can you kindly give reason for this rule rather than criticism.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Would rather have Azhar bowl lol

 

[Belawal2014]

Phaintaaaaaaaaa!

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Saeed ajmal wud be better

 

[marlonbrowndo]

See you guys during the first ODI. I'm out

 

[Justcrazy]

Yasir getting again

1) and 2) aren't Misbah's fault.

 

[Justcrazy]

Saeed ajmal wud be better

Yes , off spinner would have been more effective

 

[Junaids]

I wonder why Misbah didn't open the bowling with Sarfraz at one end and himself at the other? He might as well have.

 

[qaiser]

See you guys during the first ODI. I'm out

Why do you think pitching outside leg should be not out even if its hitting good part of stumps?

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Another hundred in a session coming up.

 

[Junaids]

1) and 2) aren't Misbah's fault.

Don't kid yourself. This was the squad Misbah demanded.

And it is Misbah who has used Amir and Wahab in excessively long spells and worn them out.

 

[Abdul]

I wonder why Misbah didn't open the bowling with Sarfraz at one end and himself at the other? He might as well have.

Because Mohammad Amir is off the field and has gone for a scan, you genius.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Yasir is the last person you want to bowl when the other team are attacking. Mental midget

 

[Rayyman]

Azhar is the 4th bowler.

 

[Junaids]

Because Mohammad Amir is off the field and has gone for a scan, you genius.

Aussie pitches are hard. After all these excessively long spells for a month he may well have stress fractures.

You can't play Tests in Australia without enough pace bowling. That's why Mitch Marsh and Hilton Cartwright and Moises Henriques get tried at Number 6.

 

[MMHS]

What I feel is that there had been some real tug of war between Arthur/Rixon vs PAK part of the management regarding the fitness level of the team & Arthur has gone to the bent finger way - he is hell bent to expose the CS who was comfortably the worst example for a pro sportsman. So far 3 bowlers down in space of 2.5 test, that's after losing the premier fast bowler in the middle of an ODI.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Man I hate listening to Warne commentate. Someone shut this goof up.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Warner's bat should be a melee weapon in the next Fallout game

 

[qaiser]

All Pakistan team need is an honest, sincere, smart, hard working chief selector with no influence on his decisions from outside sources.
It will not make them number one but much better than this joke of a team.

 

[Rayyman]

It's fun seeing Wahab try to swing the ball.

 

[Abdul]

Are you able to name a person for that role?

[Rayyman]

Give it up bro. They won't change the rule.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

I don't want to explain something so basic and obvious

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan leaking runs here

 

[qaiser]

Are you able to name a person for that role?

Abdul Qadir, Mohsin Khan, Salahuddin have done a decent job in their time.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

3 consecutive fours

 

[Belawal2014]

Phaintaaaaaaaaaa.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Abdul Qadir, Mohsin Khan, Salahuddin have done a decent job in their time.

Abdul Qadir )

 

[sarthak]

The way they are going, they could set them a little under 400 with 30 mins to bat today

 

[qaiser]

I don't want to explain something so basic and obvious

LOL
Then stop criticizing if you cant explain such an obvious and basic stuff.

 

[Rayyman]

Imran Khan: Heart of a pacer. Pace of a spinner.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Another

 

[jog_1]

Imran Khan, please announce your retirement after that over.

 

[qaiser]

Abdul Qadir )

Who was the selector when we won t 20 world cup.

 

[Syed1]

Imran Khan: Heart of a pacer. Pace of a spinner.

Skill of a jamadar

 

[marlonbrowndo]

LOL
Then stop criticizing if you cant explain such an obvious and basic stuff.

No I'll still criticize

 

[Rayyman]

Wth is Misbah doing?!?

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Skill of a jamadar

A jamadar is still adept at his primary job

 

[marlonbrowndo]

What a shot! Looks like warner has really upgraded his melee weapon

 

[Syed1]

A jamadar is still adept at his primary job

No I meant if a jamadar took up bowling for the first time, he would bowl like IK

 

[jog_1]

Warner is playing T20 cricket in a white uniform.

 

[sarthak]

Baffling from Misbah. You know that Warner is trying to hit out. Why such an attacking field for Imran? At least delay the declaration man.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Who was the selector when we won t 20 world cup.

So just because we won the T20 world cup in his tenure that makes him a great selector?

 

[Rayyman]

What a shot! Looks like warner has really upgraded his melee weapon

Edged through point for four. Lol.
And now:

 

[Belawal2014]

Try this in India, Davey.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

50 for Warner in just 23 balls!

 

[qaiser]

Give it up bro. They won't change the rule.

I know they wont
Because it will effect performance of the teams that rely so heavily on their batsmen.

 

[Jabo]

Lol

Warner going all out

Poor Shah

 

[marlonbrowndo]

I know they wont
Because it will effect performance of the teams that rely so heavily on their batsmen.

Yes it's a 150 year old conspiracy to hurt Pakistan cricket

 

[street cricketer]

Yeah wth is with this pitched outside rule?

There is a reason cricket is called "the gentleman's game" and spirit of the game is held in high esteem. It is also a game of aesthetics. These are the things that separate cricket from a pure brawny sport like baseball. Till mid 1930s, the only major line that was bowled by a bowler was outside off stump. Bowling on the legs was severely frowned upon as ugly. Making a batsman nick behind was actually seen as the "right" way of getting him out. Was the same case with batting when playing with the bat away from the body or being severely out of shape when playing the shot. There is a reason playing leg side hoicks is called "hacking" while hitting a cover drive is seen as a "magisterial shot". Only after the bodyline series, the short ball came into more widespread use with a leg side field theory and even though the legside field got outlawed, bowling at the body with a short ball became an option for the bowler.

Anyway, if you keep such an lbw rule, everyone will start bowling at the legs with a negative line trying to get an lbw, denigrating the sport and its aesthetics as we know. A batsman can still be adjudged out when pitched legside if he's offering no shot and just padding away, which was an earlier tactic used by batsmen before the new rule change forced them to play at them. But if he has played a shot but missed it, he can't be given out.

 

[coy0607]

Misbah is going to go out on the absolute worst now- just dragged and beaten badly
He's getting an epic phanti here

 

[Moh@n]

Why do you think pitching outside leg should be not out even if its hitting good part of stumps?

Why do we need stumps in cricket? Why can't we live with only "caught" dismissals?

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Another Faster Hundred ka scene on!

 

[Abdul]

Try this in India, Davey.

Will fall to Ashwin in the first two overs.

 

[Yaasir]

Never seen such a pathetic bowler like Yasir Shah. Has absolutely no control over his length.

 

[MMHS]

Can Warner return the compliment Misbah gave to his bowlers in UAE? He is actually ahead of the rate.

 

[Belawal2014]

I acutally think Davey will do pretty well in India as well. Giving us a phainty here so I'm a bit salty..

 

[Belawal2014]

Oh no! Om Puri has passed away.

 

[qaiser]

Yes it's a 150 year old conspiracy to hurt Pakistan cricket

I guess you dont have a reason to support your thought so you just keep doing useless criticizing.

 

[MMHS]

Never seen such a pathetic bowler like Yasir Shah. Has absolutely no control over his length.

Unique as well - never seen a Leggi taking 2nd over in a Test in AUS with Kookaburra.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Sit down son.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Misbah isn't thinking clearly

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Can Warner return the compliment Misbah gave to his bowlers in UAE? He is actually ahead of the rate.

Maybe.

And just as I type that he's gone.

 

[Syed1]

Oh no! Om Puri has passed away.

Noooooooooo


Noooooooooo


Are you serious?
