Australia vs Pakistan | 2nd Test | Adelaide | Nov 29 - Dec 3, 2019 | Day 2 | Match Thread

[Captain caveman]

For 25/6 or 134/1? Either one can happen depending on the timing of declaration - any factor else is immaterial here.

I was thinking more on the lines of 400 for 4

 

[Ahmed216]

What is bobby azam doing at forward short leg??

 

[Varun]

Double hundred coming up for Yasir Shah.

Australia can score 1000 here.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Azhar is the dumbest captain I have ever seen , if Yasir shah isn't working give the ball to iftikhar or even Asad shafiq. This is totally clueless captaincy.

 

[Mean&Green]

Why was yasir shah surprised by that six he should be thanking god he didn’t get smashed for 40 more had warner not cared about getting out cheaply

 

[jnaveen1980]

What is bobby azam doing at forward short leg??

I think they are giving him some rest.

 

[Aman]

Not going to lie, would love to see Warner smash Lara's record just to see the meltdown on here

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Warner is averaging 103.60 vs Pakistan now

 

[Aman]

Is Yasir the worst specialist spinner to tour Aus? (statistically).

Didn't he go for close to 200 last game too?

 

[chuck]

When, rather than if, Yasir reaches the milestone of 200 we should get Warner out before 300. And then Pakistan can say that we have a double centurian too.

 

[jnaveen1980]

This attack is so toothless that even Wade will fancy himself to get 400. It is a matter of concentration going forward.

 

[MMHS]

I was thinking more on the lines of 400 for 4

I don’t have that much strength in my InshaAllah - need every poster here to join me....

 

[Captain caveman]

those players have had many individual accomplishments without the assistance of their team. Heck, Warner has essentially won this Test alone with his triple.

Dont order you omelette before the eggs have been laid.

 

[Aman]

FTB

 

[lifecric7]

Not going to lie, would love to see Warner smash Lara's record just to see the meltdown on here

That would be fun... the best bowling team in the world should have some records to set

 

[Shafi]

Our team will go more down under Misbah and Waqar combo. Thank you Wasim Khan

 

[Captain caveman]

I don’t have that much strength in my InshaAllah - need every poster here to join me....

Lets do this

 

[JibranAnsari]

if Australia declares tonight , Pakistan will be all out for 50 odd.

 

[MMHS]

Azhar is the dumbest captain I have ever seen , if Yasir shah isn't working give the ball to iftikhar or even Asad shafiq. This is totally clueless captaincy.

He is continuing with a leggi going at 6+ against two rampant lefti at the Adelaide oval - that’s mind blowing.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Is Yasir the worst specialist spinner to tour Aus? (statistically).

Didn't he go for close to 200 last game too?

Not just statistically. it is almost like Kane williamson bowling 35 overs. His bowling level at this point is below club level with plenty of half trackers.

 

[Justcrazy]

Yasir 3 away from another 200

Dont order you omelette before the eggs have been laid.

The chickens giving eggs have been roasted in Aussie sun and are ready to be eaten by davey Warner

 

[Captain caveman]

I reckon all 3 results are still possible, what you think lads?

 

[Aman]

That would be fun... the best bowling team in the world should have some records to set

Nah, more so because of the disrespect for Warner than Pakistan's bowling attack.

 

[chuck]

When, rather than if, Yasir reaches the milestone of 200 we should get Warner out before 300. And then Pakistan can say that we have a double centurian too.

They took him off so close to milestone. Rather unfair, if you ask me.

 

[lifecric7]

It’s a perfect day in Melbourne today.. I have had few drinks and enjoying this in the backyard .....awesome Aussie summer

 

[Mesozoic]

Yasir taken off the attack.

 

[Captain caveman]

Chickens have only been a quarter roasted, not yet ready to eat, pak still have to bat, more importantly, rain is forcast.

 

[szundercover]

Not going to lie, would love to see Warner smash Lara's record just to see the meltdown on here

I won't mind it and especially mamoon won't too.

 

[dildilpak]

Think Australia would declare towards the end of this session

 

[JattMaula]

Is Yasir Shah nearing a double century? Can't believe it.

He is going to stranded in 190's if captain pain declares after Warner's triple.

 

[lifecric7]

What is the highest individual score against Pakistan in tests ??

 

[Captain caveman]

It’s a perfect day in Melbourne today.. I have had few drinks and enjoying this in the backyard .....awesome Aussie summer

I hope in rains in melbourne!

 

[lifecric7]

Chickens have only been a quarter roasted, not yet ready to eat, pak still have to bat, more importantly, rain is forcast.

But humiliation is complete.. such a tripe bowling attack

 

[JattMaula]

3x

 

[Captain caveman]

What is the highest individual score against Pakistan in tests ??

We will find out later today

 

[Justcrazy]

:300:

For Warner

Devastating innings...

 

[lifecric7]

Yes yes yes...well done...go for 400

 

[szundercover]

This is the fastest 300 scored by any player...

 

[jnaveen1980]

Warner 300 !!! Superlative effort. Superb running.

 

[Kaptan]

Warner triple hundred wow.
He should go for 400. Please score 400.

 

[Hyperion66]

Patiently waiting for Audit's double ton, so excited, this is GOAT level cluelessness from him.

 

[Captain caveman]

But humiliation is complete.. such a tripe bowling attack

We are bhaigherat, we dont believe in humiliation

 

[Stark]

Shane Warne quite disappointed with Yasir's performance in this game.

You think so?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Brother [MENTION=132916]Junaids[/MENTION] used to criticise Warner for his inability to last 200 balls in a test match. Done that twice in two innings now. Hope you rate him now brother.

 

[Pete Rose]

This is the fastest 300 scored by any player...

I think Sehwag scored on against South Africa that was a run a ball?

 

[Justcrazy]

37 fours by Warner but no sixes so far.

 

[shariqnoor]

Labuschagne didn't get his 250 but at least Warner got his 300. Predicted it last night only. Australia should allow him to bat. He can easily get 400 here.

 

[Thulsa]

Just need Yasir’s second double ton for this farce to be complete.

 

[lifecric7]

Candice Warner crying.. she was abused a lot..good for her

 

[ZaudStorm]

Warner will definitely target Lara's record here

 

[lifecric7]

I think Sehwag scored on against South Africa that was a run a ball?

Yup that is the fastest...under 300 balls I think.

 

[Captain caveman]

Christmas has come early for warner, we pakistanis have big hearts, always give nice presents to people.

 

[Pete Rose]

I really they need to drop Yasir after this test match, regardless of his exploits in the UAE. But since it’s Misbah and his entire brand is middle of the table cricket, no such thing will happen

 

[Relic]

Ducking hell.
This is what our bowling has come to.
Disappointing to see
I remember the outcry here when Joe root scored 254 but this is on a whole new level

 

[Justcrazy]

Wade scores a boundary

 

[jnaveen1980]

Yasir Shah to Warner 109 balls 104 runs.

 

[Kaptan]

This is the fastest 300 scored by any player...

One of Sehwag's triple came in 278 balls. So this is not the fastest. Maybe 3rd or 4th fastest.

 

[Pete Rose]

Australia will not declare when Pakistan want them to: it will be when they are further demoralized. Anyhoo the squad selection has been awful for this tour. There’s gonna be a lot of tension between the chief selector and the coach

 

[Captain caveman]

Mickey has dodged a bullet

 

[Captain caveman]

Mickey has dodged a bullet

No not in pakistan.
But not being in charge of this team anymore.

 

[jnaveen1980]

One of Sehwag's triple came in 278 balls. So this is not the fastest. Maybe 3rd or 4th fastest.

I think against Srilanka. Scored 284 runs in 2.5 sessions. vs Murali and Herath

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Australia will not declare when Pakistan want them to: it will be when they are further demoralized. Anyhoo the squad selection has been awful for this tour. There’s gonna be a lot of tension between the chief selector and the coach

I see what you did there

 

[Bilal Ahmad15]

Come on, I hope Tim Paine lets Warner beat Lara's 400. This is a one in a million chance to do it. Mathew Wade, at the other, can just take singles and rotate the strike to Warner, and he is good at that, and Warner should go T20 mode, especially since Iftikhar is currently bowling.

Are you saying misbah is a schizrophenic?

 

[Mainul]

Another double century on card for Yasir

 

[lifecric7]

David Warner was a snail against England and now a cobra against Pakistan

 

[jnaveen1980]

Abbas is getting annihilated here.

I hope warner gets out for 399

 

[lifecric7]

Trundlers in action getting slaughtered

 

[Shoaib88]

So Pakistans best spinner- Muhammad abbas, being taken apart now.

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Abbas getting creamed

 

[Justcrazy]

runs flowing here.

 

[jnaveen1980]

David Warner was a snail against England and now a cobra against Pakistan

It probably is not just the bowling quality. Also the chanting, sledging, come back. I think if he goes now he will have a slightly better series.

 

[chuck]

They have battered Pakistan into submission already. What's going on now is inhuman, they must declare. Have some mercy.

 

[lifecric7]

Charge on for 400

 

[Kaptan]

Getting a feeling that Warner will throw his wicket. Please no. Take your time and score 400.

 

[Thulsa]

Yasir Shah should be brought on now to stem the run flow...

 

[Abdullah719]

I hope warner gets out for 399

And... it's a no-ball.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Yasir Shah should be brought on now to stem the run flow...

Unless oxford has changed the meaning of "stem" that is not a great idea lol
