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

Mushtaq had 10 I believe and Intekhab 2, Wasim Raja 4(?). Probably L Brand one as well in 1900s.

Shiva used to bowl leggi and SRT has about 100 International wickets with leg spin .....

He is talking about proper leg spinners not part timers.
 
Does Adil Rashid have a test hundred? Probably the best with the bat among current leg spinners. Although he’s obviously retired from the longer format and hadn’t played that many before he did
 
What a solid defence by Abbas..if the top order has resisted at least a draw was possible... Pakistan is so mercurial

Nervous nineties has left Yasir so discombobulated he forgot how to drink :yasir
 
PAK top order should put their bat perpendicular .... and then seat on the handle, right middle of their bottom. Feeling sorry for PAK bowlers actually - didn't get the chance to bowl at their own batsmen.
 
If Yasir is nearing his century imagine how flat this pitch is.
Shame on our batsmen.

batting is 70 percent in your head. If our batsmen were mentally strong don't think this was that pitch to collapse like thay
 
Australia always rolls out pitches like this and try to outbat the opposition. Every tom dick and harry pile up runs.
 
He is talking about proper leg spinners not part timers.

First 3 were proper leggi - played in wrong era. Mushtaq could have taken 4 wickets/Test against modern spin play; other two were better spinners.
 
Babar and yasir could easily have played out the entire day like dravid and laxman.
But milestone got to babers head
 
[MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION] that comment was under the belt, but these jokers who are pretending as batsman deserve everything what comes there way, bunch of shameless cowards.
 
Getting to the point where a few more runs and I'm dreaming of making 450 following on and we give them 160 in 40 to chase last session under the lights!!
 
[MENTION=132916]Junaids[/MENTION] you were screaming for all-rounders in shadab and faheem. Well , it looks like there are two better in Abbas and Yasir. :)

It's the function of comfort zone - Azhar, Asad, Shan, Imam, Haris knows that their spot in squad is guaranteed.
 
Yes! Take a bow!

100 for Yasir Shah in Australia against best Australian attack
 
What a performance by Yasir!!!!!
He should bat ahead of hacks like Shafiq and Iftikhar
 
Well played Yasir - it's always enjoyable when a dropped batsman makes the bowling side pay..... and this guy was a proper tail-ender!!!
 
Well done messi. Have to appreciate the troll value of babar missing out and yasir getting there the way he did and surviving 3.times. :))
 
We're probably gonna get bowled out in like 1-2 overs now.. oh well :salute
 
This man's a demon :yasir scoring hundreds and double hundreds left, right and center.
 
This what I was talking about babar missed out on a double ton I said imagine if babar gets a double ton and yasir a 100 but babar is just babar what a terrible way to get out in the end both times he was the one to get out in the partnership
 
It's our Asian weakness - we are too polite and cordial, treat guests as Gods. Next time these Aussies come to Asia, they should be treated equally .....

Almost 14 years back, we played a Test at Fatullah, against a truly ATG team ..... and somehow Shahriar Nafees scored a brilliant, brilliant 138 at 75 SR. This guy is son of an Army officer, taught in English medium, so he understands English.

Later, he once said that by Tea, he felt like throwing wicket and get back to dressing room - such was the filth of dirty Aussie mouth. Players in their mid/late 30s with 20 years career were throwing random filth to a 20 years old kid, playing 3rd Test for a minnow and his only fault was, he was spanking the likes of Warne, Gillespe, McGill, Lee .... started with his batting technique .... gradually went to his bad breath, his girl friend, ..... up to his mom & sister watching from stands.

At least for once I liked Shastri when he really rubbed sand papers on filthy Aussie mouth.......

Never had the privilege to watch them but how did Imran, Wasim, Miandad, Shoaib responded to Aussie sledging ?
 
First 3 were proper leggi - played in wrong era. Mushtaq could have taken 4 wickets/Test against modern spin play; other two were better spinners.

Mushtaq didn't even scored a hundred in first class cricket,Wasim looked like an all rounder.
 
Yasir's 100 tell us how badly Pakistan's top order (ex Babar) has batted on this flat patta.
 
Wow. Great spirit by Yasir Shah. Anybody talking about dropping him should get a smack.
 
It cannot be a coincidence both Abbas and Yasir have all the time in the world to bat on this pitch. It is super flat. Nothing is happening.
 
If these two stretch it out for next 2-3 hours and it rains draw is possible. That would be an achievement
 
How good Abbas has been. Not a single time has he looked that he will get out. So solid on the crease! Its so shameful to see how flat this pitch is and how bad our top order played. Just if they had stayed a bit longer batting would have become easier as we are seeing now. Nothing in the pitch. Must sack asad and azhar. Asad shafiq only plays one good innings.
 
Flat pitch or not, Pak should've been bowled out ages ago especially with this Aussie attack.
 
Babar needs to focus more when he gets to his hundred. He loses it when he is near or just over the hundred mark.

In Brisbane too, both him and Rizwan were batting wonderfully before he got out to Lyon.
