Australia vs Pakistan | 2nd Test | Adelaide | Nov 29 - Dec 3, 2019 | Day 4 | Match Thread

[Relic]

Hope these 2 can give us a lead of 200 odd we may have a chance pitch is supporting spin never know what can happen lol

Lol.
A typical pakistani.
Hoping for somethingt from nothing

 

[emranabbas]

Wow!
Something is wrong here, either yasir's found his inner bradman or our batsman need to retire from cricket and do something else with the exception of babar and shafiq.

Yasir has been working on his batting but he really won't mold into a all rounder or a batsmen we need

Yasir will be Yasir only decent in UAE

 

[emranabbas]

Lol.

I think you need to get out a little bit more

 

[ARK Rafay]

Plumb

 

[Big Mac]

nooooooooooooooo

 

[Big Mac]

Plumb

Looks plumb but he's the best batsman so got to review it

 

[andy0204]

What?

 

[Boi]

Fs given 4 wickets to Lyon that’s definitely improved his dire bowling average against us.

 

[emranabbas]

Yasir Bradman gone

 

[andy0204]

Fs given 4 wickets to Lyon that’s definitely improved his dire bowling average against us.

Lyon has a good record in Adelaide.
He has taken 2 5-fers against India in this ground.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Current situation of the team is so bad that even a late fight back can't even save this team from an innings defeat.

They'll be all out before the new ball

 

[Savak]

Pakistan had zero answers to Nathan Lyons around the wicket tactics and Tim paines field placings on the leg and off side. Lyon definitely learnt this from watching Muttiah Murlitharan

 

[letme alone]

somebody say to Australian:"humi dinner to kernay do. out pay out kayay ja rahay ho"

 

[jnaveen1980]

Fs given 4 wickets to Lyon that’s definitely improved his dire bowling average against us.

Should have claimed a bit more in the first innings. Many catches dropped. But this is an uber flat deck where ball hardly turns. First time in this series he is getting some purchase.

 

[Captain caveman]

Azhar, imam and ifti are the reasons why we will not get a lead of 200, these guys have failed in both innings!
Someone needs to explain why these guys were included in this test , as well as musa's inclusion - misbah?
I am not saying we could have won this test, but it would have been more competitive and who knows?
Now its just another embarrassing aussie test defeat for us.

 

[Captain caveman]

We still haven't managed to score more as a team than david warner!

You have when you consider both innings together

 

[Captain caveman]

Yasir kept babar's izzat

 

[Captain caveman]

You have when you consider both innings together

Thanks for kicking me in the head when i was crawling in misery on the floor.
If the opportunity arises, i will reciprocate your good intentions!

 

[Shazzam]

We should be stripped off our Test status after this is over

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Not kicking you in the head, brother. You need to look at the positives. It's a blessing that Pakistan managed to score this much!

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Innings defeat coming up. Chalo ji concentrate on home series vs SL.

 

[Shazzam]

Not kicking you in the head, brother. You need to look at the positives. It's a blessing that Pakistan managed to score this much!

Agreed we are a 90 all out team on regular bases.

 

[Captain caveman]

Not kicking you in the head, brother. You need to look at the positives. It's a blessing that Pakistan managed to score this much!

And there you go again with another kick to my skull!

 

[Big Mac]

Not kicking you in the head, brother. You need to look at the positives. It's a blessing that Pakistan managed to score this much!

We've scored enough runs to be competitive in this series but our bowling is the reason we've been beaten so convincingly.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Innings defeat coming up. Chalo ji concentrate on home series vs SL.

Nothing matters until Misbah is gone.

 

[Professor]

Isn’t it tiring to write out all these patronizing post?

 

[Big Mac]

*** was that Shaheen

 

[Captain caveman]

Nothing matters until Misbah is gone.

I second that motion.
Down with misbah!

 

[lifecric7]

Ha ha ha ... Afridi living up to his surnames namesake... brainless

 

[Captain caveman]

Is the whole tribe the same?

 

[Cricket World]

Why SSA coming ahead of Abbas. Brainless management

 

[andy0204]

I second that motion.
Down with misbah!

Misbah is actually good in Asian conditions, atleast your home record in tests will be good under him.

 

[lifecric7]

Is the whole tribe the same?

They are aggressive and talented.. Shaheen can bat decently saw few good strokes from him in his u19 days..someone needs to coach him applying himself

 

[Nikhil_cric]

We've scored enough runs to be competitive in this series but our bowling is the reason we've been beaten so convincingly.

Azhar, Asad , Ifthikar all need to be replaced. Both bowling and batting gave been equally culpable.

 

[lifecric7]

Naw our Babar will break all our batting records.

Tbh I agree but it’s not a new tactic..can’t believe Pakistan did not try this against Warner in first test

 

[Kaizoku]

Well Saffers and Pakistan are in a transition phase. They will bounce back stronger.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Rizwan should have batted above Iftikhar for the whole series but certainly in this test.

 

[Kaizoku]

I feel Shaheen is a better prospect than Naseem. He will be the numero uno in the upcoming years. This guy literally leading a pace attack of a nation and he is just 19. He will get stronger and add a few yards of pace. Got a great height and can move the ball both ways.

 

[Shazzam]

Tbh I agree but it’s not a new tactic..can’t believe Pakistan did not try this against Warner in first test

This only happen cause Australia is playing at home. In any other place we would defeat them.

 

[Captain caveman]

Rizwan should have batted above Iftikhar for the whole series but certainly in this test.

Rizwan and yasir can hold their heads high in terms of batting(though yasir has been incredibly poor as a bowler).
Babar and shafiq have done ok .
Shaan, i know alot of people hate on him but i think hes done ok too.
The rest of the top 6 should be ashamed and fired - yes i am talking to you azhar, imam, ifti and haris.
These guys need to be dumped asap!
Haris can play odis, and ifti can play t20s but thats it.
No format for azhar or imam, both must be chucked out!

 

[Savak]

Can't blame the batting to be honest. If you bowl poorly and let the opposition score big, scoreboard pressure will get you

 

[Shazzam]

Gonna blame the batting for not being able to save this Test.

 

[Captain caveman]

Can't blame the batting to be honest. If you bowl poorly and let the opposition score big, scoreboard pressure will get you

True but theres no excuse for getting out in single figures. At least score 30s/40s.

 

[Captain caveman]

Shaheen is decent but not too bright.
Naseem is the best prospect since a 19 year old amir.

 

[Captain caveman]

Sad that not only can we not play bounce, but we can't play spin.
Lyon exposes yasirs pathetic bowling.
I get a sinking feeling about next weeks SL series.

 

[Indiafan]

This only happen cause Australia is playing at home. In any other place we would defeat them.

I doubt that. Only yasir is the bowler you have, the rest are all rookies. Pakistan's bowling attack is very weak currently

 

[Big Mac]

True but theres no excuse for getting out in single figures. At least score 30s/40s.

Getting out in single figures is more understandable because you get out before you're comfortable. Getting to 30/40 and then being dismissed is worse because you're set after doing the hard work.

 

[Shazzam]

I doubt that. Only yasir is the bowler you have, the rest are all rookies. Pakistan's bowling attack is very weak currently

The batting is bad too. We need someone who can support Babar.

 

[Big Mac]

Time for Musa and Abbas to get their maiden test fifties

 

[Belawal2014]

Missed a straight one.

 

[Belawal2014]

In hindsight, should've let Warner get his 400.

 

[Belawal2014]

When are India touring Australia?

 

[Big Mac]

Abbas gonna get that average into double figures

 

[Big Mac]

When are India touring Australia?

Have to ask Kohli

 

[angrypathan]

Great effort to get back there by Abbas
