Looks drier. Few balls have bounced awkwardlyThis pitch looks flatter than the first match.
No semblance of grass. It might turn on day 4.Looks drier. Few balls have bounced awkwardly

Pakistan will need atleast a 100 run lead. Even Par score would do. But if they concede a lead they will be in awkward situation like last matchIt's a disgrace of a pitch for test
Who cares. No wonder theirs no interest in test cricket.Pakistan will need atleast a 100 run lead. Even Par score would do. But if they concede a lead they will be in awkward situation like last match

Pitch is a joke. Boring cricket to be played until November
Now typical pakistani fans will use this innings to justify him as an IMPROVED BATSMENGood stuff from Shan. Playing at almost 90 strike rate. and completed his 50 on just 54 balls.
First 5 overs it was swinging, after that it has flattened out completelyI guess this another highway road track. No way Shan and Saim can score runs in a decent track.

Shows you the how bad abdullah shafiq is. he cant score runs even here.Should be dropped from Pakistan team indefinitely.I guess this another highway road track. No way Shan and Saim can score runs in a decent track.
The day I see a good batsmen in Shan is the day I die.To be fair to Shan, he had a great county season batting-wise:
13 inns
720 runs
60 avg
77.5 sr
2 100s
3 50s
He is such a cringe. I wish I could revoke his passport and he stayed in pakistanLol Athar Ali dreaming about winning in India
Both of these 2 goobers will fail overseas and collapse like a house of cards.Excellent batting after the debacle last game.
Saim's patience and judgement outside off stump been impressive.
Toss advantage denied to BD
Thats okay, first target is to atleast win in home conditions against top teams.Both of these 2 goobers will fail overseas and collapse like a house of cards.
Do you have a list of players who will not fail overseas?Both of these 2 goobers will fail overseas and collapse like a house of cards.
Not me, I don't associate with this team. I comment on them for fun lol.Thats okay, first target is to atleast win in home conditions against top teams.
Away win shouldn’t even be in the picture here. You just lost a test to Ban in home conditions.
The day I see a good batsmen in Shan is the day I die.
I'm sure in some twisted multiverse out their, theirs a reality where Shan masood is the greatest batsmen of all time. You and I do not live in that reality mate.
But he won you guys in toughest tour for pak in sri lanka which is spinners paradise so gotta respect him for that scored double hundred there which is a big thing.Abdullah Shafique was supposed to be the savior to our batting woes. He has been humbled by Bangladesh of all teams.
Depends on where it's being played.Do you have a list of players who will not fail overseas?
Brother, this guy cannot play anything below Waist high. Bangladesh are bowling rubbish to him on a pitch which is rubbish.He has an impressive FC and List-A record. But has never been able to perform in the international arena. I think the pressure gets to him & that he was not managed well earlier on in his career. Keep in mind, that a large chunk of his FC record has come from the UK.
At the age of 34 though, I would rather invest in the future. I want to see Muhammad Hurraira replace him and eventually be captain.
Saim Ayub has just started. T20 is a joke format and very different from tests. Really can't judge his ability to perform in tests based on t20Depends on where it's being played.
If it's Australia then we haven't had a single player who has functioned well over their besides Ijaz Ahmed.
If it's the rest of the world then fakhar can do wonders if he switches on that is.
I can see saud being good in Asian conditons like India, Sri lanka, Afghanistan and also English conditions. However no shot in hell in Australia and sa conditions he'll fail badly their.
Babar when he was in form did well overseas, Rizwan in test can manage overseas.
Bro the point isn't who can and who cannot. Pakistan use to be a fortress in UAE because all the players especially Younis Khan were spin magicians. Even our crap players like Ahmed shehzad use to struggle against pace, not spin.
Only Umar Akmal and sohaib maqsood.would struggle against spin which is probs why they couldn't make it to the test team.
Today it's the opposite. The so called king of Pakistan cannot play spin.
@Farabi Suggestion of turning Pakistan into a spin fortress by producing spinners and making spin tracks like those in the UAE is an idea I forward.
The irony is that The players we use to hate during the Misbah days and call them medicore would all wipe the floor with the current lot no question. I've seen the likes of Khalid Latif, Sohaib malik and Imran Farhat who people claimed were peak mediocrity which I agree with being miles superior to the Likes of Abdullah shafiq, shadab Khan, Saim Ayub etc
There you go Mehidy finds some turn to dismiss ShanLooks drier. Few balls have bounced awkwardly
T20 is not a joke format. It's a different format, one with its own set of rules.Saim Ayub has just started. T20 is a joke format and very different from tests. Really can't judge his ability to perform in tests based on t20
@Asad T I told you, Shan can't read spin.There you go Mehidy finds some turn to dismiss Shan
T20 is pure junk hope the new Indian chairman bins the format there’s a reason why botham holding Bedi despise this formatT20 is not a joke format. It's a different format, one with its own set of rules.
Just like being a goat test player(YK) does not translate into being a good odi or t20 player, the same goes vice versa for the likes of SKY and others.
Pakistan turned it into a joke format with joke openers and a non existent middle order.
Only Malik is the remaining active Pakistani cricketer that can read spin off the hand.@Asad T I told you, Shan can't read spin.
It's the best Shan can do.Such a basic shot to play and Shan misses it like it was unplayable.
Yes but Shan can't judge its line, length and has no backlift or backfoot strokes to begin withOnly Malik is the remaining active Pakistani cricketer that can read spin off the hand.
Everyone kept putting Babar at no 3 in their pakistan atg line up.Babar's struggle against inward seaming balls continue
Shafique looks like a sitting duck these days.Bangladesh is stupid, they should have bowled a few overs of spin as soon as Abdullah went out.
It doesn't matter if it's a fresh track or a new ball, Shan would have been out regardless lol.
Its just the new ball it seemed in.He played a stupid shot in 2nd innings last match otherwise there is NO ONE better in the country name me one. Look.at the shot Saim Just played nowShafique looks like a sitting duck these days.
Saim 110 deliveries and yet can't kick on and get a big score.Its just the new ball it seemed in.He played a stupid shot in 2nd innings last match otherwise there is NO ONE better in the country name me one. Look.at the shot Saim Just played now
Tomorrow's the last day anyway doesn't matter either way.Flat pitch. 2 quick wickets. What next? Collapse or recovery?
Well we are pretty awful to be honest. Pretty speechless as i can tell you we will not be able to get their batters out on this pitch they bat too deepFlat pitch. 2 quick wickets. What next? Collapse or recovery?
Yeah good call@Asad T I told you, Shan can't read spin.
He's a walking wicket outside Asia. Can't perform even in countySaud dropped absolute easy catch...shall we not have a go at Saud now in reality he should be gone no body dropa those catchea
If we drop catches like this, yes, we won't be able to get them all out.Well we are pretty awful to be honest. Pretty speechless as i can tell you we will not be able to get their batters out on this pitch they bat too deep
What happened now?Pakistan is such a joke
We'd be 4 wickets down on a phata if Saud's catch was taken.What happened now?
Babar looking solidWe'd be 4 wickets down on a phata if Saud's catch was taken.
This is unacceptable. Rana isn't even bowling anything spicy, he's just bowling fast and standard pace and our batsmen are reacting as if their 80 year olds.
And mehidy is being turned into murli by these clowns
