Bangladesh vs Pakistan | 1st Test | Khulna |Day 3

[uberkoen]

LOL yeah because we are not good at it.

Yes. I will only start appreciating ODI cricket again once we go back to being good at it. Until then it's useless

 

[SL_Fan]

Hafeez has turned this game on it's head. Top knock. The lead should be somewhere around the 200 mark at the end of today's play so plenty of time left for a result.

 

[saeedhk]

Need to show intent.

 

[JibranAnsari]

I like both forms of cricket and to a lesser extent t20s. I think ODIs poses a different challenge to both batsmen and bowlers and in this batsmen friendly era of ODI cricket our batsmen are not upto the challenge.

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Can shakub make double ton going at good rate

 

[Bullet Drive]

Asad Shafiq in full flow is one of the best sights in Pakistan cricket.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Need to show intent.

whats the rush bro ? 29 overs remaining today and we can go on and bat for another 30 tomorrow. No need to be impatient.

 

[TheNightWatchman]

Should bat much faster than this

 

[uberkoen]

Need to show intent.

Scoring 400 odd runs isn't showing intent?

 

[JibranAnsari]

Asad Shafiq in full flow is one of the best sights in Pakistan cricket.

OMG why not in world cricket?

 

[JibranAnsari]

Should bat much faster than this

Yah , afridi should be the next man in.

 

[gani999]

Pakistan should try to get a lead of 350 or so runs by tea tomorrow, and get the Banglas innings defeated on the fifth day.

 

[uberkoen]

OMG why not in world cricket?

He will need to score at least 20 runs to be considered a best sight in world cricket whereas, 6 runs from 20 odd balls is good enough for Pakistan

 

[TheNightWatchman]

The runrate fell from 3.8 to 2.8 in last 5 overs. They want to have enough time to bowl Bangladesh out. the pitch is still flat and may not deteriorate later

That's why we have Yasir in the team.

Relax bro.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Asad with a lovely cut. Great!

 

[JibranAnsari]

If we can't get bangladesh out in 150 overs then we should bat the next two days also.

 

[Random Aussie]

Should bat much faster than this

 

[uberkoen]

T-20 generation.

 

[JibranAnsari]

We are often batting at 2.5 -2.7 and now we are batting at 3.5 for a change , be happy yaar.

 

[Bilal7]

Six incoming from Misbah's bat. Mark my words.

 

[uberkoen]

Six incoming from Misbah's bat. Mark my words.

Right.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Need to be looking to score at 4 an over in this final session, its not that difficult a task we just need to be more positive with the bat

 

[Amjid Javed]

Six incoming from Misbah's bat. Mark my words.

Am sure once ball is thrown up by one of spinners misbah will launch a big shot.

 

[Bilal7]

Its coming. I feel it in the air.

 

[TheNightWatchman]

Lead by 100.Time to go for it

 

[The_KING]

 

[TheNightWatchman]

Apparently Mohammad Shahid is 26 years old. His hairline suggests he is 36

 

[mussu-100]

Its coming. I feel it in the air.

If a new spinner is introduced, he surely will.

 

[JibranAnsari]

43 years old , still fit and scoring.

 

[The_KING]

43 years old , still fit and scoring.

40 mate

 

[Adeel Naseem]

43 years old , still fit and scoring.

Who

 

[JibranAnsari]

40 mate

No he admitted in one of the interviews that he is two years older than his official age. He is almost 41 now.

 

[TheNightWatchman]

Oh no athar is here to bleed ears

 

[The_KING]

No he admitted in one of the interviews that he is two years older than his official age. He is almost 41 now.

Lol ok. I swear every Pakistani cricketer is two years older than their official age. I don't believe that.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Finally some runs, shafiq picking scoring rate up.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Lol ok. I swear every Pakistani cricketer is two years older than their official age. I don't believe that.

Some are more. Yousuf I bet was 3 years older than his official age and so was waqar younis.

 

[TheNightWatchman]

Some are more. Yousuf I bet was 3 years older than his official age and so was waqar younis.

Does this apply to EVERY Pakistan player??

 

[Adeel Naseem]

No he admitted in one of the interviews that he is two years older than his official age. He is almost 41 now.

But phsically he is in 30 t

 

[JibranAnsari]

Does this apply to EVERY Pakistan player??

Mos but I am not assuming that Misbah is 2 years older , I heard it from him in an interview some 2 years ago.

 

[Anchorman]

You can bet Hasina Wajid won't be coming to watch this match.

 

[The_KING]

for Misbah. Make a

 

[TheNightWatchman]

At this rate Misbah's age will catch up to his average

 

[Adeel Naseem]

50 by dada jee of sami aslam

 

[Shafi]

missed out a hundred!!!

 

[Amjid Javed]

50 for Misbah now time to get a move on here....

 

[Anchorman]

Man, I missed Misbah.

 

[Boxer]

Pak need to take a big lead here and send the host on leather hunt.

 

[Boxer]

best alrounder in the world not picking up a lot of wickets.

 

[The_KING]

Shakib doesn't look as impressive as he did in the limited over series.

 

[Boxer]

laying the platform for Sarfraz Ahmed to go bersek.

 

[Boxer]

hope uncle completes 4000 runs this series.

 

[Laal]

Athar Ali Khan complimenting the economy rates of BD bowlers in a Test match . His commentary is so hard on the ears.

 

[Hawkeye]

Is KING the only batsman in cricket's history to be THAT good at this age?

 

[gazza619]

I know Asad Shafiq has failed in ODI's in the past but should we try him at no 6 in ODI's. Can that work? He is a solid batsman who has all shots in the book. Imagine him coming at the 30th over with the second power play round in the corner. I reckon he can do better than the overrated Umar akmal and Sohaib Maqsood.

good batting

 

[TheNightWatchman]

Post war...I think so yes

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Imran khan was but he retaired

 

[The_KING]

If Misbah came in the team much earlier than he did, he could have been Pakistan's highest run scorer in every format given his consistency.

 

[The_KING]

Misbah out

 

[pakistani pride]

Some old school bangla phainta going on.

 

[Shafi]

our players keep throwing their wickets

 

[TheNightWatchman]

Another batsman goes with a start

 

[TheNightWatchman]

Shafiq needs to build with Sarfi

 

[Hawkeye]

Man.

Bohot tareef krdi maine Misbah ki!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Misbah has a habit of playing awful shots are critical times

 

[Shafi]

If Misbah came in the team much earlier than he did, he could have been Pakistan's highest run scorer in every format given his consistency.

Exactly!! Sad he always have to play under pressure

 

[TheNightWatchman]

Sarfi should go for it. Lead is 150. Even if worst case scenario he gets out early. They have Riaz and Yasir who can bat

 

[Yatoo]

W C Grace

 

[aukhan]

Shafiq has a ton in his last Test innings against NZ. He should grab this opportunity to score 2 centuries in 2 innings.

 

[Asif321]

sweep

 

[aukhan]

This will be interesting. Sarfraz in

 

[The_KING]

Exactly!! Sad he always have to play under pressure

Imagine a middle order of Inzi, Yusuf, Younis & Misbah. That team would be tough to beat in any format.

only solid batsman is not required now, a solid batsman with good SR is required so much like zaheer abbas not miandad

 

[Shafi]

Don't see nay more 100 coming for us this innings

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

younis in odi?

 

[TheNightWatchman]

W C Grace

Like I said...Post war apart from Imran, Misbah is the best at his age.
Anyways I honestly don't know the hype behind WC Grace. He just played alot of matches

 

[IAJ]

Should look to bat once only, lead close to 300 would be great.

 

[junaid.ahmed]

Imagine a middle order of Inzi, Yusuf, Younis & Misbah. That team would be tough to beat in any format.

a big no

Asif, majid, zaheer, javed, mushatq & imran at #7 would be the best

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

I hope they can take the lead to 200 within this last session.
