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

[The_KING]

a big no

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

Did I say that my suggested middle order would be the best?

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

sarfraz is in the mood

 

[Abdullah]

I don't care how much we score tonight - I do not want to lose anymore wickets.

We have blown it a bit here- we should have been looking for a 300 hundred + lead and now there is a bit of work to do before we get there.

I want hundred from both these

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

and asad is too ........ FOUR

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

arent we being a little greedy here ......... even 500 is a hell of a score.
but yes a 300 lead would be ideal.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

I believe we should bat till lunch tomorrow. give enough time to Bangladesh to think they can chase it.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

four ...... by sarfraz

 

[Amjid Javed]

Probably a good thing SirFraz is now so we should score quickly here till close of play, we should look to bat till close of play and maybe 10 overs tomorrow, we need as much time as possible to take 10 wickets, the wicket is taking spin but still good for batting

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Ohh run a ball parternership

 

[junaid.ahmed]

Did I say that my suggested middle order would be the best?

go for the best yar

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

make at least 40 runs in 11 overs

 

[Amjid Javed]

I believe we should bat till lunch tomorrow. give enough time to Bangladesh to think they can chase it.

Chase what? we arent setting a target here! they would be batting to draw the match. We should be 200+ ahead by close of play so wud better to have a slog for 8-10 overs in morning and declare and put bangla back in.

I suggest 150 overs should be provided to them with the margin of rain

 

[Statsman]

Has the government banned internet in Bangladesh? There were so many posters till a couple of days back.

) probably gone into hiding now proper cricket is being played

 

[JibranAnsari]

Bring the lead to 200 plus today , add 100 120 tomorrow.

[TheNightWatchman]

Dumbest review EVER

 

[The_KING]

go for the best yar

theek hay yar

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Sarfraz walking habit is bag againsts pacers

 

[Amjid Javed]

Dumbest review EVER

probably hoping the 3rd umpire was going to be generous and give it out.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

28 runs for 200 lead

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

partnership already 30 odd

 

[wasimjunior]

This shakib guy meant to be best all rounder?? Lol . He would carry our drinks

 

[junaid.ahmed]

sarfaraz get ready to drop from next match

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Pak should respect the best all rounder and give a gift wicket to him for his best services to cricket

 

[The_KING]

Good running

 

[Bullet Drive]

Asad wow.

Sarf avg 45 now.

 

[The_KING]

This shakib guy meant to be best all rounder?? Lol . He would carry our drinks

One bad game doesn't mean anything.

 

[Bullet Drive]

One bad game doesn't mean anything.

Exactly. He still averages 38 in test cricket as well as 31 with the ball. Good figures, especially as hes only played 40 odd tests. He will improve.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Sarf vs spinners is always exciting.

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Any free hit in test cricket? I think it should be

 

[Anchorman]

I find myself bursting into evil sadistic laughter while watching this match. Am I the only one?

 

[wasimjunior]

Idiotic post. But typical. Your cricketing knowledge is on full show here.

Have you seen your thread that just got bumped? You're the king of trolls I aspire to be at your level.

Fact is shakib wouldn't make our team- Yasir babar shafiq hafeez all miles better.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Maiden.

 

[Bullet Drive]

I find myself bursting into evil sadistic laughter while watching this match. Am I the only one?

No. Loving it!

[The_KING]

No evil sadistic laughter but there has been a huge smile on my face throughout the day

 

[Bullet Drive]

Love Sarf confidence.

 

[Abdullah]

That pakistan dropped sarfraz and the youngster (sarfraz) would have started to doubt his abilities

Another 6 by Sir

 

[angrypathan]

[The_KING]

Well played Asad

[JibranAnsari]

Asad should get to 2000 runs mark this innings. Only 59 more to get.

 

[The_KING]

How will Sarfraz celebrate his 50?

 

[wasimjunior]

Sarf is superb against spin. Marvellous

 

[Bullet Drive]

12 balls to go.....

 

[The_KING]

Well played Sarfraz

 

[angrypathan]

50 for Sir

 

[Bilal7]

We have found the Pakistani Gilchrist or another Kamran Akmal. I pray that its the former.

 

[Shafi]

Congratulation Sarfraz!!! Keep building innings

 

[Mir jibran]

the best wicketkeeper batsman to emerge from pakistan

 

[TheNightWatchman]

SARFI

 

[shaaik]

Well done sarfi. ...

 

[shaaik]

the best wicketkeeper batsman to emerge from pakistan

Who would hv thought this 2 yrs ago..

 

[aukhan]

Sarf has shown good consistency in Test.

His approach has been refreshing and has made our Test batting lineup more balanced.

 

[Madplayer]

Well done to sarfaraz. Whattay boy

 

[angrypathan]

Stumps. Pakistan 537-5, Shakib with 122

 

[Adeel Naseem]

He should bat At 6 un odi

 

[Madplayer]

Very good day for Pakistan. Few hiccups in the middle but over all a good day.

 

[aukhan]

Pakistan 537/5

End of 3rd Day's play.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Well done both 51*

 

[wasimjunior]

Who would hv thought this 2 yrs ago..

He was atrocious then! Remember his performance in South Africa he looked a sitting duck.

Credit to him for hard work as he's clearly a much improved player.
Just hope this is the start of him

 

[The_KING]

Great day of play for Pakistan. Very pleased

 

[Mir jibran]

Who would hv thought this 2 yrs ago..

hard work
sarfaraz took his critics seriously and came back as a improved player

 

[shaaik]

He was atrocious then! Remember his performance in South Africa he looked a sitting duck.

Just hope this is the start of him

My word... I remember that and the hopelessness after watching him fail match after match as I had high expectations of him after he won us that under19 world cup.... I thought he wd be some force to reckon with in international but all that hope was gradually fading away until he was promoted up the order in that test match against Sri Lanka where we chased 310 odd runs in 60 overs... he was the game changer in that match since then there has been no looking back for him.. I wish he continues to improve coz in a a couple of years once Misbah leaves he wd be leading us in tests.
