Sarfraz is batting like a raw fish, very undercooked.

He's chancy but that why's he got a test s/r of 75-76 or so. But don't forget his 45 average either.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Sarfaraz rubbing off on Braistow

 

[#GreenRoars]

Is that a drop??

Yes, an easy one.

 

[asyed]

Com'on Sarfraz don't play a maiden here.

 

[Pete Rose]

I think Pak in a pretty good position now. 250 lead with 4 wickets in hand. Impressed by your main man Shafiq...

If we can bat through to tomorrow, will be challenging for England, esp if Pak can hold their catches in eng's innings.

I would like us to find a way to bat an for an hour tomorrow. Tough with the new ball. As for shafiq, he needs these innings to get more confidence for the long run. But it's inevitable, Pakistan need to promote him higher.

 

[imshally81]

Ball is Reversing clearly..

[Mamoon]

Two terrible keepers on show. The standards have dropped.

 

[Hasan123]

Lmao as soon as Atherton and Holding was praising Bairstow keeping I knew he would drop a catch soon after

 

[IAJ]

That will keep the keeper quite for a while.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Test cricket truly alive and kicking in england. I also like the fact that english side keeps on churning out talented bats and bowlers. Very under rated in this regard.

Proper dog fight between pakistani batsman and english bowlers right now. Loving this.

Absolutely amazing to watch

 

[Muhammad10]

Bairstow returns the favour.

 

[imshally81]

Great Shot

[#GreenRoars]

Woaaah Yasir? That was amazing shot

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Beautiful shot
Fouuuuuuuuuur

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Great off his pads is Yasir. So elegant on the on side

 

[PakFan2010]

That's for the idiots who say slip and keepers should move right behind the batsmen, It's ridiculously hard. Very good shot from Shah, top order material in the future.

 

[QalandarFan]

Yasir with a four.

 

[imshally81]

Wow

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Four morrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[Hasan123]

England need a proper keeper and spinner. They are too obssessd with batting depth. There main batters aren't even peforming and there worried about number 8 and 9 holding a bat.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

2 in a row. Great stuff!!! 24 partnership

 

[#GreenRoars]

An other amazing shot from Shah

 

[Pete Rose]

260 runs, love it

 

[Muhammad10]

Yasirrrr!!!

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Hahahah Finnn

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Feel bad for Finn lol. Just kidding Im loving this

 

[adarsh_bang]

Yasir is frustrating England. I think its fair to say this match has been Yasir versus Woakes!

 

[asyed]

Thank you Bairstow for returning the favor, we were very generous too.

 

[QalandarFan]

Lol Yasir with another four.

 

[ViciousMachine]

Yasir!!! Great stuff !!!

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

You can't create a wicket keeper, England better go with a specialist keeper, Bairstow and Buttler aren't specialist keepers.

 

[Hasan123]

Unlucky for Finn. Hope it dents his confidence further. Need to target one of Broad or Finn so cook is forced to bring on moen

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Sarfraz showing why he's a star wicket keeper batsman.

He's in the mold of Gilchrist.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

260 lead now.

Keep scoring.

 

[adarsh_bang]

Sarfraz is almost feeding Yasir the strike

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Great batring yasir bhai

 

[asyed]

Valuable boundaries.

 

[Pete Rose]

A big innings for sarfaraz and his test cricketing future.

 

[LowKiiSavage]

Really enjoying test cricket man. So fun. Thankyou ecb for finally inviting us. Late but better than never.

 

[Hasan123]

You can't create a wicket keeper, England better go with a specialist keeper, Bairstow and Buttler aren't specialist keepers.

There to obssessd with batting depth.

 

[asyed]

Lead is 260, this is great!

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

But without Gilchrists all star batting lineup

 

[QalandarFan]

Lead by 260 only need 40 more to get too 300.

 

[MMHS]

Of 63 balls, Yasir has played 40; which is great to his credit; but not a great tactics.

 

[LowKiiSavage]

Sarfraz is almost feeding Yasir the strike

This is not a good strategy imo. Should not expose the tail.

 

[imshally81]

Another one

[#GreenRoars]

Hafeez, please learn something from Yasir

MashAllah.

 

[adarsh_bang]

What a fantastic side this English test cricket team is. Top batters, top bowlers. Wonder what it'll look like once Anderson retires

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

A big innings for sarfaraz and his test cricketing future.

He's already proved himself to be an awesome wicket-keeper test batsman for Pak, best one I have seen.

 

[PakFan2010]

Hafeez can learn a lot from Yasir Shah!

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Yasir you freaking LEGEND !!!!! another

 

[haroon91]

lovin yasir's thirdman 4sssss

 

[aukhan]

hahaha 4 again

 

[pak4life]

Our openers could learn a few things the way yasir is fighting this out.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Misbah and second innings failures along with his buddies

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Amazing from Yasir

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Four

Yasir now scored 20 runs. Who would have thought that when he was 2 from 24 balls.

 

[LowKiiSavage]

Yasir you beauty. <3

Big shame for hack rahat and wahab. Got ducks. Pathetic attitude.

 

[Pete Rose]

england look deflated

 

[Professor]

Yasir Shah seems to be protecting Sarfaraz from the strike so far

 

[QalandarFan]

WOW! Yasir with another four!

 

[adarsh_bang]

Yasir has batted better than azhar and younis... Much better than shan masoud

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Yasir Farming the strike now #BOSS

 

[Muhammad10]

Another 20 there please

Yasir has done it very nicely.

 

[asyed]

Again, I don't like this. Sarfraz is exposing Yasir too much. Yasir playing too many balls in this partnership.

 

[Hasan123]

Drop off Bairstow and Moen peformances in 1st innings should show England it's better to have speclist than worry about batting depth. Have a proper spinner instead of Meon and better keeper than Bairstow. Woakes at 8 and Broad at 9 is enough depth. Bairstow just concentrating just on his batting will make him an even better batsmen

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Yasir Legend has won it alone for Pakistan. What a fighter.!!!

 

[Rayyman]

I'd replace Younis with Yasir at 4

 

[Pete Rose]

He's already proved himself to be an awesome wicket-keeper test batsman for Pak, best one I have seen.

You know how it works, need to do it away

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

350 must be the target, at least.

 

[asyed]

Yasir frustrating ENG big time here.

 

[Mamoon]

Yasir could also be considered for captaincy after Misbah.

I'm personally in favor of Shafiq.

 

[Hasan123]

Yasir has done it very nicely.

20 run parnerships from the last 4 wickets and we're past 300

 

[Professor]

Why was Riaz batting ahead of Shah for so long? Hopefully they stick with this batting order from now on,

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Must get a 300 run lead, psychologically that will be huge, anything after that would be a bonus

 

[adarsh_bang]

England sensing a wicket here.. Sarfraz getting frustrated

 

[Nado_]

34 runs more , come on boys!!
