[wmuhammad63]

D

 

[wmuhammad63]

In Sha Allah Pakistan is going to win this match and it will be extremely good boost going into the remaining of the series. Love You Pakistan

 

[saeed5646]

D) Pakistan is going to win.

 

[On_the_up]

Think Shane Warne's theory about B being right 85% of the time is going to end up being true.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

E) It will be a tie game

 

[Madplayer]

E) It will be a tie game

Thats so unlikely to happen with just 100 odd to get and only two wickets left.

 

[JibranAnsari]

A most likely.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

A

 

[classic]

Heart says Pakistan will win it. Asad Shafiq will be unbeaten & Yasir will play the best sensible innings of his career. D

Mind is the problem though. B

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Shafiq added 101 with Zulfi in 2015.....

 

[Syed1]

My head says Aussies win by 80 odd runs but my heart say Pak pull off a miraculous victory.

 

[Madplayer]

Shafiq added 101 with Zulfi in 2015.....

Zulfi can tonk a few. Yasir can do a bit of it as well. Most importantly they need to believe they can do it.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

I think biggest issue is the first 5 overs tomorrow. If we survive anything can happen.

 

[khalil1986]

Too tall of an ask especially with Rahat who is a complete bunny.

Either way impressed with the fight

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Too tall of an ask especially with Rahat who is a complete bunny.

Either way impressed with the fight

Rahat can survive about 15-20 balls.

 

[Pete Rose]

I am bracing myself for A. We have a history of heartbreaks. Ppl need to stop hating on Rahats batting. him and sohail batted for something like 15 overs at edgbaston

 

[Madplayer]

Rahat can survive about 15-20 balls.

Thats enough for him to score 100 runs.

 

[Boi]

Thats so unlikely to happen with just 100 odd to get and only two wickets left.

A tie as in the scores being level when we get bowled out. If there's no rain about then there's more chance of that happening than a draw.

 

[aloo paratha]

I see B as the most likely but hopefully D

 

[ali ray]

Can Yasir shah and Rahat ali will do unexpected?

I think it was very great effort by pakistanis to get close to the target after after being 5 down for 170 odd runs, keeping in mind that our all the tailenders flury with the bat, will the tradition of today repeats tomorrow or we will be folded in no time but the hope against the hope is always their but it is very very daunting task...

 

[Madplayer]

Oh sorry i misunderstood. Although that is also very unlikely.

 

[Syed1]

Rahat better be practicing his forward defense all night all long

 

[Markhor]

Rahat better be practicing his forward defense all night all long

Its a day-nighter so afternoon start - Yasir and Rahat should have the mother of all net sessions in the morning.

 

[sam_ahm]

I hate to say this but Australia should be able to wrap it up quickly.

108 runs are a lot, it cannot happen folks, I'd loved to be proved wrong, but most likely Australia will wrap it up quickly.

 

[Madplayer]

Most people are going to go with B i reckon

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan will come close , but loose.

Australia will win by 25 runs

 

[Hawkeye]

First hour will be crucial.

90% chance that Aus will wrap things up within the first session.

Let's not kid ourselves that reaching the target is possible with 2 tailenders left.

Did enough.

 

[Pete Rose]

Pakistan will come close , but loose.

Australia will win by 25 runs

I wouldnt mind that. would be compelling viewing. I would hate for it to be over in two overs though.

 

[msb314]

Thats so unlikely to happen with just 100 odd to get and only two wickets left.

Actually it is more likely than a draw (unless thats what you meant).

THe closer we get - nerves take over and a suicidal run attempt or a brain fade can easily result in a tie

It will be D!

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Imagine we had Sohail Khan here instead of Rahat Ali

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Asad Shafiq falls early in the day followed by Yasir Shah.
Would be happy if Pakistan prove me wrong.

 

[Adil_94]

i think we will be all out 415-420

 

[hadi123]

B but am very proud of this fight

 

[Cricfan4eva]

Pakistan to fall agonizingly close of the target. 30-40 runs perhaps.

But not sure that would be a bad thing, they'll carry the momentum to MCG.

 

[TalhaSyed]

Heart says D

But for some reason head says C

Hope the heart wins this one!

 

[Thivagar]

Pakistan has done really well to come back.

Good one. Really witty.

What are the chances of play being washed out? Make no mistake, that would be like a win for Pak.

 

[Syed1]

Absolutely no chance of rain

Oh thank you very much.

No chance of rain tomorrow so I guess nothing can save Australia

Rahat can summon the rain clouds if he wants, but I think he doesn't want to go easy on the Aussies

 

[HussainRx8]

A or B seem the most plausible at the moment.

This is a monumental score for any one batsman. The tail has to contribute rather than defend.

 

[shaz619]

Indeed my friend, it has all been a part of a grand scheme the man is the master of playing possum; they say expect the unexpected from Zeus The Destroyer Ali but I doubt he's aware of what to expect from himself, such an individual makes for an extremely DANGEROUS entity

 

[Chrish]

Hope Pakistan reaches 400 at least.. it will be deserving

 

[TalhaSyed]

I will send you a cake with Amir in one half and the other Asif and a little mini salman butt cherry on top which you won't even notice

I'm sure you could 'fix up' such a delightful cake

Haha iA man. Just 100 runs, every run will put the Aussies under tremendous pressure. Just hope the tailenders support Rahat.

 

[Belawal2014]

Even if we get bundled out early, I wouldn't be disappointed tbh, we've shown amazing grit.

 

[ahmadharis1]

Bracing myself for a loss

 

[Mamoon]

I fear it will be an anti-climatic day with Australia taking the two wickets without any fuss. They will come out with a plan, that's for sure.

 

[Madplayer]

Oh boy

So u have beeb proved wrong already.

 

[Madplayer]

C It is then guys

 

[Madplayer]

Pakistan will come close , but loose.

Australia will win by 25 runs

By far the most accurate prediction. Congrats.

 

[Mamoon]

Yes, one of the craziest matches I've seen. It had absolutely everything.
