Pakistan (271 & 89) suffer a humiliating 360-run loss to Australia (487 & 233/5d) in the 1st Test match

[Croma]

Babar with another effortless 4

 

[Suleiman]

STadium is almost empty.

Its a sunday

Foregone conclusion the public thinks. They are tired of watching their boys rag doll Pak for over 20 years.

I heard Pakistan jeetay gay in the background

 

[MenInG]

If australia wins here 3-0 they wont be inviting pak for 3 test series again for sure

Can we get over this?

FTP, WTC

Australia does not have a choice.

 

[Szd_khan75]

We are losing only cause of 3 players. Shaheen afridi. Worst bowler factoring in both teams.
I think he is playing with an injury and it's entirely on inept pcb for allowing this to continue.

Then the other 2 players that ruined our chances of making some sort of indent on austrakis near 500 score are tuk tuk babar and sarfraz.

We need dynamic players. Period. Cant have these useless stat padders play.

Also special mention to whichever idiot thought it was a great idea to send in a night watchman.

Thanks alot pcb.

Either he’s injured or he’s finished as a test bowler wahab has selected a bunch of medium pacers

warner was the difference in this test

warner and faheem ashraf and pak fielding won Australia the test match

 

[Human786]

These 2 have started well .

 

[Croma]

Pulled for 4!

Shakeel

 

[AAli98]

All is well apparently Wasim akram ‘had a chat with the boys before start of play’

 

[Croma]

Babar and SHakeel can use this game as net practise, become selfish and..

Cummins is here now. and then Marsh. Please smash Marsh

Babar gets to double figures !

 

[Croma]

All is well apparently Wasim akram ‘had a chat with the boys before start of play’

I think Akram was part of the team that won a test match or 2 in AUstralia...

 

[Human786]

I think around 200 AO .

 

[Rana]

Yes you can't even blame Babar or Rizwan anymore hashaahahahahahahaahahah

You can

Babar and Rizwan influencing everything in the last 3-4 years has lead to this massive humiliation today. I can blame them for everything under the sun

 

[Croma]

Lion is here

 

[Croma]

Will Babar be his 500th wicket?

 

[Croma]

Babar is looking rock solid.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Pakistan have surpassed India's low total of 36

 

[Croma]

edges and falls short and almost a run out.

Babar has luck on his side today

 

[Croma]

Pakistan have surpassed India's low total of 36

Moral Victory

 

[Human786]

Hopefully Pakistan play with 4 bowlers & Faheem as the 5th bowling option in next . On a spicy pitch here they allowed Aussies to get 233/5 in 63 overs !

 

[Croma]

Is that leg slip required?

 

[Human786]

Lyon not doing much .

 

[Croma]

No review?

 

[Croma]

easy single, but SHakeel was day dreaming

 

[SamNJ]

This is a dangerous pitch. Match should be abandoned.

 

[Croma]

Dangerous bounce ... 4...

 

[Rana]

The way Babar played that last ball flying past his ear

King karlega

Please no Faheem

 

[Croma]

This is a dangerous pitch. Match should be abandoned.

White man pitch always good.

 

[Sycamore]

Dangerous playing conditions, abandon play now please

 

[BouncerGuy]

Babar is gone. Cummins has his reward

 

[Human786]

nice partnership going . .. & out !!!

 

[Croma]

GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!

KING GAYA

 

[Rana]

It’s a dangerous pitch when Australia bowl but not when Pakistan bowled

 

[imshally81]

Babar gone

 

[RidiculousMan]

The way Babar played that last ball flying past his ear

King karlega

We all knew Perth is going to be the biggest Test for Pakistan and no surprises really. But so far it looks as if among the batters only Babar and Saud have prepared for the Aussie series. The rest looks to be just wigging it thus far.

 

[Rana]

Oh boy we are soooooo bad

 

[SamNJ]

That is just too good. Didn't even nick it, it took thumbs of the glove.

 

[Croma]

Please send Salman

 

[RidiculousMan]

It’s a dangerous pitch when Australia bowl but not when Pakistan bowled

They have more pace, height and are more skilled and experienced.

 

[Croma]

Why Sarfaraz? Is he that good?

 

[RidiculousMan]

How long before Tea?

 

[castortroy]

Pak will be bowled out for below a 100 here

 

[Rana]

Sarfaraz in taking the deserved spot of Rizwan…..


Let’s all start crying again

 

[boomboomcheema]

Softie gone .

 

[Croma]

SHakeel SMASHEs... the fielder...

 

[Rana]

Saud smashed Labushange in the…

 

[Croma]

No weakness in this bolwing attack so far. Everyone waiting for Marsh to bowl.

 

[SamNJ]

MCG Sydney will be worse. At least here you can leave the ball due to bounce.

 

[Croma]

Cummins to Sarfaraz will be good to watch

 

[Croma]

CUmmins accuracy has been amazinf so far. How can Sarf survive?

 

[Croma]

Every ball has gone over the wicket. Just leave all of them

 

[Croma]

Sarf has opened his account

 

[hur rizvi]

This is certainly not going to day 5

 

[Croma]

SHakeel gets to double figures

 

[Croma]

TEA

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Winning/ drawing a test seems a bigger achievement than an ICC title for Pak. This is just beyond believable. 35 years and counting!!!!

 

[hafizexpress]

Babar got out to a brute. That thing flew high. very uneven bounce

 

[adi_62941]

Can we get over this?

FTP, WTC

Australia does not have a choice.

Why are you angry on me. I am not australian

 

[Mamoon]

My my my my my

“The last time Pakistan did not lose a Test match in Australia, Javed Miandad was still playing international cricket”

I dare Pakistan to make me stop making this statement.

 

[AMSS]

Watching Babar the Bradman look all at sea confirms what a titanic effort it was from Pujara the last two series there putting his body in line to stop the AUS trio.

 

[MenInG]

Why are you angry on me. I am not australian

apologies

 

[Savak]

Pakistan keeps coming to Australia with zero planning or preparations. It is criminal to come to Australia on the back of a gruelling Asia Cup, ODI WC. You need a team that has had 2 months off, a good training camp and has come a month in advance to give yourself a chance

 

[Asif321]

Babar is embarrassing

 

[RidiculousMan]

Huge Test coming up for Pakistan. Can they survive till stumps and take it to Day 5?

P.S: I think not.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Pakistan are just a terrible team in the Southern Hemisphere. Been that way since 2011

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

TBH...that over to Babar was top class crazy - i'd dare most batsmen to play it out properly. That ball that took off - creates havoc in most batsmen's minds, the ball that got him was another bullet...the bounce is becoming uneven in some areas....

 

[BouncerGuy]

1st Test Update: Tea (day 4) at Perth Stadium

Australia: 487 & 233-5d

Pakistan: 271 & 53-4 (17 over)

Pakistan need 397 runs to win.

 

[MANU ROY]

If australia wins here 3-0 they wont be inviting pak for 3 test series again for sure

Why don't they like easy win

 

[Human786]

Please no Faheem

But every Test team needs 4 proper bowlers & a semi-decent 5th bowling option which imo Salman is not .

 

[adi_62941]

Why don't they like easy win

I think it has to be with profits and earnings. Maybe they are not making profit when pak team tours australia while they make heft amount of money while india travels there.

 

[MANU ROY]

Who start to call babar king babar

 

[Croma]

Sarfaraz needs to take on WOrld CLass Lyon... Just show some aggression

 

[Croma]

3
Well done Sarfaraz!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Niroshan Dickwella knowing they were going to get canned started playing shots and got some success in one of the innings. Can sarfraz do that?

 

[Croma]

Spectators are expecting the 500th wicket...

 

[Croma]

and 2 random Pakistanis are shouting Pakistan Zindabad

 

[Kianig89]

Pakistan àre seriously ridiculing the Test format , some serious decisions required

 

[Croma]

Starc to Sarf...

 

[Kianig89]

Any purpose the rellu katta batting served

 

[Human786]

2 hours of play left . Does the game go to day 5 ? OUTTTTTTTTTTT
