Give it a rest!Australians are nasty. They mocked Babar and forced him to play that rash shot the next ball.
Babar is class but that was an awful shot!

He averaged 50+ in the last year.Bold prediction, but I don't think Babar will ever come good in Tests like we want him to. 55 FC matches and 21 Tests later, he still averages mid 30s..His rash tendencies and impatience won't let him. He'll still be our best white ball cricketer though.
Pakistan got 90 all out 1st innings at Brisbane in 16/17. Now it's 90/4. Improvements![]()
Exactly. He only popped on and commented as soon as Pakistan lost first wicket and said oh i just put the cricket on and Masood out. What a coincident everytime Pak doing well he's hiding as soon as a wicket falls that's when he comments and makes it look he only start watching it now.
Guys, we've got our first lock and flick of the summer! :Wasim:
More gems:
"Pakistan have undone all the good work done by Azhar Mahmood and Shan Masood"
"Asad got a lot of important hundreds for Pakistan batting under pressure"
I noticed that first one)
There's also been a lot of the typical reading the stats off the screen! haha
No we got 142 in the first innings

The 21 Tests are included in the 55 FC matches. So he has played 34 domestic matches and 21 Tests. Still a decent amount of games.

Babar will grind out centuries in Asia, but he gets overexcited on these Australia type wickets.
Look at the bright side boys! We'll get to see Naseem bowl tonight!
He is just 25. None of smith, Kohli, Root has great stats at 25Yes fair point about him doing well in the past year, but I don't see him sustaining it.
Kohli was averaging 44 till 2015 in test cricket
Now 55, things can change
How much balls will Rizwan survive ?
Any guesses
Lyon is real threat.
Top class spinner
How come people judging Babar for one bad match.
Even kohli started as an average test player. At 25 Babar better than kohli and Williamson
Screw off tim paine
WhyIn this ground..

Kohli had a better test record at the age of 25, and more match-winning ODI knocks.
Pretty shameful if you can't even get the captain's name right.
Failure is one thing but looking like a bundle of nerves and throwing away ur wicket is another.Hey man, stop making logical points. Since Babar failed today it means he will always be a failure. His age and last years stats mean nothing.
Babar should try to redeem himself by playing well in the 2nd inngs
Age didn't matter, what matters is the amount of experience playing in those conditions..he played 7 innings and avgs lessthan 10, maybe sample size is small to judge..but stop playing this nonsense age card.Hey man, stop making logical points. Since Babar failed today it means he will always be a failure. His age and last years stats mean nothing.
Have not see one pull shot today

Rizwan looking far less fidgety, and as a result, looks much better then he did in the T20s.

Needed Babar to stay in to see that happen. Only other person who can pull is Asad, but I've only ever seen him play it once he's got 30-40+ on the board.
Rizwan just played a nice pull shot.
Okay will I wake up to 180 all out or 270-8.

Expecting a warp up try from the Aussie after the tea break
Why
He is doing well everywhere right?
