Pakistan bowled out for 273 in the first innings on Day 3 as England opt to enforce follow-on

[Faisalabadimunda]

Our lame tails fails to act once again

 

[Thephenom]

Something really needs to be done when coaching the bowlers how to bat, no excuses for not practicing your batting

 

[sweep_shot]

Azhar should be protecting tail.

True. Broad and Anderson should be too good for any tail.

 

[Mamoon]

Lol you need some base to work on. He is legit #11 stuff

One of our three #11s

He has got a pretty decent bat swing. There is some batting potential.

Abbas is a genuine bunny.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Azhar should open the batting next

 

[King_Kohli]

Pakistan's second inns could be starting soon

20 overs to go today

Shan 2.0 waiting...………….

 

[AdamM97]

Azhar needs to keep the strike for the most part now.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Azhar got to protect the tail now aswell as go for shots himself. We have just about 1 hour today. This last 1 hour could decide if Pak r to draw this match

 

[sweep_shot]

Azhar should open the batting next

I think they should send in nightwatchman along with one opener. Not many overs are left today.

 

[sindhiboy]

anderson wont get a 5 fer despite taking the first 4 wickets.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Go for the shots now Azhar.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I think they should send in nightwatchman along with one opener. Not many overs are left today.

It should be Azhar and Rizwan

 

[castortroy]

Will be batting again tomorrow morning

 

[sweep_shot]

He has got a pretty decent bat swing. There is some batting potential.

Abbas is a genuine bunny.

Abbas has a highest score of 29. He seems more capable with the bat than Shaheen.

All three (Naseem, Shaheen, and Abbas) should improve batting.

 

[AdamM97]

It should be Azhar and Rizwan

Nah send in Abbas. He has been a good night-watchman on previous occassions.

 

[Kroll]

its embarrassing having so many bunnies in the tail

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Nah send in Abbas. He has been a good night-watchman on previous occassions.

Yasir and Azhar let's lock this pair lol

 

[Deewana Mastana]

its embarrassing having so many bunnies in the tail

Aren't there bunnies apart from in the tail

 

[sweep_shot]

I think this is the worst Pakistani tail I have seen in my lifetime.

Previous tails could slog and score quick runs (Hassan Ali, Umar Gul etc.).

 

[Ab Fan]

Shaheen's wikipedia says, he is a bowling all-rounder. So, he must have batted a bit in domestic or at lower level.

 

[Kroll]

Aren't there bunnies apart from in the tail

true, cant be that harsh i suppose

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Edged and dropped Azhar gets a life

 

[Afhan Ali]

Catching practice lol

 

[King_Kohli]

Need to get 384 to avoid follow-on, that's a long way off.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Edged again and dropped again Abbas this time

 

[AdamM97]

Yasir and Azhar let's lock this pair lol

Wouldn’t mind that

 

[Rajdeep]

Extremely sloppy from England.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Burns has a chuckle with that drop

 

[sweep_shot]

250 is up.

252/8.

 

[Kroll]

Need to get 384 to avoid follow-on, that's a long way off.

that aint happening

 

[Deewana Mastana]

England will bat again

 

[sweep_shot]

Two drops!

England are making things difficult for them.

 

[King_Kohli]

Anderson crying for dropping catches.

 

[King_Kohli]

Cracking shot.

 

[Slog]

Shaheen's wikipedia says, he is a bowling all-rounder. So, he must have batted a bit in domestic or at lower level.

He probably edited his own Wikipedia page.

 

[castortroy]

Think azhar bat is in the air

 

[Afhan Ali]

Two drops!

England are making things difficult for them.

We will still loss by an Innings.

 

[Zeshan547]

Have to admit after 30-4 nobody could even dream of this position, so win or lose but oh boy we have put up a fight atleast, and made Poms work for it. Loving it, Hats off to Azhar

 

[Deewana Mastana]

What was Azhar doing there )

 

[Afhan Ali]

The Gladiator is playing wonderful.

 

[Afhan Ali]

Have to admit after 30-4 nobody could even dream of this position, so win or lose but oh boy we have put up a fight atleast, and made Poms work for it. Loving it, Hats off to Azhar

Yes Pakistanis always happy with just fight like minnows.

 

[Rajdeep]

Anderson's face )

 

[marlonbrowndo]

3 drops off Anderson

 

[castortroy]

Seriously this Pakistan tail is one of the worst.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Abbas can't run to even save his life

 

[castortroy]

Only rain can now save us. Even then, England can go through us in 2 sessions

 

[Yk313]

Anderson crying for dropping catches.

3 drops wow

 

[Deewana Mastana]

So who's saying Pak will be 20-3 tonight?

 

[sindhiboy]

the rest of the eng team are jealous of anderson and dont want him to get a 5 fer

 

[sweep_shot]

261/9.

Almost over.

 

[Abdullah719]

Shaheen’s wikipedia says, he is a bowling all-rounder. So, he must have batted a bit in domestic or at lower level.

Someone needs to fix that asap.

 

[Thephenom]

Too busy admiring the dropped catch to bother running

 

[Yk313]

How many overs left today? Not that it will matter in the grand scheme of things. Have a tiny hope that Babar will score something tomorrow to salvage his personal performance in the tour. No confidence in that though.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

If these 2 can hand in till 7pm. Bad light might come into effect.

 

[Afhan Ali]

So who's saying Pak will be 20-3 tonight?

I am saying Pakistan to score 40/3

Babar, Azhar and Shan to out tonight.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Someone needs to fix that asap.

Also the left arm fast bit

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I am saying Pakistan to score 40/3

Babar, Azhar and Shan to out tonight.

and who'll be at the crease?

 

[Ab Fan]

Broad drops a sitter and then hits a throw right on the wicket.

Anderson must be gutted after 3 drops although one of them turned into a wicket.

 

[sweep_shot]

265/9.

Can Pakistan get to 300?

 

[King_Kohli]

Why azar took single and giving strike to Naseem

 

[Amjid Javed]

Azhar just needs to play shots now.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Why azar took single and giving strike to Naseem

because he wants to stay not out

 

[TeamPak95]

A certain someone is a bit obsessed with a certain somebody else on this forum. Anyways, 9 down and great stuff from Azhar I wasn't expecting that. Unfortunately, there's still a fair amount of overs left and there's still a chance that Pakistan could end up being about 2 down at the end of the day.

 

[Afhan Ali]

and who'll be at the crease?

Abid and Hockey Player.

 

[Mueez]

[sweep_shot]

Poor Anderson deserved his 5-fer.

Three drops off his bowling.

 

[AdamM97]

How many overs left?

 

[Afhan Ali]

Pak require 2 runs to beat Crawley.

 

[sweep_shot]

How many overs left?

17 (including this over).

 

[AdamM97]

17 (including this over).

Thanks!

 

[sweep_shot]

137* for Azhar so far.

Potentially career-saving innings.

 

[ufcfan]

Azhar Ali's haters have nothing to say now,he is the best batsman after Babar Azam in this XI
He is best player to lead Pakistan,people should stand by him in times of crisis
I bet Asad Shafiq is coming good next,they are class players back them,bring Faheem/Shadab in place of Fawad Alam

 

[HasanA]

Archer is pathetic compared to Naseem

 

[sweep_shot]

Anderson gets his fifth wicket.

Naseem is out.

 

[tyron_woodley]

man this is a brutal phainta. If this test rains out, man I would feel so sorry for England. Defintiely deserve to win this series comfortably. Would be 2 0 already if it weren't for rain that hampered the previous test.

 

[castortroy]

Having a tail like this in modern day cricket is unacceptable

Naseem is young, surely must be able to hold a damn bat.

Disgusting tail

 

[Mamoon]

38 year old Anderson puts 19-20 year Pakistani bowlers to shame with his fitness and intensity.

Let’s not even talk about skill and ability which are at a completely different level.

 

[sweep_shot]

Pakistan are all out for 273. Azhar scored 141*.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Let’s hope Anderson doesn’t get 600 tonight

 

[castortroy]

SSA, Naseem and Abbas not being able to hold a bat is unacceptable
