Anything below 300 is chaseable. But Babar needs to finally stand up. And Abdullah Shafique needs to make amends!!!

Chasing under 260 is different mindset as Pakistan can think we are in the game . anything above 300 is difficult to chaseI feel the score may already be out of Pakistan’s reach. They are not chasing 220 let alone 275 or 300.
The score board pressure will be huge on Pakistan.
Sohail khan definitely, he had everything a fast bowler shd have , speed , movement, height.. can’t believe he was discarded after 1 game in 2009 and then brought back after 6 years when had lost most of his pace and venom ..Tabish khan Sohail Khan Mir Hamza
Deserved to play a lot more
it's really unfortunate. i feel for the bowlers, they have bowled beautifully without luck.Pakistan have been the better side all this Test match.
Its a travesty that a bad middle order 1 hour where Pakistan slipped from 123-1 to 150-5 could decide the fate of this match.
Feels really unfair.
Common even Alex, Lyon, Cummins, Hazzle, Starc are capable batsmen to score at least 170-200 all together unlike Imam, Babar cothat drop catch was the match guys. Australia will bat till lunch tomorrow, lead will easily be 375+ and there is no way in hell we are getting anywhere close.

Australia would have been bowled out much quicker if that had happened.To be fair even if Marsh got out early, Australia lower order can score 200 runs against us. We were never in winning position rather than dominate them here and there. Chasing even 150 is too much for our batsmen. Lyon will eat Parchi Imam, softie and useless Babar, Salman without any problem.
I think our limit is 230 max but at least 300 would be better than chasing customary 400+ in Australia.Shaping up to be a cracking finish. Keep it going boys. Do the country proud.
Still on track to roll them out for under 300 In Sha Allah.
Happy how the bowlers have bowled in both matches fielding/batting letting us down
Hasan bowled good in this Test. No wickets in this innings so far though, but he's entertaining the crcrowd
Oh we have let it slip a few times.Pakistan have been the better side all this Test match.

We lost many time chasing around 150-175 even with good batsmen. Currently there is not a single World class batter in our team. Imam is in the team because of his uncle, this guy will not even selected in Australia school teams. Babar always fail in pressure games. Shan has very limited ability to score over 50+. Shafique has solod defence but tuk tuk like no tomorrow. Apart from Rizwan others are just rubbish.Posts like these ruin your credibility as a poster.

disagree brother. Marsh is a game changer. He is aggressive and can take the game away from you which is what he did. That drop catch was the matchTo be fair even if Marsh got out early, Australia lower order can score 200 runs against us. We were never in winning position rather than dominate them here and there. Chasing even 150 is too much for our batsmen. Lyon will eat Parchi Imam, softie and useless Babar, Salman without any problem.
And Abdullah catching!Pakistan has done so well in this match except for the middle order batting so far, yet the posts here are so negative.
We don't have any good middle order batsman in current team...Even Asad Shafique surpassed them significantly in performance.Pakistan have been the better side all this Test match.

this is what aus always does, somehow comeback despite being dominated by the opposition. it was a constant theme throughout this year's ashesPakistan have been the better side all this Test match.

Don't know what has happened to them. Maybe not adjusted to the conditions but Babar, Saud and Salman are better than that.We don't have any good middle order batsman in current team...Even Asad Shafique surpassed them significantly in performance.
Good fightback. I mean this aussie side isn't even that Good. Just have 2 good bowlers and home bully batsmen.This game is done...
I knew it, never believed Pakistan had what it took to win a game like this..
Hope they can prove me wrong but won't happen.
Against this overrated attack yes we can but we won't. Don't have the attitude and the mental toughness to do it.There's always a first time. Pakistan could chase down 350. Over the last few years , the MCG has flattened out as the match gone on.
Again good performance from our bowlers...
They seemed to be the weak link when the series started.
Make no mistake that catch off Marsh should not have been dropped.Good fightback. I mean this aussie side isn't even that Good. Just have 2 good bowlers and home bully batsmen.
Shame on a team that allowed them to win wtc.
We let them off the hook.
AGAIN.
Could have buried australia
We fought hard. Could have done better.

I hope so... But you are asking for too muchPakistan should fight tooth and nail to win this. This is a golden opportunity to win a test match on Australian soil after around 3 decades. All batsman must take responsibility and contribute. I am sounding too optimistic but this embarrassment on Australian soil must end. Anything under 300 can be chased
New ball would be crucial. Though I hate to say it but We wd need Imam blunt the new ball and hold one end up. Rest of the batters can play around him. That’s our only chance or someone playing a blinder like Asad Shafeeq in 2016 Perth.There's always a first time. Pakistan could chase down 350. Over the last few years , the MCG has flattened out as the match gone on.
Some are simply not a good slip fielder. Why not move him somewhere else? Even the ones he caught, he did not look comfortable.
He can catch but slip is not the right position for him
Cummins apart the attack is wildly overratedSo a bowler in Cummins who has a better strike rate in Tests than other Australian great seamers is overrated?
Seriously , you ain't got a clue.
We let them off the hook. So angry. But yea good effort.Now we can see the aggression and mojo that were missing earlier. What a fight from Mir Hamza and Shaheen Shah Afridi on Day 3. Bowlers are doing their job, which we had concerns about before the series, and the batters are not doing the job, we were confident about before the series.
Poor fielding and irresponsible batting are costing us, otherwise, we had a 90% chance to win this test match.We let them off the hook. So angry. But yea good effort.
Respect for Pakistan.
Respect for Shan Masood.
He was asked to lead this side because the previous leadership group had a sulk, they wanted the party to continue for them with their unquestionable strategies, but PCB finally put the food down on them. Pakistan have shown that they can still compete with the best Test nations, even though they are fighting a losing game.
