Pakistan fightback to restrict Australia to 187/6 at Stumps on Day 3 of the 2nd Test

[kingusama92]

Disgusting.

Shan Masood is a complete idiot for keeping him there. Simple as that.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Match Ka Mujrim - Abdullah Shafiq.

 

[Suleiman]

Why is this dumb guy still in the slips.

We always have a Kamran in the midst it seems

 

[160KPH]

We are 1 or 2 wickets from winning or losing this match. Come on Hasan!!

 

[topspin]

Why is Shafique still fielding in the slips?!

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

Can someone remove him from slips.
Why we always wait for a person to do 2 3 mistakes than thinking about removing him from that place

 

[Champ_Pal]

Atrocious fielding.

 

[Buffet]

oh,,, dropped a regulation catch there.

 

[adzzy786]

Abdullah Shafique CAN NOT CATCH!

 

[kingusama92]

WOW

Now Shan Masood with a blooper.

 

[160KPH]

We could have won both matches if Abdullah Shafique held onto catches in the slips… maybe we should put a different slip fielder there at this point

 

[BouncerGuy]

Abdullah is playing for Australia here. what the hell is he doing in slips.

 

[Buffet]

I don't think he should be fielding there.

 

[Suleiman]

Tape this guys hands together and put him on the boundary edge for the rest of his career.

Complete and utter moron.

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

And Shafique is still there.....

 

[stani_pak]

Abdualla Shafique needs to make it up withi his batting he might have dropped the match

 

[Nasty Naz]

omg how is Abdullah still in slips. Players need to start yelling at this clown for these drops. Dropped the match here now.

 

[YousafTheBeast]

No point blaming Shafique for the catch, Stevie Wonder would’ve been able to tell you that he can’t catch.

 

[adzzy786]

If only Babar had half the guts of Shafique, Shan and Jamal.

if shafique could catch

 

[Seen Sheen]

Getting flashbacks of Sydney 2010 when Akmal dropped Hussey.

 

[Suleiman]

Everybody and their dog knew this would happen. Literally everyone called it. That this blank dud would drop it again.

He cant catch a cold at this point. to hell with his self confidence, move him out from the slips.

Negative points for Shan too. Why would you keep him there?

 

[7sins]

It's team and captain fault why the heck shafique was still in the slips games done now

 

[Buffet]

I know that but he was crying about speed

Why anyone will complain about pace. All Pakistani bowlers are bowling at low speed so if they don't have height like Afridi then it make sense to stand a bit up.

 

[adzzy786]

Getting flashbacks of Sydney 2010 when Akmal dropped Hussey.

Don’t say that I remember that game clearly

 

[Seen Sheen]

This dropped catch has knocked the wind out of the team's sails.. Everyone looks deflated.

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

The easiest of slip catches. REally the perfect height.

 

[Nasty Naz]

Absurd Abdullah is still in the slips. He's cost us the match.

 

[batandballbattle]

there you go, that's the turning point
you just feel that marsh is going to bat us out of this game now

 

[Suleiman]

Kamran somehow drop shipped himself from Sydney 2010 and is now standing in slips.

No wonder our fans are pessimistic.

 

[160KPH]

I’m so sad.. such brilliant bowling at times in both matches all lost to bad catching.

Even Warner was out early in the first match if we had held onto our catches.

 

[7sins]

Aus could have been 6 down

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Huge blunder by Masood keeping him in there. Taking the shine off his captaincy decisions.

 

[Buffet]

This dropped catch has knocked the wind out of the team's sails.. Everyone looks deflated.

They shouldn't be. 2 wicket here and Aus won't get a decent total. Ball is doing enough and it won't be easy for tail to score many.

 

[adzzy786]

Why are they stood so far back? They should stand behind the rope

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Shafique needs to be dropped from every format until he learns how to catch.

 

[Buffet]

2 wickets in the next 20 runs can come.

 

[7sins]

Shafique needs to be dropped from every format until he learns how to catch.

He can catch but slip is not the right position for him

 

[Suleiman]

Why are they stood so far back? They should stand behind the rope

Abdullah should go stand in the crowd. Will be equally if not more useful. What a dunce.

 

[adzzy786]

Genuine question does Shafique have prathas during his lunch? Still has butter residue on his fingers?

 

[Seen Sheen]

It will take a huge mental effort from the team to keep their morale up after that dropped catch.

 

[Buffet]

Shafique needs to be dropped from every format until he learns how to catch.

Some are simply not a good slip fielder. Why not move him somewhere else? Even the ones he caught, he did not look comfortable.

 

[shaaik]

Yeah. Mark Waugh and Keefe saying the same thing.

Everybody and their dog knew this would happen. Literally everyone called it. That this blank dud would drop it again.

He cant catch a cold at this point. to hell with his self confidence, move him out from the slips.

Negative points for Shan too. Why would you keep him there?

I can’t think of anyone to replace him with.. can u ??

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Unbelievable that he's still there.

 

[Seen Sheen]

Good areas from Jamal since that horror first over. Probing. If he keeps this up, another chance will come.

 

[Nasty Naz]

It's mind-boggling how he's still in the slips. Like why. Literally put anyone else there. This is nuts.

 

[batandballbattle]

if you're going to keep shafique there tell riz to get his superman cape on to dive in front

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Shafique has inflicted more damage on Pakistan through his fielding than Australia has with his batting.

 

[deltexas]

Think shafiq dropped the match here. That was a dolly jeez.

 

[Suleiman]

I can’t think of anyone to replace him with.. can u ??

Any one who hasn’t dropped regulation catches in the last few games / sessions? Is that too much to ask?

 

[Buffet]

Pakistan is 2 wicket away from winning this test. Forget the catch drop...

 

[Seen Sheen]

I can’t think of anyone to replace him with.. can u ??

Babar has fielded in the slips, albeit against spinners.

 

[adi_62941]

I am sensing a langer-gilchrist 1999 type of partnership here.

 

[7sins]

Pakistan is 2 wicket away from winning this test. Forget the catch drop...

Players can't forget about the drop catch until that same player still out there

 

[adi_62941]

Babar has fielded in the slips, albeit against spinners.

Dont listen to commentators.

 

[batandballbattle]

jamal cranking it up past 140
must be the anger coming out after that drop

 

[Buffet]

Come on , get a wicket. Aus has just 100 odd runs and 4 down.

 

[ChTab]

Getting flashbacks of Sydney 2010 when Akmal dropped Hussey.

Not really Pakistan was Infront in that match literally from ball 1. Only Pakistan could've lost that game. Even Ban & NED would have won that match from the position Pakistan were in.

 

[7sins]

Chances will come again bowlers just need to keelit tight we are just 1 wicket away

 

[Suleiman]

please be out. This marsh dude is so freaking lucky. How many decisions overturned and lives given to this bub. Enough already

 

[mazkhan]

One thing is clear for me likes of Abdullah shafiq, imam ul haq , saud shakeel and sarfraz need to be discarded from the international team.

Start looking for other players

 

[Buffet]

Looked out ....

 

[hur rizvi]

Shafiq has single handedly deflated the team

 

[Suleiman]

How does this guy get every umpires call in his favor rofl

 

[Buffet]

Got lucky here.

 

[batandballbattle]

marsh survives drs again
living the most charmed life

 

[Seen Sheen]

Umpire Gough's two umpires call going against Pakistan.

 

[shaaik]

Any one who hasn’t dropped regulation catches in the last few games / sessions? Is that too much to ask?

That’s a given but who among the 10 can you put there .. 5 bowlers 1 is already there in 2nd slip. Shan doesn’t field in slips neither does Imam. Babar is in 3rd slip, Saud in gully .. leaves you with none ..

 

[hur rizvi]

Marsh will be man of the match

 

[BouncerGuy]

How many times this marsh guy is going to survive on a review? Luck is not only on his side. Luck is in his pockets now.

 

[Buffet]

Not that crap of bowling that short

 

[Suleiman]

That’s a given but who among the 10 can you put there .. 5 bowlers 1 is already there in 2nd slip. Shan doesn’t field in slips neither does Imam. Babar is in 3rd slip, Saud in gully .. leaves you with none ..

Im sure Shan and Imam can’t do worse than this bum. He’s 0 for 2 rn. Not hard to beat.

 

[7sins]

Clear signs we are unlucky

 

[7sins]

Don't give free runs keep it tight

 

[shaaik]

Im sure Shan and Imam can’t do worse than this bum. He’s 0 for 2 rn. Not hard to beat.

Imam I m not sure of .. Shan definitely!!

 

[angrypathan]

How do you give 2 there?

 

[Nasty Naz]

Unlucky for Pakistan. Dropped catch and surviving an LBW. Disappointing stuff.

 

[Suleiman]

We are such a lazy side… can’t even capitalize when game is in the palm..

 

[Ahmed216]

Proud of the bowlers effort in this game. Lions all of them. Just wish it was Imran butt playing for us in this game not Abdullah

 

[adzzy786]

Clear signs we are unlucky

Dropping catches isn’t unlucky . If we had kept the catch we wouldn’t be in this situation. Australia will score 250 runs- I call it now

 

[Buffet]

it was not 2 there.
