Pakistan reach 328/4 at stumps on Day 1 of the 1st Test against England

[Devadwal]

Woakes is garbage bowler but so are rest of the English bowling attack

 

[imshally81]

World record??

It seems

 

[Mas-LFC]

Nice drive

 

[Rana]

Sharam Kar Saim

Sharam kar

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Ultra conservative batting led to his dismissal. Too focussed on defense

Looks like he will another M.Ashraful.

 

[sindhiboy]

This is why Woakes doesn't play away from home, lol.

 

[Hellion]

Ball coming on beautifully to the bat. That was the purpose of the grass, lol.

 

[FearlessRoar]

Opening stands between Saim Ayub and Abdullah Shafique in Tests:

[imshally81]

Wide

 

[mominsaigol]

Woakes is garbage bowler

The moment rizwan comes on you'll whine? And say pitch is a mine field?

 

[Devadwal]

Pakistan should be looking for 500+ runs against this attack.

 

[imshally81]

Ball coming on beautifully to the bat. That was the purpose of the grass, lol.

Now waiting for cracks to open up....

 

[Hellion]

England bleeding runs at 4.5 RPO.

 

[mominsaigol]

I think England aged 2 spinners cause pak is genuinely garbage at spin. This is the same lineup that got bowled out on a road pitch by spin

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Carse has a pretty mediocre FC record

 

[Rana]

Now Urooj will keep blabbering me into a migraine

 

[imshally81]

I think England aged 2 spinners cause pak is genuinely garbage at spin. This is the same lineup that got bowled out on a road pitch by spin

This is the only chance for England

 

[Devadwal]

Saim should he ashamed by giving wicket to this attack on a batting pitch .

 

[Rana]

144 kmh

Bobsy getting scared now

 

[Mas-LFC]

Abdullah looks good technically. He needs to leave balls well around the 5 and 6th stump line especially early on. saw him get out many times against BD playing delivery should been left alone.

 

[Rana]

Love Shan’s confidence trying to chicken cut a ball angled towards the slips

 

[Devadwal]

Carse has a pretty mediocre FC record

He is not a test level bowler but england test bowling resources are very poor Post Jimmy and Broad.

 

[mominsaigol]

Root would have broken sachin's record of centuries twice had he given such filthy pitches for the rest of his life?

No wonder sides don't like pakistan

 

[Ahmed216]

The way Shan bats scoring big runs always seems a like a miracle for him.
Absolutely horrible technique outside off stump

 

[Rana]

Who is organising the sound/speaker and entertainment?

Test match with Sean Paul on the speakers in Pakistan

How does any of it make sense?

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

He is not a test level bowler but england test bowling resources are very poor Post Jimmy and Broad.

Kinda makes you question why they pushed Anderson into retirement. I mean this isn't exactly an embarrassment of riches.

 

[Devadwal]

Abdullah is batting beautifully .

 

[Hellion]

Stokes would've gone to an unconventional field by now to stop the runs and try and force false shots .

Pope still keeping 3 slips on this pitch.

 

[Rana]

Pakistanis generally are such hardcore wannabes

They wouldn’t play Sean Paul if it wasn’t an English speaking team touring them.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

DJ Butt

Probably a Babar Azam fan

Anderson bowling at 130 in Aussie Ashes would have been useless.
They want to prepare others

 

[followed]

I would have loved to see mir the female version of male cricketer hamza here on this pitch against Ben duckett and co.
I m gonna miss him. LOL

 

[mominsaigol]

Anderson bowling at 130 in Aussie Ashes would have been useless.

First time you've actually made sense. But England aren't playing full bowling strength atm. This bowling is rubbish but this bowling would tear pakistan a new one if the pitch was an actual test pitch

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Shan gone lbw

 

[Rana]

Captain bhangre da gone

Most likely out

 

[jnaveen1980]

Looks out. Full on the pads

 

[imshally81]

Plumb

 

[Devadwal]

Anderson is still better than any current English Pacers

 

[Rana]

Wow that’s so lucky

It looked like it pitched in line

 

[Cric_lover4487]

Don't see this English bowling attack picking up 20 wickets in any test match. It's either draw or Pak will win if they play with winning intent.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Captain Slow survives. Pitched outside

 

[jnaveen1980]

wow mighty close.

 

[Hellion]

Pitching outside leg. Stokes looking angry and ready to rant about DRS yet again.

 

[imshally81]

Lucky Shan....outside leg

Very lucky

 

[followed]

Lol this is the captain. Hahahah
What a loser.

 

[Devadwal]

Pitching outside leg

 

[Mas-LFC]

Just seen one of the umpire in this match is from BD there. Pak in good hands for sure. He won’t give any unsure calls out so umpire calls dont come into affect!

Whereas Darmesena is the dodgy umpire

 

[sindhiboy]

Carse looking the most threatening seamer.

 

[mominsaigol]

@Hitman Bro you don't need to do any subscription service.

You can watch on sports central YouTube channel. It's live, broadcast is good.

 

[Ahmed216]

Looks out. Full on the pads

Yes it looked very OUT

 

[mominsaigol]

Perfect test for Babar to score a 100 and regain form, it doesn't get any easier then this.

 

[m.shah]

Maqsood struggling

 

[imshally81]

Shan seems uncomfortable here

 

[RidiculousMan]

You can tell Masood hasn't played a 145KPH bowler in a while. Getting late on a few occasions.

That's what happens when all your bowlers are giving you 130s in nets.

 

[imshally81]

Outfield is really slow

 

[FearlessRoar]

Shan Masood is given out LBW but he reviews successfully - the ball pitched outside the line of the leg stump. Kumar Dharmasena's decision is overturned.

 

[jnaveen1980]

When the ball is pitched even just short of a length you get so much time to play your shots here. Real problem is slightly fuller delivery even without movement atleast for these batsmen who both miss the line completely.

 

[Rana]

Tom Bombadil is here

 

[mominsaigol]

You can tell Masood hasn't played a 145KPH bowler in a while. Getting late on a few occasions.

He played 145kph pacers throughout all of Bangladesh series? It been barely a month? Rana was bowling it at 150+?

 

[jnaveen1980]

Woakes lack pace to succeed here.

 

[Rana]

He played 145kph pacers throughout all of Bangladesh series? It been barely a month? Rana was bowling it at 150+?

Ridiculous bloke has to say things in a dramatic way

 

[FearlessRoar]

Abdullah Shafique times it perfectly, but the slow outfield keeps him from couple of potential boundaries

 

[Devadwal]

Abdullah Shafique is shutting his haters mouth .

 

[Human786]

Now waiting for cracks to open up....

with in 30 minutes of game starting

 

[Human786]

how is Test match fitness of 3 pacers selected by PAK ?

 

[mominsaigol]

Abdullah Shafique is shutting his haters mouth .

I think he's shutting his own mouth

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Anderson is still better than any current English Pacers

He had a good 1-2 years in him still. Seemed like a typical being Bazball for the sake of being Bazball type of decision.

 

[FearlessRoar]

Indian top order has the best average in Test cricket since 2023

Really? Didn't know that. Regardless, it just 49 INR which is even less than 50 cents.

 

[Hellion]

Even Pakistani fans must be fed up of that theme song that plays throughout PSL , Champions Cup and is playing even now.

 

[Devadwal]

All thanks to future ATG Jaiswal

 

[mominsaigol]

Really? Didn't know that. Regardless, it just 49 INR which is even less than 50 cents.

Any match played on pakistani home den is broadcasted live on sports central.

Any match abroad however is not for obvious reasons as the channel is only owned by pakistani media.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Form is temporary, class is permanent. Babar will be back with a big bang this series.

 

[mominsaigol]

Form is temporary, class is permanent. Babar will be back with a big bang this series.

It's a road pitch? He should easily score a 100 here

 

[Hellion]

Form is temporary, class is permanent. Babar will be back with a big bang this series.

Especially now that he has a Bangladeshi umpire to give all marginal decisions his way.

 

[Human786]

67/1 in 15 - 450+ loading

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Good start from Pakistan.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Will pakistan capitalize on this start?

 

[Muhammad Saad]

There is nothing in the pitch for pacers , let's see how the spinners operate ,Pak must score 400+ here atleast.
