Pakistan reach 64/3 in reply to South Africa's 615 at the end of Day 2 of the second Test, trailing by 551 runs

[Marooned]

Pak batters can't even survive one over.

Masood played that with arrogance of Lara

 

[sweep_shot]

PAK - 8/1.

 

[Marooned]

Saim would've been fun to watch on this wicket. Sad.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Effectively , -607/2

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

RSA was 70/3 or so at lunch.

The bowling after that just totally succumbed. Pak batters going in as they are already on top and playing shots.

The bowlers are tall, & also fast & the new ball must be respected.

Poor from Shan

 

[m.shah]

What will take to get rid of Masood?

Spot on.

 

[Human786]

pretty boy Naseem who was '' rested '' fielded as extra for long periods o time - how stupid is PCB !!! 8/1

 

[saimayubera]

Tbh pitch is still flat. Pak will still lose as pitch will turn in 4th innings but the batsmen should try getting 350-400.

Maybe Babar a SENA century.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

Pakistan will be struggling to avoid the follow on

 

[mominsaigol]

PAK - 8/1.

8 for 2, we don't have saim so sa only needs 9 wickets

 

[AAli98]

Looks like pak will cross 36

 

[angrypathan]

Nicely played

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Looks like pak will cross 36

This calls for a legendary cake celebration Restricted SA below 800 and likely to score above 36

 

[Marooned]

400 is actually really possible here but only if Pakistan batsmen don't swing at everything.

 

[Fazzy321]

No power at all in the shots. Kamran Ghulam.

 

[Bewal Express]

Come on Our KG. You have a big heart and aggression. Also get Babar to show the same passion

 

[Bewal Express]

No power at all in the shots. Kamran Ghulam.

Not a problem. The guy has heart and that is priceless

 

[Marooned]

They are falling into the trap of playing everything.

They forget that SA batsmen were far more selective vs the new ball. It eased after a session of pretty regular test match batting.

 

[FearlessRoar]

Haha he didn't even see it

 

[Bewal Express]

Technically Babar looks ok. I bet he will get out now

 

[AAli98]

Ghulams Not now shout like Steven Smith.. that’s where the similarities end.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Ghulam bowled by Jansen

 

[Human786]

18/2

 

[castortroy]

Another horrendous shot.

Absolutely comical test team

 

[Fazzy321]

Yeah this team will be out within 100 runs. Mentally shot.

 

[angrypathan]

Joke of a team

 

[Marooned]

Chopped onto stumps. Unlucky.

 

[castortroy]

18/2

18/3

 

[castortroy]

Game could be over by tomorrow

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Shouldn't have played at that or look to defend it at most with a straight bat

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Now I understand why the PCB isn't interested in playing many tests anymore in the coming years.

They have given up.

 

[Hellion]

Somebody was saying yesterday that Mir Hamza and Jansen have similar speeds

Jansen casually bowled 141 kph here . Mir Hamza fell over in his follow through while hitting his all time high speed gun number of 139 kph.

Not even a comparison.

 

[Rana]

Babar’s nooo is so fancy

 

[Omer2002]

How are all kamran gulam fans doing ...never ever international material but i suppose not one Pak player is

 

[jnaveen1980]

So Ramiz Raja got what he wanted. "punchy" Test

 

[mominsaigol]

Babar’s nooo is so fancy

NAAAEEEIIIIIIIII

 

[Champ_Pal]

Looking at the 615 score by SA feels weird.
In Aus a 200 score looks like a Herculean task and here a batsman by himself scored 250 runs.

 

[Marooned]

Ghulams Not now shout like Steven Smith.. that’s where the similarities end.

Babar's no scream sounds like a cheetah. That's also where the similarities end.

 

[AAli98]

If you’re going to drop players on sa aus tour performances there will be no pak players left. Having said that masood has to go.

SA & Aus please don’t invite pak for tests for the next 30 years.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Jansen is hitting 140k.. Very awkward bowler to face when he has his rhythm right

 

[MMHS]

Effectively 3 down for 18, facing 416 to save follow-on …. And I heard Shan saying PAK would have bowled first here had they won the toss!!!!

 

[castortroy]

How are all kamran gulam fans doing ...never ever international material but i suppose not one Pak player is

Another diminitive batter that will always struggle with extra bounce.

 

[mazkhan]

The pitch is flat

Mir hamza is bowling against proper batsmen

Jansen is bowling against mental midgets, parchi captain and technically flawed batsmen who can't play with a straight bat .

If mir hamza bowled against the pakistan lineup he would run through it .

 

[Nikhil_cric]

-596/3 not looking good for the cornered tigers .

 

[Marooned]

How are all kamran gulam fans doing ...never ever international material but i suppose not one Pak player is

He deserves his run. He has more than Earned it.

 

[FearlessRoar]

The South Africans are kind of in a hurry to bowl out Pakistan on Day 2

 

[Amjid Javed]

Inns defeat here. Entire Pakistan team won't make more then Rickleton did here

 

[dravidthewall]

Ohhho no kamran ghulam out

 

[The Scorer]

Good pace and bounce from South African bowlers, hard job for Pakistan batters who are already shattered

 

[Savak]

Poor Technique by Ghulam. Needs to work on it if he wants to be successful in challenging Sena conditions against world class pacers.

 

[imshally81]

Variable bounce

 

[Marooned]

Babar 12 fc hundreds. How poor

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Babar century loading...

 

[FearlessRoar]

In a parallel universe, Babar Azam scored 500 and won the game for Pakistan.

 

[Human786]

20/3

[Fazzy321]

No fight at all. Just slogging and hoping for the best

 

[Marooned]

Saud gone too. Mentally in airport already pak batsmen

 

[batandballbattle]

jab ham bowling k liye aate hain tou batting pitch ho jaata hain
jab ham batting k liye aate hain tou bowling pitch ho jaata hain

 

[angrypathan]

Yeah I’m off. Disgusting lack of application from this mentally shot team

 

[Savak]

Extra pace, bounce, quality by South African pacers. Making all the difference.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

-595/4. This looks like a brutal GOAT level thrashing loading

 

[jnaveen1980]

wow Rizbabar lol

 

[RehanG]

Can we declare both innings?

 

[followed]

Lol seriously Pakistan should stop playing test cricket.

Test cricket is not their cup of tea.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

The only myth remaining is Pakistan is a great ODI team under Rizwans tutelage because they won bilaterals in Aus and SA.

Wo bi bust hojaye gi.

Bas Champions Trophy anay du.

 

[Fazzy321]

Bobzy 300 and Kaptaana 100 still on thoughh

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Even if South Africa bowl PAK out cheaply , they should still bat again for 60-70 overs imo.

 

[mominsaigol]

Can we declare both innings?

I think Pakistan shpuld declare the test format

 

[Bewal Express]

Terrible shot by Saud. Brainless

 

[followed]

Pakistan is worst test team in the world right now
Not a single good test player in pakistan

 

[saimayubera]

yeah lol.

 

[Marooned]

Extra pace, bounce, quality by South African pacers. Making all the difference.

They are much better bowlers but come on.

They didn't have to do much here. The batsmen are just flashing at everything. It's easy pickings.

 

[dravidthewall]

Asian bradman saud out

 

[Shaheenthefalcon]

Even if South Africa bowl PAK out cheaply , they should still bat again for 60-70 overs imo.

Enjoying our demise arent you. So u want us to chase 1000 in 4th innings?

 

[Bewal Express]

Why hasnt Agha come in. Why is he hiding. Time to step up

 

[followed]

Extra pace and extra bounce and Pakistan is falling like deck of cards.

 

[FearlessRoar]

Panic driven batting from Pakistan

 

[Nikhil_cric]

The international calendar is absolutely choked.

Just free up the calendar by cancelling useless tours like PAK tours of Southern Hemisphere.

WI/Ireland/BD/AFG/ZIM should freed completely from Test cricket also.
