Pakistan v Australia | 1st Test | 23/10/2014 | Dubai (DSC) l Day 2

[Amjid Javed]

12 minutes till tea now so nothing stupid needed here from our two batsmen.

 

[razabbas]

When sarfraz came on crease shafiq was on 48 and now shafiq is still on 48 and sarfraz at 23

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Whatta Shot!!!. This man is a Legend!!!

 

[Kianig89]

vs the ultimate battle

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

hahahahaha )

 

[akamaka]

Sarfraz is going to have aussie bowlers for lunch )

 

[Kianig89]

:boom :boom

 

[MRSN]

So much negativity for moin on PP he sacked almost every TTF malik , farhat , kami etc etc

also sacked Hafeez from T20 captaincy and brought back Afridi. Almost succeeded in sacking Misbah as an ODI captain replacing Afridi.

 

[Kianig89]

Sarfraz is going to have aussie bowlers for lunch

fixed

 

[Amjid Javed]

looks like apart from MJ no one is going to be shown any respect

 

[Justcrazy]

sarfaraz is playing too many shots

 

[MRSN]

12 minutes till tea now so nothing stupid needed here from our two batsmen.

tea before lunch?

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

good innings by shafiq, well paced

 

[MRSN]

well batted Shafiq.

 

[razabbas]

also sacked Hafeez from T20 captaincy and brought back Afridi. Almost succeeded in sacking Misbah as an ODI captain replacing Afridi.

Yup thats the worst thing he have done but still far better then ilyas

 

[JibranAnsari]

50 to shafiq.

Get a ton now.

 

[razabbas]

Fifty for shafiq

 

[ScotRaz]

Well done ASAD.

 

[MRSN]

5 runs away from a 100 runs-session..

 

[Justcrazy]

Fifty for Asad

He needs to graft here and look to make this count

 

[GreenKnightRises]

50 for Selfish man no.2. This innings is a waste if can't convert it into a ton and throw his wicket away as usual in 50's or 60's

 

[Amjid Javed]

50 for Asad well played

 

[aukhan]

good fifty.

 

[Kianig89]

:50

 

[Zaid23]

48,52*,55,55,103*,34,65,32...Last 8 international innings of Sarfraz..currently on 24* #PAKvAUS

 

[shaaik]

Should Sarfaraz stay here till tea we should be past 450 by that time ..

I expect a similar cameo like Sarfraz from Yasir Shah.

These two need to stay on now , lunch is round the corner

 

[Energetic]

lol empty stands

What is so special about Nathan Lyons? his record is nothing great.

 

[Justcrazy]

Can he bat??

Yes . So can Zulfiqar .

 

[MRSN]

edged but no second slip..

 

[Justcrazy]

Runs coming here

 

[dhump]

I dont think Yasir can bat.

 

[Kianig89]

324

 

[Convict]

Pakistan have won this match.

 

[dhump]

Hayee main mar jaaon RR 5.30 in last 10 overs itna to hum ODI main bhi nahi banatay.

 

[Kianig89]

:shah can hit spinners a long way not sure about his ability against pace

 

[MRSN]

What a knock that was from Kami..a knock that he will always be remembered for.

 

[Zeshan547]

50 for Selfish man no.2. This innings is a waste if can't convert it into a ton and throw his wicket away as usual in 50's or 60's

this man have gone mad. but i can assume why.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan have done well this session , runs on board does matter.

 

[MRSN]

last over from lunch. Should be careful.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Last over before lunch

 

[Justcrazy]

Probably last over before lunch

 

[razabbas]

same was said in 3rd odi when shafiq and maqsood was batting , same was said in first test against lanka

 

[Kianig89]

Imagine Sir :adnan batting here

 

[Madplayer]

Pakistan have won this match.

u r not an aussie if u say that on day 2 of a test match.

 

[Justcrazy]

Last ball coming up.

 

[Amjid Javed]

This session so far 27.5 overs - 108 runs and just 1 wicket

 

[Kianig89]

Khaane ka waqfa

 

[MRSN]

great session for Pakistan.

 

[Justcrazy]

328 / 5

Lunch

 

[Kianig89]

2 session hands down

 

[Justcrazy]

400 now well on here , that would put Aussies under pressure.

 

[Amjid Javed]

good session!

109/1 off 28 overs, we need another session like that and then should try and get Aussies into bat

 

[akamaka]

Sarfraz

 

[Yatoo]

Day 2, Round 4 : Pakistan take the round

Day 2, Round 5 : any predictions?

 

[MRSN]

I dont think Yasir can bat.

he can.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Sarfaraz got the same runs within 10 minutes which Misbah and Co got in an entire session

 

[Bullet Drive]

Top session.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Another 100 will be awesome.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Imperative these two stay in. Hoping Shafiq can score a ton alongside some quick scoring by Sarfaraz. Hope both can make hundreds.

We need to keep batting. We should aim to only bat once.

 

[Convict]

u r not an aussie if u say that on day 2 of a test match.

I am. I don't rate our batting lineup chasing high scores. Pakistan will score 400+. Australia will get 320 max.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

What a knock that was from Kami..a knock that he will always be remembered for.

Agree

 

[Yatoo]

I know it's still early days. But I think with hardwork, SirFaraz can be our Gilly. Open is ODI's, number 7 in tests.

 

[Random Aussie]

Well this isn't going very well

 

[Zeshan547]

I think if it come to that stage, than pak should look to bat once, no need to declare at all, and we all know it is better option because no risk of weather interruption, and a lot of time left in the match, and more overs we play more the pitch will deteriorate and it will help pak spinners even more. So ideally pak should keep on batting and get 500 plus, or if they don't get all out then perhaps can give aussies last half an hour to bat and attack them from all sides at full throttle with all men near the batsman. But overall pak has clear upper hand at lunch, and whinners should stop whining now.

 

[m.shah]

Good session for pak

 

[Bullet Drive]

Who will reach ton first ?

 

[Bullet Drive]

[MENTION=132373]Convict[/MENTION]

do u think this is enough for PAK alreadY/

 

[Couch Cricketer]

Yasir Shah and Zulfiqar both have multiple 50s to their name in first class so they can bat. Will they be able to face Johnson now thats a different story. But after the fall of the next wicket I think they should all try to go after the bowling instead of trying to stay on the wicket. Specially the bowlers as trying to face of Johnson could risk injury and could result with us losing a bowler to injury better to go after the bowling and try to get quick runs.

This isn't but from here you'll push 450.

 

[Shafi]

We need to get rid Hafeez & Shehzad at least. Bring Azhar opener with Taufeeq/any new comer. Bring Haris/Fawad in the middle.

 

[Sunny786]

Luckily for Pakistan, Ryan Harris isn't playing this series. I hope he recovers soon. That guy is a beast.

 

[shaaik]

Yes . So can Zulfiqar .

Sure Zulfiqar can however not sure about Yasir, hv nvr seen him batting ... Cricinfo reads that he can bat a bit but doesn't show his career stats...

No room in the middle order at the moment

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Pakistan have won this match.

no they havent ........ aus still needs to bat. remember we have a water tight mental block against aus.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Yasir can definitely bat but of course against AUS its different.

Imran Khan cannot bat. He should play at 11..

 

[Convict]

Do you think Shafiq has a good enough technique to open?

If you can bat at three you can open.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

and that where pakistan should go. depending on if asad can go on to make a century.
