Sucked into that guide shot. Thankfully didnt go hard at the ball and the ball drops just short of third slip
 
Azhar Ali is a good player of spin, let us pray he survies the fast bowlers and I am looking forward to see him against smith
 
lunch in half an hour. great achievement if we don't lose any more wickets till then
 
Pakistan hopefully can get to Lunch unscathed with these two guys at the crease!
 
Pakistan | 1/31 | 11 Overs | Trail by 222 runs

First boundary for Azhar Ali in Test cricket.

Butt dealing in 4s here - what about stirke rotation to keep Azhar off strike for as much as possible.
why would you wanna take the no.3 off the strike if is not good enough then he shouldn't be there. You can't treat no.3 batsman like tailender.
 
I Farhat squandered the opportunity to score on what appears to be a wicket full of runs. The conditions today are quite different from yesterday.
 
Com,n folks stop blaming Broad he had a word to aamir and thats it.Aamir needs to stay away from the batsman.

it is a valid point brother.
 
Speaking of spin pointing has said that he will be using smith, north and katich alot, since his bowlers are coming back from injuries. But now that wont be the case as the conditions are very seamer friendly :(
 
Hmmm, lacks good footwork but that is a given for most Pakistani batsmen, However it looks like Azhar Ali knows what ball to play and what no to.
 
Hmm 253 is an interesting score.

Pak off to a decent start.

By the way, for all the speed gun PPers, I note the gun here shows both Bollinger and HIlf notably faster than Aamer. Any dispute?

Congrats to Aamer on the 4 wicket haul, he reminds me a bit of Hilf when he started. You can tell he is a top bowler but didn't get the early rewards that others have gained.

Has only scored 18 runs so far. Nothing to get alarmed about but he looks quite assured.

..he got a wicket in his third oveR?
 
Azhar looks edgy at times but then plays some good shots. Hope he can stick in their.

Looks like Aussies are going to try some short stuff and chin music at him!
 
honestly butt looking to me a candidate for LBW... since begining... he is bring his left foot way too early

Bulldozer and Hilf getting the odd delivery above 140km/hr
 
Seen enough Azhar has a good technique may find himself at the top of the order by the end of the series.
 
Pakistan off to almost similar start as aussies
