Pakistan v West Indies | 3rd Test | Sharjah | Oct 30-Nov 3, 2016 | Day 4

[Aviator]

One more wicket here

 

[Nasty Naz]

Wow another wicket. Now it's really a match.

 

[pakistan cricket fan]

yesss

 

[MMHS]

WI has lost 15 wickets from one end !!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Adijazz1706]

5 down and hopefully out, can't relax now. WI will probably hit a few now.

 

[Slog]

what a turnaround 50-50 now

kraigwithe still there!

 

[Buffet]

what a turnaround 50-50 now

kraigwithe still there!

It's 80-20 in Pakistan's favor.

 

[Hamza_]

Need to wrap it up ASAP.

 

[Hamza_]

Cant sit back and relax

 

[Aviator]

Need two quick wickets if we are to win this...

 

[Slog]

Really impressed by Braitwhitte, Bravo, Holder and Gabriel this tour

 

[Slog]

It's 80-20 in Pakistan's favor.

Holder, Bishoo and Braitwhaite dont give wickets easily

 

[90MPH]

60/40 in WI favour still.

If we get Braithwaite then it will tilt in Pak's favour.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

150 is too much for a team who are not used to winning, great fight back from PAK bowlers though.

 

[pakistan cricket fan]

It's 80-20 in Pakistan's favor.

you think pakistan is favorite?

 

[street cricketer]

Match is Pakistan's to lose unless Braithwaite plays the innings of his life.

 

[uberkoen]

The wicket isn't square turning , all we can hope is some stupid shots from west indies. If they play sensibly they should win comfortably.

What were you saying bro?

 

[jeetu]

Pakistan's match to lose now.

 

[uberkoen]

Funny how all the Indians are coming out and trying to jinx Pakistan now.

You do realize they only need another 80 runs? A small partnership could change the game entirely. Still pretty much tilted in the favour of WI unless we get Brathwaite quickly

 

[Aviator]

Wicket coming...

 

[uberkoen]

Wicket coming...

Hope its BoBo

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Funny how all the Indians are coming out and trying to jinx Pakistan now.

Do you seriously believe in these things? PAK are favs now, they need only 5 wickets. At max WI will get 120.

 

[pakistan cricket fan]

need 2 wickets then we are in to the tail

That's a difficult ask for this Windies lineup. They are a garbage test side. With a bit of turn/reverse, they'll fold quite easily and yasir/Wahab can skittle them out quickly.

 

[endymion248]

WI has lost 15 wickets from one end !!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope Pakistan wins the match and Brathwaite is still not out. Surely would be a record.

 

[uberkoen]

I don't believe in this stuff but I find it funny that people are trying.

Realistically speaking the game isn't in Pakistan's favour. 80 runs aren't really that much and they have all the time in the world to get them Bobo and Dowrich can easily take the Windies home and they still have Holding to come.

If anything I'd say it's 70-30 in favour of the Windies.

 

[uberkoen]

That's a difficult ask for this Windies lineup. They are a garbage test side. With a bit of turn/reverse, they'll fold quite easily and yasir/Wahab can skittle them out quickly.

but it doesn't take much effort to get 80 runs. One batsman playing a half decent innings could easily win it for them.

 

[uberkoen]

Wahab bowling with sheer pace.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

So many twists and turns.

Honestly with 70 more to go and just 5 wickets, Pak on top.

Psychological aspect of chasing playing up.

And great striking up Yasir and Wahab.

 

[uberkoen]

West Indies has never lost a test match where they've had to chase less than 200.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

WI are not garbage. This is a good side.

Inexperienced maybe.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

How is the light? How many more overs can be bowled max today?

 

[Last Monetarist]

Seems to me we are 50-60 short, incidentally the exact lead that we conceded on first innings. WI are 70-30 favourites as long as Braithwaite is in. Dowrich and Holder are more than capable of scrambling 40 runs between them. It's been an abysmal performance from our batsmen. Would be our most humiliating defeat since we lost to Zimbabwe in 2013.

 

[Yatoo]

Pakistan will still lose.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

WI are not garbage. This is a good side.

Inexperienced maybe.

Relative to other top 8 teams.

 

[uberkoen]

How is the light? How many more overs can be bowled max today?

Will get another 40-50 minutes of play I reckon.

 

[MMHS]

Wrong tactics - PAK is giving easy singles in a hope that Dorwich will get out. It might back fire as the target is just 75 now.

 

[uberkoen]

Both batsmen looking pretty decent out there.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Ok so can someone tell me how did WI bat and Pak bowl?

Suicidal batting or great bowling or even stevens?

 

[uberkoen]

Need another wicket now and quick! They should be 7 down before target goes down to 50!

 

[Aviator]

Worrying signs.... WI winning this one.

 

[srh]

Misbah should be attacking with both spinners Yasir and Zulfi baba together.

 

[uberkoen]

Misbah should be attacking with both spinners Yasir and Zulfi baba together.

Are you watching Wahab bowl?

 

[uberkoen]

Amir is back. Get ready for more dropped catches perhaps.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

is back. Crucial spell for both him and skinny Dowrich

 

[street cricketer]

Would be great to see Riaz and Gabriel bowling in partnership.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Run flow has been blocked.

In such situations, when you do that, pressure gets to batsmen.

WI have to get a move on if they want to win.

Runs is what will put pressure on fielding team and make things easier. But its a catch 22 situation really. If you try to up the rate and get out, you are dead.

Anyways, better to focus on positive batting by leaving out the bad balls.

 

[Bilal7]

Great stuff from the bowlers, Riaz in particular.

 

[Varun]

Come on West Indies!

 

[uberkoen]

Well, there goes our last review.

 

[uberkoen]

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Wow!

That would have taken some guts to execute ..... off Yasir

 

[GLORY OF '92]

250 was needed.

 

[Bilal7]

Pakistan need Yasir to get another wicket in his next over. He's the one who's going to win this for them.

 

[Protea Fan]

Brathwaite is playing the test match of his life

Loving that.....would love to see him finishing this in style

 

[Rinnegan Sasuke]

Pakistan need Yasir to get another wicket in his next over. He's the one who's going to win this for them.

Yasir might be under pressure after that 6.

 

[Bilal7]

Yasir might be under pressure after that 6.

Exactly. A wicket will get his confidence back up.

 

[Bilal7]

DO NOT ask or post any illegal streaming links in this thread.

 

[uberkoen]

Nawaz in. What's the point?

 

[Rinnegan Sasuke]

Exactly. A wicket will get his confidence back up.

We need a combined effort from all the bowlers now to win this. Every end should have peaches being bowled.

 

[Aviator]

Better bowl azhar than nawaz...

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Dowrich gets another

 

[uberkoen]

We need a combined effort from all the bowlers now to win this. Every end should have peaches being bowled.

This isn't fruit ninja bro. It's cricket.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan short by 30 runs here

 

[Rinnegan Sasuke]

50 runs - 5 wickets. Let's see who gets there first.

 

[uberkoen]

50 to go. Should be easy for Windies from here.

 

[Slog]

the match is gone now :-O

:-(

 

[Justcrazy]

55 runs to play with. A tie is possible here also.

 

[uberkoen]

the match is gone now :-O

:-(

Chill kar yaar. You can't win 'em all.

 

[osee_bhai]

50 runs, seems much more reasonable for WI now.

 

[uberkoen]

55 runs to play with. A tie is possible here also.

How is a tie possible with an entire day remaining?

 

[Justcrazy]

One more wicket with in 10 runs required to keep hopes alive.

 

[Timewaster]

Amir looks so average sadly. He needs to find a way to get outsife edges against right handers

 

[Justcrazy]

How is a tie possible with an entire day remaining?

If WI are all out.

 

[uberkoen]

Amir looks so average sadly. He needs to find a way to get outsife edges against right handers

You do realize two catches have been dropped off of his bowling already in this innings?

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Desi fans throw in the towel way too easily.

WI are hardly out of danger.

4th innings chase is peculiar. There is no reason WI should have been 103/5 in this pitch but it was. That's what 4th innngs does to you.

50 runs with 5 wickets will be close.

Next 6 overs will be crucial.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Dowrich gets another :4

 

[uberkoen]

If WI are all out.

If WI are all out, Pakistan win.

 

[Justcrazy]

Amir looks so average sadly. He needs to find a way to get outsife edges against right handers

Amir is not a match winnrr anymore, he is just another bowler.

 

[Aviator]

Easy now for WI.. Bishoo alone can do it now...
