Pakistan vs Sri Lanka | 2nd Test | Dubai | Oct 6-10, 2017 | Day 4

Success to win test matches:
1. Need a proper opening pair.
2. No Akmal brothers
3. No timid players
4. Select proper bowling combination
 
Shan leaving hit me balls outside off. :facepalm: It just shows he has no confidence in his batting.
 
Should bring Azhar in next followed by Harris then Sarfraz.

Pakistan need to play aggressive and take on hearth and get him off his line in length. Should've be a tough chase but Pakistan got close to chasing 400+ in Australia with the help of Shafiq.

Hopefully he can replicate that performance today.

That was a dead rubber wicket at the Gabba where we somehow scored 450, don't expect those kind of things everyday. Although I believe we will win this.
 
Only positive intent will get pakistan close to this total here, if we bat defensively and negatively then we will lose this is meek and shameful fashion.
 
Too big a task if Azhar,Asad and Sarfraz dont fill the big boots of Younis and Misbah who used to make these things happen.

Yeah but that should install some confidence in our team and it was against a much better attack. Hopefully we can win this. Pakistan need to play positive and make some changing in the batting order.
 
Haris Sohail is the first to ever take 3 wickets bowling just a single over in a Test innings!
 
Docile pitch. SL getting bowled out here for 96 was just dumb batting.

I agree, the second inning batting was just plain idiotc from Sri Lanka, could have sealed an easy 2-0 but now they will have to fight hard otherwise there is a risk of spoiling everything with 1-1 series result
 
Bloody hell. Umpire gets you out of jail by calling a no-ball on a legitimate delivery and you go and do that?
 
Sami is such a rubbish player!!!! Too timid and annoying to see him bat
 
I doubt Sami plays Pakistans next test. I think they'll drop both Shaan and Sami and bring in Shehzad with Azhar Ali as the other opener
 
The night watchmen are batting and nazreen one of the night watchmen is out. Second to follow suit. LOL these cartoon networks need to be dropped. Only Pakistan will open with 2 night watchmen.

Very minnowesque performance from them. Got too complacent and now paying the price.
 
I hope we never get to see Masood or Aslam ever in Pakistan colors. Mentally weak batsmen. Not deserving of donning the national jersey.
 
Pressure pressure pressure.
Looks like a wicket will fall every delivery lol
 
Pakistan's chances of winning the game fell from 40% to 30% with Sami being out according to the bookies.
 
How on earth Sami select in the national team? A sad reality of nepotism
 
No point in Azhar being at #3 if he has to come in within 10 overs every innings.
 
He has been leaving so well outside off, but once the bowler comes around the wicket he totally forgot his off and kept poking at them, did it in first innings as well.
 
Apart from Haris and Sarfraz, there's not a single batter in our lineup who's capable of playing aggressively and counter-punching. And Sarfraz can't score more than 20. It's a dire batting lineup. Haris better come in next.
 
Is sami aslam the one who's in the team due to nepotism or is it shan masood? I always get confused between the two, both are pathetic players though.
 
Shehzad is miles better than these two mental midget openers
 
Rambo thinks, Shan was looking for runs in 1st innings!!!!!
 
When it comes to excessively appealing none can beat SL. It is in their culture. Batsmen may tend to become overambitious to quieten them down.
 
5 overs 5 runs. Allowing them to bowl where they want to. We have never learned from our mistakes so it's futile expecting them to learn from their mistakes in this series.
 
Man they need to get rid of this getting your review back with umpires call.
Absolute clueless reviews which prolong the game.
