The Pakistan cricket team seem to have taken test cricket back to the 1920s when 1 run per over was the done thing.

If they are test cricketers they should be able to, by definition, take singles without taking risks.
 
This is a very good pitch for batting. Why and what they r playing? look the batting of younis and azhar. How they leave and block half volleys after half volleys. This is too much. Strike rate of 50,55 is normal but not 30,35.

We already couldnt won last match because of thee 2 and asad Shafiq
 
Scott gets poetic: "There once was a game of cricket, Played on a boring wicket, Sri Lanka bowled out, In a dreadful rout, And now Pakistan's playing slow cricket."

:yk :yk
 
Yk Has looked out off form all inns!

Needs to ride his luck and get a big 100 here as does AA!

Pakistan need 2 batsmen atleast to get big 100s and should be looking to bat a while and get a team total off 450 here!
 
Last 10 ovs 16/0 RR 1.60
not too bad... as pitch behavior is strange and bowl get some swing (reverse swing also)

Sri lankas getting the ball to move around here so both batsmen need to keep batting solidly and no stupid risky shots!

Looks like you are asking too much from Pakistan. :misbah
 
good strike rotation here with singles been picked up! means bowlers cant settle!
 
tony greig i noticed corrected his pronunciation of misbah recently

and now doing it with khan

good man you are griegy
 
Nice solid days batting needed for the rest off the day and then look to build a massive lead tomorrow!
 
According to Greig, Azhar Ali is an aggressive batsman. The old man is losing his faculties.
 
Major Hammad: "Fawad Alam deserves more continuous chances in Test cricket at No.4 or No.5, Highest pak domestic first class avg 57+. Even Fawad scored 168 on debut but are 3 tests enough chances? Even Yesterday too Fawad made 157* not out in domestic match."

AA needs to keep solid here as Lakmal is bowling alot of yorkers!
 
35 runs from the last 10 overs.

This is more like it. Good stuff.
 
AA and YK pretty much neck and neck interms of scoring!
 
Much better tempo and intent in this inns compared to last test match!
