South Africa 135/5 at Stumps on Day 2 after bowling out Pakistan for 185 and have a lead of 212 runs

This team doesn’t not have in them. Kick Azhar, Asad and safraz out and may be they can do better.

Babar and Shan are 2nd and 3rd highest scorers in the series, its shows how poorly other batsmen of Pak have performed to be in this position

Why would you kick out Sarfraz he has been doing his main job really well and been adequate with low end batting except for the shocker in first test. Need new captain though.

It’s Azhar and Asad, 70 tests veterans who have sold us down the river, utter failures...
 
Why Sarfraz does not put a man at deep point despite both batsmen smashing 4s there is beyond my understanding..
 
Now somebody will say this is also negative comment, “Pakistan really lack the pace” 🧐🧐🧐
 
I have enjoyed the series the troughly despite our poor batting , a breath of fresh air from the dullness of UAE.
 
300, what he is drinking ?? - I can bowl out Pakistan twice at that score 👹👹👹
 
You can pick any four bowlers from crowd, even they will bowl out Pakistan in less than 300

That's what cricket should be like and that crowds come in and watch and enjoy it on tv as well. Good pitches and hard fight for runs is all that test cricket is about.
 
Shadab needs to play a lot of 4 day cricket to develop into a proper bowler. Hasn't got much patience and the temperament to play test cricket at the moment.
 
Anything more than 250 and it's job done for south Africa. Below that, Pakistan have a realistic chance contrary to what everyone is thinking
 
I don't see Pakistan chasing anything above 150 on this wicket. Congratulations on a whitewash boys :salute
 
AMla is staying way outside the crease for Abbas. I think most batsmen will start doing that against Abbas. His strength is nipping the ball back in from a good length. If batsman outside he is forced to change his length.
 
Chalo jee, shukar hai.

Pakistan bowling has been sublime on this tour. The batsmen have single-handedly lost us another series.
 
Even the other worthless allrounder got wicket too in third over not 30th

Shadab has taken more wickets in half a Test than Yasir Shah took in two.

Outside Asia he’s a far better pick than Yasir Shah because his bowling suits the conditions better and he’s a far better batsman.
 
Yaar yeh Makhyaan ha hotieen, 3 wicktaan air ghir jayteen 🥶🥶🥶
 
Everytime the bowler has to pull out because of the insects he's gone for a boundary in the next 2 balls. Ruins their rhythm.

In absence of quality off spinner. Shadab is a must in team adding metal to tailenders batting as well, and very good fielder
 
Very very tense period for both teams. With lot o lateral movement you are never in on this surface.
 
Sarfraz captaincy and behaviour really shocking..... No homework watsoever... Messed up in so many times wen pak had saf on the ropes
 
Even though the scoreboard hasn’t shown Pakistan fight, they still have competed in every match.

The batsmen have crossed 200 on one occasion in five innings. Even Imran Khan wouldn't have been able to do much with this lot.
 
I'd give Amir a go as soon as possible against De Kock. He's the best bowler for him being a left hander plus De Kock's aggressive nature plays right into his hands.
 
2 more wickets before stumps would do well..

Get on Faheem and Amir :amir2 :faheem

He's 20 so has time on his hands to develop if he puts his mind to it especially of which he concentrates on playing 4 day cricket which he needs to do as T20 won't get him far.
 
Shadab has potential but needs to improve his control. Also, for a Leggi, his run-up is too straight - need to work with Mushi/Qadir and modify run-up to at least 30 degree angle, if not 45. He is turning the ball only from wrist & finger, not much from his shoulders & twist from waste.
