Has any of our bowlers even hit 140 yet?![]()
Even Sri Lanka has better bowler than us.
Hopefully Yasir will also be benched for the next match

Spinners aren't needed on pitches like these. South Africa have dropped theirs, and it's not like Yasir Shah is some Shane Warne either.
All the people talking about pace seriously need to shut up. This is not a pacy wicket, even Philander was huffing and puffing to 124km/hr and screaming at 127km/hr. This is flat wicket, hardly anything for bowlers except for when the bend their back and bang the ball into the pitch which might get a take off. That requires a lot of hard work. Basically its not the bowlers we should be angry at, its our miserable batsmen.
Faheem should have played in place of Yasir and Rizwan in place of Asad since they don't have any other middle order batsmen in the squad.
We might have had a few more runs in the first innings and Faheem could have made a breakthrough or two.

I don't get this obsession with pace. McGrath rarely bowled above 140 and yet he is most likely the greatest bowler of all time.

Philander us a medium pacer.The other 3 quicks consistenly bowled above 140.
And not one person here has absolved the batsmen off any blame.that does not however mean that the bowlers do not need to put in any effort.they are almost 250 and not even half the team is back in the hut.The bowlers have their responsibilty too.
Thankfully this is our last Test series till Oct/Nov.
Masood has a bowling average of 16
Another candidate for allrounder role [MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION]![]()

Thank god, hopefully Sri Lanka gets smashed in Australia and we can retain the number 6 rank![]()
I was watching the match for pakistans bowling , even our bowling is super ordinary now. Dont know where to find respite , india winning as well.

So Pakistan have no tests scheduled for the next 10 months?
We have two Tests vs Sri Lanka in the UAE in October and two in Australia in November.

Australia have now reduced the number of tests??
How long before the new ball is taken? What would experts in this pp forum suggest for Pak to win the next session?

Yasir shah is a pointless selection. He is as harmless here as teletubbies. Mickey and co making it an issue of ego by not dropping him.
You are talking as if other bowlers have been doing great. His role is hold one end and help rotate seamers.Seamers have to pick up wickets.
I'm not watching any longer. What are the average speeds of the bowlers?
Yasir is not a spinner that can contain.
He needs to be a wicket-taker.
thats because our bowlers have no hope. if they had a score to bowl at, like 280, they would be much more charged up. The bowlers know they would just be wasting their energy now because its impossible for our pathetic batting lineup to reach 200.
You select two all rounders ie Faheem Ashraf and Shadab Khan but don't play them in South Africa?
Good decision. The pacers need rest.
Asad can bowl a few.
