33 overs till new ball and SL get reviews.

Those 33 overs we need 100 runs.

Then only 100 to get with second new ball should be well.

Very optimistic. The famous pakistan collapse is around the corner we will not even reach the new ball. Seen it all before.
 
Still a long way to go. But its all up for grabs now as one famous commentator said.
 
I don't get this hue and cry. You have to use better edge detecting tech, just pictures is not going to cut it. sniko and edge detection by white mark they used in AUS/ENG should be used.

Why they don't use in UAE and SL, cost?

We have hotspot in the U.A.E but yeah cost is the reason for it not being there in each series.
 
We have given ourselves a chance though and thats the beauty of test cricket. It can go any way now.

Off course it can go anyway but if we had wasp it would be saying pakistan have about 17% chance of winning as it stands.

So these guys need to keep going
 
Pakistan has made 73 runs in 19 overs after tea with RR 3.65. That was missing in our 2nd innings in 2nd Test. Pakistan used to be famous for playing attacking cricket & that is happening today. Great to see old Pakistan here.
 
I think Sri Lanka will probably start out with the new ball tomorrow morning.

First session tomorrow will be interesting to watch
 
Whatever Shan does he looks plain better than everyone else while doing it.
 
I wonder who will reach their century first. Both players have been yoyo-ing ahead of each other in short bursts.
 
Shan Masood escaped Saddam's tanks in Kuwait - he ain't gonna be afraid of a 4th innings in Sri Lanka !

In all seriousness, this is turning out to be a good knock from Shan after a shaky start especially against the short ball. Had doubts about his selection like many others but is repaying selector's faith in him. Keep going lad.
 
200 to go to win... still a long hard graft needed here.
 
Hope Shan's confidence grows from this knock, because he can be a perfect replacement for Hafeez.

Whatever happens between now and then, that will be the real key. We are still going to need about 100 hundred when they get the new ball and even if we have 7 wickets left at the point, the new ball could change every thing. They will get it after about an hours play 2maw.

And we need to keep as many wickets as possible just for that
 
22 for YK.

12 for Shaan.

Come on boys. Make the ton. Get the nerves away. Then play again for the target.
 
Less than 200 require [emoji108][emoji108][emoji108]
Next target make it 200 today

Kaushal is a quality bowler regardless of what has happened. He will wreck the Indians later when they play.

I'm sure he still has a massive role to play today.
 
What the heck was that from YK?? [emoji35][emoji35][emoji35][emoji35]

Some pressure was on YK there.... top class batting... great batsman.... 30th ton looming :)
 
Now thats better. A lot better.

A lovely straight drive followed by a single.
 
what a punga being taken by YK.

Followed by a nice boundary and LOVELY running between the wickets.

Phew
 
Once the runs left goes under 100. Angelo will panic. It'll be easy then. Its these next 90 odd which are tough
 
Kaushal is a real threat.

PAK batsman looking so nervous.

Wicket round the corner
