Sri Lanka v Pakistan | 3rd Test | Pakistan won by 7 wickets

[Pakcricket89]

Sharp swing for LAkmal

 

[Fineline]

I wish we had Wahab in the tail but....

 

[Bullet Drive]

New ball imminent.

Easy for 265-3 to become 280-6. A lot of work left for Younis, Misbah, Shafiq and Sarfraz because this tail is incapable of wagging.

Agreed.

Especially under pressure.

 

[aloo paratha]

Great delivery from Lakmal(Not this guy )

 

[Square Drive]

Younis needs another 69 runs to surpass Javed Miandad's amount of runs in Test cricket.

 

[saeed-sohail]

Shan being an opener was needed for the new ball.

 

[Pakcricket89]

New ball imminent.

Easy for 265-3 to become 280-6. A lot of work left for Younis, Misbah, Shafiq and Sarfraz because this tail is incapable of wagging.

Biggest point in the test, IK jr. like spell can change match

 

[cricfan14]

Are any of Rahat, IK, Yasir, or Ehsan capable of scoring anything? Really mayyyyybe only Yasir right?

 

[Square Drive]

I sense a biggie.

 

[Bullet Drive]

YESSSS!!!!

Misbah

positive

 

[angrypathan]

 

[Fineline]

Great shot by Misbah.

 

[m.shah]

112 required

 

[walashi]

good on attacking kaushal

 

[Pakcricket89]

Almos hit a full toss straight in the air

 

[UpInTheAir]

Kaman bouys.

 

[Square Drive]

Yes,

 

[ViciousMachine]

444444444 to Misbah !!! Nice shot

 

[aloo paratha]

Misbah with a pull.It's

 

[Fineline]

This Misbah this.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good batting Misbah. Single now...

This is why he is so frustrating, when he bats positively he's awesome.

 

[cricfan14]

Cousin says to me "Test cricket is boring." Almost threw a book at him. How can anyone think that?!

 

[Square Drive]

King doing a great job to take Kawwa out of the attack!

 

[Pakcricket89]

Are any of Rahat, IK, Yasir, or Ehsan capable of scoring anything? Really mayyyyybe only Yasir right?

They can together contribute 20 runs hardly

 

[Arsal_AK]

If Sarfraz comes in after 10-15 overs of the new ball with around 70 odd to get. I would really fancy our chances.

Just keep him away from the new ball.

 

[angrypathan]

Kaushal creating a few problems

 

[aloo paratha]

OH GOD! I thought that was bowled!

 

[angrypathan]

wow, BOOM HEADSHOT!

 

[Fineline]

Useless appeal!Trying to put pressure on Misbah!

 

[aloo paratha]

Damn, It hit Chandimal on the helmet.

 

[Arsal_AK]

I sense a biggie.

Nicely done SD.

 

[akamaka]

Pakistan looking confident

 

[angrypathan]

Rambo needs to control himself

 

[Square Drive]

LOL Rambo! ) ) )

 

[naveed4687]

Rambo looks so animated and nervous

 

[m.shah]

Kaushal is getting big turn..

 

[Fineline]

They can together contribute 20 runs hardly

Ehsan can make a few.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good lad Misbah. At least he looking positive.

2 overs before new ball, v tricky time then. YK not the best against that second new ball.

106 runs to win. Decentish first hour tbh.

Keep chipping away. Set small targets. I am sure Misbah will chase it today as he looks in positive frame of mind, something I've hoped for from him in every situation. But oh well. I hope these two can finish it off.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Rameez. ) )

 

[Pakcricket89]

2 More overs for new ball, New ball makes wkts fall in heaps

 

[cricfan14]

There is so much movement off the pitch... scared of the new ball. These two have to dig deep with all the experience they have to see off the first few overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

This two need to get till lunch at least.

 

[Bullet Drive]

YK could finish today with a 54 average. Wow.

Anyone think he will beat Javed today?

 

[Square Drive]

Pretty good first hour, TBH. I was afraid we might lose 2-3 wickets in this first hour.

Now need these two to make another 40-50 together at least.

 

[cricfan14]

I am so STRESSED waiting for new ball don't tell me test cricket is boring.

 

[ahanank]

As long as Misbah is there, it's all good.
YK is doing a fine job, too.

 

[Bullet Drive]

106 more to win

7 more wickets to win.

Lunch in one hour.

Rain threat looming in second session.

 

[aloo paratha]

Yes this series is perfectly timed to not interfere with laylatul qadr nights!

And the first ODI is a day before the 27th.

 

[Square Drive]

YK could finish today with a 54 average. Wow.

Anyone think he will beat Javed today?

Nah, think he'll fall about 30 short. Hope not, though.

Yes this series is perfectly timed to not interfere with laylatul qadr nights!

Yup!

 

[Man Of Steel]

Haven't heard Chandimal say "Annahari" this morning

 

[Junaids]

Only two more recognised batsmen to come........

My money is on Sri Lanka in this position.....

 

[m.shah]

41 runs in the first hour with the loss of one wicket.. Satisfied??

 

[Square Drive]

And my parents forced me to sleep after Sehri.I meanwhile,just pretended and didn't even close my eyes for a second.

LOL that is soo me!

Love my tablet in such situations!

 

[Square Drive]

All 4 results still possibe...

 

[Bullet Drive]

Extra half hour can be taken if we are close to victory.

So possibly another 90 minutes.

We took 60 minutes to score 40.

 

[yasir]

As soon as SL dry up the runs (by bowling yard outside off) pressure back on Pakistan. Kaushal is wavered otherwise lot harder for us. He is almost like leg spinner, hard to maintain control with that grip and the way he try to put revs on the ball.

Pakistan has to earn this win, it's not going to be easy, pot of hard work ahead. Next up is New ball challenge [emoji27][emoji27]

[Bullet Drive]

[Justcrazy]

[Bullet Drive]

Matthews is too defensive.

 

[angrypathan]

Good running

 

[cricfan14]

I'm so nervous

 

[aloo paratha]

Even though it's almost the new ball we can't be shut down. We need to rotate the strike!

 

[Bullet Drive]

101 to win.

New ball will be taken.

2 reviews to Sri Lanka.

7 wickets left.

GAME ON

 

[ViciousMachine]

Only 101 more to get....

 

[Pakcricket89]

[honeybadger]

Kaushal wont be this threatening once the new ball is taken imo.

 

[Bullet Drive]

It will rain in session 2 and 3.

101 runs.

 

[walashi]

New ball is taken

 

[m.shah]

[Bullet Drive]

Kaushal wont be this threatening once the new ball is taken imo.

He will be even more with bounce.

 

[Man Of Steel]

New Ball finally available

 

[LegbreakGoogly]

Younis is very important here. If he stays till end then no one can stop Pak to win from here. . .

 

[Square Drive]

New ball...

Here we go!

 

[Square Drive]

Prasad holds the key here. If he is wayward, we win.
