Sri Lanka vs Pakistan | 1st Test | Galle | June 17-21 | Day 3

[Slog]

Day will prolly decide whether we see a result

 

[Slog]

few mins left

 

[Justcrazy]

Matthews

 

[Slog]

started and Yasir spanked for a six

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Junaid lost the right to start the day.....Wahab&Yasir starting

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need early wickets here.

 

[Belawal2014]

Deano's a nice commie barring that Amla incident.

 

[Belawal2014]

gets a wicket!

 

[Zeshan547]

Wahab you beauty.

 

[m.shah]

Wahab beauty

 

[Enforcer]

wahab is easily the best asian fast bowler. The difference between wahab and other asian fast bowlers is huge.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need few more wickets here

 

[Justcrazy]

Review taken.

 

[Square Drive]

Wahab on :AAG

 

[Justcrazy]

Review wasted.

 

[Slog]

Wahab really deserves more wickets for this spell

 

[Justcrazy]

195 . 4

Match in balance at the moment.

 

[UpInTheAir]

Poor Junaid.

 

[Justcrazy]

200 up .

 

[Justcrazy]

Too many boundaries coming now

 

[zabalestmsm]

I want Hammad Azam more in Test team compared to other formats! On these flat tracks we must have 3 fast bowlers! 1 in the form of a fast bowling all rounder! 2 fast bowlers and 2 specialist spinners!

Hammad is not a fast bowler

 

[Justcrazy]

32 runs partnership already

 

[Thivagar]

Vithanage looks like Soumya Sarkar at the age of 25.

 

[Xoib]

why was Wahab removed when he was troubling Chandimal quite a bit should have bowled an over or two more.

 

[UpInTheAir]

That's how injuries happen. It's also really hot there.

 

[Xoib]

Junaid is reallly dire with the new cherry.

 

[Thivagar]

1.5hrs for this guy to score 15 runs .

 

[#GreenRoars]

Silva is near to his Century

 

[Thivagar]

Wicket for Zulfi

 

[Thivagar]

Silva is near to his Century

16 runs in the last 2 hours This guy takes tuk tuk to another level.

 

[#GreenRoars]

zulfi got chandimal

 

[Thivagar]

Vithnage looks fit, very unusual for a SL player. Usually we get players that look like they've been through a famine or they are 7 month pregnant with twins.

 

[Justcrazy]

228 / 5

 

[#GreenRoars]

16 runs in the last 2 hours This guy takes tuk tuk to another level.

he is the head master of tuk tuk school

 

[zabalestmsm]

That shud have been taken!

 

[Thivagar]

for Kaushal Silva.

 

[Asif321]

lot of sambhar ?

 

[#GreenRoars]

: well done Hafeez

 

[#GreenRoars]

Sri Lanka 273/6 (95.0 ov)
Lunch break

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

Good stuff from the Pakistani team. Need to bundle them out today. Pitch is dead and therefore batsmen need to capitalize on it.

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

Watching the highlights right now and when sanga's wicket falls ramiz says: " and younis khan has cupped it." LMAO. #Ramizgems

 

[#GreenRoars]

7th Gone. Yasir Took perera

 

[JibranAnsari]

Surprise surprise ..sarfraz takes a catch.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Should get them out under 350.

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Question: After Bundling SL out under 320 in 2nd Session @3rd Day, What should Pakistan Team do to achieve favourable result? Almost 2.5 days left.

 

[Square Drive]

Prasad

 

[adarsh_bang]

23 ball duck for Prasad. Pakistan Test team is a good unit. Well done King Misbah

 

[adarsh_bang]

Just tuning in, yasir bowled 25 overs for just 1 wicket??

 

[Adeel Naseem]

silva is happing taking singles and giving strike to tail what a abd he is

 

[walashi]

silva :

 

[Neferpitou]

Junaid is such a waste of space. Hopefully replaced by Adil next game.

 

[Red Devil]

That looked close, should've taken the review

 

[Neferpitou]

Wahab deserves a fifer for this effort. Karunaratne, Sanga, Mathews, would've got Silva as well, all the big time wickets. The whole Pakistan team has taken an oath they won't catch off his bowling.

 

[Shafi]

So Junaid is not good enough to take last wicket!!!!! Worst Pakistani fast bowler in the history

 

[Abhilash93]

Atleast Yasir got a couple of tailenders...Junaid seems to have lost his mojo

 

[jog_1]

300 all out.

 

[Neferpitou]

Pretty good bowling effort today.

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Will Pakistan score 500 in 1.5 days and let SL bat on last day?

 

[Mamoon]

Good performance. I always feel sorry for a fast bowler in Tests when his partner is shooting blanks.

Junaid will run Wahab into the ground at this rate.

 

[Square Drive]

Wahab showing it's not impossible to take wickets on these tracks, even as a fast bowler.

This Test series should be make-or-break for Junaid. He used to be excellent in SL, and if he can't take wickets here, then he's gotta be dropped.

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Pakistan is yet to win Test in Srilanka since 2006.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Hafeez the best nightwatchman in history doing well to survive.

 

[Square Drive]

There goes Hafeez!

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Why is Hafeez still opening in Tests?

 

[jog_1]

Lol Hafeez

 

[Square Drive]

Had we caught Silva...

 

[filthyfulltoss]

Blessed in all facets gone

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Hafeez poor form continues

 

[UpInTheAir]

Legend. I think he practices that shot.

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Exposing same weakness of Hafeez

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Hafeez poor form continues

not poor form bro... an inch amt of swing is enough to get this guy back in the pavilion...and the stubborn mgmt couldnt realise this for ages...

 

[Neferpitou]

So embarrassing to have Hafeez as opener.

 

[#GreenRoars]

just back from nimaz and shocked to see Hafeez once again failed.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Beautiful drive by Shehzad.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

What is the magic of Hafeez that keeps him in the team? Baffled.

Azher is in form. Must assert himself.

 

[UpInTheAir]

Pakistan crickets take on game of throne now at the crease.

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Will Hafeez 2 wickets come to rescue him again? Should not

 

[ask_analyse_act]

play hafeez in sharjah pitch or in any patta roads, he will score double hundreds.. this guy cant even play swing with white ball, unfortunately opening with the red ball,,

 

[Zeshan547]

Both liabilities gone, real batting starts now, yk and azhar, on a rescue mission once more.
