[VIDEO] New Zealand win 1st Test by 101 runs despite heroics by Fawad Alam (102) and M. Rizwan (60)

[hur rizvi]

Zafar Gohar as replacement?

 

[Tubs]

Oh no, Shaheen not looking good

 

[Slog]

What the hell does Neil Wagner run on? I think he has bowled something like 12 overs on the trot...with a broken foot.

Lol yea. Totally forgot that

 

[wrongun]

2 clouds can block out a lot of light, if it's positioned at certain angles.

Yes. We see play stopped all over the world for 2 white fluffy clouds on a regular basis...

 

[angrypathan]

Sohail Khan could be the closest like for like replacement I guess

 

[Rayyman]

Zafar went to pad up

 

[Firebat]

Take your time Shaheen

 

[Yk313]

Hopefully in the next test SSA can set Wagner’s jaw straight. And also give him a fist bump.

 

[Rana]

Please no Sohail Khan

 

[Tubs]

Thankfully SSA looks OK. But don’t they normally change the helmet?

I think it's not necessary unless there's physical damage.

 

[Buffet]

What’s the rule here? Is this eating time or does this mean they will still bowl all of their remaining overs?

Full 15 overs.

 

[uberkoen]

Yes. We see play stopped all over the world for 2 white fluffy clouds on a regular basis...

It happened once in Lahore

But that was because we took a break to enjoy the nice weather and run around the galli a bit

 

[Rayyman]

Please no Sohail Khan

Sohail is not gonna survive

 

[wrongun]

Shaheen is doing ok. Shouldn't be replaced unless he's really shaken up.

 

[hur rizvi]

Really if shaheen is feeling dizzy he needs to go back

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

why is he carrying on. Bring Sohail Khan he is better

 

[sharmaji]

Pak can survive this. Gotta have faith.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Tine wasting tactics by Pakistan

 

[Space Cat]

Hopefully in the next test SSA can set Wagner’s jaw straight. And also give him a fist bump.

Already broke his foot. Wagner probably won't play next test.

 

[Rayyman]

why is he carrying on. Bring Sohail Khan he is better

Not at defending. He can only slog.

 

[Slog]

Tine wasting tactics by Pakistan

Lol that literally does not help us at all tho. No matter how much time is wasted a minimum number of overs WILL be bowled

 

[Yk313]

There is a minimum amount of overs that has to be bowled. 14 left I think.

Not sure. If this swap takes a while and then light fades (lights are on already).

 

[mazkhan]

Health and safety comes first a head injury concussion is no joke

 

[wrongun]

It happened once in Lahore

But that was because we took a break to enjoy the nice weather and run around the galli a bit

England would break out the sun chairs & declare a heatwave.

 

[Space Cat]

I think if he does sub off then he won't be able to play in the next test match right? Not sure of the rules.

 

[Slog]

Lol that literally does not help us at all tho. No matter how much time is wasted a minimum number of overs WILL be bowled

Unless there’s rain

 

[jnaveen1980]

Did they take a concussion test?

 

[Yk313]

Health and safety comes first a head injury concussion is no joke

These NZD commies are as insecure as they get.

 

[Yk313]

Unless there’s rain

I thought bad light could also be an issue...

 

[Rayyman]

Shaheen is gonna learn from this Test match. Good experience for the youngster.

 

[hur rizvi]

Shaheen still shaking his head. Go back please

 

[shaaik]

Shaheen is gonna learn from this Test match. Good experience for the youngster.

He doesn’t seem to be alright ...

 

[Space Cat]

Guys we played til 7:30pm on day 3 and its not yet 6pm. Bad light will not happening.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

13 overs remaining

 

[Energy]

Even if these two bat 10 more overs we'll still lose the match as the last two wickets will fall in quick succession. The pressure will be immense in the last 4-5 overs.

Unfortunately our weak mentality and position, has led me to believe we'll be on the losing end more often.

 

[Slog]

I think if he does sub off then he won't be able to play in the next test match right? Not sure of the rules.

I think it just needs to be like for like

 

[Tubs]

I think if he does sub off then he won't be able to play in the next test match right? Not sure of the rules.

There's a concussion test procedure. Smith failed one recently and had to miss 2 Tests I think.

 

[angrypathan]

Santner on. Interesting

 

[waleed88]

Can sarfaraz come in as a concussion sub? Or does it have to be a bowler?

 

[Rayyman]

Well we’re screwed

 

[Space Cat]

Santner on. Pakistan could win again with his long hops.

 

[hur rizvi]

Can sarfaraz come in as a concussion sub? Or does it have to be a bowler?

Like for like replacement. Pakistan's best bet would be Zafar

 

[D/DAhmed]

I don’t know why people are talking about Sohail Khan and Zafar Gohar as like-for-like substitutions for Shaheen. If I was Kane Williamson, I’d request for either Shan or Abid to come back out there.

 

[Slog]

I thought bad light could also be an issue...

No they will turn on floodlights to fulfill minimum over. Only rain can stop that. And this is probably one of the few occasions in my life that there is more chance of it raining in Karachi right now than a city in New Zealand

 

[angrypathan]

Can sarfaraz come in as a concussion sub? Or does it have to be a bowler?

Like for like replacement. Has to be a bowler

 

[hur rizvi]

Santner on. Pakistan could win again with his long hops.

There is spin. It's always dangerous against tailenders

 

[waleed88]

There's a concussion test procedure. Smith failed one recently and had to miss 2 Tests I think.

Medical management for a concussion is you have to monitor that person for 24 hours and then gradually introduce training afterwards back to regular regimen. Imaging is performed and if negative, players can be restarted on regular training again.

 

[Slog]

Well we’re screwed

That happened when Fawad got out

 

[ataullah]

How long left???

 

[JibranAnsari]

fawad alam played a great knock but got out on a nothing delivery.

 

[Yk313]

Not looking forward to Santner coming on

 

[Rana]

I thought that was outside the line?

 

[shaaik]

I thought that was outside the line?

Umpires call

 

[waleed88]

Pakistan will lose with around 6 overs to spare

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

Looks out.

 

[Rana]

What a terrible decision

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

That's all folks!

 

[IMMY69]

That looked outside off stump

 

[Rayyman]

That happened when Fawad got out

You mean Azhar lol

 

[Slog]

fawad alam played a great knock but got out on a nothing delivery.

Reminds me of Shafiq heroic failures...

How many times do we mess up a match in the first 3-4 days and in the last innings chasing an impossible target lose 3/4 quick wickets early on and then have a heroic rearguard till last session of the day where we lost wickets in a bunch.

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

It will the off stump

 

[Rana]

That didn’t look out at all!

 

[IMMY69]

I thought that was outside the line?

My thought too

 

[angrypathan]

That wasn't a great decision but what can you do

 

[Thunderbolt14]

How many overs left in the day?

 

[hur rizvi]

fawad alam played a great knock but got out on a nothing delivery.

Yup I wont blame him much though

 

[Energy]

Tuk Tuk Tuk Tuk out. Tuk Tuk out. Tuk out.

 

[Space Cat]

Out. Wasn't too far from being outside the line

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

What a terrible decision

That was as plumb as it can be. May be your eyes are turning green with

 

[Rayyman]

How many overs left in the day?

Thunder bhai please bless great NZ with a storm

 

[hur rizvi]

How many overs left in the day?

12.2

 

[Savak]

Criminal to lose 6 wickets in the final session of a test match. Tells you how mentally weak and fragile the side really is

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

How many overs left in the day?

1 wicket left.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Tsk tsk. Its umpire's call. That can go either way.

 

[Slog]

Criminal to lose 6 wickets in the final session of a test match. Tells you how mentally weak and fragile the side really is

Reminds me of like 5-6 other occasions in last 5 years

 

[Yk313]

That was as plumb as it can be. May be your eyes are turning green with

Looked plumb in real time, but impact turned out to be umpire’s call. Still, would be given out 9/10 I would say.

 

[IMMY69]

Out. Wasn't too far from being outside the line

Come on mate.
That was not out...clearly hit outside off stump.

I thight kiwis were good sportsmen but they way you played after tea, with the Beamer etc, has been far from sporting

 

[Rayyman]

Reminds me of like 5-6 other occasions in last 5 years

I would rather lose by hundred runs in 1st session

We always end up sitting for hours biting our nails only to lose

 

[Ahmed216]

That happened when Fawad got out

Cant fault him much. One or 2 mistakes are bound to happen when u're in for so long

 

[Cric1234]

What a collapse 240-4 to 261-9 pitch is still similar only one wicket fell in the first 2 sessions.
