"We were all very saddened by Misbah-ul-Haq not reaching his hundred" : Sarfraz Ahmed

[MenInG]

Sarfraz Ahmed speaking at end of Day 4

"Our aim was to get a 100+ lead and thanks to the efforts of Younis and Misbah Bhai we got there and made good use of it"

"I Would like to give huge amounts of credit to Yasir Shah for taking 4 wickets"

"Our position is very strong and should we take an early wicket tomorrow then it will become more stronger"

"Cracks in the pitch are opening up more on the fifth day which is good for Yasir Shah from the end he is bowling from"

"It's not an easy pitch to bat on as long as our bowlers bowl well"

"Our aim is to make sure that we have to chase a low target as it's never easy to bat on a fifth day pitch"

"We are all very saddened by Misbah not reaching 100; we were hoping that he would have got his hundred on the previous shot

"It was not to be and there are 2 more Tests left for him to get more hundreds "

"Any match of the series is important but a win will definitely give us momentum"

I think we have 175 runs to play with and 2 sessions. Don't want to be chasing more than 150 in the last session.

If they score 175, Pakistan will be chasing 150.

Yes. Thats what I said. 147 in the last session. Can't let windiest bat beyond tea at all because of light issues. What's the weather like today

I feel for abbas here. He's not a batsman so shouldn't be blamed for getting out when he did. Also, it's just a hundred. At the age of 42 I don't think misbah will care much so there's no point coming to a press conference saying every1 was saddened.

Not his fault, he played really well for a #11.

 

[basitmian]

its misbah's fault for playing tuk tuk no one elses

If he is dropped in the next game everyone will blame misbah

 

[Hawkeye]

The selfless king!

Worries not Sarfraz. Mishbah doesn't care and was laughing at being left out of partners.
