What target will Pakistan set for England in the 3rd Test in Karachi?

[MenInG]

To me, 300 is a minimum given England's batting depth but I am not sure what our batting is capable of.

Hopefully enough demons will surface on this pitch to make life tough for England in the second innings but lets see.

Around 325 , hopefully Pakistan bat till Tea tomorrow and have 4 sessions to bowl at England. Would be an exciting final session.

 

[pratiktc]

Anything above 240 won't be easy but with this Pak bowling attack need minimum 300+

 

[Suleiman]

225

 

[Amjid Javed]

125.

 

[MenInG]

If Babar and Saud can play out the day then a 250+ target is very possible.

 

[aukhan]

Ideally 400 should be set looking at our great pace attack.

 

[James]

I think 230 ?

 

[Amjid Javed]

If Babar and Saud can play out the day then a 250+ target is very possible.

Let's see if we can get to tea 1st without losing a wicket.

 

[MenInG]

Ideally 400 should be set looking at our great pace attack.

That would be a miracle.

Be lucky to get 175 and this is new England

Told you not to get carried away

Mark Wood did the damage do

 

[James]

I think 230 ?

205 perhaps

What should be Pakistan's strategy on Day 4?

Pakistan lost 7 wickets for 50odd runs so the same could happen with England too. Pakistan need a magical spell from someone.

Should Pakistan start with Abrar and Wasim (who was extracting reverse swing in the first innings)?

 

[boomboomcheema]

Lol most fans have accepted the Whitewash as the series result , why giving them ideas and false hopes.

 

[sam_ahm]

Probably it is a troll thread, but you need to understand that the ball has to be old first for it to reverse...Or may be you mean England have made it old by thrashing it with the bat.

 

[James]

8 wickets to take, 55 runs to score.

The batting side is the favourite almost every time here, but in theory it’s a position that the bowling side can still win from by 10-15 runs.

However, it’s highly unlikely on this particular occasion because of the way the momentum is running in the series, the gulf between the teams, and sense amongst both sides mentally that the game is done.

 

[AMSS]

Fill the empty stands with cutouts of Silverwood and see how this ENG team copes with that.

Lot of videos on how to pack your bags lol Is this a serious thread?

Cricket is a game of uncertainties.

Back in late 70s, Aus were 305-3 chasing 380odd and collapsed to 310 all out courtesy Sarfaraz Nawaz.

 

[ghaint]

Pakistan can still win. Have attacking fields with Abrar, Nauman and Wasim jr bowl in tandem. Chances are low, but it was not very long ago that England were known for their collapses. I downside of Pakistan win will be - Babar will say we dominated the series. If Pakistan lose, I think Ramos Raja will go.

 

[Buffet]

55 runs still need to be made.

 

[ghaint]

Never count Pakistan out, but lately Pakistan has lost that killer instinct. Plus they don’t have the bowlers that finish off the opposition.

 

[Energy]

Looks like a joke thread.

A more serious question should have been where will Faheem take the boys out for roti tonight?

 

[moghul]

Finish the match ASAP and take some well deserved rest and have lunch at some good restaurant . Give Faheem a marathon spell of 3 overs and he will take care of it for us.

 

[jiduguravindra]

Even if England top order collapse they have wood as a batsmen. He played spin better than some Pakistan batsmen.

 

[Omer2002]

I think we should do 55 wides....honestly as england have taken the micky out of us all three tests...i think we should take our own micky

 

[RehanG]

Don’t come out to play.

Play the COVID card
