If we can't even make 300 runs in a day against Bangladesh then what the hell are we going to do against the Number one side?

Pak should declare now. Give themselves 20 overs to clean up the Bangla top order and have things wrapped up by tomorrow afternoon. Asad Shafiq is probably the worst batsman aside from Azhar Ali that you want out there at this time. Let Umar Gul have a swing.

no point in giving the bangers any play today.

Play the whole day today and then come out tomorrow and try to wrap the game before tea

Because finishing a match midway through day 3 is somehow better?

Classic "what they should do" and "what I'd like to see" confusion.

Good final comment on cricinfo

We'll leave you with Mark's comment: "Is this really the same side that posed so many problems for an admittedly second-string England side only 2 years ago? Bangladesh seemed to be progressing well and then went back to their worst again. Their only defence here is that they are playing against one of the form sides of world cricket right now. This Pakistan side looks good enough to beat far better opposition."

Let's see

Well that's what happens Bangladesh when you let one of the best coaches in the world go. Can't believe they shafted Jamie Siddons the way they did.

was jamie siddons any good?
I thought he was fantastic for them especially with their batting. He turned Shakib and Tamim into very good players as well as turning guys like Siddique, Mushfiqur and Mahmudullah into very capable test match batsmen. He was a coach who made the players believe in their own abilities.

No need to exaggerate Smali. If these two bat all day tomorrow, Younis will get 200 and Shafiq will get his century. We should then declare and have plenty of time to get Bangladesh all out in the last two days.

Or who knows, maybe one of them might get out

Maybe that's just me being ridiculous.
