West Indies vs Pakistan in UAE 2016

[Black_Warrior]

Pakistan should consider the declaration soon. There's no way you're going to enforce the follow on and have your bowlers bowl in two consecutive innings in these conditions. Might as well give yourself more time to bat twice and bowl them out twice.

You hero...would literally have never thought to look that far

You're welcome.

 

[weldone]

The problem with all West Indies pace bowlers is that none of them know how to swing a cricket ball.

But it's easier to score runs faster on day 2 at 450/2 than on day 4, at let's say, tea at 40/2 with a lead of about 100.

What they definitely should do is take a few risks in trying to score at 6 an over.

Joseph , Cummins and Gabriel could definitely develop into a quality bowling unit. Gabriel has been impressive of late without taking a bit haul of wickets. Perhaps Joseph will develop into that attack leader. I hope they wrap him in cotton wool.

As for Holder, I see the comparisons to Sammy but he does have a considerably tighter batting technique. He is picked to bowl though and he doesn't take nearly enough wickets.

Babar's wrists

 

[OverratedSanity]

Miserable to watch the Windies these days

 

[weldone]

Darren Sammy v2. People used to say the same thing about Sammy for the first 2-3 years

He's a better test cricketer than Sammy.

 

[mr_mister]

Andre Russell also fits the mould of an apparent "bowling all-rounder" who's feats with the bat are more impressive than with the ball these days

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

enough is enough...waqar and bish get your **** up from a/c room and start bowling pls

 

[Howe_zat]

Declaring before tea on day 2 is pointless, you being bored is not a reason to declare

 

[mr_mister]

yeah may as well just go for 700 and assume you won't have to bat again

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

perfect time for misbah to break his own record

 

[mr_mister]

lol was just gonna post something like that AndyZ. a quick firer 50 baller is in order Misbah, your signature innings

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Triple hundred up then declare?

Some form he has found after looking terrible in the first couple of tests against England a few months back.
