*Official* Australia in Pakistan 2022

[Gnske]

I mean, at least he survived three balls.

 

[morgieb]

From 248/3 to 268 all out.

how

 

[Burgey]

8/20 is a hell of a collapse by any measure. Great effort from the two quicks. World class stuff

 

[Son Of Coco]

What a spectacular period of reverse batting that was from Pakistan.

 

[trundler]

From 248/3 to 268 all out.

how

Sajid at 7

 

[Prince EWS]

Sajid's batting seems to have a bit of a mythical quality to it in Pakistan, a bit like how Bilal Asif batted #6 in FC cricket for years and even opened the batting in a couple of ODIs despite never ever scoring any runs domestically (I'm not exaggerating, he averaged 16 and passed 50 four times in 65 knocks ).

1115 runs in 48 FC games @ 17. One ton.

Test #7.

thank you starc

From 248/3 to 268 all out.

how

We all commented on the ridiculous tail. It was always a chance.

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Lyon softened them up.

Blame Thakur imo.

 

[GotSpin]

Oh yeah but with that angle, always going to look more out than it actually is

Yeah live it looked dead. Then looking at it again the angle did suggest it was swinging a lot.

Still I guess it makes up for the 2 non-LBW's in the previous Test

Yeah true. Always forget how much angle the left hander around the wicket gets

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Pakistan did an England there…so many ducks at the end

 

[Gnske]

This team is definitely paid off. I mean, how do you not hit a reversing ball? Just use your eyes bro.

 

[quincywagstaff]

Next question is how long Australia bat for; should be pretty aggressive as Pakistan will just be dead batting from ball one after how their tail played.

 

[morgieb]

Yeah once Rizwan went I thought there was a chance of a massive lolapse.

Still staggering to see live though. That everyone in the Pakistani tail is a slogger (or just a plain ferret) didn't help, I think having a more solid tail-ender might've got a bit of a partnership going with Babar.

Yeah I mean some of the batting was indifferent and the batsmen, well, not very good, but this was seriously high quality stuff. I genuinely think every single ball Cummins bowled asked the batsman to play some sort of forward defense aside from one bouncer that Sajid almost gloved.

WTAF happened there

123 isn't a decisive lead in itself tbf. Have to secure the result first.

Is Simon Katich in a healthy place…?
