Good aggressive declaration imo. Pakistan will be reluctant to take many risks after how feeble their tail was yesterday.

Yeah, Pakistan playing a batsman short would've weighed in on this declaration.

He's cut from a different kind of cloth though. Pakistan have a lot of accumulators, but no real monster hitter to put a side really under pressure.
We'll see though.

This declaration makes me feel uneasy. I like it.

Haven't been able to access pictures of this match, cricket coverage in Italy and Germany really sucks btw.
But looking at the scorecard, and with the series locked up 0-0, isn't this declaration way too generous by Australia?
I mean, why are Australia even giving Pakistan any chance when they hold all the cards?

The best answer I can give is "Pakistan probably won't take risks with such a long tail, the pitch is fairly slow and it gives them two bites at reverse swing".
I agree it's a risk though. And Australia have lost out on most of their 4th innings risks in recent years.

Teams usually don't go after it so early in the innings.
They can afford to be cautious until first hour tomorrow and then decide to up their scoring rate.

Here they have to because it gets significantly harder to score quickly once the ball gets soft.
Meanwhile, Carey really is no good at reviews hey
