Pakistan tour of Sri Lanka - 2022

[Migara]

Mark Waugh.

Mark Waugh was very pretty on eye, played some very good knocks, but no where as devastating and brutal as de Silva on song. And de Silva used to take on the fastest pace bowler of the opposition too.

Chandimal is not up to that standard yet. But he took on Ashwin while back on a Galle track turning square, so he has shown some glimpses.

Babar Azam can break all the records

BUT....he won't

Babar Azam can break all the records

Which records will he break exactly?

 

[Fuller Pilch]

No 100 for Chandimal (94*).
342 to win for Pakistan.

This game is only getting better with each passing day! Can't wait to see how the last inning unfolds.

Definitely not there, but I hope he'll turn this purple patch into something big. He still has a decent amount of years left and hope to see his career scale new heights. I always thought he'll end up as one of the greats for SL, hasn't gone in that direction so far but hopefully he will get there eventually.

 

[Himannv]

6 short of another great century.

 

[trundler]

Sitting ducks so far. A collapse feels inevitable.

 

[karan_fromthestands]

SL missed a trick by not bowling Theekshana with the new ball. His skiddy carrom balls would have created a lot of issues in the first 10 overs.

 

[trundler]

Didn't expect that. Both batsmen looking solid now. SL have bowled better than us so far but the turn has slowed down.

 

[cnerd123]

Pak have got this, easy. Babzball for the win.

 

[Apex Predator]

This is old school Saqball by Pak. Again the third spinner Theekshana doesn't look like test class.
Jayasurya looks cooked after bowling so many overs. Mendis the off spinner isn't that effective vs RHB.
Dropping Embuldeniya for Theekshana doesn't looks like a good call now.

 

[trundler]

As much as I love Embu, he'd been bowling concentrated piss for a while. Hope to see him back though.

 

[honestbharani]

Babar is in some unreal form now. Proper 2016 Virat vibes.

And why the **** are 4th innings chases becoming so easy these days?

 

[trundler]

A very well constructed knock. Pitch has become easier to bat on but the bowling has been very good still.

 

[Apex Predator]

SL will hope for a miracle with new ball... Other than that things look rosy for Pak. Shafique has been magnificent.

 

[Apex Predator]

Jaysuriya is bowling non stop... DDS is quite under bowled in this side.

 

[Apex Predator]

Babar gone... Fine inns from him. SL finally broke through

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Huuuuuge wicket. And no nightwatchman. Interesting

Did anyone see that bird fly across the pitch just as Babar left that ball and got bowled?
Replay shows it clearly, but it may or may not of had an affect on the outcome.
