This is moving test lower order mostly among runs at Galle
If Australia were so strong why couldn't they beat a 'Medicore' Sri Lanka side in Sri Lanka , in one of the matches they even lost by an innings..don't be arrogant man .
people were labelling the Ashes Test pitches similarly, "a road" for the 1st Test yet no sided topped 386 (1324 runs, 36 wickets), "green" for the 2nd Test and yet more runs were scored albeit for all 40 wickets
Over the course of an innings things like luck and bad shots can play a huge role. Yesterday every Pakistani batsman bar Imam-ul-Haq got off to a quick start but threw it away senselessly. I watched the whole morning session just now and really nothing happened off the pitch. The #8 looks very comfortable out there. 400 is there for the taking as you say. SL were 4 down for not much because Shaheen is gun with the new ball. He even got Labu and Warner out cheaply and consistently last summer on the flattest decks known to man.
He slightly modified his name to trick people into believing he's a completely different player.
A plan of Baldrick proportions
It was around 1700 BC, when his friend gary the final tyrannosaurus rex went extinct, Nauman (former name) realised the significance of this world and hereafter. He questioned life, love and power. Centuries later he still questioned these thoughts as generations kept wiping away in front of his eyes. “Oh goodbye Hammond you fraud” said Nauman as he wiped a tear and kept moving on into the next gen. But this generation excited him, he saw two great spinners tear oppositions down, but alas their time ended too. Nauman waited and waited for the next spinning talent to come through but seeing Ashwin and Jadeja averaging 39.5 and 37 away vs Top 6, he knew the world needed a proper hero. And thus at such an old age Nauman decided the time has come to debut and restore the natural law and order in cricket. Unfortunately during his debut year, cricket analysts on the internet had been blinded by Ashwin and Jadeja’s overall stats so much that they could not see the imbalance of more home games stuffed into their average. Nauman was sad that his brilliance was being pushed to the side by the world with all the cameras panning towards those two. “Who’s the new guy in the SL series, he’s unbelievably good!”, thats what Nauman believed would happen if he changed his name, he could perhaps refresh his image in the media once he takes his 10fer in the next innings of the game, and give the cricketing world the hero it deserves.
I admire the effort
Classic subcontinent player. Very light on his feet and plays with soft hands. Minimal physical intensity and crisp range of shots against spin.
In other words: Pakistan gonna Pakistan
They haven't really had all these bowlers play together before. They've had some real stinkers playing. Not to mention batting Sajid at 7.
Every team dominates at home except them. Thats their problem. What kind of pitches they creating where they cant even take advantage of it lmao
