17th Match - Australia v Pakistan

[Spark]

Sooo, how likely is a washout?

max 10% chance of rain for the remainder of the day

 

[morgieb]

Looks outside the line.

 

[Spark]

wait did they seriously review that

 

[Starfighter]

That's an awful one.

 

[trundler]

That was very clearly outside by miles

 

[quincywagstaff]

Embarrassing review, sums up Pakistan's play today. Was obvious live it was a mile outside off.

 

[stephen]

Geez Amir is bowling on a different pitch than the other guys.

 

[Starfighter]

Oh God, Malik's bowling is about as unattractive as is possible.

 

[stephen]

That bowling card is embarrassing for anyone who isn't named Amir.

 

[trundler]

Pitch really wasn't that bad. This fact will be strengthened when Starc rips through this lineup.

Decent from Malik. Don't see TPC charge like that often.

 

[morgieb]

Waqar really should be the main Pakistan commentator rather than Ramiz/Wasim.

 

[trundler]

Peak Pakistani fielding lol

 

[Starfighter]

How do you bowl a no ball bowling gentle off breaks?

 

[trundler]

Now a no ball from the offie. This is.. substandard.

 

[Spark]

That's about as bad a free hit ball as I've seen (that was still a legal delivery, anyway). Rancid.

 

[morgieb]

I bag Stoinis a bit but if he was here we'd be on for 400.

 

[Starfighter]

Plenty of overthrows today, though none to the rope.

 

[quincywagstaff]

Geez, even by the lowest efforts of Pakistan cricket over the years this fielding effort has been abysmal.

 

[vcs]

It plops over the rope, into and out of the hands of a Pakistani spectator ... standards are low either side of the rope today ...

from cricinfo commentary... heh

 

[Starfighter]

I bag Stoinis a bit but if he was here we'd be on for 400.

The way he's been batting he'd get out for 6, but he wouldn't slow the tempo like Darsh and Pillow.
