*Official* Bangladesh Tour of Pakistan- Test Series

[SillyCowCorner1]

That's a beauty!

Top of off stump. The perfect delivery.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

What a delivery to get Shahzad. Did his job though

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Getting the nightwatchman at close of play is a big flex.

What a gripping test match. Loved it today

With the rain and interminable hours waiting for the ground to dry at Pindi, it probably won't get much further which is a real shame as it's poised nicely

If the forecast comes true, we won't get more than a day's length of play.

btw Pakistan bowled 15 overs less than the scheduled number of overs today. Thats appalling given that they need to win the test.

Over rate is least of their worries rn with WTC Final chance nearly blown way too early

 

[centurymaker]

But every few overs count in a game which has been and will be severely shortened by weather.

I can see Pakistan finding themselves in situation where they have Bangladesh 100/6 at close on day 5. Falling short because they run out of time.

Over the the two days, 23 overs have been underbowled... thats the difference between potentially drawing the series and actually losing the series.

Besides the absolute farce that is the format of it, surely the WTC would have more interest in it if they had a semi-final? Why on earth would the rest of the teams care when it becomes clear very soon that only 3 or 4 teams have a chance of getting to the final?

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Hope Jay Shah fixes this.

 

[LangleyburyCCPlayer]

I’m not crying about it, England have won out and England have lost out due to rain, but losing days to weather is just mental isn’t it? Cricket is such a stupid sport…

 

[LangleyburyCCPlayer]

Would like to see Bangladesh win the series, but more than anything, I want to see them win it properly rather than be saved by rain

I mean if it rains now, I don't exactly think it is Bangladesh who is being saved.

 

[Aritro]

They're clearly not going to collapse. Bring on the rain

 

[LangleyburyCCPlayer]

Another one bites the dust, other than Mehidy and Litton it’s been a bowler’s Test, pitch still doing stuff or nah?

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

I have a feeling Babar will play match winning knock now

It's fizzing nicely for spin. I don't think there's as much on offer for the quicks, but they've used the new ball well. I think in another ten overs they'll be as ineffectual as the Pakistan quicks were after the ball got old.

Babar

It's Rizwan I'm worried about.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Nahid Rana too good
