Pak tail starts from Sarfraz so England need to get one wicket quickly and then they can run through the tail in quick succession

That story of Sobers telling Wes Hall that he’d tap his bat at the non striker’s end when Chandra was going to bowl a wrong un so Wes could pick it is ****ing gold.

^ That's actually how most Pak fans think. Never seen a fan base so ignorant about their own team.

Wow. That is a big call. Because I constantly see Australian cricket fans take the moral high ground about not only their team and their behaviour, but road pitches. #discuss.

Love how well informed Isa Guha is on every Pakistani player and their achievements and abilities. C9 at this stage would be saying "we haven't seen much of Azhar Ali/Asad Shafiq but looks a decent bat"

Please. At best until he scores a hundred in Australia the best a visiting player can hope for is useful. Decent is after back to back hundreds. At the third hundred on tour - you're finally world class if they like, or more than useful and just a "handy cricketer" if they don't

True but they're not ignorant about their own team though. You won't see an Australian fan coming here and saying Steve Smith is a selfish player who should be dropped. Azhar Ali is the Steve Smith of Pakistan team - their best batsman. And most Pakistan fans want him dropped from the side and long for Afridi to make a comeback.

Yeah they called Shafiq decent after his Brisbane ton. This is a guy with over 50 Test matches and Healy goes "not seen much of Shafiq but looked a decent bat today'

Most of the people here don't know much much about Pak cricket and their politics. If Pak had two world-class players (Shafiq and Azhar, what most people think here) why would they lose to SL at home?
