Not Terrible
Gave my colleague a tip of Azhar Ali to top score and Southee to be top wicket taker after our first innings. Hoping it comes off for them.

Sarfraz is a Pretty Cool Guy. The 80 ball ton was a bit flash for my liking, but I'll always take irritating fifties with the tail from my keeper

I wish these Pakistani adverts would at least stick to one language. Switching in and out of English and seemingly random intervals is the most jarring thing.

If you're going to be putting all your eggs in the 'get Rahat on strike' basket, is it the best use of success in that plan to have Neesham bowling to him?

Attack both ends.

Going thru the motions for two thirds of each over is bull**** and sucking the intensity out of the players.

While it's more exciting for the audience, attacking both ends is pretty much the number 1 way to give up 40 or 50 runs for the last wicket. If you bring the field up he's going to go over the top which isn't hard on these wickets. Let him take the single and get the useless **** on strike.
