2nd Test: Pakistan v Australia @ Karachi, March 12-16 2022

[TheParraboy]

Over 2 full days left
203 overs min

Bat 60-75min into tomorrow ? Over 160 overs to bowl them out

Probably want to make sure we take advantage of a 5th day deck if need be. Also just make them sweat a bit more in the field. Plenty of time to win it

 

[_snafu_]

The follow on in cricket is a bit like the voluntary tackle in rugba leeg - never enforced.

Imagine celebrating a wicket like that when your team trails by 4 bajillion runs

Tbh I celebrate like that when I bowl my 7 year old nephew in the backyard.

Once my 8 month old is old enough to hold a bat I'm going to give him a bouncer barrage.

Mostly because anybody over the age of 3 can tonk my short shit.

I yorked my 11 week old today. Horrible technique, gone first ball. Yet still better than Marcus Harris.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I absolutely smashed my 9 year old neice when she tried to side step me the other day. Followed up with a facial and sledged her all the way into the ambulance.Play hard or go home.

If you can't sledge someone who is decades younger then you, than life just isn't worth living.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Stumps Australia 1/81, 489276* runs ahead with 2 days to play.

*Possibly only the first 3 digits ahead.

 

[Eelectrica]

Declare with 165 overs left. Get use of the second new ball if needed. Could be a difference maker if they're 8 or 9 down.

 

[Bazal]

Gutless waste of time.

Clearly it was crucial for us to go 5 or 600 runs ahead instead of 400...

 

[King-Gutho94]

I am not fussed batting again for 30 odd overs. Put just a little bit more work into their quicks ahead of another short turnaround.

Declare 30 mins before lunch tomorrow and 5 sessions is more then enough to bowl them out.

Pakistan have decided they want to docile the pitch and have negative tactics so a slow death is fine by me.

And Mike Haysman had the shits with the decision which makes it even funnier must have a had a booking on the golf course for day 5.

 

[King-Gutho94]

BTW do you reckon the PCB have rang up the groundsman in Lahore for the 3rd test to change the prep for the pitch.

I doubt the 3rd test will be a highway with them likely being 1-0 down.

They may and probably should just roll the dice with a raging turner. Make for some entertaining cricket.

 

[JJ]

Warnie will be annoyed...

Australia should win this in a canter either way, but a draw would be disastrous - again, either way the chances of that are very very small...

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Interesting read.

Australia v Pakistan: When was the last time Australia enforced a follow-on?

The Kolkata effect: Has Australia been scared into not enforcing follow-ons?

As Pat Cummins instructed his batters to pad up again despite a massive lead over Pakistan, the same old question was raised again is Australia spooked by the follow-on ghosts of Kolkata 2001?

What is with Mike Haysman? Comes across as a cranky pants all the time and I don’t remember him being like that usually.

Whenever we play in South Africa he is the lead host and always been a pain to listen to.
