If only they analysed Wades drops as much.

 

[Bazal]

Pretty poor decision again IMO. Hardly conclusive

 

[typicalfan]

Yeah but Wade calls "mark" so technically they're catches....

 

[8Ball]

Good stuff from Handscomb. Unselfish

 

[Tommy Smith]

Is Sarfraz worse than Wade?

Another missed stumping.

It's giant Douche and Turd Sandwich all over again.

He's a better keeper than Wade. Pakistan just don't give a shit anymore. I think it was KTF said Sarfraz is typical of the subcontinent cricketer, once the head gets down its all over, no mental toughness...bang on IMO.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Why wouldn't you declare with a 440 run lead given the time left in the game?

It makes zero sense. Very defensive captaincy from Smith.

I'd have declared at 400 tbh.

 

[Sphagnum]

Why are we still batting?

 

[8Ball]

Now they're spending overs and overs talking about Sarfraz's keeping.

 

[typicalfan]

230 runs of 30 overs isnt defensive. They will declare soon.

 

[hineyrulz]

Yeah we have had plenty for a while, i suppose he wants to goes at them with a newish ball.

 

[Sphagnum]

Pakistan better go for the win here. Nothing to lose

 

[Timbo]

The way he's pongoing it, I'd be alright with Handscomb keeping in the ODIs and returning Nevill just for the red ball stuff.

 

[Mr Angry]

Declare already.

Persistence with Usman pays of, now averaging around 50.

 

[T-Boon]

All of these runs are Adam Vogesk. The whole Pak series is stat padding.

 

[Bazal]

230 runs of 30 overs isnt defensive. They will declare soon.

It's not defensive batting, it's defensive captaincy to not declare though.

Edit. About time

 

[Mr Angry]

Lol so they do

 

[Sphagnum]

Have channel 9 got at the pakis?

'We need you to bowl fruit and field like shit'
'We need you to hang in there with the bat'
'We need your wicket to be worse than wade'

You couldn't script all this shit better.
