Australia tour of UAE, 2nd test at Abu Dhabi, 16-20 October, Match thread

In Uae your team used to play really well under Misbah became a fortress but shocking that they are 5 down 

Yup. Disgraceful that Pak fans hated Misbah. The team is surely missing him & YK.

Lyon is an underrated spinner credit to him bowled really well.

Arthur looks like is controlling his anger by covering his face

Fakhar is a lucky fellow, easy catch missed of him by Labujhanna

Way overrated. His weakness will be exploited in overseas conditions for sure. Imam looks real deal to me.

Find Shafiq and Rahane very similar one or two good innings but when the pressure is on they crumble.

Though he is their best player , I agree he is quite similar to Rahane

Pakistan  57  for  5   at   " home ".     Losing 4 wickets to spinner on day 1.

 

Babbar Billi   goes for a mighty heave and is out 2nd ball.  Coach perhaps forgot to tell him that this is a test match against Australia and not a T20I against Zimbabwe.

Why are you shocked

 

all 4 of them supposed to be decent players of spin

[Asim]

Last 10 overs: 61/0

[Switchblade]

120-5 is a good recovery so far considering they were 67-5

[Lala]

Fakhar proved he can change gears and suitable for any format. Great player. 

[Lala]

Get another 100 runs and game is done and dusted for Aus. 

[Lala]

lol sharfraz thinks he is playing an ODI game. strike rate is over 80. Sal** joker lost his mind. 

[Switchblade]

Great recovery by Pakistan 

[cric_fan]

This one looks out

[cric_fan]

Adv Pak with toss...
Sami Aslam should be there instead of Fakhar...
 
Good to see Hamza finally making a start...

No way. Fakhar is a player this side needs.

Arre bhai, this is test match and not odi. there are 5 more days to play and time is crucial factor. Sharfraz is playing a one day game, that he thinks this is the only day to score runs. such a hurry.
