Cricket

It'd be a terrific win if we manage to get the wickets tomorrow.

Only seen a few highlights, but this Yasir Shah looks a good bowler. Also great to see Younis still going strong. One of the few great Test batsman left from the pre-T20 era.
 
Steven Smith is just a fantastic cricketer. I was completely wrong about him. He's one of my favourite players now.
 
Defeated Australia by 221 runs, a much needed victory :cool:

Also, we really need to drop hafeez for Umar Akmal now or find him a space in the team.

The Australian Collingwood, I've always liked him but I never thought he'd be the 3rd best Aussie batsman (2nd on form right now), fantastic application.
 
Younis. Wow.

Special, special player. I love this quote too:

"I am not great .. like Javed, Inzamam, Yousuf or Hanif Mohammad. I can't compare myself with them," Younis said after the day's play.

"The era I am playing in is easy for me compared to theirs. I want to be remembered as a team-man who loves to serve and his performance makes his country proud and win."

Borderline humble and arrogant, I love it.
 
Enjoying this series big time. Rubbing salt in the wounds of those arrogant Australians is a satisfying feeling. Nice to see the batting click in such a fashion after a couple of poor months. Younis has been fecking brilliant, Azhar is cementing his place at no. 3 and Sarfraz has been a real breath of fresh air since the SL series (he should be playing all three forms of the game). Bowlers have also been impressive without Junaid, Irfan and Ajmal.

And Mr. Tuk Tuk Misbah with the fastest fifty ever in Tests. Who would have thought? Crazy. :lol:
 
Sums up the world cricket at this moment. Every team is great at home and crap away.
 
Mishah :eek:

Why can't he do that in limited overs cricket?!
 
Why is Glenn Maxwell playing test cricket? He has no business there whatsoever. We need smart batsmen that can bat for time, not have players who start trying reverse sweeps when trying to save a test. Ugh. Disappointing series. Not good enough. Losing the toss made it hard but our batting has been atrocious.
 
Well done Pakistan and Misbah. Blistering stuff! Something about Pakistan cricket. Such a likeable team.
 
Brilliant from Pakistan! A few records broken and a very convincing win over the Aussies. Well done!!
 
Dhawan scores his 3rd consecutive half century but I don't think I'll pick him in my World Cup XI(maybe I'm too harsh on him). Akshar Patel though has been very impressive. Looks a much better bowler than Jadeja. Definite test match prospect(away matches) IMO.
 
Nobody watching Rohit Sharma? fecking incredible innings!!!
 
Also, another excellent win for Pakistan! Must be our longest Test win streak since whitewashing England a few years ago?
