Great ton to Warner

Riaz to Warner, 3 runs, there it is. First man to get a hundred in a first session in Australia. Steers it wide of third man and scampers for the third, as the fielder was late to get to the ball. Warner removes his helmet and jumps with joy. The crowd are on thier feet. So are his teammates. It has been on hell of a knock from Warner. Desereves every bit of the applause

Renshaw has the best seat in the house
Pak appears clueless. Innocuous.
This should be Mishbah's last tour.
In reply to runout
On this track.....Warner could make a similar ton against any attack
This is another Warner's gem
In reply to Narper
Perhaps...however if you looked at Pakistan's approach to the game, there was no real challenge from them. No tenacity. And they never looked like taking a wicket. Even the Indian quicks appears more competitive, albeit this pitch.
The times Amir challenged him, he was ducking...they really should have given him more short stuff. e doesn't hook well enough, as oppose to his drives and cuts.
In reply to runout
Rameez Raja said this track in similar to Abu Dhabi...it is a flat track.
But you are also right....Pakistan is demoralized...with their cappo debating whether to retire....a broken leader
OZ have been known to go after the opposing cappo.....Misbah can't buy a run these days....made to feel useless as a batsman and a cappo as Pakistan have now lost 5 in a row

Yasir Shah to Warner, 1 run, to fine leg
In reply to Narper
I hear you. But man, I am disappointed in Pak's effort. Flat pitch and all.

What you say about that?
Warner goes....you never know what the end of day score will be
In reply to Narper
Man, this guy is a rookie trying to have a foot hold in the team His defense is half baked, and his offensive shots are off the mark. But he is learning, and there is no better teacher than Warner.
We always hear about flat pitches in India etc...but this has to rank right up there with the flattest of pitches the world over.
He is gawn now

good knock! entertaining for sure.
Renshaw will be in trouble in India.
He appears very limited, almost too timid. And I am sure that Jadeja and Ashwin are looking forward to the challenge.
good fifty...always happy for a young man making his footprint on the game
With all the lefties Aus has, why don't Pak play a right arm offspinner?
Damnnnnnnnn...gotta take those

Agreed.

48.1
Riaz to Khawaja, out Caught by Sarfraz!! Riaz breaks this partnership. Its the big wicket of Khawaja. Though he wasn't looking at his best. It was a wide delivery outside off, Khawaja forces a drive away from his body and gets a thick outside edge through to the keeper. Soft dismissal that as he walks back disappointed.

Who was the last genuine one to play for Pak?
In reply to Narper
Cannot recall...think that last was Hafeez...but we see the lefties struggling with offspinners.
Yasir is a flopper. And with him goes Pak fortunes....

Imran Khan to Renshaw, OUT, and Renshaw's innings ends. Superb knock from the 20-year-old. What were you doing when you were 20? A good length delivery outside off, Renshaw plants his front foot forward, slightly across like usual. Wanted to dab one down to third man but the holds its line, unlike the previous deliveries, takes the inside edge and knocks into the stumps. A loud ovation for Renshaw

Azhar Ali to Handscomb, 1 run, worked away towards midwicket and he'll get the run. Handscomb's second Test century. Off comes the helmet, loud applause from the SCG crowd.
In reply to Narper
Can't remember Pak looking this impotent. Something is really really wrong
I hope that the Psk batsmrn apply themselves and don't give it away.
Bat long, bat hard. Bat long and hard....
what the heck???? Sharzeel, after being pounded for two days, then this??????
now Azam??? Maybe they are exhausted or punch drunk?

Lyon to Misbah, out Caught by (sub)Bird!! Oh dear. He's done it again. Misbah has holed out in the deep after a miscued slog-sweep. Never looked in. Tries to break free of all the pressure and throws his wicket away.It's a simple catch for Bird at deep mid-wicket.

Is this a first? I'm seeing here a wicket keeper without pads. A closer look suggests he is wearing some protection under his pants............weird one that

Lyon to Younis Khan, out Caught by Hazlewood!! He's thrown it away. Goes for the big shot and perishes. It was well tossed up outside off, bounces a tad extra. Younis comes down the track and goes for the hoick over mid-wicket. The ball takes the top edge and skies over Hazlewood, who doesn't drop these. Younis Khan walks back to the pavilion to a standing applause from SCG. This could be his last innings in Australia.
Younis Khan c Hazlewood b Lyon 13(31) [4s-2]

Hazlewood to Babar Azam, out Lbw!! Plumb!! Can't get anything as dead as this. Full delivery shapes in on the stumps, Babar Azam falls over on the flick and misses it altogether. Hazlewood knew he had got his man, started celebrating and turns to see the umpire's finger raised. Easy call for the umpire. Decided against the review too. Babar Azam's struggle in Australia is over.

O'Keefe to Yasir Shah, out Caught by (sub)Bird!! Caught at second slip. The umpires thought it was out but went upstairs to make sure that the catch was clean. Yasir was beaten on the outside edge last ball, this follow-up delivery was flighted and slightly wider, making Yasir Shah reach out with a poke. No feet there. Just lunged across and pokes a low outside edge to Bird.

Dem people writing dat commentary eh have a clue. If dat ball was well tossed up den ah shud stop watching cricket. Lyon saw de man coming down de track and pulled the length back a bit
3 months ago Pakistan were #1 now they are just 1 rating point from being in 7th
In reply to Maispwi
Lyon to Younis Khan, OUT, uh oh. Younis the one to play a false stroke this time. Undone by Lyon's magnificent pace variations. Runs down to the pitch but doesn't quite get there because the length is shorter. Goes through with a heave into the leg side. The ball stops on him and lobs up towards mid-on off the outside half of the bat. Hazlewood has his sights on the ball, gets underneath it and takes the catch. Just reward for some excellent bowling this morning
