Eerily similar starts but will they end up the same ? Pakistan has the propensity to collapse so very possible. Crucial first session tomorrow.

@voiceofreason

I was just looking at the similarity.

However I doubt Pakistan is going to lose their last seven wickets for 112 or less. They have several capable all rounders in the team.

I was disappointed with both Hodge and Hope, not christening that new ground with a century each.

The bowlers will have to bowl well tomorrow to limit Pakistan's scoring considering we may not even have Chase.

@voiceofreason

#7 playing #8😀

@Chrissy

And 'leben' possibly playing 9. I will forever say it was high incompetence that appointed a cappo and vee-cee who cannot be honestly penciled in for every test on every wicket.Dis one out of ten performance for sure picks cannot endure.

@embsallie

Bro we are talking about Pakistan who are as mercurial as the West indies. The batting after Riswan 40 ave, Jamal ave 27 with 2x50, and the debutant averages 27 at FC with 5x50 and 1x100. Get an early wicket tomorrow I think we can get a small lead and they have to bat last and the pitch will not get better.

@embsallie

259/7 from 199/3. 60/4.

259/8 60/5 today! Greaves!

@voiceofreason

Point taken. There have been occasions where Pakistan's tail wag more than they should.

I am happy it is not today.😀

I would continue with Greaves and Shamar after lunch to clean up the remaining two wickets and to also give Greaves a chance for a five fer.

@embsallie

9 down! We may end up with a slim lead!

@voiceofreason

Any lead is helpful in the last innings

@Halliwell

Down to 34 come on fellas!
