With one session left i can only say that Khawaja has had a fantastic game.To be on the field under oppressive heat for over 4 days and play 2 quality innings is an excellent performance.
Hopefully a draw can be salvaged in a game in which we never looked a chance mainly due to his efforts with the bat

He has had a reputation to be a bit soft - maybe this test is showing that’s not the case. Good on him.

There’s a day and a session left. Draw is not in the equation. Pakistan declares too early.

Renshaw in please. For either of those useless Marsh brothers.

Surely we name both Marshes we get an automatic 100 run bonus or we get to pick another player to play as well

 

[happy_tiger]

39 overs left now ??

Is that correct ??

No way they will get that many in. Once their is an hour to go on the set times you can bowl 15 overs or to offical stumps.

Usman has been on of my favourite players since I first saw him for nsw in the shield. Great cricketer who has had ups and downs but still has many years left in Australian colours. Has shown his worth in this match no matter what happens.

 

[Tiger_Steve]

24 overs left

The Pakistanis will bowl the majority of it out , one wicket and we are hanging by a thread again

Pakistan win is still the favourite at this point, not enough bat in the tail.

Dunno , some of our top scores in the first dig came from 9 and 10 :smiley:

 

[Tiger_Steve]

21 to go. 5 wickets down

 

[Chicken_Faced_Killa]

Last hour now. Can they hold on?

 

[Chicken_Faced_Killa]

Usman out, such a shame he’s been out in the middle for most of this match.

4 wickets in hand, 87 balls to face.

 

[Tiger_Steve]

Just lost Usman. Still 14 overs to go

 

[Chicken_Faced_Killa]

Starc gone, good catch.

Can Bananaman save the day?

3 wickets, 77 balls.

 

[Tiger_Steve]

I’m losing hope (and sleep)

 

[Chicken_Faced_Killa]

Siddle gone now. All over.

Two wickets left. 74 balls.

Paine must be reaching his limit for balls faced in test cricket as well.

 

[Tiger_Steve]

Great catch at short leg.

 

[Chicken_Faced_Killa]

10 overs to go two wickets in hand.

Lyon can do this. He can hang around
