Any chance of Smith at least getting Inglis on strike

Speaking of things that people don't care about as much as they used to....

Still more than this series when everyone cares about tests against India

 

[Moonwatcher]

Tough chance

 

[Plugger35]

Great ball from Naseem, a shame the bad old Pakistan fielding returned with a drop.

 

[CakeEater]

Tough chance that

Is Warner trying to be the new Matthew Hayden in the commentary box?

Doing my head in with his dopey voice

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Good cricket this over

 

[Westend]

Smudge looking good

 

[greatwhiteshark]

Did many people even know the game was on, I only found out when I got on the app to check the shield scores

On SM-A136B using BigFooty.com mobile app

The Pakistanis found out.

Warner is right about different cultures supporting in different ways. For various reasons discussed ad nauseum in this thread, our support for white ball cricket has certainly waned. What the commentators aren't mentioning is that we support Tests better than any subcontinent nation.

 

[Westend]

Nice shot Josh

 

[Thrillthorpe7]

Even t20 he’ll be that hit and miss it probably isn’t worth it

Yes he will, he’ll be a dominant T20 batter for the next 10-15 years. He’s already winning games for his team in the best T20 leagues in the world. Finding that middle ground is needed if he wants to succeed in longer formats.

Smith striking it like that through the off side is glorious.

I struggle with the scheduling of this game.26 October Pakistan was playing a test match over there v England.8 days later they are expected to play cricket in Australia.

I thought it might have been a tough chase with those early couple of wickets but it looks like being a walk in the park now.

Fraser-McGurk was always going to go early with Short a 50/50 prospect of doing the same. The early wickets weren't an indication of Pakistan being in the match.

 

[Lingsface]

Rolf Harris playing for Pakistan nowadays?

I new he faked his death!

 

[Moonwatcher]

Is Head just resting or is there another reason he's not playing tonight?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Rested and think he is playing the shield match (he was rested for one)

 

[Moonwatcher]

Oh Smiffy

 

[Moonwatcher]

Rested and think he is playing the shield match (he was rested for one)

Rested for 2 shield matches I think

 

[FullyBigKPro]

ahhh damn

Suspect it might have something to do with us winning the World Cup pretty often.

 

[MJG14]

He was looking good
