Looks like a defeat, they'll get a lead of 100. We'll make a similar score to the 1st innings, embarrassing.

80 run lead and they have more dangerous spin option. Usual early wicket for Masood and skipper Azhar.

Why persisting with Masood when they have that bloke who did well in England 2016, cant recall his name?

Was it Sami Aslam?

Been through so many openers, can't remember half of them

Quick start here, 32-0 after 6.

Yes, did well considering playing conditions.

Target of 250 should be enough, I reckon, Pakistan to win this

Abid at 32, where has he been?

Anyone seen the scorecard? I definitely had to double check I wasn't seeing things. Opening stand of 200+

Watch Misbah take credit for Abid even though Mickey wanted him in test team for a while.

Advantage with local coach is he is 24/7 in Pakistan to witness domestic talent and thats very important factor because first class cricket in Pakistan is not a good measure to test the standard of youngsters.

Long time since Pakistan has won a test.

4 players making a century in an innings that unbelievable.

Babar is almost getting at the Kohli level.

We need more tests in Pakistan to get our players averages higher.

Babar is excellent. Typical we've finally found a top class batsman when we have shiiit bowlers though

Great second innings performance and good win. Hopefully we can continue this going forward.

I think Bangladesh due in Pakistan ( or UAE ) in the new year.

Disagree with comment that bowlers are bad, it was bad selection compounded with inexperience and excellent opposition batting that led to disaster in Aus

We got our Pakistan back we got our Pakistan back

Was a excellent fight back and we broke some records too. This has nothing to do with Misbah again but no doubt he will take the credit.

We just need to get Yasir firing again and number 6 position is up for grabs.

Its high time all teams should play in Pakistan. Test cricket in Pakistan is 1000 times more interesting than tests in UAE. Lankas who themselves were subjected to terrorist attack came back, the rest should follow suit.

I heard Bangladesh want to play in UAE instead of touring Pakistan.

They are following their masters orders. Pcb should not entertain them in UAE.

Will be interesting to see if India agree to play Asia cup in Pakistan. Unlikely but you never know with India these days.
