Australia should have won the toss. When will they start training to make sure they get the right call at the start.

Oh dear*.

10 wickets for 60 runs, after a great opening.

Memorable debut for Bilal, though. Fantastic figures of 6/36, after coming on 3rd change bowler.


Also, very good for Finch, after all these years, he gets a surprise test call up and starts off well.






*again
Maybe

The only thing of surprise here was that Australia made 140 runs before the collapse happened, lulling us into a false sense of security. Over the last three years, Australia's batting has been almost as frail as England's, especially overseas. Not just in Asia, but in England and South Africa too. What's kept their heads above the parapet has largely been that they don't usually collapse at home (where wickets have been pretty flat lately), and Steve Smith.

No non-Asian side seems to be able to bat in Asia at the moment. South Africa fell in a heap when they toured India too.

I can't say I'm surprised the follow-on wasn't enforced, even though it probably made sense to. But I guess the reasoning was that the bowlers had been out there for 80 overs in 38 degree heat, with Shah and Asif having bowled 50 between them. They probably felt that they needed a rest. To be honest, while it makes the draw marginally more likely, I'll be astonished if it makes any difference to the result. Pakistan will be 400 ahead by lunch, and there's no way Australia will chase that, whether they bowl Pakistan out or there's a declaration (which would guess would happen at about 450 ahead, somewhere between lunch and tea).

Yet more grist for the mill of doing away with the toss in test cricket and letting the visitors choose?

Doubt they'll need to declare ... ball doing more progressively from lunch yesterday so I suspect they will be bowled out some time after lunch , fairly cheaply. Which won't matter as they have more than enough runs already. Can't see Australia lasting long second time around.

I am generally quite keen to enforce follow on ; but in this case I think it very reasonable for Pakistan to give their bowlers a bit of a rest. And further wear down the Aussie bowlers - although it seems Starc and Siddle may not have much to do other than field...

This highlights just how bizarre the Australian innings was. Second best partnership for Australia in Asia, followed by one of the worst collapses.

Pakistan's lead grows. Not sure why Australia are still bowling Starc. Surely spin from both ends? Maybe just bowling for the declaration?

Aim to bat another half hour, take the lead to 500, declare and give yourself 4.5 sessions.....
