Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]

What is going on with Babar Azam? He made a total of 35 runs in this test match. And before this, he last played against Bangladesh, where he made 64 runs from 4 innings. And he was expected to make a comeback. The pitch at Multan was hardly offering any assistance to the bowlers. And yet, Chris Woakes got him out cheaply in the first innings and Gus Atkinson nabbed him in the second. His poor form has put a lot of pressure on the other batsmen such as Mohammad Rizwan and Shan Masood.

It's really disappointed moments for Pakistani cricket team fan because they expect some good results for them but they continuously disappointing them from recent matches and going against thier expectations. I am still in shock how can they be so creepy at the same time they scored huge on same track at first inning while england does extra ordinary too but at third innings Pakistan followed his typical collapse and now they were unable to even hold his wicket to divert results from defeat to draw because if they bat long as much as possible and just filled the lead then it will be called announced draw but they lose important six wicket and now I am sure they will even able to survive till end of day 5 which indicates thier clear cut defeat which isn't acceptable.

Pakistan 1st innings 556+ England 1st innings 823
Anyone with even the slightest knowledge of one-day cricket will say that this match will definitely be a draw, but in Pakistan's case, how this match came to the brink of defeat is in no way acceptable. It is curious whether Pakistan can finally draw this match with 152 for 6. With just four wickets left with a full day and 115 runs behind, this match will be a no-go for Pakistan. It is the Pakistan team that cannot be predicted in any way because the speed of Pakistan's game can change in any direction at any moment.

The England team has made many records while playing on fourth day England batsmans played a long partnership of 454 runs which is the biggest partnership of their team in England test history. England lost three wickets for 249 runs then after that Harry brook and Joe Root played a partnership of 454 runs and put a mountain of pressure on the Pakistan team Joe Root played an innings of 262 runs while Harry Brook scored a triple century and set his highest record in tests. Pakistan bowlers could not take the all wickets then England declared their team and they scored 823 runs in first innings After building a mountain of runs in first innings England team dropped six wickets for the Pakistan team on just 152 England bowlers required four wickets tomorrow to win this match as soon as possible

Look where Pakistan scored 556 runs in the first innings despite being all out for a huge score and we all assumed this match would be a 100% draw but how the match went out of Pakistan's reach was beyond comprehension. After England declared for 823 runs, if Pakistan could have fought in a good defensive mood, there might have been a chance of a draw but Pakistan lost 6 wickets for just 152 runs in their second innings, meaning the next four batsmen could not take this match to a draw, i.e. three sessions on a fifth day Pakistan's next batsmen will not be able to overcome. As a supporter of Pakistan, I cannot accept that England will win this match even after scoring such a big score.

Root and Brook were absolutely insane together. It looked like they would help their team score 1000 runs at one stage which is bonkers if you think about it. All of their hardwork would be pointless though if the match ended in a draw.

Pakistan desperately needs a complete reset in literally every format in my honest opinion.

Pakistan team batted well in the first innings but they did not do well in bowling against England. England was able to declare 823 runs in the first innings because of Pakistan team's poor bowling. I never imagined that England batsmen can bat so well. England team players have been able to perform much better than expected. The batsmen of the England team batting with a cool head and patience is certainly admirable.
