Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]

[Danica22]

Mohammad Abbas, after a long time back into the Pakistani team, has 5 wickets. In reply, debutant Azan and Imam have a century stand.

Today Azan Awais with an extraordinary knock, he played this innings totally on merit. Came as the opener and from the first ball till the last ball his attitude of defending the ball and looking for runs, playing quality cricket was totally the same and this leads to a great innings. At the same time, Imam Ul Haq played well with him. He provided an essential start too but when he gets out, Azan Awais carry the momentum and did not feel anything different with the new partner.

I did not get a chance to watch the match live. I was very surprised after checking the scoreboard a while ago. Bangladesh team has managed to collect 400+. At the same time, Pakistani batsmen have also batted well on the second day. Pakistan has batted 46 overs and lost only one wicket. Perfect batting of the Test match. Azan and Abdullah are now at the crease. Azan has collected 85 runs and Abdullah has collected 37 runs. But Pakistan is still trailing by a big margin of 234 runs. If Pakistan can start well in the first session of the next day, then collecting around 500 will not be a difficult task for them.

Yes Pakistan is fighting back very well as they have end the day at 179/1 .Azan awais a young player play beautiful today and is 85 not out near to his debut century pakistani batsmans looks very comfortable and trail by 234 runs with 9 wickets still in hand Pakistan need to bat properly on day 3

Bangladesh batsmen have batted quite well on the 1st day. But there is no possibility for them to score around 600 runs. They might score around 450 runs in the 1st innings. There could be a batting collapse of Bangladesh on day 2. The middle order has done so well today. The pitch may remain batting friendly till the end of day 3 here. I'm also expecting a good batting performance from Pakistan in the 1st innings.

the test series between Bangladesh and Pakistan has been started and at the end of the day one Bangladesh scores three hundred and one runs with the lost of four wickets. Pakistan won the toss and elected to field first and Bangladesh opens innings first but the openers was not in good form and don't put a good start for the team but in middle order Najmul Hussain Shanto was in great form and showing his experience by putting a impactful century and also Mominul Haque played a remarkable knock but unfortunately misses his century by just nine runs and Bangladesh lost just four wickets at the end of the day one. Pakistan thinks that  grassy pitch is supporting to fast bowling and some this plan is work but Pakistani pacers showing very poor bowling with wrong length and low pace and day one is not in the favor of Pakistani pacers.

If we look at the first test in which Bangladesh took the first innings and made 413, then this is a very tough target. In which the performance of the players is mentioned, the name of Najmul Hossain Shanto comes up, who scored 101 runs, and in addition, Mominul Haque scored 91 runs, and the rest together handled the first innings very well. On the other hand, the Pakistan team also played very well and now this match has been stumped and will be restarted tomorrow at 9 o'clock. Azan Awais, who scored 85 runs and was out, was the only player who was playing who has scored a total of 179 run so far but at that time the match has been stopped but the Pakistan team still needs 234 run to chase their target.Now we will see whether the Pakistan team will be able to achieve the target they have taken or not.

Bangladesh scored 413 runs in the first inning good batting from Captain Shanto and good support from Momin and Mushi. Pakistani bowlers did a good job with the tailenders and settled things quickly.

Mohammad Abbas, after a long time back into the Pakistani team, has 5 wickets. In reply, debutant Azan and Imam have a century stand.

This gives a good start, but there is still plenty to come as Bangladesh brings in Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who gives a breakthrough, and Imam, who is gone on 45 after having 106 runs with debutant Azan, who is still on the crease after scoring fifty.

This match was played between Pakistan and Bangladesh in which Bangladesh has set a very high score target while playing their first innings which was a bit difficult and challenging target for Pakistan because they have made a very good score while keeping themselves strong. Almost all their players have made a very high score and have kept their batting strong. From their team, Najmul Hossain Shanto has completed his century by scoring 103 and with him, Mominul Haque has scored 91 but failed to complete his century but still they have made a good score for their team. If we look at their opponent team which is Pakistan team, they have scored 179 runs while chasing the target and playing their first innings which is a very low score compared to their team. Pakistan players also made a good score in inning

In the Mirpur match, I have seen big collections in very few matches. The pitch of this match is probably not bowling friendly. Bangladeshi batsmen played quite well. Now Pakistani batsmen are also able to play well. In the past years, we have seen that it is a very difficult task to collect such big collections on the Mirpur pitch.

This pitch of Mirpur is going to be so good for the spins as the game progress as today we have seen an amazing spin by Mehidy Hasan Miraz and more than half of the credit goes to the pitch condition. Right now here is day 02 and when it will the day five or day four the pitch becomes even more hard for the batsmen to judge the spin balls.

That's why spinners need to practice to twist the ball and the remaining can be easily done by the pitch, for example, a pitch not supporting bounce to spin balls, which results in a mismatch for the batsmen to judge and leading to the loss of wickets.

If Pakistan can start well in the first session of the next day, then collecting around 500 will not be a difficult task for them.

Today, when Bangladesh got all out at 413 runs, almost everyone thought that Pakistan's batsmen might be pressurized or collapse, because as we can see in the previous few years, the Pakistan batting standard has gone so low that's why.

By the way, we should be precise to Imam Ul haq because earlier he was struggling, facing trouble that time, I was thinking that he was about to get out anytime soon but it was good approach to prefer runs over blocking the ball.

Today at the end of the day of Pakistan and Bangladesh test game Pakistan trail by two thirty four runs with the lost of just one wicket. As we know at the end of the day one Bangladesh lost four wickets and they start day two with Mushfiqur Rahim and Litton Das and both the batters are most experienced and Mushfiqur Rahim was very effective in this game and put his half century by scoring seventy plus runs and Bangladesh scores four hundred plus runs in first inning. Then Pakistan starts first inning with Imam ul Haq and Azan Awais and Azan Awais was incredible on his debue game and scores eighty plus runs and remains not out and at the end of day two Pakistan just lost one wickets and scores one seventy nine runs.

At the same time, Azan Awais was playing smart cricket, he is a batting with no slogging and not much fancy shots. When the balls comes in slot and easy to hit or you can say whenever bowler makes the mistake, he always take the advantage else otherwise no way he would take any risk and this is quality game play. At one stage, there were three slips placed by the Bangladesh team to trap Azan Awais forcing him to play outside but Azan was with calm mindset, not looking for any risk but when it comes in range, he always hit well.

Yes, the way Bangladesh batsmen played very well and with effort, due to which their target was made up to 413 and this is also good and strong for their victory as long as they effort with good and hard bowling. On the contrary, Pakistan is also working hard and effort to prove something good in this match. So they have scored 179 runs in 46 overs and if they do not go towards negligence, then this first innings target can be achieved. Awais is not out yet and if they continue to play slowly like this, they can achieve the target. Bangladesh should play with full effort so that they can win but Pakistan will succeed by controlling this match with their strength and effort. There is interest in this match because there is a lot of good effort from both sides and this is impressive for us.

Bangladesh scored 413 runs in the first inning good batting from Captain Shanto and good support from Momin and Mushi. Pakistani bowlers did a good job with the tailenders and settled things quickly.

There is no doubt that Bang batted aggressively and made Pak nervous in the first innings but I think this goal is acceptable in Test games.Pak can achieve this goal if they want.When Bang lost the first two wickets early Pak was sure that they would see a very small target but this performance of Bang was not expected.Bang surprised everyone that they are still a tough team but sometimes they become weak.One of the Bang player completed a century and the other players scored 91 runs and fell victim to the ball of Noman Ali and he missed out on completing a century.Talking about Pak main player Babar Azam is not included in this Test match owing to which there is a fear that Pak will not be weak in the Test game.

Bangladesh performance in form where they have rarely been consistent is impressive. Their domestic system has now started to provide them with mentally strong players, as ceding early wickets mostly means they collapse, but not this time. Breakthrough of Noman Ali was vital but Bangladesh middle order contribution to game was important as it means they are not just padding out Test cricket bill anymore.
I think it is big psychological void in Pakistan lineup which youngsters need to quickly bridge. If few wickets go down, it is far more difficult to hold up fourth innings with absence of that experienced stabiliser. Bangladesh have utilised scoreboard pressure to their best advantage and now it is down to Pakistan middle order to demonstrate their ability to cope with pressure without their key players.

[Sithara007]

Looks like the pitch at Mirpur is not as bad as I thought. Pakistani batsmen (especially Azan Awais and Abdullah Fazal) treated Bangladesh bowlers with absolute disdain. And it was the pacer Taskin Ahmed who pulled back things at least partially for Bangladesh. The spinners (Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Taijul Islam) completely failed, apart from the lone wicket of Imam-ul-Haq. Today is the third day, and chances are that the match will end up as a draw. Pakistan is likely to get to a total of 500 plus, as they have 7 more wickets remaining. Shan Masood just got out, but they have Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Rizwan and Salman Agha up next.

Today at the end of the day of Pakistan and Bangladesh test game Pakistan trail by two thirty four runs with the lost of just one wicket. As we know at the end of the day one Bangladesh lost four wickets and they start day two with Mushfiqur Rahim and Litton Das and both the batters are most experienced and Mushfiqur Rahim was very effective in this game and put his half century by scoring seventy plus runs and Bangladesh scores four hundred plus runs in first inning. Then Pakistan starts first inning with Imam ul Haq and Azan Awais and Azan Awais was incredible on his debue game and scores eighty plus runs and remains not out and at the end of day two Pakistan just lost one wickets and scores one seventy nine runs.

Well, in this day we have a lot of things to discuss. The positive thing that Azan Awais played an innings of 85, not out. He ended up making 103 runs before he got out. He scored his first international century, before that in the first class cricket he had 10 centuries and was a great player in domestic. By the way it feels like an ODI game, because the way Azan Awais and Imam started was excellent. Let's see how the remaining Pakistan batsmen play today, they are 220 for two wickets down.
