Mohamad Rizwan is playing decently now, and I don't think that the PCB should ruin his career by overburdening him with additional responsibilities (the same thing that happened with Babar Azam). Let Sarfaraz Ahmed handle this responsibility for now, as he is more mature and experienced. I would have considered Shaheen Shah Afridi (once he is free from injury), but having a pace bowler as the captain is a bit extreme. Australia tried to do the same with Pat Cummins, and I am afraid that it is not working that well.

Shaheen Shah Afridi would have been my number 1 contender for the captaincy spot. He is a bowler and would be able to handle the pressure but injuries might hamper him as a captain.

Pakistan have already lost 5 wickets they are struggling to play spin. Both Sodhi and Bracewell have taken 2 wickets each. At this momentum Pakistan might lose this test match.

Scenario has changed completely. Pakistan started the first session decently, but now they have lost 3 additional wickets. Sarfaraz Ahmed and Saud Shakeel are at the crease now, with Agha Salman to come next. And after that the tail starts with Hasan Ali. Ish Sodhi and Michael Bracewell have picked up two wickets apiece, and Ajaz Patel has started his spell just now. 65 overs remaining in this match, and given the current circumstances it is going to be extremely difficult for Pakistan to save this match (unless bad light stops play).

I was just wondering! If Babar Azam steps down or gets sacked as the test captain who is the probable contender to replace him? I have two players in my mind. The first one is the current wicket-keeper and ex-captain of Pakistan Sarfaraz Ahmed and the second one is another wicket-keeper Mohamad Rizwan.

Who do you think can replace Babar Azam as the captain of the Test squad?

I don't think Babar Azam will step down from the captaincy. For now captaincy had never been a problem with the test squad, because somehow his performance and Rizwan's contribution will be there. He is the Pakistani cricketer who had the highest test cricket runs as captain. He had got good list of records as captain that makes his best captain in all three formats of cricket.

What can you expect from Pakistan they are good in digging their own hole. Losing two wickets for none is a disaster. Hopefully they play the full 90 overs and draw this match. Kiwis also do not have any intent of winning this match otherwise they would have stopped at 250 and given the opportunity to Pakistan batters. Another test match which might end in a draw.

LOL.. 250? 250 in 95 or so overs is just like cakewalk for Pakistan. 350 would have guaranteed a win for New Zealand or draw, but the Kiwi captain (Southee) declared with a lead of 319. Also you need to keep in mind that New Zealand is without the services of a world class spinner ever since the retirement of Daniel Vettori. Ish Sodhi, Michael Bracewell and Ajaz Patel can't be considered as reliable spinners. Given this, I would not support your argument that the Kiwis should have declared with a lead of 250. It would have been suicidal for them.

Pakistan has not been able to chase small totals like 96 runs in the past. The less the score the more mistakes Pakistan batters would have made and the more attacking would have been NZ bowlers but looks like now this match will end in a draw unless Paksitan batting collapse without any reason, which can happen in today's match. At moment I am certain that this match will end in a draw.

Both teams are playing thakela game, so far no one actually showed any intent to win and just looking for draw due to the slow pitch.

Those late 2 wickets helped Kiwis but the pitch is still way too good to bat on. Pakistan could have been in a better place if Sarfaraz was a bit more accurate behind the wickets, he's having a pathetic test match as wk.

New Zealand was aiming for the win and that is why they set up a very aggressive target of 319 runs with 90 overs remaining. Given the flat track at Karachi, it would have been relatively easy for the opposing team. But Pakistan being Pakistan, made a mess of the chase. Lost two important wickets (that of Abdullah Shafique and Mir Hamza even before they could open scoring). Still the target is achievable and the 5th day is going to be really exciting. The declaration by Tim Southee has made this test match very very interesting.

The drama never ends with this Pakistan team and they have lost two wickets in their 2nd innings without putting a single run on the board. How often do we see this happening before in a test match where a team is 2-0 ?

Both Abdullah Shafique and Mir Hamza were bowled by Sodhi and now it is almost impossible for the Pakistan team to save this test match. I don't know how Babar Azam can alone take them to victory Huh

I am baffled with the tactics from New Zealand. If they wanted to declare early, then they should have scored runs quickly. They declared their innings with a lead of just 319 runs. Kane Williamson had a strike rate of less than 40 and Henry Nicholls was even worse, although Michael Bracewell in the end spiked the scoring rate. Luckily for them, the bowlers did well yesterday and now Pakistan need that many runs with just 8 wickets in hand. But Babar Azam is yet to come and there is still a good chance for a Pakistani win.

Pitch will be difficult for batting during the first session of tomorrow. I think Pakistan players will try to play slowly in the first session to save their wickets. The chance is quite low for them to survive in the match. The betting odds for Pakistan win is above 8× now. I don't see the possibilities of draw in this match. New Zealand is pretty much ahead to win it.

The pitch will be really difficult to bat and Pakistan already lost 2 wickets without even scoring any runs and it will be a really difficult period for the batsman if they are planning to defend and slow down the match and Babar Azam needs to play a longer innings. I already placed a bet on draw no bet on New Zealand winning the match and will see how this one turns out Grin

Confident performance from New Zealand. The second innings from New Zealand was declared at 277 runs losing 5 wickets. Pakistan needs 319 runs to win the match. It looked to be reachable target, but the bowlers from New Zealand is quite confident and have taken the wicket of Shafique and Hamza before starting the scorecard. Just a day left and two teams have the chance of winning the match. Lets wait and watch for the result.

Just a day left and two teams have the chance of winning the match. Lets wait and watch for the result.

I think it's not look like a big score for Pakistani batter because in previous inning they almost score 400+ so if they hold Thier nerves they are on driving seat to win this second test, kiwi play a good inning but unfortunately no one build a strong partnership, now Imam and S.Masood are on crease , Imam are in really good form hope he will easily score a starting century which may boost Pakistani batter moral, now they has 9 wicket in hand so we can expect a easy win from Pakistan

Pakistan already lost 2 wickets on 0 runs how will they chase this score Tomorrow with this batting. Pakistan can win this match but with this batting this is not possible.
Newzealand on other hand are very confident and playing very good on both sides .
Let's see how things will turn out .

Pakistan lost two wickets for nil run which is a shame for them and they need 319 runs to win this match. But they have only 8 wickets left so there are doubts whether they can make this run. I thought Pakistan would beat New Zealand in this test match, but seeing their poor performance, my confidence is going down a lot. New Zealand played very well anyway let's see what the final result of the game is at the last moment

On day 5, Pakistan must score 319 runs to win, but only eight wickets remain. Not everyone is capable of chasing down 300+ on the fifth day. It's sad, but Pakistan still sticks with Babar Azam. Babar Azam's performance totally determines the outcome if he plays well. Unless Pakistan suffer another home series loss. A draw would be a great achievement for Pakistan, but New Zealand should go all the way for the win.

Babar Azam is the last hope for Pakistan so if Babar Azam can finish the game with good scores then Pakistan will be able to win but till now New Zealand are far ahead and they have a lot of potential to win. So I am very much confused about the score of this match till now but it looks like New Zealand might have a chance to win this match. Because scoring 319 runs is very difficult for 8 wickets

Scoring 319 runs in 1 day and 8 wickets is not Pakistan's deal as their batting line-up is failing continuously since long time so this is Newzealand win tomorrow. Babar Azam can support his team but he cannot chase such big runs realistically .

Till now Pakistan is far behind New Zealand but 8 wickets is a big support so till now Pakistan can't be underestimated and Pakistan can't be left out of the list of winning chances so we have to wait till tomorrow to get the actual result. Although it is not possible for Babar Azam to collect so many runs alone. So some of the other players have to perform very well for the team to win

New Zealand captain Tim Southee announced the second innings after scoring 277 runs for 5 wickets. Chasing the run, Pakistan is in danger after losing 2 wickets in 2.5 overs. The thing is that they have lost 2 wickets for 0 runs. No one expected this kind of cricket from Pakistan. If Pakistani players are only playing defensively then why would be the wicket like this? Maybe Pakistan cricket can not answer it.

I thought Pakistan would beat New Zealand in this test match, but seeing their poor performance, my confidence is going down a lot. New Zealand played very well anyway let's see what the final result of the game is at the last moment

Confident performance from New Zealand. The second innings from New Zealand was declared at 277 runs losing 5 wickets. Pakistan needs 319 runs to win the match. It looked to be reachable target, but the bowlers from New Zealand is quite confident and have taken the wicket of Shafique and Hamza before starting the scorecard. Just a day left and two teams have the chance of winning the match. Lets wait and watch for the result.

I think it's not look like a big score for Pakistani batter because in previous inning they almost score 400+ so if they hold Thier nerves they are on driving seat to win this second test, kiwi play a good inning but unfortunately no one build a strong partnership, now Imam and S.Masood are on crease , Imam are in really good form hope he will easily score a starting century which may boost Pakistani batter moral, now they has 9 wicket in hand so we can expect a easy win from Pakistan

Pakistan already lost 2 wickets on 0 runs how will they chase this score Tomorrow with this batting. Pakistan can win this match but with this batting this is not possible.
Newzealand on other hand are very confident and playing very good on both sides .
Let's see how things will turn out .
