Overall I would say that it was a Pakistani team day. They not only took five wickets on a batting track but also bowled well. Australian team only managed to make 232 runs in 88 overs at a slow run rate. I am not saying that Pakistan will win the match from here but if we only look at the test match day by day, the first day truly belong to the Paksitani team.

Good day for Pakistan team. The early two wickets taken by Shaheen Shah was a wonderful break through. He looked so happy. But I feel the series will end in drawn series. But we watched some good cricket from both the teams. Looking fwd to the second day. Hope Pindiwals are not much upset for not having match in Rawalpindi

LAhori seems so excited for hosting the series!

In Pakistan case, it's same happening with Pakistan is already in some good position for qualifying into WTC final and staying at second spot behind Australia they need some more points for this spot which is only possible with these flat pitches with Australia is currently world's most attractive and best team in presence of quality batsmen and bowlers and Pakistani youths have no good experience to face them, so they are doing these dirty tactics for WTC points and staying alive against quality teams.

The second test between West Indies and England has ended as a draw too. It was meant to be happen. But I think, the third test match between Pakistan and Australia isn't going to end as a draw. Maybe there will be a winner of the last test match of this series, and it will determine the series winner. How long Pakistan will be able to stay at second position for making those flat pitch! They should have made an average pitch which would help both bowlers and batsmen. Pakistani players are having some good batting practice for those kind of pitch. They won't be able to play well in different pitch condition.

Shaheen Shah did take two early wickets but it was very early in the match. Now the things have settled and also the pitch look good for batting. Its too early to say who will win the match or whether this will be another draw.

Edit: Smith is gone. Will this be a turning point in the match?

Five wickets gone. Pakistan have got important wikcets of khawaja and smith. Still I would say Australia are in good position as they have scored 211 runs and if they can make 300 ( which surely they will) then Aussies bowlers have a great chance to take lead in first innings.
In this series many players are victim of nervous 90s. Khawaja is the latest one.

As the series decider test match against Pakistan approaches, Australia has won the toss and chosen to bat first. How do you think the series will turn out?

Pakistan replaces Faheem Ashraf with Naseem Shah; but Australia remain unchanged. The match will demonstrate that Pakistan can beat Australia. For the first day of a test match, the pitch should provide more for bowlers. Here we go. Australians are 8/2, and Sahin Afridi has the early break.

Seems like Australia have recovered after two early wickets. Usman khawaja is in no mood of showing mercy to his country of birth as he is not out on 47 along with Smith on 41. I haven't seen the pitch so far just checked the score online, I am hopeful this match will be a decider. Let's wait for score till stumps.

An exciting beginning from Shaheen Shah, this is called class. After the loss of early wickets, the partnership between Usman Khawaja and Steve Smith discharge the headache of batting unit. Both are talented players, they take the responsibility and their third wickets stand has reinforced Australia. Khawaja well played in the subcontinent however it's unfortunate it's just 9 run short before celebrating century he got out.

Lahoris so excited on the return of Test match to the Qadafi stadium. Shaheen Shah gave a good break through by sending two batsmen back to the dressing room Labuschagne was surprised too on what has happened to him. But I believe the series will end in draw. Let's see!

Most of the people bet on either side win.The Australian fans bet on Australia and Pakistan fans bet on pakistan. But their is only one winner for the game.No one will bed on draw case.It's cloud nine moment of the cricket match. In additional, it's a common one in the test match.Eventhough people will not bed on a draw match.In this match, most of the people who do bet may had huge chance of loss of money.

Latest update: The test cricket returned to Qadafi Stadium after 13 year.Aussie are going to bat first. The pitch seem to have a bit of moisture, Pakistan must gain some wickets with new ball to break the partnership of Aussie strong batting line. If Aussie makes huge score like before it will be difficult for Pakistani to win the series. Do you think bring Faheem Ashraf instead of Naseem shah is a good decision?

Test cricket already does not have too many spectators or fans. and if this continues the fans for spectator Count is obviously going to decline further, this is obviously not good for test cricket. I really thought Pakistan had the ability to give Australia a good fight on a good bowling pitch but I think they just did not want to take that chance.

The defensive stance taken by the PCB (with regards to the pitch preparation) is above all an insult to the Pakistani bowlers. By preparing such sub-standard pitches, the PCB is indirectly hinting that their bowlers don't have the ability to take wickets in good tracks, and they are inferior to their Australian counterparts. This actually surprises me because for long Pakistan was considered as the pace powerhouse of South Asia. A lot many legendary pacers, including Shoaib Akhtar, Wasim Akram, Imran Khan, Aaquib Javed and Waqar Younis represented Pakistan in the past.

This is very good calculation.

Australia : They seems favoraite to play in the WTC finals but they have atleast 7 tough games against India and South Africa (Proteas always play excellent cricket in Australia). OZ need to tread carefully with these 2 series and then may be try not to be complacent against SL on spin track.

South Africa: Protea has a potiential, atm they are playing against Bangladesh with their 2nd string team due to IPL. Hope this doesn't comes back to haunt them.

Pakistan : Strong candidate, if they manage to produce result oriented pitches. If every home game is ending with draw then they have no chance.

India : Tricky and tight situation because of Australia but they are still hanging there. Aussie are always tough opponent, ideal situation would be 3-1 or 3-0 to India. Different outcome could potentially dent India's dream. Hope Bangladesh series goes well for India, lot will depend on rain. Also 1 tough away game in England, poms seems to getting their act together.

SL and NZ are more or less on the same boat.

Most chances we will have no positive results from these both series because currently West Indies is in not good shape, and they are bringing flat pitches for having some better results for their team instead of supportive their quality is not good enough for facing England.

The match ended in a draw but what is striking is that apart from Kraigg Brathwaite no one the players were able to play for a longer period of time which means if England would have give a target of 240 runs to chase or 10 more overs left then there was a chance for them to pick the rest of the wickets and may be probably win the match.

Remainder of the series will be exactly the same. Pakistan knows that they don't have the capability to defeat Australia. So they played defensively and asked the curator to prepare a dead track, which offer no support for the bowlers. Same was the case with the West Indians. They also aimed for a draw, and they got that in the end. The only ones who are losing out here are the spectators. They are spending so much money and time to watch these matches and what are they getting in return? A few matches that end with no result?

Either way it is good to see teams touring Pakistan after a long gap and now only India is the only country that is not interested to tour Pakistan and that too due to political reason. The fans would love to see the match either way and i did not see any highlights either but how are the crowds in Pakistan, are the stadiums getting full.

Today as we started fifth and final day of this second test match between West Indies vs England after having some good and quick batting from English batsmen there were good criticism about these tactics that they can lose this match but now after just 25 overs it seems very good decision because Leach and Mahmood done good job and remover three batsmen very quickly now West Indies is in defense with two first inning centurions at crease and trying their best for survive of remaining match with now 40 overs left in this match if England takes one or two more wickets than surely we can feel some more thrill in this match otherwise it's all going to be drawn again on flat pitch and bad tactics from West Indians they need to be more supportive for better results in future.

The general consensus here is that the third Test between Pakistan and Australia will end up in a draw, anyone placing a bet on a drawn series. I have to check the odds for that before placing a bet, not sure how the match will go and if they are preparing flat wickets even for the final Test then both the batsman will score plenty of runs and they will draw the series and both teams will be happy Cheesy

.

I will keep that in mind. Pakistani doesn't disappoint their guests. Now they don't want to lose the match either and don't want to disappoint the guests as well. Well predicted. My sixth sense was also giving me the same kind of ideas. I would ALSO LIKE to bet on a draw series. But what Pakistani batsman did on the last was super Amazing.

Right now too much talk about this series and now about this last test match with this all now I am also feeling we can face something special or have this decider could be in good and positive way because after have two first test matches as draw peoples are badly disappointed and want something positive before we have three ODI and one T20.

But, as you and few others feeling they will never disappoint their guests it's also case, so we have to wait for this test match and then going for betting is better decision because in test match we have some good chances for getting good odds and placing bets on our desired results. There was a chance for Australia in the second match, but a bad decision ruined this, and now they are feeling bad about this all.

^^ Australia tour of Pakistan and England tour of West Indies are the two series that had pitches that are not helping the bowlers in a long time, any series before that we used to see results and if the match ends up in a draw it would be a competitive one. This is a rare series and hopefully we will see competitive pitches in the upcoming matches. England and West Indies will end up in a draw, Australia and Pakistan ended in a draw. Lets see how the rest of the series goes.

Most chances we will have no positive results from these both series because currently West Indies is in not good shape, and they are bringing flat pitches for having some better results for their team instead of supportive their quality is not good enough for facing England.
In Pakistan case, it's same happening with Pakistan is already in some good position for qualifying into WTC final and staying at second spot behind Australia they need some more points for this spot which is only possible with these flat pitches with Australia is currently world's most attractive and best team in presence of quality batsmen and bowlers and Pakistani youths have no good experience to face them, so they are doing these dirty tactics for WTC points and staying alive against quality teams.

I think in West Indies' case it makes sense but in Pakistan's case, it really doesn't. I think they had the quality and players to face Australia. I really expected Pakistan to give them a good fight but I really didn't think they will just pussy out and make flat pitches to go for the draw.
