That is what happens when you have faith in your team. I am curious what you thought when India collapsed in the first innings. I guess the odds were juicer at that time. It's the end of day three, and India is well behind but lost three wickets so far. Now, day number four will turn the game more into one side. If India manages to bat the whole three sessions, then they may gather some good runs. Yet, I am pretty sure India is going to lose this match.
We may see batting failure of New Zealand if India somehow manages to take a good lead tomorrow by playing the whole day. India has made a great comeback today. Still, New Zealand is favourite to win the match. The chance is very low for India to take a good lead. They won't be able to restrict New Zealand with a small target.

This was my reaction after watching 2 overs of the Indian first inning but tbh I wasn't expecting such a collapse because India do have a long batting lineup, sometimes you have to give credit to the opposition. Yes, conditions were favoring seamers but Kiwis did bowl some outstanding spells. Overall I was too busy with the meltdown so didn't check the odds.
Ben choo why does it feel like they brought this pitch directly from England? I know it's overcast but the ball is swinging and seaming way too much. I don't see our openers to survive for long.
Tomorrow 1st hour of the first session will be crucial and if India manages to score 70-90 runs without losing a single wicket then it's a game on and pressure will be on New Zealand.
The priority should be avoiding an Inning defeat which was looking tough, considering the lead was massive but now it's in the range so that's a relief.

Nice to see Pakistan win a test. Pakistan ways have a nice team but they lack execution. Even in this test match I believed Pakistan were going to lose as all England needed to win on the 2nd innings was 297. They would have won it of they had collected 297 before all their wickets fell but the England's wicket fell sooner letting Pakistan win it by a good run margin. Sajid Khan was the prime bowling force for Pakistan in 1st innings taking 7 wickets while Noman Ali had been the hero for Pakistan in the second innings. He alone took 8 wickets in the inning.
The series is now 1-1 and the final test would determine the winner
Yeah In second test game, pakistan beat England with big runs. Pakistan batsman makes 366 run in first inning and england batsman makes 291 run in first inning and lose the match. Then in the second innings, Pakistan batsmen scored 221 runs and England batsmen scored 144 runs. England batsmen did not play well in this match due to which they faced defeat. Salman had the most runs in Pakistan's second innings scored 63 runs off 89 balls. Kamran Ghulam scored 26 runs off 39 balls. The high number of runs in England second innings was Ben Stokes who score 37 runs in 36 ball. Next were those of Brydon carse who score 27 runs off 32 balls. The main role in Pakistan victory is their bowlers Sajid and Nouman who took all wickets and put England under pressure which led to their defeat. The series is now 1-1 and the final test would determine the winner

I am surprised by the score because such a performance structure of the Indian team is not seen normally. They have just won the Test series against Bangladesh at their own ground. They are more powerful in their own venues. But their performance against New Zealand was not as expected. A major collapse by the Indian team in the first innings will be a reason for the loss of the match. However, in the 2nd innings, India play responsibly. They have managed to save themselves from disaster. India have managed to score 121 runs in the 2nd innings with the loss of just 2 wickets. I believe if they can learn from the mistakes of the previous match then they can definitely hold a relatively good position in this match.If India could have collected even close to 200 in the first innings, the match could have been very competitive. Even India would have won. But India mustered only 46 runs. And that's why I don't see a chance for India to win even if they do well in the second innings. If India can score 600+ in their second innings then the match will be competitive again.
New Zealand team managed to take a huge lead of 356 runs. India are batting quite well in their second innings. India managed to collect 231 runs by losing only 3 wickets. But I guess India will probably lose all wickets before 450. Still the Indian team is 125 runs behind New Zealand. If New Zealand team is given a target of 100/150 runs, there is no chance of India winning.

Despite losing the first match against England by a big margin, Pakistan team will probably be able to win the second match. One of the reasons for Pakistan's defeat in the first match was the very poor bowling of the bowlers. But in the second match we can see some excellent bowling from the Pakistani bowlers. This is why the chances of Pakistan winning are high.
Pakistan team collected 366 runs in the first innings. It cannot be called a large collection. However, due to the controlled bowling of the Pakistani bowlers, England managed to collect 291 runs in the first innings. In the second innings, the Pakistani batsmen scored 221 runs and managed to set a decent target of 297 runs.
England are not able to do well in the second innings. England team lost 6 wickets to collect only 88 runs. Now England's collection is 96 runs after losing 6 wickets. England need 201 more runs to win.
Yes, you're right Pakistan Outstanding comeback after loosing first test match against England. Pakistan very closed to win this test match after very long time loosing back to back 6 test matches in this test championship. Pakistan need just 3 wickets to win this match and level the series with 1-1. England current score is 125 runs in a loss of 7 wickets. they needs 172 runs to win it but it's very difficult for england because only three wickets in hand. Pakistan spin bowling is impressive especially Noman Ali picked fifer in fouth inning of test match and Sajad Khan also bowl well pick up 2 important wickets and they needs one more wicket to complete his ten wickets in this test match.

In the end, the Pakistan team was able to defeat the England team. I would say Pakistan was able to win the match due to the outstanding performance of the bowlers. The main reason for Pakistan's defeat in the first match was the poor bowling of the bowlers. Pakistan could have won the match if the bowlers bowled well. At the same time, if the Pakistani batsmen could have batted well in the second innings, the match would have been a draw.
However, the Pakistani batsmen's performance in the second match was average. But the Pakistani bowlers bowled brilliantly. Sajid Khan and Noman Ali in particular bowled brilliantly. Sajid Khan took 9 wickets and Noman Ali 11 wickets. Pakistan won because of the performance of these two bowlers.
Really sucks to see the run machine fall on literally the last ball of the day, but he batted responsibly and scored enough in my opinion. If India keeps batting like this, a draw is very, very likely unless the conditions change again.
Also, congratulations Pakistan on winning the second test, but the decider is the final test and I feel that the odds are evenly balanced between them now.
Virat Kohli's wicket on the last ball of the day is really bad news for India. Virat Kohli was a set batsman and if he could have batted on the fourth day with wickets on the day's game, the result of the match could have changed. However, Indian batsmen's consistent style of running is much better so all those who are left to bat till now have good batting experience so the result of the match is likely to be a draw. If India can bat tomorrow and give a lead of 290 to 300 runs, then of course if India can bowl well then maybe the match can be won by India. Also, congratulations Pakistan on winning the second test, but the decider is the final test and I feel that the odds are evenly balanced between them now.

India is doing much better on the second innings. Though the record low on home ground would haunt them but they still have a chance to draw or even with this test. Even though 3 of the batsmen are gone, India still has a deep batting lineup and if they don't fall like cards in 1st innings, they could make a difference. They are trailing by 125 runs at the moment and have 7 more wickets to play. They'd try to bat all of the 4th day and set a decent target for New Zealand to follow but if all the wickets fell before the end of next day, New Zealand would look to chase it down.
The Indian team performed very badly in the first innings of the first match, in the second innings, the Indian team gave a patient batting performance. So far 222 runs have been exchanged for 2 wickets, with Virat Kohli and Sarfaraz Khan at the current crease.
Although Virat Kohli and Sarfaraz Khan scored zero runs in the first innings, they scored half-centuries in this match and the batting performance is on target.
Although Virat Kohli and Sarfaraz Khan scored zero runs in the first innings, they scored half-centuries in this match and the batting performance is on target.
New Zealand is favorite for that match because they scored going target on board and Indian team played very bad in first inning and all team out by making only 46 runs and they did good come back but they should draw this match but that is looking impossible for Indian team to draw this match because New Zealand team has good bowlers who will do attacking bowling tomorrow and they will try to all team out within tomorrow.
Now Sarfraz Khan is on the crease and he will be out in first overs because he will be not manage the bowling of pacers. Indian all team collapse in first inning and they lose temperament and we saw less situation in which Indian team played like that but they have to work more on these limitations.

Noman Ali got the last wicket and the Pakistan has won the game. Sajid Khan was named as the player of the game. What a changing decision is it. In the first innings, the Pakistan team scored well made 336 and then when England's batting came they were confident because they had won the last game but they forgot this time there were Sajid Khan and Noman.
These Pakistan bowlers did not let England's team settle and they were unable to chase the target and they both picked all wickets at 291 meanwhile Pakistan was in the lead then Pakistan batted the second innings without any tension because they knew they had good bowlers who will defend any score.

Well after long duration of more than 2 year defeats run finally Pakistan able to won a test match on home ground and that really huge moments for them which they should celebrate because no one predict thier next match results as they have history to mostly shock viewers in several ways, so the things is they has to play thier third match in pindi stadium which were known graveyard of bowlers so management were thinking to convert into into spin friendly track so that they continue thier winning streak in test format and Atleast register his series victory at home ground after long long time. Anyway for that victory credit fully goes to spin duo Sajid and noman because they were the one through which Pakistan saw dream of victory. At the end Congratulations to them for thier big meaningful victory

Today after a long time, we have seen Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli while making a partnership together. This time, Virat Kohli was dismissed at the end of the day and scored a good score of 70 runs. He missed his century by a 30 run but he played well today. However, India would have loved to see him on the 4th day but not the case this time.
However, India is doing very well. In bowling they were facing trouble but now in batting they are doing good. New Zealand bowlers became over confident after bowling out all Indian team at 46 but now India is fully prepared and so far just losing three wickets. I hope tomorrow India will get a good lead towards the win. You never know how this test match can yet again change.
In the first innings we saw India suffer a terrible batting disaster. It was completely unexpected. Indian batsmen were able to collect only 46 runs. Indian batsmen can not crease against New Zealand's pace bowlers. But India is batting very responsibly in the second innings.
At the end of the third day, India managed to collect 231 runs with the loss of only three wickets. Sarfaraz Khan remains unbeaten with 70 runs from 78 balls. Virat Kohli scored 70 runs, Rohit Sharma got out after collecting 52 runs. India got off to a good start. However, India is still behind by a big margin of 125 runs. I don't think it will be possible for India to deliver a big target. The New Zealand team was able to take a huge lead of 356 runs.

Finally, Pakistan secured a comfortable win in the second Test match against England. It is most likely that Pakistan won a Test match after 16 consecutive matches.
Some of the players in the team had consistently performed poorly so the Pakistan Cricket Board was forced to change several key players from this core team of Pakistan and this change helped them win against England. But it can be said that the player who was replaced by Babar Azam played his best and due to his excellent performance Pakistan won.
Congratulations to Pakistan for pulling off a great win against England, hope they continue to be more consistent from now on.

Rohit was looking so good, then gets dismissed worst way possible. Jaiswal should calm down his nerves a bit, he threw away his wicket. Hopefully, Pant will be ready to bat tomorrow, team needs him, and hopefully KL clicks too — it's test match, and your home ground, what more do you need?
Virat's wicket on the last ball washed away all the happiness fans had with his and Sarfaraz's partnership.

Pakistan team has won by a huge margin of 152 runs, Pakistan has done a great bowling performance in today's match. Noman Ali bowled an amazing line which resulted in picking up 8 wickets, his bowling performance today is really to be commended. Anyway we have seen that first test match England team won, and they went ahead in the series result, but Pakistan team won the second test match and tied the result 1-1. Now the third test match will be the most interesting, both the teams will fight enough for this match to win the series, only those who can play well will be the series winners.
