1. Pakistan(83 pts) are 6th on the Test ranking list. If oz's(116) lose to them then they will lose points for sure.
I just don't understand how this Ranking system works for eg:, like the Tennis rankings.

2. Ada paravaala sollunga.

Lets see - if my theory comes out true at the end of the career of both these gentlemen, I'll probably choose to say it then.
3. This wicket should still help Paki's bowling. BTW, I saw Australia's 1st innings. Superb bowling by Sami upfront backed up by asif .

Considering where they were at tea, Pakistan should have kept more wickets intact. Nevertheless they are still sitting pretty with 200 odd runs lead. Considering Pakistan's mercurial batting lineup (even with the presence of prodigious Umar Akmal notwithstanding), they shouldn't fancy chasing anything more than 100 if they were to win this Test.

It's lot more easier for Aussies to bat today on bright/sunny conditions compared to day 1. Pakistan should try and restrict Aussies to 300-350. Give these Aussies slightest room for come back they know how to apply pressure even with a small target to defend against an ever flaky Pakistani batting line up.
Chak de Pakistan.

105/0. As expected Pakis failed to wrest the initiative
Oops 105/1 now. Very good catch by Kaneria to dismiss Hughes
Come on, take down pricky please!

Good return catch. Tall man Kaneria has a much farther reach. As the saying goes, bowlers tend to catch well of their own bowling. Chak de Pakistan
