Why is it only Eng and Pak teams that make their followers panic so often about potential 4th innings collapses ?

Great win .
I can't help but be surprised just how ineffective Shah has been in the first two tests . Sydney will probably turn , surely he'll come good then ?

Wonder if Pakistan fans are still claiming a moral victory from brisbane?

I would have hence I had a punt on the aussies. I'm sure a few pak players also did the same.

They lost 10 wickets on a road in nz and they've done the same here

Typical Pakistan

Praised for their "heroics" in the previous test match, even though they ended up losing that (after a meek first innings batting display).. And they follow it up with a performance like this where they lose when losing was the hardest thing to do.

A yo yo team for a long time, hence always entertaining to watch  :D

Wonder if its a case of wholesale changes for the last test for Pakistan?

Nothing really to play for. Maybe look to make the changes with one eye on the future...

Left arm spinner in for Yasir?
Sharjeel in for Younis?
Mo Riz in for Saf? Possibly to act as a reminder to Saf, that no ones place is guaranteed.

Interesting stats.. Smith is averaging 73.71 as captain. Second to Bradman at 101.51 out of 85 captains who have scored at least 1000 runs.

Scored 3634 in 33 tests since 2014 which is only 5 runs behind Root at 3639 from 38 tests.

Smiths average at the MCG is 114.60.

Smith only the 2nd Australian batsman who has scored 1000+ test runs 3 consecutive calendar years only bettered by Hayden who scored 1000+ runs in 5 consecutive calendar years.
