Should’ve let him get 400 - not like this match is going to go 5 days. Feasted on the worst pak bowling line up

Looks a completely different pitch now with aus bowling

My feelings are that the aussie dressing room don’t like him no matter what they say when questioned and just couldn’t bare the thought of him holding the test record.

So declared accordingly.


 No other reason to declare yet against such a poor Pakistan side!

My initial thought too. Bet he was pissed at the declaration.

Tbh yes Paine/Langer might dislike Warner - but IMO the highest individual score is one of the most pointless and meaningless record. For example Lara’s 400 either side of it Windies lost 0-3 at home and 0-4 away to England. So what did 400* really achieve aside from pad up the average?

Steven Smith raced to 7000 test runs in a mere 126 innings - a world record which had stood for over 70 years.

He could have gotten the record before the end of day 2. Still three days to bowl out a feeble Pakistan side twice. Lara’s efforts, whilst amazing, took quite a while, eliminated any result but a draw, and were all about personal glory.

600 on the board
Approaching the notoriously hard to bad twilight session
Rain interruptions forecast over the next few days.

Three pretty sound reasons to justify the declaration. But lets not let common sense get in the way of a good David Warner hating sesh :D

Would’ve taken him another 10 overs to get to 400
They still would’ve had 20+ overs at Pakistan under lights.

Paine was probably eager to bat himself against this bowling line up, might’ve actually got some runs

The real question is should Paine enforced the follow on, or bat again just to add further humiliation for the tourists

Pretty incredible concept isn't it. A game plan based around team success and not individual milestones.

Yep your right. your bowlers aren’t good enough to go though this Pakistan in normal conditions, you need the lights to do it.

Had warner got 408*, Aussies would then have struggled and it would have petered into a draw..........






Nobody will remember this game, it’ll be another walk over that is forgotten. Had warner broke the record, regardless of result it would have been talked about for years.

You must have missed Babar and Rizwan's last innings.  If a timely declaration gives your team maximum advantage (as it did), why would you throw that away just to score another 150 runs you don't need?  ...and they still couldn't get Babar out!
I live in SA.  The weather forecast for Sunday is pretty ordinary, and rain delays are very likely.  Again, why risk a result and bat on for runs you don't need?

Nobody will remember this game, it’ll be another walk over that is forgotten. Had warner broke the record, regardless of result it would have been talked about for years.

You might not want to remember it, but any game where Bradman's record is equalled or broken is remembered big time. 
Not being disrespectful, but breaking Hayden or Lara's record doesn't quite have the same charm.

If it rains then they will enforce the follow on but weather looks better than the initial forecast. Otherwise bat another 40 overs and stick them in under the lights again.

Don’t see the pak tail lasting too long tomorrow. Luckily for pak this is only a 2 match series
