Ali is key here for Pakistan, I am sure Misbah will be fighting with all he has and so will Younis, but they can not do it all by themselves.

These are the only two batsman who could get a massive score for Pakistan. Get either of them soon, and it's game over.

This is why I like Clarke and rate him as a captain. He would have declared a while back and would trust his bowlers to get the job done. Smith on the other hand is very risk averse.
Smith did exactly that twice in their home summer, first tests against NZ and first test against Pak. I thought it pointless then, just as it would be pointless now.

Steyn is getting the ball to reverse now, so this won't last for very long. And I thought Juniad could manage it as well, but it turns out he can't. Don't understand how he has lost his ability to swing, seam and reverse.

Timing-wise this declaration was almost identical to Sydney 2012, so not really sure where you get that from. Clarke declares early when he feels he might run out of time, there's no chance of that here.

How has clarkes team been doing on the rankings?

Are they replaying the actual incident which has been pinged?

Lol, so that's how Steyn is reversing it.

Personally he should be allowed, since you don't get much opportunity to see reverse.

Smith should deny it and storm off imo. Pakistan win the match. Greatest comeback ever.
