Not going to complain about an extra 8 overs of cricket to watch tbh
You'll get it tomorrow. Stupid call for a team that's taken 2 wickets in the final session to date.

Pakistan really got screwed by that call, three wickets to go against a side that has been resilient all day and they call an extra 8 overs in difficult night conditions. Night batting is a lot different to day batting, and this is getting towards the very late night batting category so it's pretty harsh to make them face out another eight overs in these conditions. Hopefully they give the Aussies a scare and come within say 40-50 runs of the target.

Completely screwed. They better last it out otherwise they'll be fuming at the umpires in the Palistan rooms

The extra overs have let them gain 30 runs already on the total, just gotta hope for no wickets from the next few overs

The point when they believe they can genuinely win the test match will be the point when the 3 wickets fall.
