Reckon he misread length more. Was that Shah's slider?

Paine from the old school of  Aussie spin play.. visibly uncomfortable.

I think it was his slider and Marnus didn't pick it at all.

We do have a chance to draw this still, Khawaja doesn't look like getting out so hopefully the other 5 can just block out enough overs.

Paine from the old school of  Aussie spin play.. ordinary.

Gotta say I misread this pitch. It has not broken up much at all. Only the odd puff of dust.

Shah has his tail up but I reckon reverse swing will be our biggest danger

Didnt Kettlebough raise his finger to give Paine out?

Didnt Kettlebough raise his finger to give Paine out or was I seeing things?

Khawaja beats Ponting's 118 against Bangladesh in 2006 -  to now hold the highest fourth innings score by an Australian in Asia

Pakistan went ballistic for that appeal, but they have non left.

Paine didn't touch it anyway.

Paine has honed his skills from when I used to bowl to him in the school playground!

We've been completely outplayed for most of the game.

I like the Bilal straight ball that kicks up high off the pitch.

Is it a finger spinner’s top spinner?

Didn’t realise Paine had a Test average of 40!

I reckon it is higher than his Shield average.

Told you one wicket and we are into our long tail.

So near to saving the game. But we can be proud of this effort. Good momentum to take into the next match.

Now Siddle has gone, I think I break partnerships  once I come back from a break.

I'm bad luck for the Aussies when they bat. Suddenly, Shah is taking wickets.

I thought we were even a chance to win it whilst Usman was still there.
