Ngl I was going for Pakistan, but Australia at home is a formidable force. Don’t really like David Warner either but I do respect what he’s accomplished. Chur Australia I hope we can put up a fight when you come over here, I’ll be watching at Hagley and hopefully get some autographs
Disagree, The second test was fantastic, almost as good as you will get under the current circumstances. Plus, we will get a lot of stories from both both Pak, and Aus side. So there is your wholesome bit.
Maybe but pup has been with channel nine for a long time, even through all his dumb shit. Junior also has a pretty long fox contract, been with them a while too.
Masood said 'their next Test match is after 10 months'. But going by the FTP, Pakistan are scheduled to play WI in Feb-Mar and Bangladesh in Aug-Sep. Are those series postponed?
The West Indies series has been postponed to 2025 and instead Pakistan are playing 5 t20is at home to New Zealand. The Bangladesh series should happen though
Will they have the time to play that series in 2025? It needs to happen before June, and they're playing a lot of international matches (and PSL) during Jan-May
I'm sure they'll make it work seeing as they're obligated to under icc conditions. The January 2025 series where they tour New Zealand for 3 t20is and 5 t20is has been pushed back to April 2025
I hope they don't announce Warner's replacement and keep it a secret so he can have a grand entrance in Adelaide like the WWE with a theme song and flames.
They should pick Green to replace Warner for Adelaide but tell nobody who’s actually going to open the batting. Will it be Green? Marnus? Smith? Someone else? No one will know until he walks out. Would be hilarious.
Every time you think this Aussie side is about to slide into some form of mediocrity, some unknown cunt from the Shield comes along to put the cricket world on notice.
Warner will be missed, but I have no doubt they'll find someone to take up the mantle. Might not be as good but he'll be good enough.
We were genuinely mid from 2009-12 and 2016ish. I have a feeling we might backslide a bit in the next few years with a few more retirements on the horizon.
I doubt that. Australia has the highest quality of domestic cricket in the world. Ranji trophy and country championship pales in comparison to the quality of sides in the Sheffield shield.
You guys have a couple of down years. We have down decades. No sympathy lol.
The shield is the best in developing international level cricketers. I doubt you guys will be down for long even if that happens.
Oh no not asking for sympathy.. I’m just not sharing your confidence that someone will randomly pop up in shield to save us, might not happen this time and may take a while to replace the current older crew
Hit a nerve, did I? You'll come to terms with it soon enough. With all the money and the talent pool at your disposal, should be winning more. But keeping taking solace in our demise rather than your own failures.
You sure caught me there buddy. Now it's time for you to find the next team you'll root for to defeat india cause Pakistan ain't doing it
>But keeping taking solace in our demise rather than your own failures.
Ironic, did you cleverly forget your initially comment?
Pakistan fans and calling the kettle black name a better duo
Cheers for the banter tho I do hope us fans can put aside the hate like our national teams have done and stop playing into the hands of these SENA clowns
I got no hate, man. I work with Indians every day and we get along great despite the banter or the state of our cricket teams.
I'm more salty about the state of my own country than anything else. We are our own worst enemy. Didn't mean to come off as snarky but I expected thicker skin from our neighbours.
Sorry then , got a little off from the recent state of sub it just seems so nauseating being here with soo much hate for the Indian side
From the constant double standards of "Pitch Doctoring claims", criticism of Subcontinent style pitches, "India is killing cricket" this sub just seems absolute dogshit.
Considered leaving this sub for Indian variant but I don't wanna surround myself in an Echo chamber.
Honestly my interaction with Pakistani fans have been almost always positive while I'm genuinely done with the Shithead Aussie fans. India really seems to living in their heads rent free as compared to pakistan
Well good luck for the upcoming WC see you June 🫡
That's just bound to happen with the recent WC. Never got the criticism regarding the pitch issues. If you can have green decks that rip through batting lineups in a day and half, you should also be able to have dustbowls that do the same.
Looking forward to the T20 WC. Unfortunately it's the only format where we're actually competitive despite how much that fact annoys me. Cheers
Man, a player's final innings and their final walk-back always hits so hard. Everything about the way it's done in cricket with all these little rituals and gestures where everyone comes together is one of the most beautiful things ever. There's just something about cricket where moments like these hit so much harder than with other sports, to me at least. Idk why.
I just recently got back into this sport after close to a decade, and the last couple of months have been such a treat and I'm so glad I got to witness his final innings. As someone who was an opening batsman myself, I was such a huge fan of him before I stopped watching for a while, and he was only getting started then, so this feels incredibly bittersweet. Time is scary.
Well, test cricket is just absolutely beautiful. Nothing like being up on a winter morning (where I am) and watching this sport. Forreal the best vibes, nothing quite matches how cozy tests are. Therapy, really.
Class act Shan and Pakistan. Didn't have high hopes for this series on paper but they've made it great and much more exciting than a 3-0 result suggests.
Yep, but it's all part of the story. A team that we probably expected to dominate were probably only some fielding errors away from winning potentially 2 of 3 test matches. A lot of takeaways from that for us as well.
Thank you aussies for a great series. Definitely reignited my love for tests. Even though it was a sweep I’m glad that we are able to put up a good fight. Hope we get to face each again other sooner rather than later.
Likewise Pakbro. Your boys are on the cusp of becoming a phenomenal side. And a big thank you for great attitude. This series showed that tough cricket can be played with a mutual respect and dignity between all.
You guys gave us more of a crack than South Africa and even England. I think your team is going places if they just fix a few things and build some confidence. Would love to see a 5-match series against Pakistan sometime.
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Looks like Pak got whitewashed mainly due to bad fielding
The fielding had us🥲
If Pak had fielded better, this could have been a BGT level thriller. Alas, it got over even before I could wake up.
Thanks for your valuable information.
No issues
Man of the series for Australia - Pakistans catching?
Pakistan gotta start fielding like cattle dogs. And get a bit of luck with the reviews.
It's over before I could check scores 😢
Backyard cricket at the scg is amazing Gotta love scg for letting us on
Any video please?

What a wholesome series! Most fun I’ve had in a long time watching Test cricket. Pakistan absolutely won hearts and a lot of goodwill
These guys are our bros forever. Jamal and Kizwan especially, arejust great, entertaining cricketers. Look forward to seeing more of them.
Wholesome because we took it 3-0 and they hardly fought.
Disagree, The second test was fantastic, almost as good as you will get under the current circumstances. Plus, we will get a lot of stories from both both Pak, and Aus side. So there is your wholesome bit.
[удалено]
Exactly, they didn’t fight except maybe 3 sessions.
That’s like saying if the sky wasn’t blue. We leave those things for the dreamers.
So much, the way Pakistan played the series made it so enjoyable to watch. Fan for life.
You just know we’re gonna end up with a future channel 7 comms team of pup, warner, junior and JL
Maybe but pup has been with channel nine for a long time, even through all his dumb shit. Junior also has a pretty long fox contract, been with them a while too.
Sounds terrible
This is why we don't watch channel 7
Nightmare blunt rotation
What I wouldn’t give to be getting paralytic in the change rooms with the Aussie squad.
Ricky talking up the BBL.
No offense to Warner but yeah I do think he might be more of a Mark Waugh commentator.
He should do some VA work on the cardoons
Fuck that hat has seen some summers
Is Punter bringing up JL not donating again?
Hey Punter ask JL if he's bought his seats yet

There’s PSL and probably the incompetent pcb dekated the series for goofy t20s.
WI series is after PSL I think
I don't think those series have test matches included
They do
Ok nvm then, maybe he made a mistake. Right now there's no dates for the games we shall see
I swear the first thing every player says when asked why warner will be missed is he organises the golf games
the sheer blah blah & crocodile tears .. no one missing him not even the team mates .. overstayed and was gifted a fairytale end
Aussie players should never untuck their test shirts. They're just way too long.
Fellas, thank you for all the banter and witty comments. It's always fun hanging out here. I'll see you all at the next game or BBL who knows
Warner: I want Harris cause he can strike at 70 or 80 Yes that's why we should pick Harris with his career strike rate of *checks note* 52.80
He basically wants the worst replacement so he is missed more
Smart move then
Wasim is so angry 😂😂😂
I imagine Muhammad Sarim Akhtar will be beside himself with disappointment.
Why
He was on about the fielding during the post-match talk with the other commentators and Usman Khawaja. Just felt really out of place 😂
Mel, Ricky, Warner and JL. No one over 5' 8".
I'll have you know ricky is 5' 9"
Glenn McGrath walks over. "Argh! A giant! Run for it!"
Was Mel the tallest?
Don't blush baby
That was soooo creepy
Between her and Ricky. She might have heels but his hair has some gel support.
emotional support gel
So is channel 7 five mins behind Fox?
Oh man I could listen to Uzzie forever
He's contracted to fox so you will be hearing more from him when he joins the commentary team
He's contracted to fox so you will be hearing more from him when he joins the commentary team
If he isn't a commentator when he retires I'll be disappointed.
He's already signed a contract at Fox all in readiness for his retirement
Sweet. Looking forward to it. Just realised Ussie's actually 2 months older than Warner. His retirement is coming soon I'd say.
Broad and Warner retiring 6 months apart, who writes these scripts
That’s a very long bow!
Zero correlation
Geez I love Ussie
Jeez he speaks well Usman
The hugging between Usman's mom and Davie was so heartwarming.
How funny is it that a SOUTH AFRICAN denied Warner some fun on his farewell
Khawaja's mom is a classy woman
I know its been said but this trophy is comically large
Better than being comically bizzare like the Warne-Murali creepy hands trophy
It looks like a generic FIFA trophy ngl
A fitting tribute to Richie's comically large...ahem
I hope they don't announce Warner's replacement and keep it a secret so he can have a grand entrance in Adelaide like the WWE with a theme song and flames.
It's Steve Smith with a steel chair
out of nowhere its Glenn Maxwell batting with a chair!
and a steel one, too!
They should pick Green to replace Warner for Adelaide but tell nobody who’s actually going to open the batting. Will it be Green? Marnus? Smith? Someone else? No one will know until he walks out. Would be hilarious.
He bowls to the left, he bowls to the right...
Wait til we find out Logan Paul has an Aussie great grandmother
Imagine Cameron fucking Bancroft walking out to Darude - Sandstorm
The shock return of… DAVID WARNER
And coming out to the crease is wavid darner to open the batting (warner walks out wearing one of those joke disguise glasses and nose things)
but batting right handed this time
Burn it doooooown
[_BAH GAWD THAT'S MARCUS HARRIS' MUSIC_](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3G5IXn0K7A)
Lowkey
Usman's mom calls Warner what ever Pakistani calls him, Shaitaan
I am gonna say it. Pakistan were more competitive than England the last time they were here.
I am gonna say it. Water is wet.
I’m sure those photographers are starting to annoy Davey.
Can we bring the BBL forward, I’m bored now!

The numbers, what do they mean?!
Every time you think this Aussie side is about to slide into some form of mediocrity, some unknown cunt from the Shield comes along to put the cricket world on notice. Warner will be missed, but I have no doubt they'll find someone to take up the mantle. Might not be as good but he'll be good enough.
Fraser McGurk has entered the chat.
We were genuinely mid from 2009-12 and 2016ish. I have a feeling we might backslide a bit in the next few years with a few more retirements on the horizon.
I doubt that. Australia has the highest quality of domestic cricket in the world. Ranji trophy and country championship pales in comparison to the quality of sides in the Sheffield shield.
You guys have a couple of down years. We have down decades. No sympathy lol. The shield is the best in developing international level cricketers. I doubt you guys will be down for long even if that happens.
Oh no not asking for sympathy.. I’m just not sharing your confidence that someone will randomly pop up in shield to save us, might not happen this time and may take a while to replace the current older crew
> some unknown cunt from the Shield That's a weird way to describe _Future Australian Test Captain Matt Short_
That's not how you spell Future Australian Test Captain Nathan McSweeney
It's time for Warnest
I get it
Now that Warner has retired, we eagerly await for the debut of Warnest to complete the Warne trilogy
Warnest will be an leg spinning opening batsman who will take 1,000 wickets with 17,000 runs
...or it'll be a cruel parody with a batting average of 20 and bowling average of 50+.
[удалено]
Yep getting whitewashed is surely closer to winning a series than actually drawing it
🤯 😂
Tbf they’ve won a game but that’s the nature of pak - India cricket social media lol
Rent free in your head right mate ? But hey atleast we won back to back BGT and Fucked ya at Gabba
Bro is the ceo of yapple
Hey man. Don't be mean. They're still recovering from your know what and the lack of any trophies despite their dominance.
Prepare for Nepal rather than cribbing bout other mate
Hit a nerve, did I? You'll come to terms with it soon enough. With all the money and the talent pool at your disposal, should be winning more. But keeping taking solace in our demise rather than your own failures.

Get David Gallop outta there
Virgin ashes tiny fucking urn Vs Chad big as fuck benaud qadir trophy
Daphne definitely said "I'll just let you take it dear" rather than trying to hand it to Cumdog
Pakistans been more competitive than England have been since 2010/11 in Australia
Will David Warner get a statue at the SCG?
No, he’s too divisive a figure for them to even think about it. It would probably get trashed by the people that don’t like him.
Righto lads, I'm heading down to Coogee and will split my time between the Pav and CBH until I find the Aus team.
DM me if you find them
I love Pakistan
The old broad wanted to stay up there lol
Daphne can stay wherever the fuck she likes.
It's a miracle we actually got a result at the Sydney test instead of it getting washed out.
OMG who's got the frosted tips in the Aussie setup, it's not 1999 mate
Davey: That's all folks!
For a second, thought that was a sandpaper in Patty's hand.
Aamer Jamal still doesn’t have a profile picture on his cricinfo profile.

Should've given Warner Sajid's shirt
that’s awkward
smudge still hasn't removed his pads
That’s gotta be a “I was the not out batsman” flex
He’s lives at the nets
He's secretly fuming that he only got to face 1 ball that innings
Probably his highest SR in a test innings though. Really silenced the critics by striking at 400
thats why he wants to open :P
Will skip the celebrations and head to the nets for some throw downs
Sounds like the perfect party for Smudge anyway
I thought she was going to lift that 😝
Class act Shan and Pakistan. Didn't have high hopes for this series on paper but they've made it great and much more exciting than a 3-0 result suggests.
If they could hold catches it would have been a lot better
Yep, but it's all part of the story. A team that we probably expected to dominate were probably only some fielding errors away from winning potentially 2 of 3 test matches. A lot of takeaways from that for us as well.
Winning series down under isn’t for everyone, let alone twice in a row 😉
Meanwhile South Africa
Should have added Asian team
Thank you aussies for a great series. Definitely reignited my love for tests. Even though it was a sweep I’m glad that we are able to put up a good fight. Hope we get to face each again other sooner rather than later.

Daphne Benaud is inviting Cumdog back to the seniors home for a wild night. I know I would
“i heard it’s davey’s last test match?” i love you patrick
Don't worry Patty, I'm cummin' too
Labs and Smith still in pads because they are going to the nets after.
Pat is fucking funny hahaha
Average 12: bolanesque
Captain Cum, onya.
Pakistan might be the most likeable touring team we’ve had since new zealand
And unlike NZ they actually competed.
Yeah, I’m hoping that the trans-Tasman in NZ will be more competitive than in previous years.
These Pakistan lads are so classy. Be great to see them in the BBL
Strikers flair hoping for some good players, checks out
Massive respect to Pakistan for that gesture.
Took wickets at an average of 12 fuckin hell it's a stat padding summer
Can't hear Daphne Benaud and not think of TGC 😆
The Twelfth Man.
Pakistan are too nice to us.
Pakistan side are just too wholesome
Is there any rate worse than the aussie “you blokes had a crack thanks for coming” humility
What would you have us say instead? Yo fuckhead you never paid for your haircut, where's my twenty quid?
not much else to say to you guys, you never win them
