A lot of hard work to do tomorrow. They still have some very good players to bat yet so nothing's over yet.

Imagine we win by an innings

Great work by Pakistan. Really happy for Misbah after his century, he's deserved that for his recent performances. I actually thought he'd never score a century again

Just need one wicket and we should win then. Don't let a partnership build. I'm confident anyway as spin will play a major role tomorrow, but then again RSA saved a test against Australia recently from a near impossible situation and that was because of AB and Faf

Just managed to find a link and see the duminy dismissal.. some may say he got an edge. But that's the trick of the camera.. The right decision was made.The umpire said it was out. and it took dumminy a few seconds to decide whether to call for the review anyway..
Looks like Pakistan will win now. Need to get devillers out though.

Yeah, agree England. It was the late swing that change the direction of the ball not an edge. He took his time reviewing it as well. AB looking good though

Test ranking scenarios for those Interested here are the scenarios :-

If Pakistan wins 1-0 Pak go up to 4th place

If Pakistan wins 2-0 then Pak goes up to 4th place with an even stronger position

If the series finishes 0-0 or 1-1 then Pakistan moves up to 5th place.

If South Africa wins the series 1-0 or 2-0 then Pakistan will remain in 6th spot.

The aforementioned do not affect South Africa's position at the top of the rakings.

We just need to get AB out soon to win this. If SA do get over the deficit then we will have a new ball but in the meantime Faf is a wicket waiting to happen.

4th place wouldn't be too bad

i know a shock is looking likely but is anyone really that suprised? this result will just re affirm again what people have said about pakistan for years, they lose a test to the worst test side in the world then go and beat the best test side in the world in their next match

Should wrap this up. Very frustrating watching Pakistan at times, we rolled England over 3-0 and now battered Saffers yet draw to Zimbabwe. I think we should lower and raise our performances in accordance with our opposition.

Very impressed with our pace bowlers in particular.

Dude, great deputy, but I'll take that victory thank u very much. When I start or instigate a match thread it leads to a victory.

Let's make this 2-0 and send these guys packing.

Only Pakistan could lose to Zimbabwe one match and beat SA the next

Next game;

Drop azhar, bring in umar Amin
Shafiq to bat at 3
Drop Zulficar and bring back Rehman
