Going at 8 an over for the first 40 minutes was pretty good to watch.Cricket - action packed? Test cricket is rarely so.

Right up there with the best cricketers I've seen.Pakistan haven't played a test in Adelaide since 1990... wow.
Wasim Akram made a hundred in that test if I recall correctly.
So you're not a fan of real cricket, yet you're on a cricket thread.Never been a fan of test cricket and never will. Have had ongoing arguments that cricket had to bastardise its game to remain relevant - first 50 overs ODI and now Big Bash. If it wasn’t for the latter two, test cricket would have died years ago.
Name one other sport that has had to totally change the game.
That’s actually the point of a declaration - to give the opposition team some hope of a victory. If results are zero chance of a win for the Pakistan, then they’d likely not play risky (leave or block all the balls) to avoid a loss.Just wasting our position, get 6-650, bat Pakistan out of the game and give them 3 and a bit days to save the test match.
No point giving Pak any hope of winning.

Look I don't want to be rude but typically I've found people I meet who speak out about test cricket being boring tend to be vapid empty vessels themselvesNever been a fan of test cricket and never will.

Thanks a lot Pakistan. Now we're stuck with this cheating, flat track bully Warner for the foreseeable future.
It's a bit like the Jumping mountain goats who fart when they jump --- it's not known if the jumping makes them fart, or the farting makes them jump.
Yes, David Warner hitting 150 and 250 is exactly like that.It's like Mackay's customary early season good games against GC and St Kilda.
