Drinks! A fairly slow and steady first hour on Day 2 but it could have been a lot more interesting if Saim Ayub had held on to a regulation chance at first slip a couple of overs back and sent David Warner packing. Australia aren't going anywhere but Pakistan need wickets to make an impact or else soon enough, the Aussies will start scoring at a quicker rate.

Aamer Jamal to David Warner, DROPPED! Could you believe it? Bowls on a fuller length around the vicinity of the off pole, David Warner goes for a front foot defence and gets a thickish outside edge of his blade which flies straight to the second slip fielder. Saim Ayub the debutant spills an easy sitter and looks dejected, so as do the other fielders. Pakistan cannot afford such silly mistakes. This can prove to be a very costly drop. Poor display of fielding there.
