Australia vs Pakistan 2016, 2nd Test, Day 4: 5 talking points

Wahab Riaz
Wahab bowled a total of 12 no balls in his 27 overs

#2 Yasir and Misbah's questionable field placements

Yasir Shah
Yasir improved on his economy today adjusting to the field in place

Yasir Shah had a pathetic day at MCG on Day 3 of the Test match. He bowled the most expensive 10 overs at MCG before bringing it down to 6 an over at the end of the day's play yesterday.

Misbah had set a 6-3 leg-side field for the leggie that neither yielded wickets nor contained the constant flow of runs. The field changed to 5-4 every time a boundary was scored, which was far too often, but quickly changed back to the old one.

Yasir improved on his economy today adjusting to the field in place, but it was by no means a helpful field to take wickets. He cleaned up Maddinson to add 2 in the Test to his bag but one can safely say that it remains his worst Test match since debut.
