"When you come here, you look for progress. If you told us at the start of the Test that Australia would play 110 overs and we would play 100 overs, I'd take that as a batting unit," Shan said in the post-match ceremony."Even though we were playing one of the best attacks in the world, we could have batted a bit quicker. We probably missed out on 60-70 runs which could have minimised the lead," he added.Meanwhile, Shan stressed that bowlers could have been more disciplined."Bowling-wise thought we did a lot of good things. Not as disciplined as we wanted to be, that's the lesson from the Australian attack," he maintained."A lot of positive things to take forward. It's never easy when you play two debutants but thought they were very mature. They bowled really well, on another day could have got more wickets," he concluded.It must be noted that during their chase of a 450-run target, Pakistan were dismissed for a mere 89 runs, Saud Shakeel top-scored for the dismantled visitors’ side with 24 runs.Pakistan's improbable attempt to claim their first Test win in Australia since 1995 was shattered by the Nathon Lyon and the home team's formidable pace attack, swiftly concluding the game within four days.In pursuit of 450 for victory, the visitors surrendered meekly with Lyon claiming 2-18. Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood also secured three wickets each.Australia declared on the fourth day at 233-5 after Pakistan were dismissed for 271 in their first innings, responding to the hosts' 487.Pakistan Test captain Shan Masood has opened up after his side suffered a humiliating 360-run defeat on day four of the first Test against Australia at Perth on Sunday.Pakistan were bowled out for 89 after 30.2 overs in chase of 450.

                        Adam   commented one year agoThere's something to fix in the whole team. Unity is missing.  Pakistan is a better side but selection was poor. Better players not included.
