Mickey Arthur: “I hope they come out tomorrow and show a passion, they show a desire and hunger to try and salvage some pride out of this tour because if they don’t, I feel that this Test match could be finished tomorrow”

Former Pakistan head coach Mickey Arthur has noted that unless the national team puts up a fight, he believes the ongoing second Test will be over on the third day.
Arthur’s comments come after Pakistan ended the second day on Saturday at 96/6 after Australia declared on 589/3.
David Warner led the way for the Baggy Greens as he struck a career-best 335 not out, which came off 418 balls and included 39 boundaries and a six.
With Pakistan staring down the barrel of another massive loss, Arthur hopes the team will show some “passion”, “desire” and “hunger” to “salvage some pride”.
