The second and final test, a day-night affair, starts at the Adelaide Oval on Friday. Marnus Labuschagne (185) and David Warner (154) helped the hosts accumulate a first-innings tally of 580 in reply to Pakistan’s 240. Pakistan had resumed on 64-3 after a miserable day three at the Gabba in which they were pillaged for runs by Australia’s batsmen and then lost a good chunk of their top order. With Australia’s vaunted quicks labouring in the Brisbane sun, it was left to the subtlety of Lyon’s off-spin to make the breakthrough – a slightly quicker ball catching the outside edge of Azam’s bat and flying through to Tim Paine behind the stumps. Three deliveries later and Rizwan, playing in only his second test, reached the half century mark with a top edge that raced away to the boundary. Showcasing his shot-making, Azam hit 13 fours including the confident drive that brought him to cricket’s most significant milestone, which he celebrated with a huge roar and fist pump before prostrating himself on the Gabba pitch. The writing looked on the wall for Pakistan at that stage but Azam showed the quality that many believe will one day make him one of the world’s best batsmen in a superb 173-ball innings. In this situation, when it seems all the focus of the Rangers’ season is being projected into the playoffs, of course it was Brad Richards. The original Skipper is currently located in the Holtzman Alumni Center museum, located at 901 Prices Fork Rd., until the new Corps Leadership and Military Science building opens.Babar Azam scored his second century and Mohammad Rizwan his maiden half century in a 132-run partnership that helped Pakistan to 268 for six at tea on Sunday, stalling Australia’s march to victory in Brisbane on day four of the first test.Īzam was caught behind off spinner Nathan Lyon for 104 half an hour before the break and Rizwan (77 not out) will resume with Yasir Shah (17 not out) with the tourists still needing 72 runs to force Australia to bat again.īefore lunch, Pat Cummins had removed opener Shan Masood for 42 to break a 68-run partnership with Azam before his fellow paceman Josh Hazlewood pitched in five balls later to dismiss Iftikhar Ahmed for a duck. Read the news from Maon the New York Post. In 1984, Paul Huffman, Jr., a Virginia Tech alumnus whose father’s foundry had created the original Skipper, volunteered to design and create a new Skipper for the Corps of Cadets at no charge as his father had done. To this day Skipper continues the tradition outset by its founders, serving as a guide for the corps, alumni, fans, and all of Hokie nation.Īfter serving proudly for 19 years, the original Skipper suffered a blowout in 1982. The cannon is a symbol of family, tradition, and Hokie pride.Īt the beginning of every game and at every Hokie score, the rumble of the nearly 1,000 pound cannon can be heard throughout the Blacksburg community.
