*Official* Australia vs Pakistan in England

[Faisal1985]

No point bowling good length balls that move away to a career ferret. DtR not good enough to nick them.

Its the biggest dilemma of a seam bowler....

 

[Faisal1985]

I say bring in Gul and give clear instructions for those laser guided yorkers.

 

[Kylez]

So is their actually a reason why the UDRS isn't being used this series?

 

[Faisal1985]

**** fielding from Pak again....with the field brought in and still give a single..

 

[Faisal1985]

So we are 13 overs short....how is the weather for tomorrow? Early start may be.

 

[Pothas]

Likely to be some rain tomorow, some more heavy stuff predicted for tomorow afternoon.

Excellent performance from Pakistan today, just going to need someone to make some runs.

Hmm...so it could yet be another Pak batting collapse on the cards....with that forecast.

 

[Sir Alex]

How good is this Aamer!!

 

[AaronK]

Mike Hussey.. how would pakistan get rid of him.. it seems like everytime.. pakistan play against Aus. Hussey is the main headach..

I am not saying pakistan is on top now.. as long as Hussey is there.. he will repeat the sydne test would snatch the match away from pakistan.. just watch..

 

[Pothas]

Would not be worrying about Hussey (in this innings at least) if I were you, really cannot see Dough hanging around for long tomorow morning.

It would be the batting lineup without a single proven quality test batsman in it that would be the more obvious concern.

 

[Sir Alex]

Just imagine had India and Pakistan did not seperate. But anyways the BCCI zonal idiots would ensure that a Wasim Akram sharing the ball with Venkatesh Prasad.

And then you have Afridi....betting a ton from Afridi.....

TBH, we may not have been able to see a lot of greats from both sides if that was the case....but you never know, strong batting of India and this bowling line up of Pak...that could be something....

 

[slowfinger]

Can't see the match finishing somehow.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Can't see the match finishing somehow.

This,which is a shame as it is the best chance Pakistan will have to win a game in this series in my opinion.

 

[kingkallis]

Ninth consecutive test where Kat has scored a 50, that's serious constant rock solidness.

Yeah, closing in on Richards & Gambhir...[ 11 50s in 11 games ]

 

[kingkallis]

I think they still haven't sorted him out.....even i can't tell what exactly they should do, he has pretty much all the shots in the book....

Faisal its pretty simple!

Keep taking wickets from other end...

 

[mohammad16]

No need to get excited here, these were excellent bowling conditions. It would be nothing short of a miracle if Pakistan get past 150.

 

[Avada Kedavra]

Excellent stuff from Pakistani bowlers....have ruthlessly exposed Aus batting is these conditions.We will see a repeat of Sydney test...with Pakistan coming out on top this time.229 is a pathetic total

 

[Nate]

So much for depth.

Australia have never used batting depth well. I feel that it actually often works the other way and the batsmen take less responsibility.
