*Official* Australia vs Pakistan in England

[Spark]

Watto on a hatrick!

A gift from Rudi (although it looked pretty - no, really - bad (out) live).

 

[social]

Thought Rudi was retired

Anyway, Watto getting the rewards for pitching the ball up and bowling straight - that's all it takes from under 7s to test cricket for a medium pacer

This sort of thing really convinces me that India need to bring Praveen Kumar and Dhawal Kulkarni over to England next time we play Tests here.

 

[Manee]

Watson really looking infinitely more dangeorus the Bollinger, Hilf and Johnson.

Well Umar Akmal is not doing much that low down the order either. No point keeping him there Malik and Umar should take no 3 and no 4 and move the noobs to 5 and 6...

I wouldn't say Pak's lead is healthy enough...if the ball keeps moving the way it has been perhaps it is fine...but we have seen them over come a 200 run lead and then 150+ target destroyed Pak....

 

[Jayzamann]

I can't believe this.

 

[Shri]

Another 5fa for Watto.

Well, the collapse was never too far away, was it. Bowl Watson from both ends, the rest of the Aussie bowlers look really toothless ATM.

I wouldn't say this was a conventional collapse for Pak batting..if this is what you are saying....pretty much all the batsmen chipped in with 20+ runs which is great by Pak batting standards...1 odd fifty would have been ideal but that Watto! always in Pakistan's face, if not with the bat ...then with the ball...

True, Pakistan still in a great position to win this if they keep a clear head.

God Watson could be averaging under 25 with the ball after this Test...

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Haha, Watson. What a gun.

Think I could average under 25 if I played against Pakistan regularly.

 

[Faisal1985]

Well that was pretty useless from Malik....he had so much time on his hand to get a 50 or something...this is what i hate about Pak batting mentality....

 

[Pratters]

If Australia manage 300-350 in their second go, we are in for a cracker. Not completely out of the question IMO.

With only Kaneria and Asif to bat don't think time was on Malik's side, reckon he had to take some risks unfortunately the execution wasn't up to it.

And a knighthood if he were English

 

[Spark]

Oh Ponting. Why are you giving Kaneria a LONG ON

 

[Pratters]

Costly last wicket partnership.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

This is hilarious watching 2 of the worst bats in the world smash the ball to all parts.
