Geez that's rough. One centimetre further down leg...

Try 1mm.

 

[Prince EWS]

Try 1mm.

Indeed, or 1mm higher. So close on two fronts.

Hafeez: "That was totally intended"

How's that limiting impact thing working out?

Damn I wish I was able to watch this.

This is enough for Starc to bowl at. Should declare now so they can hit the clubs tonight after the game.

I would have agreed had I not watched the last match till 3 am in the morning

Like how Jamshed goes about things; selectors need to stick with him

Heavy dew is taking its toll, getting impossible to grip the ball

The scheduling of this series is ****. These conditions are not proper cricket conditions. It's unfair on the players. It's about a billion degrees and the outfield is soaking wet, and they finish the game at like 3am.

****ing hot today and really humid

Was at the ground to watch the first innings and left after 30 odd overs because it was too hot

Got home and all of the windows are fogged up as the aircon is set to 20 and it's still high 30s/massively humid outside

Not like its unusual for this time of year either

The fact Aust. can't field a proper spinner in some of the most spin-friendly conditions imaginable is a real worry. They better hope the pitches for the next WC in Aus regain some of their famous bounce and pace.

I hope one day in the not-so-distant-future Pakistan can play on their home turf again.
