*Official* Pakistan vs Australia in the UAE 2018

This series:

SE Marsh: 14 runs at 3.50
MR Marsh: 30 runs at 7.50

Amazingly enough, that’s not the lowest Shaun Marsh has averaged in a Test series.

This is potentially a more embarrassing batting performance than the final morning of the SA series.

Amazing how much Oz have struggled with the bat this series considering how Shah has been much less a factor than expected.

replace shah with ajmal and this could easily describe the last uae series too, although in that case there were at least a few good innings by different people

That was a better batting lineup, too.

Oddly Marsh actually did pretty well there.

 

[GotSpin]

Yeah I thought MMarsh would bat well this series. But yeah, nah.

 

[Burgey]

**** off rain. Don’t deserve it.

 

[mr_mister]

Jesus the Marshes. I hope Langer eats humble pie

 

[CricAddict]

Labuwarne got the wickets while now Starc gets the runs. Reversal of roles.

 

[cnerd123]

Mitchell Marsh isn't even the best batsman named 'Mitchell' in his team.

 

[quincywagstaff]

Yasir Shah changes to over the wicket to a left-hander and gets a wicket; what a shock.

 

[GotSpin]

Labuschagne has some potential. Get him back to into shield cricket Asap

 

[Burgey]

Jeez I thought that pitched outside. Could cost us the test.

 

[NUFAN]

The end to a brilliant test career. Farewell you big hearted god.

 

[Burgey]

Yep. Well done Sidds. Have another banana champ

 

[GotSpin]

Guys...play forward

 

[quincywagstaff]

Why would they take the overthrow to keep Siddle on strike? Surely try to get Labuschagne to face as much as possible.

 

[nightprowler10]

Bring back Abbas for his 10-fer.

 

[quincywagstaff]

That is a seriously ugly trophy - looks like an ad for Brighto Paints than actually a cricket one.

I've watched most of both of these tests and I'm just struck by how little actual test quality play has been displayed by us here. There's 3-4 players up to the standard. Shameful.

Credit to the Pakistanis for exposing it. Once the India series start, they will all become test standard.
