what use is it

[Shri]

for you to have akram, waqar, akhtar etc if you can not win a test match in australia

all you really need is actually talented pacers plus an ashwin to support them

spin > pace. ind > pak.

good night

Ok

Pakistan pacers rely on swing and reverse swing. You don't tend to get those in Australia, unless ofcourse you scruff up the ball intentionally, like they did back in the hayday of Pak cricket. Thankfully cameras started to cover every inch of the ground and broadcast became global. And so guys could no longer do things like that or chew on the ball without getting caught!

At least Pakistan compete in England without arbitrarily changing the series length mid-series

 

[Xix2565]

Hard to say England were competing then apart from Root, a couple of bowlers amd English weather.

No one cares about English cricket

The Pakistani team of that era played an ATG Australian side. The current Indian side didn't. Also that Pakistani side could win in NZ. This Indian side can't.

Imagine Wasim, Waqar, Shoaib and Saqlain bowling to Marcus Harris and Travis Head

That Australian side was ATG but NZ side wasn't . Similarly current Australian side isn't ATG but current NZ side is probably best NZ side in their history of cricket.

But they bowled to Greg Blewett ?

Here's a theory: batting is real.

 

[centurymaker]

In the last 25 years Pakistan's record in Australia reads

14 Tests
14 defeats
no wins or draws

5 whitewashes

Could have been worse

Let's not be heartless souls here and quantify their performances, Pakistani fast bowlers have an intrinsic quality to them irrespective of how they did in Australia.

Just like not everyone likes Ethiopian food, but that doesn't change the cuisine's intrinsic beauty.

Or how can we ever forget Shoaib Akhtar's spell at Perth? Ponting was hopping around and in extreme case he may have done jumping jacks too while facing Akhtar, shows the beauty of that spell

Jazba junoon dileri of Akhtar >>>>> Australia winning 3-0

ponting looking stupid is not an uncommon sight. ishant did it to him and so did harbhajan for a decade in india
