*Official* Australia in Pakistan 2022

Flem274*

123/5
They'll be better off slogging if anything. Shaheen has even developed some hitting pedigree these days. Have the men out there whom we'd ideally want though. Loads riding on them to not lose.
agreed on this pair. i really like faheem as a solid allrounder who balances the side really well but he can't be left as much to do as these guys are capable of, even if he's played some impressive knocks on tour.

Lyon has barely bowled around the wicket to the right handers this innings that I can recall. He should give it a go

Lyon the biggest indictment there, though I suppose you expect Starc to get stuff done if it’s wearing too.

Yeah it's a major issue. Not sure what's the cause either. Starc's figures in particular are disgusting.

Whatever it takes!!!
You gotta question the tactics here. Apart from one burst, I have hardly seen an attempt at getting the fast bowlers to bowl reverse swing at these two. Not very good captaincy from Cummins, I am afraid. Added to the selections and even the field placements, I think we are seeing he is prone to the galaxy brain antics that does not bode well at all for Australia.

148 to win in 25 overs with Pakistan's two T20I openers at the crease.

Also - Babar eclipse's Atherton's 185* as the highest 4th innings score by a captain. Quality.

Weird sequence of play, 10 mins ago it possibly looked like Pakistan might be going for it and they came into 8/1.
10 mins later they're back to 30/1, people got fooled by what appeared some attacking shots.
Draw is now 1,1
Aus 16/1
