**Official** Pakistan v New Zealand in the UAE 2014

hmm I know Taufeeq didn't make himself look flash but he's going to be more solid than either of these two away from home imo. Definitely someone to take on tour. Pakistan need their openers to survive the new ball in countries where it's more of a threat.

Watch - Southee's head when he bowls. It is bolt upright - very Hadlee-esque

Most bowlers tilt their head to the side at the release point and lose height and control.

Southee's bowling too wide of the crease. That should be his change up ball, especially whilst the ball is new.

He's just varying it to keep the batsman guessing. Give the guy a break, he's bowling beautifully.

I don't believe Morrison at all when he says Hadlee was early 140s late in his career.
Indeed. Hadlee would have been low 130s especially off such a short run.

When he first started and he had his 21 step run up he would have been that quick.
