Pakistan Tour of Australia 2009/10

Will be good seeing how Rauf goes, haven't seen him bowl before. This is probably the best match up for Boxing day, Pakistan's gun bowling vs our batters. Big one for me will be Watson v the bowlers early on.

aussie1st added 8 Minutes and 7 Seconds later...

Impressive first ball pace wise for Aamer on Boxing day. When I saw him in NZ his first few overs were in the 130s so 146 to begin is impressive.
 
Its intriguing to see Aamer hit the mid 140s early on. I feel that he may trouble Katich by his extra pace, especially when Katich strides across his stumps.

Will be interesting to see.
 
excellent coverage..... really enjoy the extra bells and whistles in a telecast...

nice tracker by Gator
 
ok one down 14 more to go.... Pakistan back to their usual self
 
Made a $20 bet with my flatemate that Pakistan will drop more catches today then they will take wickets, 1-0 to me so far.
 
Asif has bowled realyl well, as usual, cautious start by Aus, 39/0 in 15 overs
 
Mark Taylor talking up New Zealand cricket, I like. Guess no one has passed on the news of Bonds retirement though.
 
Mark Taylor and Bill Lawry are complete twits, but I guess thats old news. They never have any idea what happens in cricket throughout the year unless its played in australia. Talking up Bond is just plain dumb, how can they not have heard about his retirement????

Well tbf he did know that New Zealand were 90-0 after 18 overs in the last test. But he probably only knows that because they were given the scorecard of the last test Pakistan played.
 
I'm certain thats the case, Taylor especially is terrible in his knowledge of the game.

I know Watson has haters, but surely everyone can appreciate his magnificent strokeplay, he is so correct its ridiculous. Glorious to watch when he drives, full face of the bat, great to watch. He looks 10000% more secure than Katich and Hughes, his only technique fault so far is that lbw thing, but everyone has one or more weaknesses, the bowlers have to be good enough to exploit it. Pakistan looked good in th first hour but Watson was rock solid, great stuff Watto. Katich looks like he is batting on a minefield.
