Pakistan tour of Australia (Dec 2016 - Jan 2017)

[aditya123]

Contrary to what people think, I feel that the GABBA would be Pakistan`s best chance at a victory. Firstly, if it assists seamers, Australia are as prone to a collapse as any side in world cricket as evident from their recent performances. In a low scoring encounter, all it takes is one batsman to get a good score and I believe that Pakistan has that in them. On a flatter deck that neutralizes Pakistan`s bowling, their suspect batting proves to be more of a weaklink.

2 Quick Wickets for Pakistan

Warner & Khawaja gone

With Wahab Riaz charging in, bowling 150ks an hour, the last thing I want to be thinking about is whether I'm getting paid too much - Steve Smith

That does not happen often, a player praising an opposition player even before the start of the match. No more mind games?

It's good to see/read though.

If we can get Smith early, we'll be in the inexperienced middle order.

Renshaw gone !!! A good innings by him

So far Pakistan is paying the price of inducting Rahat Ali once again... Leaving out Imran Khan who performed so well against newzeland in his last game.... You didn't even induct that guy in the warm-up game..... I dint understand the management logics here.. Plus the tactics are defensive. The game has been taken away from them at the moment.

Amir Down :/ GWS! LOOKS BAD!!
3 Bowlers left ! Shah won't take many wickets! Rahat and Wahab are crap ! RIP PCT ...

 

[Umair7]

Amir is back on the pitch (Thanks GOD)

 

[Rehan_24]

Josh Hazlewood has the opportunity of his life to become the next James Anderson... Jackson Bird to become the next Grandhomme or Steven Finn even and Lyon to be the next Hauritz....

Renshaw and Handscomb already secured their place for the entire series...

Smith <3 16th Test Hundred :')

So annoyed with Pakistani performance. Turned it off when Smith hit consecutive fours of Rahat (somewhere around the 40th over), Ridiculous bowling and giving away too many easy runs.

Also, why Rahat???? Cumulatively he bowled 5 decent bowls and the rest were so mediocre. I worry how the test is going to play out with Australian bowlers looking more potent and out weak batting, especially when we will be chasing somewhere around 400-450.

Hopefully Misbah will make a 50 off 200 balls and rescue us, because i´m predicting a hammering otherwise.

Good lord Mohommad Amir is good!

Hopefully Misbah will make a 50 off 200 balls and rescue us, because i´m predicting a hammering otherwise.

A bigger miracle would be Younis Khan scoring runs away from home for a change. Or someone else in the batting line-up pulling their weight.
