Pakistan v Australia in England, June-July 2010

When was he last fit?:p
 
Butt is a very good player of pace and comfortable on the back foot. On song, he puts forward a very good case, because he is a clean hitter who racks up boundaries. However, he has tended to be poor against spin and a bit awkward off his pads. These sorts of things have probably stopped him from going on with a lot of starts. Being Pakistani probably doesn't help, because there's a fair bit of 'rotation' going on, even for the top players.
 
Actually, I think they're just here to watch Australia lose :p

That will be a lot of disappointed people.


Hopefully Afridi gives me some more material for my video :p

On a serious note, Butt always seems to perform against the Aussies and on pacy wickets, he is an anomaly amongst his teammates

Yeah, maybe Afridi will play another one of his Captain's knocks, like the first innings.:facepalm
 
Butt is really looking good!

I think he will score a century and rest departing!
 
Somehow Butt is making batting look easy. Within 20 minutes play he scored already 4 fours.
 
I seriously think that Pakistan are going to do it if Johnson continues to bowl like that they're effectively a bowler down. Added on top of that Butt has looked excellent.

And to top the topped off this pitch suddenly looks dead flat and it isn't swinging at all quite similar to what happened in the 2nd Ashes Test where the sun came out every time England batted :p

Yeah I'm scared we'll give him 5 wickets again.
 
Pakistan reach a 100 runs partnership. I didn't expect this to happen.

Australia needs one wicket and then a familiar collapse will happen.
 
Pakistan have a made 51-49 type of match :)

Butt :hpraise looking good so far!!
 
Finally the wicket is down
 
It was inevitable really. Butt is looking superb though. Time for Umar Amin to prove me wrong!
