pro’s and con’s
India won the toss and decided to field which is a very good decision
but they will have to bat on a 5th day wickets which we know is very unpredictable
Pakistan getting early wickets
but with the new ball, soon the ball will get old and weary and will get easier to bat with and harder to bowl with
Re: Good Wicket
End of day one
Pros for Pak-
1) They already have the runs on board.
2) The Indian Big guns -Dravid,Sehwag and Tendulkar are back in the pavilion
3) Pakistani bowlers(better in quality thn Indian bowlers) have found their rhythm and are swinging the bowl nicely
4) Yuvraj and Ganguly are extemely short on confidence because of no time at crease as well as competing for each others place
Pros for Ind--
1) The pitch, if the Indians get past the initial half hour, is expected to play beautifully as well as the ball getting old which will make it a beauty to bat on
2) Dhoni and Pathan-crisis men expected to make some runs
But overall, I believe Pak holds a slight upper hand---could go either way really, depends on which team grabs the initiative and doesnt lose any opportunties.
And ofcourse this is a great wicket...much better than the ones we've had before and I thank the Curator to have such a great test wicket prepared.
Re: Good Wicket
abay yaar, abhi tak tou ro rahe thay Lahore and Faislabad ki pitch ko, now pros and cons of a good wicket.
I say its GOOD for cricket and thats it. Winning and Loosing doesn’t matter, a good contest b/w bat and ball is what people pay for.
Enjoying CRICKET for the first time in this series!
