worst possible start and the match was probably decided in that over! :)

Lets just realize guys, we are playing with the best team in the world and we had no chance of winning to begin with. Even Ponting had given us the bheek at 250 runs each time.
we are losing yeah! but I am happy to note aussies are NOT the best team in the world anymore. In top three for sure but they are in a rebuilding phase, still a lot better than us though.

- so much for all that armchair planning…
a draw is far-fetched now, but let’s just hope that it is a respectable defeat.
Re: Pakistan v Australia 1st Test Melbourne , Dec 26-30
exactly!
Re: Pakistan v Australia 1st Test Melbourne , Dec 26-30
^ I agree about the drawing room analysis stuff :)
but....you have Moyo still at the crease...a big hundred from him with a good support role from Akmal senior can easily save the game...
just wait out the new ball corkers...
any chance of rain? :D Maybe Yousuf can put in special prayer for a rain as he is did in NZ
Just when I was fancying our chances!
pathetic nick by Misbah.
Isn't what he did when his stay was critical in New Zealand as well? I guess he is a choker as displayed many many times now.
I think that is a bit too much for some of our batsmen.

What does it mean? You can hate their cockiness, but you gotta love their professionalism. I always admire their professional approach, they have set the bar so high for others to follow.
I hope the likes of Akmals, Aamirs, Ajmals and others that will follow in future will be much better cricketers and athletes.

Let's hope they bat as long as they can now. A victory is possibly out of reach now. :(
Re: Pakistan v Australia 1st Test Melbourne , Dec 26-30
Congrats to Yousuf for his 50 :k:
Re: Pakistan v Australia 1st Test Melbourne , Dec 26-30
Good innings by MoYo.
Re: Pakistan v Australia 1st Test Melbourne , Dec 26-30
Good job by yousuf...not even half done though...
Johnson bowling excellent....
Misbah and Umer both got undone by excellent deliveries...

What the Janna’t they did to the match ? ![]()
Re: Pakistan v Australia 1st Test Melbourne , Dec 26-30
Akmal ne mara chakkaaaa, aur Pakistan 202/5
Re: Pakistan v Australia 1st Test Melbourne , Dec 26-30
Akmal ne mara chakkaaaa (khayalon mein), aur Pakistan 214/6
Akmal should be dropped for that...
he needs to be punished. needs to be taught a lesson he will always remember.
Re: Pakistan v Australia 1st Test Melbourne , Dec 26-30
And Amir too :D
Re: Pakistan v Australia 1st Test Melbourne , Dec 26-30
So who is up for dropping everyone (except Yousuf may be)? :D
Re: Pakistan v Australia 1st Test Melbourne , Dec 26-30
Abdur Rauf gone too and he may have gone forever..
