Re: Pakistan vs Australia - 1st ODI - Sharjah
I m sure.
Chk afridi’s stats in Australia. Plus Adelaide Oval And SCG are pretty good dusty pitches for spin. Plus u can also check Shane Warne’s stats… Pak will have 2 matches in Adelaide Oval with India and Ireland… Hagley Oval, Christchurch will host us with west indies but nothing much is known about that ground, hosted only 2 internationals before. Both low key teams. So we will know only after Sirilanka VS Newzealand ODI. Ironically they will play at the same venue after a week but this time its going to be a WoRLD CUP ODI. So Sirilanka has the best advantage of the pitches of all teams not hosting the world cup.
PAK vs South Africa will be in Eden Park, Auckland, seems a slow pitch with short boundaries. So a high scoring match on the cards, but one that will definitely assist the spinners.
So yeah afridi and other spinners will definitely come in handy on these slow pitches.
