Pakistan v Australia, 2nd ODI, Match Thread

"Mitchell Starc is by far better than his namesake Johnson. Despite the fact that Mitch Johnson has more experince, he is a worse player whilst Starc is a much better and improved player."

Couldn't agree more, Starc is more accurate (not that it's especially hard ), more upright in his delivery so gets more bounce and he keeps the seam upright allowing movement in the air and off the deck. Starc is already streets ahead.

Anyone watching the match in hand? Pakistan have absolutely murdered Australia and that ties the series, as is ours.

We have some good cricket to look forward over the up and coming days.

Wasim Akram always likes working with bowlers, especially left-armers. I'm pretty sure he's worked with Mitch Johnson before as he has with Mitch Starc, but it seems Starc is the only person listening.

Seriosuly, Mitch Johnson is the Mohammad Sami of Cricket. And, Vise Versa. Though this Umesh Yadav of India is proving the same too.

12.3 overs 72 runs v NZ in a Test match today. Cor blimey, Umesh- You're giving Sami a good name

I watched some of the game, Maski... I didn't watch Pakistan bowl, but did watch them bat a little. It was pretty good batting.

I don't care what people say, Pakistan collapse on everything, so this is a performance we should applaud.

Great fightback Amir and chuffed to rocks for you and your team. I just love watching Australia getting stuffed.

Well as much as you like watching Aus get stuffed. I like watching India getting stuffed, like they did against NZ today 320+ scored by NZ in 81 overs.

And, Pakistan win by 7 wickets. Great batting

Bring on the decider.

hehe It's been a perfect day of cricket hasn't it?
Indias bowlers are naff. Are we still calling them bowlers? lol
And the Saffers managed to get stuffed too
Oh well at least Pakistan and England know how to play our beautiful game

Super winner. Told you guys not to worry after first game. Always have been slow starters. Zindabaaad. Geoo janayo 😊
