Poor leadership from Misbah. Took for too long to bring Ajmal back in
Slightly iffy decision there, still expect Aus to win.

Yeah I think Misbah missed it. He should have attacked with Ajmal.
Ajaml still has one over and tail cant play him. It is the other bowler who will decide win or lose.
The pace bowlers have let us down. Compare them to the Aussie pace bowlers and its like men v boys.
OK guys next over is going to be interesting. Cheema did good.
Well played the Aussies as Pakistans Aussie hoodoo continues.
Shocking batting and poor seam bowling cost us.
Yeah pak fast bowling lost it for the team.
Good game though.
Well done Australia. The Middle-order fought well, the skipper held things together then Bailey held his cool to finish it off with a very good 50. Maxwell played well too, very good debut for him.
Pakistan next game... Junaid and Anwar Ali in for Cheema and Tanvir. Simple as fack.
198 was never going to be enough. Pretty comfortable chase end the end but the ever dangerous Ajmal had Aus on the ropes early on.

Got to say been lookning forward to seeing this guy bowl ever since I saw him explode against India in the U19 WC final a few years back.

Incredible stuff, ridiculous amounts of swing.
Yup, if I'm correct in saying he can bowl in the 138 mark still. He can bat too, which is a good thing.
But, I'm interested in is how he has developed in terms of does he still have that swing? One thing I do know is he in the past has continually said he's always working hard to play International Cricket again. I just hope in those years gone by he hasn't lost anything.
I think Hammad Azam would be a better seam option than Tanvir and Cheema but he isn't in the squad
It's obvious that we need to drop a seamer and play Rehman. Had Rehman been in we could have won this game cos the last thing the Aussies would have wanted was another spinner.
Lets drop both seamers and play Rehman and Malik. All spin attack
Ajmal
Hafeez
Afridi
Rehman
Malik/Azhar Ali
Or call up Danish Kaneria
Robin there is also Yasir Shah who is a good leg spinner and low order batsman. Even Sohail Tanvir can bowl spin
