Pak win toss and field:
Mohammad Hafeez*, Nasir Jamshed, Umar Akmal, Imran Nazir, Shoaib Malik, Kamran Akmal†, Abdul Razzaq, Sohail Tanvir, Raza Hasan, Umar Gul, Saeed Ajmal
Not sure how Imran Nazir lower down the order will work? Raza Hasan plays instead of Afridi but not sure if he has been dropped?
imran nazir is back - brilliant news. as is the inclusion of razzaq and young raza hasan. nasir jamshed gets a deserved debut.
thank heavens awais zia's brief pakistan career has ended.
still though don't understand how tanvir is international standard and shoaib malik shouldn't be anywhere near this side. i suppose he's only in to replace afridi.
Awais Zia he was pure comedy.
Afridi is injured not dropped.
Raza Hasan- Good to see him making his debut. In domestic cricket he bowls a lot of economical spells. Lets hope he can do this here.
Shoaib Malik- The type of player that is required for us and was required for us in the ODI series just gone by. Fact.
Let's see which Tanvir turns up today.
Pakistan seem to have gone down the route of WI's by playing all power hitters in their line-up. Interesting.
Oh and Pakistan have really picked a poor team today with no balance. Long tail for me
Should be:
Jamshed
Nazir
Hafeez
Shafiq
Malik
Akmal
Akmal (WK)
Razzaq
Raza H/Afridi
Ajmal
Gul
And, who's made the huge difference? Umar Gul. We always need him. The rest did him good.
Tanvir gets a wicket followed up with a wide
No problem with that four because, Aussie's are taking risk. Another will fall to a hand sooner or later. There's swing in the air.
Amir, Gul in T20s and one dayers is a different cattle of fish. Also he was not resting as he was playing in the SLPL.
Good start by Pakistan. The captaincy by Hafeez has been very good.
Amir isnt it funny how they hit the stumps when there is no chance of a run out?
Well it's good that they were doing it because they are doing it right.
But, what is even funnier the fielding coach was applauding them.
Remember boys we still have to "chase" this total but we need to limit it to 130 max.
Raza Hasan bowling very well. He can hold a bat too.
oz's shouldn't go above 110 from here
we have this game
I'm still worried about that 1 Tanvir over.
How pathetic are the ICC commitee for excluding Ajmal from the ICC awards
And he doesn't hit the wicket when he needs to
