What a slaughter, not even a contest. SA were right, Aus are only really good at front running cricket. If they get on top they are very good but they are poor at coming back from being behind. Also interesting to see how much we are going to miss Harris, doubt he will be back.

Batsmen have been very poor, can't deal with the pressure. Only Warner has looked comfortable.

Pakistan have done exactly as i predicted. You only needed spinners to do the talking, and considering aus dont have quality spinners it was always going to be difficult in getting the batsman out. Hasnt been much for pacers so at least couldnt expect pacers to play a major role. Hopefully this series has done enough damage to the fitness of the Aus bowlers, cause India Aus series starts in like 3/4 weeks.

If Aus had to break down their woes of playing spin, they first need to understand why maxwell was picked as test batsman. The solution of not being able to play spin isnt necessarily get a slogger.

This series for Pak has been one they needed badly after a poor couple of months. Will atleast give them confidence ahead of WC.

MISBAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Duncan, what's happened to Haris for you to say that you doubt he will be back?

Think Harris knee's have caved in. He is a class bowler and clearly missed. Our batters used sense in this series. They say off MJ (with the exception of Hafeez ) and then cashed in on the other bowlers. I'm hoping this is the Grant Flower effect here and it's hard to argue who else it could be.

Viru,

You clearly didn't watch the game or any of the other 5 games played at Abu Dhabi. There's plenty there for the fast bowlers - imran and rahat were getting plenty of reverse swing... Anderson, broad, steyn, Morkel, Junaid, bilawal have also had success there. Facts that cannot be negated. I disagree with this notion that it's got nothing for quickies.

Aussies have been grind to the dust and absolutely humiliated to the core. At times, Pakistan took the pi55 and even misbah got the fastest century ever to further wound them

Also, next year Pakistan visit austraila. There's no doubt the aussies will be looking forward to that one and getting their own back. They'll whistewash us via bouncers

Australia might win

They won't win but they may get themselves a draw. These two have fought well

Robin pressing the panic button already

Good session for the Aussies there. Still 5 wickets in 57 overs plus new ball should be enough for 2-0

3 wickets in 3 overs

Series win

Great performance from Pakistan and finally this Aussie hoodoo is over.

3 Tests
2 T20s
5 One dayers coming up against NZ on these tracks

We smashed them to the dust. Unbelievable series victory, wasn't even a contest in the end. Positive batting has led to this, years gone by we just strolled around the 2 rpo but have finally got some mental strength from somewhere.... Onwards and upwards

Pakistan series total: 1603-21

Australia series total: 1026-40

ohhh dear. Dear dear deary me!

Babar & Yasir Shah combined bowling figures in this Test series :-
193.1 - 29 - 576 - 26


Chucking cheats.... Ban them for a fairer game

you are coming out with some stats today. I wonder if the ICC are watching Yasir and Babar's action to find a reason to ban them.

Most Test wins as Pakistan captain:

Misbah Ul-Haq: 14*
Javed Miandad: 14
Imran Khan: 14
Wasim Akram: 12
Inzamam Ul-Haq: 11

Latest ICC Test rankings:

South Africa
Australia
Pakistan
England
Sri Lanka
India
New Zealand
West Indies
Zimbabwe
Bangladesh

Bet India are gutted they didn't get to play West Indies at home. Normal service will be resumed in Australia for them.

Kash,

England whitewashed
Aussies whitewashed
India avoiding us

They might be the big 3 off the field, but on it they are nothing but a bunch of Mickey mouses who have their tails between their legs when away from home. When they lose, they whinge about cheats and change rules (% funding allocation) to suit their needs... Or impose £millions of law suits against poorer nations ( West Indies)........ South Africa are team to beat in my opinion

Well said A14. Unbeaten at home (wherever home is UAE, NZ, England) since 2008. No team can match that.

Kash, I've always said I'll support Pakistan and Pakistan only..... After watching this series I think Shahid Afridi have no place in ODI team now. He has done nothing with his bat since years and Yasir Shah is much better leggie than boomboom.....

I'd give Shah a chance in ODIS vs New Zealand - see how he goes

Aus just beat SA in SA ....

Bullies. Wait until you face England

Course they did Duncan. I was more referring to asia which reads as L L L L L L D D W L L L D L D.
