coming to think of it.

 

its 30 years of not even a single test Drawn.( not even a single game competed in), its like loosing all tennis matches without even picking up a set ever for all those years. 

 

I dont think there would be any other parallel in any sport ( two opponents wont play each other after such domination in any other sport). India Pak is only WC games it does to really compare to this. 

well no Aus lost to pak in UAE in the depths of ther nadir right. so Ind-Pak WC streak compares phew.

 

So in specific setting. It would be like someone loosing in clay courts to an other player always but compete normally in grass or synthetic.

The accuracy of Abbas Uncle 

 

He was so accurate that he did not bowl a single stump directed ball in the entire test series. 

 

I mean not even a single one by mistake.

1) they still retain their Test status 

 

okay jokes aside

 

1) Babar is a solid number 4 batsman

2) Rizwan is an upgrade from Sarfaraz

3) im not sold on shaheen and Naseem yet but if they are taken care of properly, Pakistan have a decent fast bowling attack for future

4) Shan Masood was decent and given their lack of options at the top, he deserves to play the next series against Sri Lanka.

I think Shan Masood has it in him.  He needs to be coached and guided apporpriately.  I know that is a huge challenge in Pakistan.

I like listening/watching to Pakistani YouTube channels on the treadmill/elliptical  obviously only when they lose,

 

so on a personal level lot of content available out there to motivate me to go the Gym.

Seriously feel for their cricket fans, this Musa and Naseem guys looked like someone who clicked 140kph with tape ball and suddenly drafted them into test team, They even dropped Amir before WC just to include that new guy who clicked 150kph in PSL(Dont know his name)..Their obsession with pace is beyond any logic.

These guys bowl a lot of noballs. By overstepping they shorten the distance and give an illusion they are super fast.

Pakistani batsmen "enjoyed" batting twice in each test while poor Australians only once----------that's positive.

Hey but their pacers bowl at 140+, right? Shaheen, Naseem Shah, Musa all bowled at 145+ at some stage with dozens of deliveries over 140. That should make you happy, no?
 

 

You must be very 'popular' with the ladies  ... as you can provide them with unlimited whine and dine experiences.

How can this be a serious thread when you're asking for positives from Australia tour.

Hey, if 2 negatives make a positive ... just imagine the positives you have from this tour.

On the OP, jazba junoon team have finally found their next big all rounder who can score 100s and 200s for fun in any situation.

They had Abbas too,who looked worse

Naseem and Musa (he is genuinely rubbish, that's one thing)have barely played fc and have no experience about various lengths to bowl in different tours

Places like Australia have often tempted pacers to bowl extremely short and fall prey to Aussie batsmen,this has happened to us everytime in the past

When did we have an all 140+ attack before?

Misbah might relax the no biryani rule now to make the poyz happy and motivated. 

 

[Forward Defence]

Yasir Shah will have somewhat revived his confidence after the century he scored(with the bat). This will probably reflect on his bowling against SL and Bangladesh. That is a positive.

golden chance to repair the head to head result.......the last thing they can brag about 

Not much difference in head 2 head record for test matches, its 12-9 if I am not wrong. Considering how notorious our 1989 tour to Pak was when our players were beaten up, umpires were sold out, bottle cap etc. its still a decent record. The tides totally changed since 2004 when Viru and co was thrashing Pak for fun. Without that Mumbai attack in 2008 we would still be playing and thrashing them regularly.

 

In LOIs however, Pak can still surprise (fluke) us due to the nature of the game.

He is very accurate. More so than any other bowler playing test cricket now. Hits a good line and length very often.  Problem is his lack of pace. He is too easy to drive when he goes full and floaty especially when there is no lateral movement. If he was 6-7 miles quicker on average speed he would have been deadly but he's just way too slow.

Before the tour he was saying that this young side might surprise Aus , Ab cricket khatam hone wali hai
