Australia is one of the richest countries out there...  Unfair comparison. 

Should compare ourselves with Saffers...  I would sacrifice 10 modi stadiums for Joburg Wanderers lol

I would trade Modi stadium for any of these  Southern Hemisphere stadia - Centurion, Wanderers , Mt. Maunganui , Perth.

S.africa average family is 12 times higher than us. So no comparison there either. 

 

Vastly poor country. 

 

Some countries like Uzbekistan, khazaks excel in one sport which is combat due to the terrain they are exposed to and their climate.

It has 40m boundaries, totally not suitable for men's cricket.

Chinnaswamy pro max version.

Since I watched our team tour Aus, the 2012 was the one in which we struggled the most. Although Umesh, Ishant bowled with the pace and with Zaheer's skills we were doing alright in most of the innings bowling wise. It was our aging batsmen who let us down in that tour.

Pakistan has always been utterly useless in Australia. Even with far superior teams they have struggled to even make it marginally competitive. 
 

The bowling lacks the skills required for these conditions and the main reasons are the docile tracks at home, fitness (too lazy and poor diets), depth of players and quality of players. But the biggest reason unfortunately is the corruption. I really wish Pakistan was able to root out corruption but cricket is a reflection of our country - what can be expected from this team when the captain averages 28!

Cummins is such an underarated cricketer

He's definitely a modern ATG,complete cricketer

Can bat so well,can bowl marathon spells

Ups the ante in high stake games,bowls according to plans and is involved making those

It has 60-70 m boundaries and it's a very scenic venue .

 

Chinnaswamy straight hits are actually 70 m and slightly above. Only behind square is it short. 

 

It's the altitude, pace of the pitch and outfield that make it seem even smaller.

This has been a very good performance from Pakistan so far considering their history in this country.

 

Very good bowling plans to a lot of OZ batters and their batters have shown temperament .

What an ugly patta this is. 

[Number]

Other than Starc no one is finding that swing and he is struggling with the lines.

[rageaddict]

Still think a collapse is around the corner. Away teams show resistance for a few overs but ultimately the usual routine starts.

[cowboysfan]

Pakistani are really really lucky to not lose wickets.

I think last tour also Shan and Azhar had some 80-90 runs partnership for the first wicket before collapse.

Should never play so slowly in Aus, not sustainable.
