satyam1729 Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 Not like Pakistan was bad all this decade. Pakistan had a really strong Test team in the mid of this decade and never had the luxury of Australia touring Pakistan' date=' when the rest of the teams had no issue touring Pakistan. The luxury that India got and the place where India was able to beat Aussies was only at "home". I can easily fancy Pakistan chances had Australia played Pakistan in Pakistan b/w '05-'06, afterall we rolled over the pumped up Ashes winners back then. And excluding our current squad we have always given great fights to the rest of cricketing nations when it comes to Test cricket.[/quote'] Didn't OZ smash you 3-0 in UAE ? Pakistan have won only 1 test series against OZ, SA and IND in last 20 years. And lol at Ashes winner. They have not won a series in India for 26 years. Now time for Pakistan fraud has passed.

satyam1729 Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 you can't play short ball' date=' there's no promising pacer to be seen anywhere near your squad, and your performance in last 4 ICC events (excluding '07 toontee-toontee) have been absolutely miserable, so yes you need to get serious. :winky:[/quote'] And Pakistan have won all those tournaments. :haha::hysterical: Link to comment

SJS50 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Since after the 60's Australia have actually played Pakistan more often than they have played India. Of course they invariably play a 3 Test series against Pakistan while against India these used to be 5 and have now settled at 4. In the 70's they played 4 series against Pakistan and only 2 against India. In the 80's 5 against Pakistan and two against India In the 90's, 4 against Pakistan and 3 against India. Even in the current decade, the first half was okay with 2 series against Pakistan and 3 against India. But its the gap between Pakistan's tour of Australia in 2004-2005 and the next series between them that came five years later (2009-2010) again in Australia that has caused the frequency to drop so dramatically. The reasons for this are well known and do not need to be restated but surely these have nothing to do with Pakistan wanting to play weaker sides or Australia wanting to play stronger ones.

Yeah this is why India played 11 test against WI pace quartret and Pak 1 test match. Pak only play weak teams. Link to comment
S.Bond Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Yeah this is why India played 11 test against WI pace quartret and Pak 1 test match. Pak only play weak teams. How many tests did pakistan play agaisnt NZ and bangladesh recently? I don't think Pakistan plays only agaisnt weaker teams,they play agaisnt whoever they can in this difficult time for them.
