Looking forward to it @Electrifying. The last time we toured Pakistan I was 10 years old. I remember Ian Healy missing a stumping that cost us the series I think.

Or maybe that was when I was even younger.

I think you guys will win this test at least, a lot of the in form Pakistani Pacers like Hasan and Ashraf are injured.

And the pitch sounds like it will suit Aussies.

Pitch expected to offer a bit for the quicks is it ?

Yeah the Rawalpindi pitch should help the fast bowlers a little.

Great toss for you to win @Electrifying. Doesn’t look like much is in the pitch for the quicks.

Yeah he was just before my time as a player but caught Marsh bowled Lillee is pretty much a catch phrase here.

Massive cricketing family and a sad loss for Australian cricket.

Always thought those that thought he was also a nepotistic selection were being unfair.

Lol @AussieGooner the groundsmen took all the life out the pitch it seems

I don’t even rate imam that high, he doesn’t have the ceiling Babar does.

But he is a solid dependable opener.

I don’t care if that was a road.

I will defend him from the moronic Pak fans and media.

Him and Naseem, who are coming under some really unfair criticism

Nice draw I guess but that pitch was boring AF.

Hope they do better for Karachi.

In other news - England :arteta: :ozil:

Very happy with Abdullah Shafiq as opener though, hopefully we’ve found ourselves a good one.
