Please no hanging bats tonight

[Amjid Javed]

so we arrive @ perth :o^ and pakistan arent in the best of shape. however shockingly pakistan have a 100% record @ perth V Aussies.

played 3 - won 3

The key in perth is bowlers need to be discaplined, bounce will be quite steep and wicket will be pacey so bowlers need to take advantage of good conditions.

Batting wise, pakistan must survive for 1st 15 overs.. chin music will occur. also mcgrath and lee will look to probe and expose loose pakistan technnics... if pakistan repeat what they did in Aus, hanging bats out to dry and giving Aussies catching practice... then trouble looms!

|-E test of spirit and heart is truely shown on fastest pitch in world!

[the true passionist]

hameed might set the tone for hanging bats...
although i'm not against his selection but i'm not sure that whether he would do the job well...
wasn't T Umar a better pick on the perth pitch?

Will Pak learn their lessons? Taufeeq is a better batsman period, should play on all pitches.

[Rudi hater]

Oh well we will see. I dont have any hope of Pakistan winning.

I'm not too confident about our batting performance today

at least Pak are playing 6 batsmen even if they arent the best 6 they can put out.

[suhaib]

looks like we will win and keep record.

Hameed's aggresive play could be a big plus if he doesn't go chasing wide balls.

yeah at the end of the day you have to be positive against the Australians.
