Pakistan OWN the Aus top order in ODI's,in the World Cup they had us at like 3/50 and these two games have been the same

Pakistan >Donkey top order > Warner's giant bat

Of course we're f**ked in India. Every merkin is f**ked in India, because India prepare scrub wickets that ensure India win.

Unless you've grown up batting on sand like most of their players have you're on a hiding to nothing. I'm not really sure why this is news to people.

Reckon we can win a test? 3-1 would be a good result, depressingly enough

Sunil Gavaskar grew up playng on sand but than carved up the Windies on crazy wickets he wasn't used too,sounds like excuses for overrated donkey Aussie players.

I reckon our best chance is to jag a dead rubber. I don't think the groundskeepers will make the mistake of preparing a reasonable wicket like they did for England

I think if we had picked another quick we'd be a shot...spin is not our strength and the Indian batsmen play it so well that Lyon and SOK would probably struggle to run through an under fifteens side.

Grow up on shit wickets, play well on good ones. Grow up on good wickets it's a lot harder to play well on shit ones. Its a lot easier for good players to go from shit wickets to good ones and have success than vice versa.

I expect to be pretty shitty with some terrible batting as well, don't get me wrong. No doubt at least two muppets a game will throw their wickets away. But I also don't think it'll matter.

Actually most of Sunil Havascars runs against the Windies were before they amassed their great pace battery, before then they were mostly stocked with plodding spinners.
