Lakmal, Eranga, Pradeep.

Not exactly a scary sounding pace attack, but they really did the job.
Are these the faces of the future?

 

[TheParraboy]

the enigma that is Pakistan

can beat anyone anywhere on their day

of course can crumble like a cookie anywhere as well

 

[Twizzle]

as long as there are bookies around its just hard for me to take them seriously

their rep proceeds them

Good god that is an empty stadium

The stadium would be as dead as the contest.

I watched some of the Pakistani first innings - Pradeep and Lakmal were bowling at the time. They were bowling extremely well. Great lengths, good seam position, and they were both going at 140ks. This Pradeep fellow, isn't he from the same ilk as Malinga - as in had no traditional cricket background, but played a tape ball version of the game as he's from rural Sri Lanka?
