Australian pace attack since sandpaper scandal

[Savak]

Starc certainly has looked very mortal and ordinary since the 3 disgraceful bunch of cheats were caught red handed. The question has to be asked as to whether his stats and records in the last 3 years has been inflated due to the prodigious amounts of reverse swing he enjoyed due to the use of sand paper.

Plenty of sand for the Aussies here. Should smuggle some in

No idea how much of what Starc, Hazlewood and co were able to do was due to ball tampering and how much was not...what we do know is that this is a flat, dead pitch. Wahab will look just as bad I can almost guarantee it.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Classic case of throwing stones while your house is made of glass.

 

[MenInG]

Well we are judging them on a fast-bowler's graveyard like Dubai?

 

[Hasan123]

I would wait until till they play in Australia before making judgements.

 

[FastBowlingAllrounder]

Can't judge him on a pitch like this. But, he barely made an impact... Expected him to do better.

 

[Ab Fan]

We should wait before we make such assumptions.

Mind you their heart wasn't in the game in 4th test against SA because of the embarrasment they put up before that. They just wanted to come back to their home and here they have bowled on first two days pitch of UAE.

However, they have been a disappointment outside their home conditions till now. So, lets wait for next year Ashes now.
