So what differentiates Pakistan batters from the Aussie ones? To me that is simply the mindset of the batters.
In summary:
1. Just like Pakistan batters, the Aussie batters survive the good deliveries. Of course, the Aussie bats also miss edges, and they gut lucky with LBW decisions, and they do fend off balls away from the fielders.
2. But when it comes time for push to shove, our batters succumb too quickly.
It's not just luck. It has to be technique. Perhaps we play from inside the crease. Aussies from varied positions outside the crease.
Or perhaps it simply is the defeatist mindset.
Is this what is the difference between winners and the also-rans?
