Going through Pakistan's recent progress in international cricket, it looks like the current team is not upto international standards.
Going by their recent show against Australia, it looks like there is only team competing and that is not Pakistan. There is hardly any semblence of fight, and they at the moment are struggling in all forms of cricket.
To be fair to Pakistan, they have have been badly deprived of international cricket for last 2 years or so, and they are going through some sort of turmoil. They are undergoing through some sort of transition. They have never been shy of talent but unfortunately not gelling well as a team.
Sadly, They along with West Indies and Bangladesh, form the bottom amongst the international cricketing nations.
Should Pakistan be playing more against the lesser sides, West Indies and Bangladesh, to get into the groove, before taking on champion teams, like Australia.
Australia, mind you, are also going through a transition, but they have managed to perform as a team, and maintain the usual high standards they have set for themselves, after a momentary dip in their performance. The same cannot be said about Pakistan, and they unfortunately are looking nowhere the champion side of the 90s.
In fact their performances against ordinary New Zealand side has been disappointing.
