As I said in England tour, its very important for Pakistan to win the toss in next two test. If we win both tosses, we will win one of the test, could go for both...MCG Test right now is lot more important, winning that toss is well absolutely must. Win the toss bat first, don't loose any wicket in first two hours, for guys like Azhar and Sami, that's not a whole lot....They are good at not giving away wicket in first spell, no matter how tough conditions are...I would like to see Auses bat last in next two tests, that will make this series really interesting!!!
Pakistan has find a method to counter Auses, grind them down, see off Strac...Both Strac and HW bowled 35+ overs in last innings, that's a lot of work load...
Sami, Azhar, Misbah are grinders....Misbah needs to step up, he has not here nor there, maybe Shafiq play one up and Misbah one down, that could work well for both of them...
Babar, YK, Shafiq, Sarfraz can play shots, provided not exposed too early and fresh bowlers... Babar need to focus more on cut and less on drive, this is not Asia, Cut is more important than Drive, just wait for right length(you will get those deliveries)...
Shafiq and YK are both good players, their problem is too jittery early on... Need to really focus on defense, foot work and balance early on... No jumping around for YK or playing infront of pads, Shafiq need to play with staight bat a whole lot till he is settle....
In bowling we need right arm bowler... Once we have runs on board, Auses will be tested better. And bowling second means Yasir is in play lot more (last) plus more effective in day 2/3 of first innings... This create much better balance for over bowling attack...Another reason why Toss is so important
