infact akhtar's ball will come on to bat more nicely than others. this is a wicket of medium pacers and spinners.
 
If I got by clarke where he said that bowling 2nd is a good thing for the seamers, I have no doubt what so ever in my mind that we will be able to defend this total successfully.

good point suddenly this total becomes defendable now. what about due factor??
 
It depends heavily on our fast bowlers. You cant expect the spinners to strike like they did in the first match. ANd what a knock by shoaib, wow!!
 
Pakistan will defend this IMHO, afridi & ajmal need to bowl well like in the first ODI! akhtar needs to get a few wickets with the new ball

Yaar bes according to you, Pakistan has lost even before the start of their innings, LoLz even before the players entered in the dressing room to have dinner, you have predicted a loss when everone out there is saying that it will be a fighting total.

The match will be deciding with the bowling of Gul and Akhtar. If these two and Rao keep it tight early on and assert some pressure than Ajmal and Afridi can turn on their magic. However, If Australia get off to a good start like 50-0 after 12 overs then it will be Australi's game to lose as it will be too much work for Afridi and Ajmal to pull the game back. A Shehzad needs to be given a bowl too as he might cause some problemos for the Aussies.
A good innings from Afridi today and S Akhtar did really well with the bat. His real work will start with the ball.
Come on Pakistan!!

look only way for pakistan to win this is by bowling australia out. aus will be more carefull against spinners this time.. certaily i would say its 65 -40 in favour of aus. that is only coz pak bowling second underlights. otherwise no chance mate!!

YK's decision not to change the team was sensible. You cant just kick Rao out after one bad day. As much as I dont like him, the guy still takes wickets. And bowls much faster than tanvir

Tu jaaneyman haarey tu nahi hain na, tum tu hathyar he chor ker bethey huye hu like even if we bowl well Aus will chase this.It is a competitive total on a wicket which is not suitable for strokeplay.It is not 60-40, trust me its 50-50 at the moment.

If Aus makes a good start then the game will tilt towards them, If Pak gets wickets then game will tilt towards Pakistan.So its 50-50 Darling.

100% agree with this statement. he has far less off days than most, and has been our most consistent odi bowler. totally agree that although he can be painful to watch and doesnt offer blasting power or pazzazz, you cant get rid of him on the strength of one innings after a long absence of games.
 
Just got home and am watching the first half "highlights" on willow. Very disappointing knock by Butt. Put tremendous pressure on his partners. The fact that we didn't bat out the 50 will do us in. Another 20 runs here would have been extremely useful.
 
This pretty much a full house and the atmosphere is great - would be great to witness another bowling performance - ok time go guys - see you later -inshallah
 
Btw shoaib warming up with physio now - I expect a fired up akhtar today

I hope you come out of that stadium in a very joyful mood and tell us how the crowd felt when wickets of the aussies fell.Enjoy your timeman.
 
Pakistan are up against it. I don't think this is nearly "fighting" total some people have said it is.

Still, Australia's batting woes even things up a bit so we could be in for a close match.

He should be given the new ball as I feel he is able to get more of the wicket compared to Gul
