Predict the outcome of the 3-match Test series between Pakistan and Australia

[MenInG]

So they have arrived - and now we can move onto cricket!

3 Tests:

March 4-8: First Test, Rawalpindi

March 12-16: Second Test, Karachi

March 21-25: Third Test, Lahore

What will be a realistic outcome of this series?

 

[MenInG]

Wow [MENTION=2016]Rana[/MENTION]

3-0 Pakistan?!

 

[Afhan Ali]

2-1 Australia

 

[Rana]

Wow [MENTION=2016]Rana[/MENTION]

3-0 Pakistan?!

InshaAllah

I believe Pakistan will clean sweep them

 

[Mean&Green]

Pakistan are very weak with no quality spinners either Australia will white wash us 3-0

 

[Varun]

Pakistan 3. Australia 0.

Reason: it's not December/January of any given year.

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

3-0 to Pakistan. They gonna devour the Aussies.

 

[FollowThru]

Going to be a tough series for both teams and results will be highly influenced by reverse swing and Azhar Ali.

Pakistan should win the series.

 

[sweep_shot]

Pakistan have home advantage but Australia also have a strong team.

I think Pakistan should win it 2-1.

 

[Manunited18]

I'd love to see pakistan win. Australia has all bases covered, therefore 2-0 or 2-1 Australia.

 

[Mesozoic]

Australia has better batsman, better fast bowlers and momentum with them. That would cancel out Pakistan's home advantage. Should be a close series..

I'm going 1-1 draw

 

[PakPremi]

2-1 to Pakistan. Pakistan in their customary way will flop in atleast one match, win easily one match, and huff and puff before winning another.

 

[Concerned]

Does Pakistan even have a middle order?

 

[PakPremi]

Does Pakistan even have a middle order?

You mean top order surely?

 

[Villager6964]

This is gonna be an epic series.
Pakistan doesn't have typical asian conditions like india or Bangladesh.
Spin bowling does not matter much here.
Pakistan have the best pitches in the world.
Australian fast bowlers are gonna be very handy on these pitches.
It's gonna be an exciting series.
I reckon 2-1 Pakistan.

 

[Jabo]

draw

 

[castortroy]

Think the Aussies are favourites.

Far better bowling line up and batting

Aussies also have the better spinner in lyon

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

3-0 Pakistan.

 

[Savak]

Think the Aussies are favourites.

Far better bowling line up and batting

Aussies also have the better spinner in lyon

Lyon depends a lot on bounce. He will not get that Pakistan. I bet there is a big variance bw his Australian and Overseas record

 

[Markhor]

Pakistan 1-2 Australia

Can our batsmen score 350+ against that Aussie pace attack ?

 

[szrana007]

Pakistan without Faheem and Hassan are a poor test side. So 3-0 to Australia easy.

 

[HappyWarsFan]

Pakistan without Faheem and Hassan are a poor test side. So 3-0 to Australia easy.

Both will be back for the second test.

 

[JibranAnsari]

2-1 pakistan inshaAllah

 

[HappyWarsFan]

2-0 to Pakistan.

 

[Ab Fan]

2-1 Pakistan.

 

[James]

Will be closely fought.

2-1 Pakistan I think.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Initially i was going to say pakistan 2-0 but with Hasan Alis injury for 1 test atleast i can see it being 2-1 pakistan.

 

[Afzal_K]

Pak win first 2 and then lose 3rd one

 

[ali_zee]

2:0 to pakistan

 

[PakLFC]

1-1. Aussies will win the first one. The second will be a draw then Pak will have the last laugh

 

[Maher96]

I feel like it will be a interesting series. Pakistan could win this if they play to their A game.

We will win the first two test and wrap up the series.

 

[sindhiboy]

Pakistan should win it, but can't really say
Steve Smith is in bad form and this will be marnus's first test in asia.
but there isnt much to be happy about if rauf and wasim jr. will be the bowlers the supporting shaheen

Rawalpindi is probably Australia's best chance of winning tho.

 

[Mainul]

For me it will be 1-1

 

[MenInG]

Pakistan's fast-bowling options looking dicey at the moment, think a 2-0 towards Australia looking likely

 

[shamaan]

I think it will be a draw now that Hassan Ali and Fahim are out of the first test. 1-1

 

[Devadwal]

2-1 to Australia

 

[Slim]

Our bowling lineup is weak in the first test.

I am hoping for a 3-0 but predicting a Pakistan 2 - 1 Australia kinda result.

 

[Sam99]

Pakistan 2-1 or 3-0

 

[Shafi]

With so many injuries it would be 3-0 for Australia.

 

[MenInG]

With so many injuries it would be 3-0 for Australia.

Very far-fetched I feel.

2-0 or 1-0 to Australia a possibility.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

I don't see Pakistan winning this series. I see a 1-0 or 2-0 to Australia.

Pakistanis are scared of Warner.

Babar hasn't sorted out his spin batting.

First choice team is not available to Pakistan.

 

[Omer2002]

I agree lahore and karachi are flat so draw is possible but with current team and injuries i would say 1 0 or 2 0 to the aussies

 

[TeamPak95]

I predict 1-1, but I want 3-0 Pak

 

[Maher96]

Can’t wait for the test matches to begin. Hopefully this game does start unlike the last one.

 

[Snowflake]

2-0 to Aus. No chance in the first game due to our poor bowling line-up... and I do not trust this team's ability to bounce back.

 

[Heisenberg111]

2-0 to Pakistan

 

[MenInG]

so 2-0 now possible for Pakistan?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Australia really need to win a toss and bat first because I dont see any chance of them winning otherwise

 

[sweep_shot]

Pakistan should win the series. They were the better team during 1st Test.

 

[MenInG]

Pakistan should win the series. They were the better team during 1st Test.

2 spinners for Australia now - they seem to have got the lay of the land so expect the World's Number 1 Test side to win this Test.

Any other result would be an upset.

 

[Amjid Javed]

MIG,

1) Australia have never won in karachi
2) in last 5 tests - (4 UAE and 1 here) Aussies have failed to take 20 wickets

so they can pick 2 spinners etc.. they still need to stop our batsmen piling runs up. Are average 1st inns score in the 5 tests is 450, you rarely lose tests with such 1st inns totals.

 

[Zeshan547]

2 spinners for Australia now - they seem to have got the lay of the land so expect the World's Number 1 Test side to win this Test.

Any other result would be an upset.

Mening sir, have some confidence, so Pak winning in Karachi vs Australia where Aussies have never won in nine attepmts and lost five of those will be an upset? Just hope its a reverse jinx comment you made.

 

[James]

1-1 now perhaps?
