    I like the Lochie and Santner combo first change, doesn't allow the batsmen to easily get into a rhythm.

    Sometimes I wonder if I'm watching the same game as the comms. Several times they've said Kane and Guppy "weathered the initial storm" from the Pakistan fast bowlers before picking up the pace.

    No, the only storm was in the form of Munro and it was Pakistan doing the weathering. That gave Kane and Guppy the chance to take their time and get their eye in before putting the pedal down.

    Astle gets Sarfraz and this is turning into an absolute hiding.

    That Windies team was awful but they also won a test in England recently. We were ruthless.

    I can't believe that happened but then again it does explain England's struggles in Oz. The hosts have one all time freak, three or four really good test players and a handful of okish test players. It's not a great Australian team by any stretch.

    54/5 but that little Fakhar is hanging around.

    A very, very good bowling performance on the back of a very, very good batting one. You’d feel is going to become even more oppressive for PAK as the pressure of the chase takes its toll.

    Santner taking a bit of a hiding in the last over.

    Spinners getting smashed ( relatively speaking )

    Probably not smart going with two spinners (although the BCs are still cruising). Another pace bowler, maybe Matt Henry, would have been good in hindsight. Comms are suggesting Munro might get an over or two.

    I think overall we are pretty good. We have a chance against anyone at home. Last summer, however, should have told us that we are a fair bit behind South Africa although we weren't embarrassed against them. Overall we are probably about 5th in ODIs and Tests.

    I hear he’s not very keen on training. He’s a lazy Fakhar.

    According to WASP their chances of winning have doubled from last time I looked ... now at 2%

    Rain and they're off.

    166 for 6. Nowhere near the DLS score of 227.

    up

    Law 29.4 applies, but basically if the ball strikes the wicket, it's up to the umpire to decide if that's sufficient.

    I've watched heaps of the Australasian summer of cricket and the quickest bowler I've seen is kiwi.

    Albeit with a basin tailwind

    Saw a few clocked at 149km.

    I remember Doull talking about the speed ball radar and how it gives three readings. In NZ we take the middle reading, whereas Aus take the fastest. So if this was in Aus they'd be clocking him above 150km.

    I think his highest was 153.4 actually. Much better than Milne so hopefully he can become a genuine wicket taking threat rather than just a bowler we select because he is fast.
