Well played but...

First day of the Lords test clearly belonged to Pakistan

It was a worth test match to watch, with two Muhammad's strike early and let the ball to to talk in windy, cloudy and seamy conditions just like we've here in Karachi these days, although not as cold but still, but Pakistanis pacers maneuvered the balls wherever and whenever they wanted, although fight from Clarke, Punter and Katich were seen but on the whole, it was more Pakistani bowlers on the Lords Cricket Ground than the Aussies Batsman.

Just before the first days tea, although Aussies had scored 170 odd runs but Pakistani bowlers chipped in with the wickets at regular intervals, and now the second day would be started by Mike Hussey and Australia's last batsman Doug Bollinger, who was responsible for a match saving and later match winning inning with Mike Hussey at Sydney during the new year's test match.

Now when Pakistani bowlers have fired, its time for Pakistani batsman to take the first inning leads and to give Australia something of a pressure, while talking of pressure, some pressure has already been exerted by the Aussies to the Pakistanis, not by their cricketers but by their article writers, because the incident they've been referring to was just an accident, when Muhammad Aamer being with his follow through went passed Punter with Aamer's elbow brushing him, can't they remember how they treated Pakistani players, not going too far, at the World T20 played in West Indies, Kyle Mills when his appeal was rejected in a Super 8 match played at Barbados against Salman Butt, Mills deliberately went closer to the batter to inquire, was that his domain than? He went that closer to be man-handled, so with due respect I'd just say that don't try to teach us how to treat when you yourselves are involved with it too. Sledging is also above the law in ICC's code of conduct but still Aussies have been the past masters of this techniques.

Peace!
