England getting a beating vs pakistan.....oh boy..never expected this..
ÂÂI can't wait for the second innings to begin!What is the record for the consecutive number of times a team gets dismissed for under 300 runs in a test? We are at 11 now.  Now I know how DC was created.
Eh? We had a home series with WI in between. Forgot that?ÂÂ
But for all those bashers, how many teams stood up against the might of the Aussies and the South Africans at their home in the last few years? Agreed that these 2 series are making things look very bad but I'd discount the England tour - that is a team which in favorable or similar conditions to their own routed the Aussies and are likely to do so to other teams as well. But I still have doubts about their ability to play top flight swing bowling - they struggled against Zaheer the 3 hrs he played and he would have made an impact on the series and I'd be very interested to see them play Bracewell from NZIs Varun Aaron part of this test squad? No harm in letting him rip and have a go in tests ÂÂ
And let the Aussies, SA and England come here and beat us convincingly or even go head to head with Pakistan at UAE (they're playing seriously good cricket there) - something we did to all 3 during the rise to the top (though did not win a test series except against England). To be honest, every team is a tiger in their backyard only - the 3 teams mentioned above have a distinct advantage in that the playing conditions and the wickets are more or less the same in their countries. ÂÂ
And if the Pakistan batsmen manage to do decently well in England, I think they have the bowling resources to test England ÂÂ

So with pak winning the first test one can conclude that our team made the english look good.
Also maybe we are making australia look good.
Incase they play with any other country they still might lose pretty bad
it is with only our dismal performance that we made england look awesome.
Same was with the west indies where they struggled against the bangladeshis but put up a brave fight against us.
