That’s my opportunity to hide behind that old lady and say what I want to say.

The stupid way in which Ahmad Shahzad got out must have dampened the spirits and morale of the Pakistani team, very badly.

Mr. Ahmad Shahzad, You don’t deserve to be in a Test team if you don’t know, where your leg stump is.

So out of the 7 batsmen, one has gone down with a zero and foolishly also taking away one of the reviews..!

So actually it is two down, if later on a wrong umpiring decision goes against Pakistan, when there are no reviews left.

Muhammad Hafeez deserves to be lashed in the public NOT for getting out on zero but for being selfish (in a team game) in wasting the precious review..!

Muhammad Hafeez took the review of his LBW decision contrary to the advice of Ahmad Shahzad, on the assumption that the ball may have been missing the leg stump.

How right he was the ball, by all means was missing the leg stump…!

Pakistan has again gone defensive (as they did in Sri Lanka) with 6+1 batsmen and ONLY 4 bowlers in the 11 members team.

Firstly, this proves that you Pakistan is playing for a draw and as Imran Khan once said, the best recipe for a defeat is to play for a draw; secondly, if Pakistan has planned for a victory over the Aussies, then on an average, all our 4 bowlers, will have to take 5 wickets in both the innings, or 2.5 wickets per innings.

Let us relax and wish all the best to the Pakistani cricketers in Dubai Test match series vs the Aussies.

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”
