Mohammad Asif to Ponting, 1 run, dropped, short ball, hooked high out to the deep, straight down the throat of Aamer at long leg who puts down a sitter

Looks like Pakistan is not learning. To be realistic enough to them, they really got to go back to the basics, as a team, as far as fielding is concerned.
Tactical blunders not withstanding, Mohd Yousuf seems to be too nice/soft a human to be a captain. If looks can kill, Imran Khan would have stared the fielder to death.

Imran Khan himself was a sloppy fielder, is besides the point.

3 wickets down... Aus 80/3 @ lunch even after Ponting being put down a couple of times..

How many catches will pak drop? They have now given a century to ponting. His resurrectiobwill start from this test. Will not be long before marquessees, baums, cricinfos start taunting that he is better than sachin.

Mohammad Asif to Katich, OUT, lbw appeal, good length delivery strikes Katich on the knee-roll, there's a prolonged shout for lbw, Asoka de Silva gives it some thought before turning it down with a shake of his head. The Pakistanis, after conferring amongst themselves, then call for a referral which shows the ball is hitting middle and leg, sending Katich on his way.

To Asoka de Silva : "unna intha velaiki thappa eduthurukanga.."

Durby-ai paarthAlE p**ing in his pants, was rtp? When faced with durby's offspin, which has been comfy for every other team, rtp failed miserably. Contrast with sachin, who scored that 241 when out of form. Rtp has always been about maximising good form, luck and favourable conditions. Only chappell and cricinfo will say such funny stuff ;rotfl:

If Ricky Faanting would have played Test cricket during the 70's and 80's (in the era of Gavaskar/Richards), I would bet he would have finished his Test career with an average of somewhere around the early 40's (at best). But then besides Faanting that would have applied to majority of the modern day leading run scoring batsmen.

But unfortunately my statement is just hypothetical hence we have to listen to the likes of Ian Saepal and Tony Kireg.
