Johnson with an absolute sand shoe crusher, plumb lbw

I read on the commentary that Hafeez reviewed it! WADH, was there any doubt with it at all?

Yep waster of review,

Umpires had the finger up before the guys even appealed

He reviews after discussion with other batsmen

Was hitting middle 10cm up the stumps

Thanks mate, yeah just started watching it and saw the replay, what a waste if a review! Ridiculous!

agree. looks like a nicely balanced side with everyone in form

must admit i havent seen much of okeefe, but he looks pretty decent. reckon he would be an ok one day bowler too - why did we persist with doherty?

Watch O'Keefes balls closely especially on the club and his got one of the worse ball rotations for an international spinner I have ever seen, u couldnt scramble the seem even more if u tried

I hope he does well and I like but this is my first real close look at him and I now have my doubts

2/47 after 25 overs, exciting stuff

I think it has been great. Pakis has to dig in after losing two early ones and they did that.

Yeah very slow, I'm fairness they were 2/10 and in fairness all 5 of our bowlers have bowled very accurate

Commentators mentioned the last two times the pakis have played at this ground they have won the toss, batted and then got bowled out for 90 and 167 in their first innings

Great post!!!

If MJ does not fire we could be left with a non threatening attack
MJ
SIDDLE
OKEEFE
MARSH
LYON

Going in with 3 front line bowlers may cost us in this game

PA 2/47 [27 ] zzzzz
exciting stuff

Rogers drops Azhar after a set plan creates a chance

Was a toughish chance admittedly

Very tough chance, would of been outstanding to have Pakistan three wickets down at the end of the session. Still a good start by the Aussies.

Have to keep the board ticking over, even with just singles, putting up the shutters is fine when you lose a couple of quick ones but if then you lose 3 or 4 more you can find yourself 6 for not very many which has obviously happened here before with them, 3 runs in nearly 10 overs in ridiculous

We absolute bag the daylights out the pakis when they have big collopases generally playing already shots, the one time they have actually knuckled down, been discipline and people are still bagging them

I'm sure after lunch they will have a more attacking intent

What injury does James Pattinson have at the moment?

Would be in my best 11 if fit

PA 2/65[37]
Both sides doing OK after lunch so far
PA have not lost a wicket
Marsh has not suffered an injury

Heard the other day he wont be back until the New year, not sure what the injury is

Most boring first day of a test match I can remember
