Karachi Test LIVE Updates – What is the use of such ‘LIFELESS Wicket’? Pakistan was completely negative in their tactics on DAY 1.
The unveiling of another dull wicket and a growing preference for bizarre, negative tactics has ramped up the pressure on Pakistan.
The first Test in Rawalpindi was one of the most dour affairs in recent memory, played on a lifeless pitch prepared to nullify Australia’s bowlers.
It was expected that the wicket for the second Test in Karachi would produce a more lively affair, but day one was once again marred by a slow & lifeless wicket.
Will action pick the pace on DAY 2 – Follow all LIVE Updates.
