King of Pancake pitches Younus Khan flops again. Overrated flat track bully.
Over 100 tests, averages over 50, hasn't played at home for as long as anyone can remember.

Averages 50+ in all four innings in tests too. It's just the usual criticism levelled at a lot of Asian batsmen

Come on Felix... Steve Smith/David Warner perhaps but have a look at his record.. Yes lots of runs on the flatter pitches but look how old he is and how consistent he has been before he played on those middle east pitches.
I don't mind banter but even.you can't really believe he is mainly a flat track bully??

As I said pakistan to be knocked over tonight, was always on the cards given their fragile batting line up

8 down with 12 overs to go, chance for them to send them back in and knock over 2-3. Now that would be pretty embarassing

I can't believe how poorly an international team are playing the short ball, someone will get seriously hurt the way they are taking their eyes off the ball.

Reckon wade should spend a bit more time concentrating on his keeping and a little less time sledging the batsman. Aussie commentators making excuses for him

sarfraz was struggling with the bounce as well...guess 'modern' day keepers are not that good.

Hi @Felix Tito mate...How do you explain his average of 50, IN England? Didn't realize English pitches were flat, and that the likes of Anderson and Broad on English pitches are so easy to "bully".

He also averages 79 in India (where so many of the world's best are struggling). How many batsmen average 50+ in swinging AND spinning conditions?

Sarfaraz not out 59, SR 92. He should be batting up in the order, move Azhar to #7 spot.

I understand that Asian players perform better on "flat tracks" where it's easier to bat, but why do other countries (which are not considered flat tracks such as England, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand) players struggle scoring runs on flat tracks given it's easier and they score runs in tougher conditions?
