Pakistan Cricket Team Dropped Three Catches To Let Australia Take Control of The Boxing Day Test Match
By Sikander Hayat
No player should be allowed to play in the Pakistan cricket team if they cannot field properly. Pakistan drooped at least three catches to let Australia off the hook when Australia should have been 60/2 at one stage but two simple catches
were dropped by Umar Akmal & Misbah-ul-Haq. Then other Akmal brother Kamran Akmal dropped Ricky Ponting off the bowling of Muhammad Asif at the start of Ricky Ponting.
Pakistani players, it seems, cannot catch to save their lives and a test match in which they should have established their authority at the very start on the boxing day will now probably end up with Pakistan on the losing side.
Pakistani players not only drop catches but they laugh after dropping them as if nothing had happened. The prime example was the catch drooped by Misbah when he drooped Shane Watson and then grinned for what seemed like an
eternity as if he felt no shame at all.
I believe that Pakistan cricket board should only pick players who can and are willing to put their fullest in field and drop the
players who are in the team just for their batting or bowling and cannot field at all. Australia ended the day on 305/3.
