| Former Pakistan captains urges for total revamp of Pakistan Cricket #PakvsSA Posted: 26 Feb 2013 12:45 AM PST
Stating that Pakistan went into the series unprepared for the demands of the Tests, which is the longest form of the game, former captain Aamir Sohail said that Pakistan’s defeat was predictable and the team paid the price for the lack of Test cricket which was advantageous for the well-equipped South Africa, the Daily Times reports. A former chief selector, Sohail also underlined the need for Pakistan to take proper measures at the grassroots level, saying that Pakistan is not doing anything to remove the technical faults of an emerging player whereas South Africa have followed Australia in conquering the world with their work. Urging Pakistan to focus more on Tests, another former captain Rashid Latif said that Pakistan should have separate players for Tests and one-dayers, adding that the poor show of players who feel that they can play in all three forms is a problem for the team’s performance.
However, Pakistan now has the chance to regain some pride as they take on South Africa in two Twenty20s and five one-day internationals, the report added.

| Misbah-ul-Haq blames lack of test cricket and the conditions for series whitewash #PakvsSA Posted: 26 Feb 2013 12:10 AM PST
Stating that the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) should consider the fact that the lack of a proper schedule for the squad is responsible for the low amount of Test cricket compared to other countries, the captain said that his team plays only four or five Tests a year, Sport24 reports. Misbah also said that the lack of Tests is worrying for developing good Test players and for making sure that there are a suitable number of players for the team, and added that the team also needed different pitches to play on for adapting to the grounds at Australia, South Africa, New Zealand and England. Stressing the need for good sporting pitches for fast bowlers, Misbah said that such pitches are necessary to help his team with the proper technique and for adapting to different conditions.
Misbah also lamented his team’s inability to adapt to the pace and bounce of South African wickets, and held responsible the different texture and softness of the ground conditions for the poor show. According to the captain, it was easy for South Africa to exploit the conditions at their home grounds, and combined with their might, they could quite comfortably whitewash Pakistan in every department.

| India crush Australia by 8 wickets in 1st Test, take 1-0 series lead #IndvsAus Posted: 25 Feb 2013 11:40 PM PST
The Indians took about 25 minutes in the morning to finally bring an end to the stubborn last-wicket partnership between Moises Hendriques (81 not out) and Nathan Lyon (11) as Australia folded up for 241 in their second innings, leaving the hosts a small victory target of 50. The hosts lost both their openers Murali Vijay (6) and Virender Sehwag (19) before overhauling the target with more than two full sessions to spare. Cheteshwar Pujara brought about the winning run off Nathan Lyon to trigger off scenes of celebrations in the galleries and the Indian dressing room as the players congratulated and hugged each other.
It was a commendable show by the Indians, who have been under pressure of late following a series of indifferent performances in recent times, as they dominated the game right through at the M A Chidambaram stadium where the conditions suited the home team. While captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni expectedly got the man-of-the-match award for his game-changing knock of 224, off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin scalped 12 wickets in the match to also play a stellar role. The margin of victory could have been bigger had the Indians managed to get rid of the last wicket pair on Day 4 itself and had they not lost both their openers despite chasing a small total. The two teams will now travel to Hyderabad for the second Test be played at the Rajiv Gandhi International stadium from March 2 to 6. This was the third time that Indian spinners managed to take all the 20 wickets in a match. The first time that Indian spinners bagged all the 20 wickets was at this same venue against England in 1972-73 while the second such instance was against New Zealand in Auckland in 1975-76. Resuming at the overnight score of 232/9, Australia could add just nine runs to their tally much to the relief of the Indians who had a frustrating time trying to dismiss the last-wicket pair. It took the Indians just nine overs on Day 5 to put an end to Australia’s resistance when Ravindra Jadeja broke the agonisingly long last-wicket partnership between Henriques and Lyon. Lyon, who showed a lot of grit and temperament to hang on, was dismissed by left-arm spinner Jadeja, caught by Murali Vijay at short-leg. Henriques followed up his first innings half-century with another gutsy unbeaten 81 and together with Lyon added 66 runs for the final wicket to take the match into the fifth and final day and prevent India from recording an innings victory. Chasing the paltry 50-run target, India suffered two early blows in the form of openers Sehwag and Vijay, whose flop show with the bat continued. The opening duo of Sehwag and Vijay put on 16 runs before the former was the first one to depart. Vijay started his innings with a bang, smacking Lyon straight over his head for a six, his only scoring shot of the innings. But that was all the local boy could manage in the innings as he was caught by Henriques at mid-off off James Pattinson when he tried to go a big drive in the next over. Cheteshwar Pujara joined the action after Vijay’s dismissal and had to go through some torrid time in the first few deliveries he faced from off-spinner Lyon. Pujara gave a half chance to the Australians which the visitors failed to pounce on. The ball hit the top of Pujara’s pad and then the glove before crashing into wicket-keeper Mathew Wade’s mid-riff as the batsman tried to pad Lyon away in the fourth over. But there was more drama in store as Sehwag (19) also returned to the pavilion, edging a Lyon delivery to Michael Clarke at first slip in the second delivery of the ninth over. Sehwag’s dismissal marked the arrival of Sachin Tendulkar at the crease and the champion seemed in a hurry to finish off the chase as he clobbered Lyon for two consecutive sixes in the first two deliveries he faced in the innings. Tendulkar seemed to be fine touch as he timed the ball perfectly and provided some entertainment to the few thousand spectators who had come to the stadium to watch India’s victory. Pujara and Tendulkar ensured that there were no further damage for India as they got the required runs in 11.3 overs.  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| India vs Australia Post Match Presentation – 1st Test – Chennai 2013 #IndvsAus Posted: 25 Feb 2013 09:50 PM PST Dhoni: ‘I have spent a lot of time in Chennai. I made my debut here. It was good to see the crowd coming to watch this match. It was important to play some big shots. The motive was to play some shots and spread the field. The first partnership was important. Tendulkar and Pujara batted well. The partnership between Kohli and Tendulkar was important as well and it gave the rest of the batsmen a good platform. The lower order contributed importantly. Ashwin bowled brilliantly and he was well supported by Harbhajan. He did not use much of his variations. He bowled in the right areas and varied his speed. It is important to be focused as the series progresses. I never expected I will get a double ton as I never expected to play a Test for my country.’ MS Dhoni is the MoM for his sublime knock of 224. Michael Clarke: ‘Full credit has to go to India. Dhoni played some outstanding cricket. The knock changed the game totally. Ashwin bowled really well. Henriques played very well on his debut. We have to improve certain areas in the game. The wicket was very good. It looked a lot worse than it played. The second innings was tough but there are no excuses. We have to play really good cricket in the second Test.’  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| AB De Villiers lauded debutant Kyle Abbott as ‘dream performance’ #PakvsSA Posted: 25 Feb 2013 07:05 PM PST
According to De Villiers, Abbott had delivered a performance that a captain dreamt of, adding that the seamer has a lot of control which pressurises the opposing batsman, Sport24 reports. De Villiers, who scored his 16th Test century on the same day and took South Africa over their initial target of 300 runs in their first innings, also said that Abbott had made important breakthroughs in the match by hauling in a number of big wickets for the Proteas. After South Africa made 409 in their first innings, Pakistan were bowled out for 156 and captain Graeme Smith made the surprising decision to enforce the follow-on, the report added.
