"Slowest Pitch Ever": Pakistan Team Director Fumes Over Practice Wicket In Australia
Pakistan's Director of Cricket Mohammad Hafeez was a frustrated figure while sharing his views on the pitch used for the team's four-day practice match against Australia's Prime Minister XI last week. The match, which ended in a draw, was played at the Manuka Oval in Canberra from December 6-9, ahead of the three-match series between Australia and Pakistan, starting December 14. Hafeez criticised the pitch and conditions laid out for Pakistan's warm-up game in Canberra, saying that it was the "slowest pitch a visiting team could ever play on" Down Under.
