Former cricketer Damien Fleming said Pakistan had employed bizarre bowling tactics during their entire Test series against Australia, especially during day four of the Sydney game.

It meant they lost crucial time to make inroads, which eventually set the base for the defeat in Sydney and suffered a 3-0 series sweep. 슬롯사이트œBizarre tactics though (from) Pakistan. We슬롯사이트™ll look back and go, 슬롯사이트˜Gee they had a good crack at this series슬롯사이트�, particularly (at) the MCG, if they caught better and controlled their extras.슬롯사이트�

슬롯사이트œHow Jamal didn슬롯사이트™t open the bowling in this second innings, I want to know why. He hasn슬롯사이트™t bowled with the ball at all in the whole series슬롯사이트�. And Salman (Ali Agha) is their best spinning option, it슬롯사이트™s bizarre,슬롯사이트� said Fleming on SEN Radio.

It was only after lunch on day four of the Sydney Test that, with Australia needing 33 to win that Jamal was finally introduced in the bowling attack in the 20th over. But the match had already reached the foregone conclusion stage in terms of result, as Australia eventually won by eight wickets.

슬롯사이트œDo you reckon? Surely not. He hasn슬롯사이트™t opened the bowling throughout, he should슬롯사이트™ve at least gotten the second new ball in the first innings. But he슬롯사이트™s so much clearly the fastest and bounciest슬롯사이트� I didn't mind Hamza opening with him but straight it슬롯사이트™s Salman. Absolutely bizarre,슬롯사이트� added Fleming.
