How good was Cummins' delivery to jag across and take Asad Shafiq's middle stump?

Aussies have bowled better on the first day of a Test. Pitch had the usual Gabba bounce and carry but little venom. But added pressure in the second session did bring a clump of wickets. Some good contributions with the bat from Pakistan. Tomorrow looks a pivotal day in the series. Early wickets and then get in on this deck which has plenty of runs in it if you bat sensibly.

sheesh 0 for 70 to 4 for 78 shows how good that opening partnership was!

pakistan making a lot of false shorts if its on the fuller side of a length (or the red zone)
if its on the shorter side they look quite comfortable leaving

fine margins for error!

2-75 Australia fight back

it looks a tricky pitch for visitors actually. Lots of bounce and the old ball is still seeming a bit. Lets see how pakistans middle order cope

looks tricky for batting but pakistan have been very good

we are probably a fraction short given the bounce in the wicket

still you expect teams to just wilt at the gabba
