The world of cricket is patiently waiting for the upcoming clash between two of the games biggest teams as Pakistan takes on the hosts Australia this Thursday.
Both sides are prepping up to take on the rivals; for Pakistan it would be history in the making if they manage to beat Aussies in their homeland. Whereas, Australians despite tasting a whitewash defeat at the hands of the Proteas, went right on track against the Kiwis and won the Richard-Hadlee cup.
For Pakistan their bowling department remains a key to their success, and much is on the shoulders of leggie Yasir Shah, who is probably the best leg spinner in the game currently.
"He is obviously integral to our plans as well," Arthur said, reported cricket.com.au. "That's good because you don't want to deprive the Australian public of seeing an unbelievable leg-spinner going about his business."
The Pakistan team depends on him (Yasir) not just as a wicket taker, but one who speeds up the over-rate that Pakistans fast bowlers have recently failed to maintain.
"Over-rates is an absolute priority for usThe last game in Hamilton we didn't have Yasir and we played four quicks because there was a hell of a lot of grass on the wicket. So that just made it a little bit slower as well, but we continue working on it," said Arthur.
