Thread for Pak vs SL series

[Deep Dey]

First topic message reminder :

Discuss here about Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Series,2011 in detail(only international matches(Test,ODI,T20))

UAE is the adopted home for Pakistan's Matches as well as bring back Cricket to UAE. This will surely one of the most tiring series of the year because of the heat in UAE. Going by last year's Pak vs SA series here, you can expect bowlers will have no rejoice. More importantly curators of India will be jealous of UAE curators because pitches here are evn more flatter than India.
Last year even DAle Steyn was useless here.
We can expect huge hundreds scored by batsman and huge score by both teams.
