Australia vs Pakistan: Rawalpindi Test wasn't a one-off match. Australia and Pakistan are once again playing a test match on a flat Karachi pitch and it's only getting worse for the fans to watch the historic series unfolding in an anti-climatic way. 

A highly anticipated historic tour that saw an Australian team landing in Pakistan to play a cricket series after 24 years began poorly with a drawn test at Rawalpindi. The flat pitch in the 1st test saw massive outrage that even PCB president Ramiz Raja had to send in a video message clarifying the board's moves. 

It seemed that Karachi might offer some good test to Australians and once again excite the Pakistani fans, who have come in numbers to watch the two sides play. 

However, the Karachi pitch is no different than the one at Rawalpindi. Australian captain Pat Cummins luckily called the right side of the coin to win the toss and bat. The pitch offered nothing to the Pakistani bowlers as Australians piled on runs without getting dismissed. 

On Day 2 of the match with more than 171 overs being played, the scenario was so bad that the crowds had to plead with Pat Cummins to declare the innings. Australia's score was reading 476/7 when a banner from the crowd said, "Cummins Bhai Please Declare Kardo(Cummins brother please declare)." 

Seeing that banner on the screen, Cummins had a cunning smile on his face and nodded looking at the camera, refusing to let Pakistan bat knowing Australia too will have to struggle to get wickets on that flat Karachi pitch.
