Totally agree, but im not looking at it from a point of Pakistan winning the series or even a game.
The way i see it Australia are expected to win on ability and recent form of both sides.
Australia have a much better line up, thats fact, but if Pakistan can keep Australias score ticking over slowly as has been the case with the exception of Ponting, Australia will be forced to either bat for 2 full days or declare much less than their usual 450-550 first innings totals.
They then need to then take 20wkts in 3 days against some good batsmen on what should still be a decent wicket.
As i said, depending on where your team is at, a draw can be as good as a win
