Pakistan vs Australia: Fans Train Guns On Rawalpindi Pitch Curator With Brutal Memes

Pakistan's first home Test against Australia in nearly a quarter of a century has not been the best advert for the longest format of the game. It has nothing to do with the quality on show from both teams, rather the pitch at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium has left a lot to be desired. Australia are on their first tour to Pakistan since 1998, having previously refused to visit over security fears, and the Test series was being seen as a chance for Pakistan to test their skills at home against one of the top cricketing nations. However, the first Test has been disappointing with the pitch offering nothing for the bowlers.

The batters of both teams have had a field day, with the bowlers completely at their mercy.

With the scales heavily tipped in their favour, the likes of Imam-ul-Haq, Azhar Ali, Usman Khawaja and Marnus Labuschagne made merry in Rawalpindi, piling on the runs.

Pakistan made 476 for four declared in the first innings while Australia scored 459 all out. The run fest meant that the Test ended in a drab draw. And this hasn't made too many fans happy, with some taking to Twitter to slam the pitch curator.

One fan even held a placard at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium with a message for the pitch curator.

Others expressed their frustration through memes. We tried to pick the funniest ones:
