The Sheffield Shield matches begin tomorrow. The first half of the tournament happens till first week of December. After the Big Bash in Dec-Jan, the tournament resumes on January.
30-Oct — 03-Nov-14 - 6.00 GMT Pakistan v Australia 2nd Test, Abu Dhabi
Australians clearly failed the spin test in the first match of the series. But I am not going to pick Pakistan as outright winners just yet for this match.
After a short break of 3 days, Cricketing action returns. November schedule is totally jam packed with a lot of action from various international series and Ram Slam T20.
