USA going up to bat against Pakistan in Dallas right now. Pakistan went 159-7.

Pretty good crowd.

What makes a pitch difficult for batters?
Some great responses to your questions already. I'll just add that air conditions (i.e., wind, humidity) also affect scoring conditions. If there's a layer of dew on the pitch, the ball will obviously roll to the boundry faster which makes for higher scoring.

And as mentioned different formats use different balls. For 50 over and Test cricket, the ball loses its outer wax coating and starts to behave differently than when new. Bowling teams strategize around this and also try to create a "shine" on one side of the ball by rubbing it (pause) between deliveries. This affects ball flight as well.

Cricket is a science.

This would be the biggest win in the short history of USA cricket.

Is this a bigger upset than Chaminade beating the Ralph Sampson UVA team in the 80s?

I used Auburn specifically since Pakistan is super talented but they are so fickle

Apparently this upset is as massive as Pakistan’s basketball team being the 2016 Warriors

Announcers were really letting them have it. Called it terrible and couldn’t believe they were fricking it up so badly.
