The fielding department has always been a weak point for Pakistan's cricket team, and recent events have brought this weakness to light once more. Their slip fielding is being particularly scrutinized; during the first Test in Perth, they were criticized on social media for several dropped catches. This fielding weakness was exposed once more on Thursday, and it cost them dearly as Mitchell Marsh was able to continue his attacking innings in Melbourne after Abdullah Shafique botched an easy opportunity.
