Harsh conditions for Australian cricket team.

     This morning I happened to catch a snippet of the 8:00am news on Channel 9's "Today" program, where they had a little bit of a mix up with the background footage to a story.  The presenter's spiel went something like (paraphrasing):

"And the Australian cricket team are facing tough conditions in Pakistan this week..."

     Meanwhile the footage in the background showed some soldiers, fully kitted out with packs and rifles stomping through some war torn country.
     I know Pakistan isn't exactly peaceful at the minute, but I think they might have been exaggerating the hardships the Aussie team are facing.  It got a chuckle out of me if nothing else - anybody else catch this one?
