*Official* Pakistan in England 2010

[stumpski]

New 8th wicket record for England vs all opponents.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Yeesh this is ordinary captaincy from Butt. Admittedly we're not exactly cantering along with the rate, but he's just not giving his bowlers anything.

Not convinced with Aamer round the wicket, either.

 

[stumpski]

Worth him trying a few to Trott I suppose, but not to Broad surely.

Went to pick my car up from work and listening to tms on the way back...Henry Blofeld called Akmal 'Umer Actimel'

KP and Collingwood shown looking suitably pensive ....

Didn't realise that Blowers was still alive, let alone still commentating.

Haha, cricinfo seems to have gone back in time two days...

Lets hope they break the record partnership as for the 8th wicket as the current one shouldn't count as it was only against Zimbabwe.

Been a brilliant stand by these two and great that they have the English record.

Actually passed away a couple of summers ago, but still puts in a full shift on TMS.

Great shot to get to 150.

 

[BoyBrumby]

150 for Chris jr. Creamy cover drive to do it too.

 

[stumpski]

Imperious stroke takes Broad to 150, and the partnership past RMJ/Davis and Peel/Hawke on the first-class list. Third place now.

 

[Burgey]

Stuart Broad - when retards attack.

 

[pasag]

Have to say, this is one the great partnerships of the past decade.

Won't object to that. Whilst I enjoyed watching Clarke/Ponting in January from a batting exhibition POV in terms of basically everything else this is miles ahead.

 

[King Pietersen]

1 short of the record 8th wicket Partnership in Test history now. Superb performance.

Only has 8 months of competition

To be fair last decade could just mean last 10 years so since 28th August 2000.

World record.
