That's a bit different there because there you haven't bowled a legitimate ball. It really is very simple.

When our wickets were tumbling all I read was how well Pakistan bowled.
Yes, they've batted like amateurs. But what a performance this was from our attack. Take out Finn's first three overs and I'd go as far as saying it's one of the best all-round performances from them in recent memory (i.e with them all chipping in).

Gonna be un-English and give credit to our chaps for once. I'd normally say it was a piss-poor batting effort (and it was), but the attack really did bowl very well too. All good deliveries, well Swanneh's last one was overpitched if one's being harsh, but it was to a rank #11.

Whilst it was an excellent performance, a lot of the wickets were to deliveries that didn't need to be wicket taking balls. Amir yesterday, though, was bowling balls which were literally destined to take wickets. Although Yousuf and most of Swann's were fairly beastly.

Yeah much better 2nd spell from Finn, quicker and for the first time this series he bowled the right lengths. Dont think hes test class yet but certainly looks more like he belongs when he bowls like that.

31 wickets at 23.22 isn't a bad return for a bowler that's not Test class yet.

and hes been bowling at test class lineups has he?

Yep. Pakistan and Bangladesh have 2 of the strongest batting line-ups in the world; England are just making them look bad.

Hameed ran down the track and tried to smash Broad out of the ground. Unfortunately for him he missed the ball by a comfortable distance. Broad's reaction was priceless.
Imran Farhat is terrible. 7/1 Broad picks up another.

What a truly bizarre summer it's been for Pakistan. Two excellent away wins against strong teams and otherwise complete crap. They have certainly lived up to their reputation as the most inconsistent team in world cricket. On the whole though I think this summer will be a positive experience and a good platform from which to build their future team. They know they have a lot of work to do but the two wins will give them confidence that they have plenty of talent and potential too.
