***Official*** Pakistan and England in UAE

[Furball]

Played Prior.

 

[ganeshran]

Prior to score a half century..

 

[Z-Man]

Gul has a decent Yorker doesn't he?

Hes just lost his charm. Doesn't ball the yorkers anymore and imo doesn't deserve a place in the Test XI

 

[MW1304]

The old frustrating England has turned up today I see, just have to hope it hasn't ruined the match for us.

 

[Cevno]

Anyone know which ball they are using?

 

[smash84]

how did that doosra miss the stumps?

 

[wpdavid]

What a fine knock by Prior - the number of times he makes runs when we're struggling is quite something.

Kooka.

 

[Jayzamann]

So this is what it looks like to have a keeper that doesn't act like a numpty with a bat.

Yeah; the bloke is just a quality bat. Absolutely one of England's best five batsmen IMO, and I wouldn't say he could "only" achieve 5th either.

OH WAIT

 

[Cevno]

Kooka.

Ah! Thanks.

 

[Scaly piscine]

I'll be amazed if it doesn't get banned.

I'd be amazed if he does get banned. At best his new even-more-blatantly chucked delivery will get banned. Which will be of minimal effect anyway.

 

[Howe_zat]

Are you suggesting that he's better than the one you routinely say is crap at every opportunity, and the opener that clearly hasn't been on par with his team mates for nearly three years?

My my.

 

[Pothas]

Don't know about going beyond 5th but no doubt that is where he is right now and that's why I love having him at 7.

My my.

Yeah I am!

I think he's pretty close to all your other non-Bell batsmen as well though tbh.

 

[turnstyle]

lolz at the appeal that came straight out of the middle of the bat. Bet they would've reviewed it too.

 

[ganeshran]

Yeah I am!

Bell is crap? He is one of the best strokemakers in the lineup.

 

[NasserFan207]

Yeah, appealing is hilarious at times.

 

[Prince EWS]

Bell is crap? He is one of the best strokemakers in the lineup.

No, I meant Bell that pretty conclusively #1 in my eyes; 2-5 are pretty close, Strauss is 6, then daylight, then Morgan.
