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

[stumpski]

Who are you thinking will make up the overs?

No Bopara.

Here's your answer - KP into the attack early.

And that too turning the ball

Azhar Ali in 29 off 38 balls shocker!

 

[uvelocity]

poms dont have their hearts innit today

 

[stumpski]

It's common for the team playing for pride to do a bit better, in any case it's a second-string attack. Have to learn to do without Swann sometime though.

 

[screamingfields]

Dernbach is slower than expected, needs more time than Briggs.

I would recommend ANY left handed spinner to watch this video and learn.

Dernbach should look at this and learn.

atleast its Asad and Azhar doing the scoring in a dead rubber and not Farhat or Younis.

 

[Xuhaib]

Azhar Ali in 29 off 38 balls shocker!

incredibly determined, will not surprise me if he converts himself in to a useful odi cricketer.

 

[Pothas]

Yes Danny! Does not get much more illustrious than getting a mighty Akmal as your first international wicket.

Very poor shot it was to.

 

[Jarquis]

Oh Danny boi

 

[Jono]

What's part on this pitch fellas? I'm thinking 260?

 

[Pothas]

Yeah probably about right, Ali playing one of those innings where he could easily wind up being blamed.

 

[Jono]

Pitch is a little slow at times. Pakistan only playing one seamer a good call imo. May prove crucial.

Your first time viewing a UAE international eh?

 

[Jono]

Haha. I think this pitch is slower than the 3 previous ODIs. Definitely slower than the Abu Dhabi games.

 

[Furball]

Hahaha, so if Malik hadn't been given lbw then it wouldn't have been overturned?

That is nonsense.

 

[NasserFan207]

Can't blame PEWS for running out Akmal tbh.

He had it coming.

 

[theegyptian]

haven't really followed the series until today. How have England fielded in general in this series? better than Pakistan?

 

[Howe_zat]

About 25 short of par, this. Pakistan will have to bowl us out to defend it.

 

[Xuhaib]

Misbah might be turning in to a victim of his own success the over cautious batting and heavy reliance on spinners which has served him so well over the last 15 months has been the main undoing of Pakistan in this series.
