Can't see any reason for him been in the squad if not going to play. Mukhtar already dropped is a shame though, bit of a hack, but deserved this series I think.
Shezhad still in the squad though.

Yeah still not really nailed the format, Immad Wasim a big loss in this side.
Poor drop that from Riaz, normally pretty safe in the field.

Halo has done real well here. Really pleased with how he batted once Roy was out. Didn't play any big shots for a while and build a partnership with Root. In the past he'd have slapped in to long on or something and left two new bats at the crease. Has knocked the ball around well for someone who doesn;t have the best record in rotating the strike.

Is that a typo or a real nickname?
If the former, I will adopt it ceaselessly, if the latter, it angers me and I never want to see it again

meh put so much effort into getting a 100 that you could tell he was going to have a slog afterwards. Shame as he could have done some real damage if he was a bit more selective - but that hopefully will come next time.
Played spin well for the most part. Less convincing against pace. That flat footed waft outside the offstump is going to cause him lots of problems.

More a ironic nickname I thought up on the spot rather than a typo or an official nickname afaik.
Good chance Taylor gets demoted down the order here (if they haven't said that already on the tv)

this is probably enough against the rabble that is Pakistan's batting, but this is a great example of why England's inability to play modern day ODI cricket comes up again and again. Just a boring pedestrian team. How do you not make 300 considering where they were placed?

Less than a run a ball in the final 10 is just lame

yep, and its even worse when they had wickets in hand.
They are the opposite of box office.

Btw, despite England being crap at hitting, I think it might be safe to say now that it's clear how big an impact 4 players outside the circle had in those crazy powerplays we regularly got in the last 2-3 years.
