Buttler captaining!

Buttler captaining!

Such a warm up game thing to do.

Still get to watch him bat so can't complain

 

[Howe_zat]

Why doesn't Asad Shafiq get a gig in LOI?

 

[Howe_zat]

Runs have stalled a bit since Root came in and that was a weird sentence to type

 

[Howe_zat]

So I know I'm the only one watching this now, but when you watch the highlights, look for the shot Vince played at 12.2 overs. It was ****ing mint

 

[Pothas]

Never been so nervous watching someone bat in a Twenty20.

I was just going to do that but it turns out Cricingif isn't covering this game. And give they are covering the BPL, that's saying something.

 

[Pothas]

Bugger.

 

[Howe_zat]

10 an over gets 164. Looking like a pretty middling score.

Pakistan chasing over 160, what possibly could go wrong?

 

[Niall]

Buttler on the charge

They've actually played a proper lineup this time with Shehzad and Malik in the side. Reckon we could still jag a run out from somewhere in that middle order, mind

Buttler getting going...

 

[Howe_zat]

Well you don't expect that from an Akmal

Well played

Fair point, Malik brings some common sense to this batting line up.

 

[Howe_zat]

When that scoop fails it looks bloody ridiculous, as though he's deliberately played it to the keeper.

Plunkers sent in doesn't say much for Woakes' one day batting. Bloke has 8 first class tons, give him some credit

 

[Howe_zat]

Phew, Pakistan nearly made it through a whole innings without a big fielding ****up

Tanvir has had some amazing drops over the years, definitely have to try and dig some out of them out later.

 

[wpdavid]

Won't bat out the overs at this rate, which is always a bit embarrassing. Although we'd have probably settled for this before Billings and Buttler got going 15 minutes ago.

 

[Howe_zat]

Anwar Ali is gun.

 

[Niall]

On Tanvir drops in the field

that is all time great for all the wrong reasons.
