*Official* Pakistan in England and Ireland 2016

Ball still moving about but Finn made that look better than it was. We are 100 short of good score I think. Broad our first duck of the series.

 

[Howe_zat]

Since 300 is a line of magical hinderland which has a land of bounty and wonder on one side and burning hellscape on the other, we can feel pretty good about today.

Could do with bringing in a few fielders just to tempt Ali with the option of going aerial.

 

[91Jmay]

Big juicy carrot here. Moeen might fancy him

Looks like bringing on Yasir is meant to do exactly that.

 

[91Jmay]

Amazing way to bring it up. Amazing knock. Superb.

 

[GIMH]

Go on Moeen! Just got home in time, what a geezer he is

 

[Howe_zat]

If you didn't enjoy that you have no soul

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

in style beard

Moeen at 6 - average 21, 0 hunderds
Moeen at 7 - average 114, 3 hundreds
Moeen at 8 - average 28, 0 hundreds

it's kinda weird

 

[Pothas]

Love it.

 

[MW1304]

Looked pretty dire this morning, only inching towards par thanks to this guy. What a man.

 

[DriveClub]

Looks a classy batsman for someone coming in at 7/8, wonder why he gets a lot of stick

 

[wpdavid]

Wonderful way to get there, and richly deserved.

 

[Cabinet96]

Was behind on my Sky feed so couldn't post but damn I enjoyed that Moeen/Woakes partnership.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Well done Moeen. Saved us here.

Now slog another quick 20 and get out to let us bowl at them tonight.

Moeen at 6 - average 21, 0 hunderds
Moeen at 7 - average 114, 3 hundreds

Doesn't have to try and play like a top order bat but also has more time to bat so less likely to get out on the heave because his partners are running out?

 

[Howe_zat]

Looked pretty dire this morning, only inching towards par thanks to this guy. What a man.

Given how many people thought we should bowl this morning and how many chances have been put down I think we've got a par-ish score anyway.

 

[grecian]

Is Warne talking about a declaration yet?

 

[Cabinet96]

Need a larger sample to think there's anything to Moeen's position averages tbh.
