*Official* Pakistan in England and Ireland 2016

What a beat up
What a crappy team Pakistan is.
What is the world record total?

Reckon Athers might be on to something there. Where the batsmen is at the point of release should help dictate a wide.

Buttler needs to stand still here, Wahab is bowling line and lengths so the scope with fine leg back is poor thinking.

From my keyboard to God's ears.

 

[WalkingWicket]

This is ludicrous. Since that Azhar over it's been nuts.

Its going to get broken today.

 

[91Jmay]

That is where Buttler is the world's best. That low full toss/yorker over extra cover.

 

[Nauq]

What bowling from Wahab Riaz, I can't even get angry at that.

 

[harsh.ag]

Who would have thunk the world record falling to England! Hales, Root, Buttler, and Morgan, take a bow!

 

[91Jmay]

Buttler hasn't actually been at his best today, Missed balls that on top form he'd cream.

 

[Stace]

Morgan stopping Jos from getting a ton.

 

[91Jmay]

Missing the record here would be a bit annoying having got so close.

 

[91Jmay]

Amazing batting. World record!!!*

*Buttler actually batted quite poorly last 5 overs

 

[GIMH]

Only got home for the last three overs. Glad I got that at least. Remarkable

 

[Howe_zat]

Oh

just **** working, honestly.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Crap last couple of overs but squeezed past the record & a nice quadruple nelson.

Second half of Buttler's dig has been thoroughly mediocre by his (admittedly lofty) standards. He was 53 (22). To only add another 37 off 29 from there would be quite disappointing for him.

Seemed like the batsmen were at the wrong ends for a chunk there: Buttler couldn't hit Riaz but was monstering Amir, and Morgan was somewhat of the inverse.

 

[Prince EWS]

Thoughts on a team of Roy, Ali, Root, Morgan, Bairstow, Buttler, Stokes, Woakes, Plunkett, Rashid, Wood for the next game?

Madness as Hales has averaged over 60 this year at a strike-rate of 93 in ODI's, also 3 tons in his last 12 innings.

I agree that he has been quality in ODIs this year and should definitely be in the team long term, he just looks so out of nick at the moment that a time away from the spotlight and feeding himself a diet of county medium pace may do him good for the rest of the season.

Three days ago.

Never forget.

Buttler lost his shape so, so much in that innings. But it's incredible that he can look insanely rusty and still plonk out 90* (51).
