*Official* Pakistan in England 2020

Its a young side but there is something that suggests this Pak team are gonna get carried away very easily. Gotta hold it together like MisYou did for their younger players back in the mid 2010s. But somehow my gut feeling is that it will be another 90s for Pak. Extraordinary talent but self destructive way too often. May not even stay completely united just like the 90s side. Nothing to back this all up but a feeling I get seeing them carry on in the field. Surely they are so much in control that they can just concentrate on the game.
You say this as if Misbah/Younis aren't in charge still!

Yasir's been great here but he's actually massively struggled since that 8-fer against NZ. Like all Pakistan players, seems to overperform against/in England I suppose. :laugh:

This pitch is made for him tbf. Just has to bowl into the pitch and all sorts of weird **** starts happening.

And then there's that. What do you do against that?

So it looks like Afridi has decided to take on Hasan Ali's role as the "ridiculously annoying hateable shithouse" in the Pakistani team. There's always a few.

Whatever it takes!!!
True, but it's clear they're still a big influence and overall leaders of this group. Worth having faith in them to guide the younger hotheads in a good direction IMO.
Definitely better than not having them around but it is what I feel. :)

Jeez this looks so difficult to play on. Won't be much longer imo.

My shitty/irrelevant take of the day here is that Ashwin would still have sucked here and lost his team the game.

Okay, so the last 10 overs have garnered 4 wickets for Pakistan. An interesting period of play it is. One can just sense the pitch has started to act up.

Haha it's not the worst shout actually. Definitely not his style of pitch. Jadeja would love this though.
