    *OFFICIAL* England in Pakistan 2024

    Pakistan more or less on course to match England’s first innings total I’d say, so England still on top for me. Third innings could be a proper bunsen though, so England not out of the woods considering they struggle against spin

    *OFFICIAL* England in Pakistan 2024

    What would be a good score here? Pitch already turning a little bit already which bodes well for England bowling 2nd and 4th with 3 frontline spinners

    *OFFICIAL* England in Pakistan 2024

    We’ve got a lot of bowlers who can bat these days, in theory we could have had an 8-11 of Woakes, Carse, Rehan and Atkinson (the chances of that ever happening are minute, but it would be fun!)

    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    Is that even possible these days? Outside of the County Championship, does any FC comp allow overseas players?

    Great work @Silver Silva, be interesting to really dig into those numbers, is anyone else on the other team making runs or is he batting on minefields?

    *Official* Emerging Nations Cricket Thread

    Some pretty cool news from the Women's Big Bash League, Perth Scorchers have signed Indonesia's Ni Made Putri Suwandewi. I remember there was an Indonesian raised player in the IPL (albeit he was born in India and is very much of Indian nationality), but I'm guessing she is the first Indonesian...

    *OFFICIAL* England in Pakistan 2024

    The difference between Crawley and Pope is that Crawley at least has offered some level of consistency, he often at least gets starts and gives England something of a platform, whereas IIRC Pope is statistically one of the most likely top order players in the world to get out in his first 20...

    In all seriousness, this is an England setup who has played Pope as wickie before, and played Dan Lawrence as opener, they have no reverence for the specifics of those roles lol

    *OFFICIAL* England in Pakistan 2024

    Probably thinking that it’s a ‘win the toss win the match’ kind of game, in which case the plan is to bat and bat and bat and then when the bowlers finally come on, it’ll spin. Might struggle early on if it’s not spinning, but they might struggle anyway to chase anything in the latter part of...

    *OFFICIAL* England in Pakistan 2024

    Oh they're trying their best alright, but on a fresh pitch, how much can they do to make it turn? Pakistani wickets are generally naturally flat
