***Official*** England in Pakistan

[Barney Rubble]

Pietersen dropped by Kaneria at mid-off, apparently it was a dolly. We all know what happened last time he got dropped.......

Hehe, sounds like it smacked into his chest and his hands were nowhere near it.....shocking.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Brave move - Shoaib Malik on, with Hair umpiring. If he's called, he's a specialist batsman for the next year.

 

[What-A-Player]

so KP is more let-off 'less

 

[Barney Rubble]

Kaneria half-misses another one off KP......this getting ridiculous.

 

[ClownSymonds]

Catch goes down again. Pakistan have only themselves to blame for not putting England away.

 

[aussie]

great resistance from Bell & KP, just what the poms needed, but they still have a lot more work to do for the remainder of the day to get england back into this game...

It was an absolute dolly. They don't come much easier than that one.

So Pieterson has had 3 lucky ones till now. Two Kaneria missed. And one off the bowling of Afridi. Youhana wasnt in the right position and it was very difficult chance in the slip. Also 2-3 crap shots against Akhtar in the first hour.

Bell was lucky because of the Akmal error as well.

England lucky but Pakistan really have themselves to blame. You dont become a top notch team if you dont take what comes your way, let alone the talk of creating chances in the field.

 

[ClownSymonds]

It seems like the only way Pakistan can get wickets is from simple catches to only their 4 or 5 best fielders and bowled/LBWs.

Wow...just caught up with the score....just the session England needed. Obviously there is a long way to go ....but if they can get a bit of a lead even 30-40 runs in the first innings ....they may find some magic when they bowl 2nd time around.

Whats the pitch doing?? Sounds like a few chances went down...

 

[Zinzan]

Blaze.....did you hear deaker tonight??

No missed him! What did he have to say?

 

[Pratters]

The money of bumbles is on a draw.

 

[Zinzan]

He had a shocker....Lost da plot about Aussie and the W.C voting. I take it your aware of the radio sport playback on their website.

Anyway....I shouldn't really be off topic on this thread

Lets just say he was getting abit too emotional....you could hear him spitting into the microphone

The pitch is offering bounce and turn for the spinners, but not much for the seamers. Four or five chances were missed, including two incredibly simple ones. England should be down at least another two wickets and short a lot of runs.

The money of bumbles is on a draw.

Gilo to take 8-43 in the second innings and England to eke out a three-wicket win.

You heard it here first (and probably last)

 

[Barney Rubble]

So's the money of mine.

How are you getting the coverage in the States Clown?? Is it on a pay channel or something....We get no coverage from NZ

 

[luckyeddie]

Shabbir Ahmed was reported because he is a very dangerous bowler & English batsmen know that they don't have the confidence to face him.In the similar way,Afridi has been banned but he is the major hurdle in England's way to win the series in Pakistan.They'll still lose the series despite all their cheap tactics.

Oh, do us a lemon.

Shabbir Ahmed was reported because, under pressure, he has the worst bowling action since Sir Francis Drake. When he keeps his elbow straight, he's as dangerous as a rabid fish.

 

[Zinzan]

Back at last......Goodish progress by England especially after the 2 quick wickets in a row
