***Official*** Pakistan and England in UAE

[Athlai]

Fawad Alam would've scored a ton here.

Hes no Usman Salahuddin or Mohammad Ayub. Those two are the real world class acts.

Nah Fawad is a class above those two.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

why the hell is Gul getting the ball all the time and Junaid Khan not getting a bowl?

Might get your wish now with Gul looking injured.

 

[Xuhaib]

Gul does a Zaheer?

 

[Howe_zat]

I love a soul-destroying grindhouse partnership in the morning

 

[Z-Man]

Gul is harmless.
Misbah **&&*^&*%^

 

[Howe_zat]

Misbah?

 

[Xuhaib]

A soft dismissal will lead to a collapse.

 

[TT Boy]

It was said after the 1st test that Gul was world class. Showed here why he is nowhere near that. No pace, no threat, no consistency.

 

[Uppercut]

A soft dismissal will lead to a collapse.

So this is what it's come to, hoping that Cook or Trott play a loose shot when well set.

 

[Z-Man]

Junaid has bowled only 6 overs yet while Umar is trundling at the other end.

Misbah doesn't have B plans sadly.

Haha and that's exactly what happened!

 

[Spark]

Now here comes the real challenge. The English middle order vs. the spinners.

I and Black_warrior didn't support him... rather we called him a 'pathetic' bowler who is over-rated in tests.


WICKET!!!
I was just going to say Abdur Rahman was also under used after seeing Hafeez bowl 19 overs.

 

[GIMH]

Pietersen will let loose today

 

[Xuhaib]

150 wickets @ 33 hardly top class but is certainly test standard. Shame he's best we have at this point of time.

 

[Howe_zat]

Bugger. Done a good job though.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

They needed that, good partnership though.

 

[NasserFan207]

Top delivery that

 

[Uppercut]

The game desperately needed that.
