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

[Pothas]

Great man.

 

[Jono]

He barely broke a sweat, barring that huge slog sweep.

Brilliant knock.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Good knock by Cook.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Forgot about Bairstow being out there. Poor sod having to wait behind sadsack who's played a rubbish innings boosted by some Wahab Riaz and umpiring freebies.

Oh and Ireland have beaten Kenya. Congrats to them and Cook.

 

[Furball]

Brilliant knock.

That's why I'd go out on a limb and say he's our best ODI batsman.

When he scores, he scores quickly, seemingly without any effort whatsoever.

 

[Jono]

Lightning outfield. Definite value for shots on this ground.

Eng a real shout for 300 imo

 

[ganeshran]

KP is England's best ODI batsman but he hasnt been upto the mark last 1 or 2 years.

Now I'm worried.

 

[Furball]

KP is England's best ODI batsman but he hasnt been upto the mark last 1 or 2 years.

Try 4 years.

 

[Jono]

KP is England's best ODI batsman but he hasnt been upto the mark last 1 or 2 years.

Hence he's not.

 

[Prince EWS]

If Pietersen is England's best ODI batsman then Australia's best Test bowler is Stuart Clark.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Gone.

 

[Jono]

Lol @ Ravis' face.

"Yeah I should have been out ages ago, so I'll take this"

 

[ganeshran]

Bopara throws away his wicket at a juncture when Cook was accelerating quite well.

 

[Pothas]

Lol Ravi.

Usefull runs even if he should have gone early, will probably go and keep him in the side for a while though.

 

[ganeshran]

Try 4 years.

Hence he's not.

If Pietersen is England's best ODI batsman then Australia's best Test bowler is Stuart Clark.

His form has been poor but he has the calibre to play ODIs better than most others in the side.

 

[grecian]

Ah cool, the collapse starts here, how bad does everyone reckon this one will be?

Just when we look to speed up, we always hit a bump.

 

[Spark]

Well, after four years I think we're entitled to serious doubts...

 

[Furball]

His form has been poor but he has the calibre to play ODIs better than most others in the side.

You're basing that on a version of Kevin Pietersen who hasn't been seen in about 5 years.

 

[Woodster]

Yes after our recent problems in the UAE, the fact that Bopara may have scratched his way to a 50 is a huge improvement to what we've been doing, though that still won't satisfy those that are clearly not fans of his.
