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

[Agent Nationaux]

We always make rubbish players look like Bradman, Warne or McGrath.

I tend to not take Botham's opinions on cricket too seriously, I mean we are talking about a guy who doesn't think fitness is important for a modern cricketer.

Good knock by Ravi...christ did I really just type that?

Yeah, actually got less fluent as he went along though

 

[Z-Man]

Misbah...
Please give over your captaincy in ODIs. Please, Afridi was better than this :\

 

[MW1304]

Was about to come on and moan about our batting at the death, but a couple of nice shots there.

Seems a decent score, hard to tell.

Edit: Easily the best we've played Saeed Ajmal this tour, as well.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

So 251 needed to win. Looks really difficult after taking into account our last ODI innings.

 

[wpdavid]

As for our other opener, I think for the first time that they might actually drop Pieteren when Buttler is fit.

With Kieswetter opening again?

 

[Pothas]

With Kieswetter opening again?

Yeah, I'm not convinced by him at all but he is of no use in the middle order.

 

[Prince EWS]

With Kieswetter opening again?

Well, far better idea than batting him at 6.

 

[slowfinger]

What's wrong with Pry-zee-bye byes? (Prior) In all honesty Kiesweter isn't a bad shout but not at 5. Opening or nothing IMO.

 

[Xuhaib]

I thought England was suppose to dominate the tests while we were suppose to wipe floor with them in the odi's. However I will take a test series whitewash against the # 1 team over a random odi series defeat.

Have a little faith, fol!

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Come on Xuhaib you are Ghambiring. They have only won 1 ODI.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

The speed gun may not say it but Anderson looks a lot quicker than Gul.

 

[screamingfields]

And I'm back. Cook made a century. Good. And Pakistan batting. Usually not so good.

 

[slowfinger]

I want that David James thing as my avatar.

 

[slowfinger]

God, up the tempo a lil why don't ya

 

[Uppercut]

250/3 after 50 is the score of a team lacking in confidence. Fair enough, really, given how ****e they've been, but it does waste an awful lot of batting.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Pakistani crowd gets crazy when we start winning. lol

 

[slowfinger]

Pakistani crowd gets crazy when we start winning. lol

Even after every 4 we go mental

 

[screamingfields]

Pakistan batting tactics. Try to get runs. And unable to score. Get singles then. Not enough to win. Get as many runs in the last overs and hope. Doesn't work.
