*Official* Pakistan in England and Ireland 2016

[wpdavid]

Very telling when the commentators are saying our number 4 batsmen should look to our number 8 for square driving technique tips.

Yeah, Vince is probably gone unless he surprises everyone in the 2nd innings.


EDIT
And that looks like another one gone. Pakistan's day by a distance.

Not sure what will be given off this.

 

[91Jmay]

Yeah that looks adjacent. Some really poor dismissals today, as usual.

 

[91Jmay]

What just happened?

 

[Compton]

He did, deserved the 100, gonna be an ebb-and-flow match like Lords I reckon. Just when you think one team are in the ascendency it's going to change quickly.

Can you really say a guy that played a spinner behind to a legside delivery on 70 deserved a ton?

 

[flibbertyjibber]

So how does that work then?

 

[Pothas]

So how does that work then?

Gave him out caught. Has happened before.

 

[91Jmay]

So umpire have it out caught and not LBW so the umpires calls were not out?

 

[wpdavid]

What just happened?

They appealed for caught, which was given and Moeen appealed.
Hotspot showed nothing, so the dismissal was overturned.
But if they'd appealed for LBW and that was given, it would have been umpire's call.

 

[grecian]

What just happened?

It was given for a catch not LBW. Not really adjacent anyway it was marginal on umpires call twice.

 

[wpdavid]

"can you rock and roll please"

Yeah, I love hearing the 3rd umpire's comments.

 

[91Jmay]

Fair enough then. Thought the LB looked good live and volume down.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Gave him out caught. Has happened before.

I just presumed the original decision was lbw as it clearly wasn't caught.

Then my screen froze and was given not out before I got shots back.

interesting

 

[Furball]

Your memory's playing tricks on you. In 2011 he barely made a score apart from the 294 at Edgbaston.

Maybe it's my memory playing tricks but I seem to remember Cook being on the wrong end of a couple of crap decisions in that series.

 

[91Jmay]

Find a way to double this beard and we will be in a really good position.

 

[Daemon]

man Stokes being out of the side makes a massive difference to their depth doesn't it. If Moeen didn't stand up today it could've been ugly.

 

[91Jmay]

A troll Broad 30 would be huge here.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

A troll Broad 30 would be huge here.

Very, anything under 300 and we are up against it.
