*Official* Pakistan in England and Ireland 2016

[Pothas]

47-3, our 2 best players out chasing 282 and that is gambhiring?

Ok

I said from day one.

Hey sure you might be proved right but you have been as negative as wpdavid this Test.

On day 1 I correctly suggested Pakistan had a decent first innings total. Sorry for being right.

 

[OverratedSanity]

I don't get why being pessimistic bothers people so much. The fact that it annoys people only makes me want to do it more.

 

[fredfertang]

I honestly think Eng are going to win this..... I am surprised at the pessimism.

I think you may be right, but if it was 220 we'd get there today

 

[Groundking]

A fair few runs through gully and slip, hasn't looked great tbh but looking better against spin than he did before.

Been fairly Ballance-y. Hasn't looked pretty. Got away with a couple of edges.

Cheers lads

Yasir + Warne is going to be frustrating to listen too.

Thank you Nasser for bringing the discussion back to cricket. Warne can provide such intelligent insights at times, especially about spin bowling..he started talking about what he would do with Bairstow cutting down the bat pad gap and then started talking about golf. I was waiting to hear whether Yasir had responded to Bairstow's tactic and thankfully Nasser brought the discussion back to that topic.

 

[Black_Warrior]

You have to say England are strongly in the game with 150 to go, and their main batting order still to come.

 

[91Jmay]

Ballance lost a bit of weight ? Thought he had a little puppy fat before but he looks lean and strong now.

 

[Black_Warrior]

Number 1 spinner in the world for a reason

 

[StephenZA]

The game continuous to maintain the excitement...good test match.

 

[91Jmay]

Great bit of bowling, Ballance getting slightly too far across. Shame as he played well but that is a stunning ball.

 

[Groundking]

That was fantastic, really need these two to get past 200 to have a chance imo.

 

[Compton]

Moeen that's suicide.

 

[Spark]

That is horrific

 

[StephenZA]

That was just poor..... suddenly Pakistan clear favourites. England have just shown no patience sometimes.

 

[fredfertang]

scene set for Woakes here

 

[91Jmay]

Moeen should be massive under threat. That is a disgraceful shot. 2 really good balls 4 awful dismissals

 

[Pothas]

Moeen, that is the worst thing you have ever done.

 

[Gnske]

That was absolutely ****ing pathetic from Mo, such an easily intimidated player.
