***Official*** Pakistan in England

Snorter. 6:05pm - Match Review Panel find Monty guilty of chucking. World implodes.

 

[Nate]

Haha, how many run-outs and comic dismissals can one man be in?

 

[Fusion]

That run out was pathetic. We are already facing certain defeat, you would think that they would play with a bit of pride out there. To commit that type of a horrendous mistake is just too much.

 

[Jono]

I'd like anyone to look at that delivery which Monty bowled Younis Kahn with, and say Monty shouldn't be in the team with a straight face.

Unbelievable delivery, and the best thing is, he's done it before. He bowled Kaif with a similar delivery on 91 when he was well set back in India, and now he's done it to Younis Kahn.

Panesar to Younis Khan, OUT, HE’S BOWLED HIM! It’s a crackerjack rip-snorting jaffa from the Montster! Lands it on middle-and-leg, Younis comes forward, misses, and it turns to hit the top of his off stump, just removing the bail. A remarkable ball, turning out of the rough

 

[pskov]

Regardless of the crap running, you have to say England's fielding has been brilliant all match. Haven't dropped many (only Collingwood's difficult one from Yousuf that I can remember) and got 4 run outs.

 

[Nate]

Haha yeah Jono. Giles > Panesar for mine any day of the week. Giles can bat you see. Bleeeh!

Don't worry, I'm sure that when Giles gets back to full fitness that Fletcher will have his way.

Don`t forget the mistakes by Jones... oh wait, that`s right, England has Read!

Excellent effort from england, About the run out good awareness from Saj to step up to the bowler's end stumps to take a throw comming in from KP.. well done

 

[silentstriker]

Panesar to Inzamam-ul-Haq, no run, GONE! Dropped! Shorter and quicker and it spits on Inzamam who fends it off to short-leg but Bell can’t take it. Panesar is furious but he need not be. He’s just outwitted one of the best players of spin

 

[Jono]

Monty's already got Sachin out before by fooling him with a good delivery, and he almost had Inzy there. The man likes taking the champion players of spin down.

 

[GIMH]

Well, we've seen both sides of Pakistan in this match haven't we?

One more wicket and we reclaim our place at #2 in the world

 

[UncleTheOne]

I'll still be worried about him playing down under, not the crowds and how they'll get on top of him as he seems very mentally strong. But the Aussies will look to target him and go after him which we haven't really seen any batsmen do yet, could be the making or breaking of Monty.

 

[pasag]

Inzi out. All over. I was hoping there would be a more exciting finish than this.

 

[UncleTheOne]

Lol Inzy didn't even make any effort to get back in the crease. Great performance by England. First series win since the Ashes, wooooo!!!

Afridi tried to take him on and that didn't work very well for him. But I see what you mean though, would be interesting to see a whole side target him for a whole match.

Pretty exciting for me

But there is a big difference between a headless chicken like Afridi going after you and Ricky Ponting going after you.

 

[Scaly piscine]

England are back, finally.
