[Cricket] Pakistan-England Test Series

[um bongo molongo]

Hope that there isn’t criticism of the approach even if we lose. Stokes and Baz have turned a moribund match in to an exciting one whatever happens now and deserve credit for that, no matter what the result. Though I suspect they are very much ‘no s***s’ anyway even if there is criticism.

Ali hit on the hand by Robinson, retired hurt. Hand in the ice bucket time if only bruised, but if it is a broken bone then they are 3 down...

 

[Machiavelli]

Boring old test cricket…….

And pointless, doncha know

 

[big nuts]

A very generous declaration. I feel like another 5/10 overs would have been perfect.

Let’s see what happens tomorrow.

A wicket for the evergreen Jimmy Anderson straight after lunch.

176-4 and its Rizwan who nicked off to Pope.

Mohammad Rizwan c †Pope b Anderson 46 (92b 6x4 2x6 ) SR: 50

All four results are possible.

England continue to push for a win when very few captains in the history of the game would be keeping attacking fields with multiple catchers in place.

You have to love the approach, win, lose or draw, we're here to win and entertain. Fantastic cricket.

Anderson strikes - now 4 down with 167 to get. No matter who wins this has been a great Test Match.

Amazing there is a change of a result after the start. Entertaining stuff...

 

[Titanic]

Ollie Robinson into the attack... and a wicket straight away

Plenty of close catchers and it pays dividends.

Saud Shakeel c sub (KK Jennings) b Robinson 76 (159b 12x4 0x6 ) SR: 47.79

198-5

Is light going to be an issue here?

 

[Bold Seagull]

Is light going to be an issue here?

Only if we get a couple of wickets. Going to get these comfortably as it stands you'd feel.

 

[Titanic]

Is light going to be an issue here?

30'ish overs left, 94 to win, doesn't look like it,

 

[The Wizard]

Game could be getting away from us here, very telling than Stokes won’t bowl spin, can’t even tie up an end.

 

[CHAPPERS]

New ball still to come mind you

 

[Titanic]

Leach into the attack... and a wicket... LBW review...

 

[Titanic]

oooh... it's going over

That is a BIG moment.

 

[The Wizard]

Fudging DRS, thought that was plumb…. And I think Salman did as well

Maybe they’ve programmed the Wacka pitch into the DRS

 

[Bold Seagull]

What has DRS ball tracking done there!? That is BS, no way that is going over.

Side on that is never going over in a million years.

 

[CHAPPERS]

England looked pretty amazed that one was bouncing that high.
