Creampuff 22,628 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Pakistan looking good to get over 400 now. Given the pitch is already showing a little bit, England need a first innings lead, and they'll struggle to get it with 400+ on the board.I've cursed them Moeen gets his usual gifted late wickets to save his figures.

Creampuff 22,628 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 This is the cruel part of cricket. England knew they'd lost this game by lunch. They had to play out today, and likely have another 6 hours or so until they formally lose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangersMedia 35,961 Posted October 24, 2015 Author Share Posted October 24, 2015 What a day. We're going to smash England in this test, this is the form we've shown in the UAE the past few years, the blip on Day 5 of the last test thankfully appears to have been just that. Yasir Shah, Wahab Riaz with unbelievable bowling performances. Misbah and Younis Khan the legends with the bat. Brilliant. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CF2 WINNIE 1,006 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 England have done well to get this far today. Had Broad stayed in this would be possible. I could see Rashid seeing out the day but not with Wood and Anderson. Wood however can certainly hold a bat remember being impressed with him during the ashes. Anderson can bat but not for long period of time.Side note what a performance from South Africa yesterday may have been mentioned earlier in thread but I Think if Du Plessis hadn't been injured they could have went on to 450/60 easily.

BOOOOOM.When Anderson was dropped at short leg I thought that was it for Pakistan. England only had another 6 overs to bat. Rashid had left 2 that were just outside off then he goes and swings at that terrible decision but must have been mentally drained. Proper test match cricket was great to see.

Aye, after all the hard work he'd put in he must have been furious with himself for playing at that. Fair play to the English tail, they worked so hard. Fair play also to the Pak bowlers for not losing heart and continuing to put it in the right areas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangersMedia 35,961 Posted November 4, 2015 Author Share Posted November 4, 2015 Test cricket is amazing. What a performance from Pakistan again. England struggling to save this test match. 35-2 but effectively 35-3 because Stokes is fucked. Come on! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandyinroyalblue 16,478 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Looks like ending a 2-0 series win for Pakistan,England have had their chances in this series but Pakistan have proved the better team and the team who have been prepared to dig in and fight when it looked like England had their tails up.The England Pakistan series in England next year should be a good one.

He did have at times some awful bowling but then again when he bowled well it was extremely well. Loved the tache as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangersMedia 35,961 Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 Ridiculous innings from a guy who averages 27 in test matches. Didn't think he had it in him tbh. South Africa battling well today, 242-2. Amla notches a century and AB close to one too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creampuff 22,628 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 AB finally out. Amla's been dropped twice as well. England not helping themselves. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
