3rd Test: England v Pakistan at Dubai (DSC) Feb 3-7, 2012

[Hallatia]

A lot of turn on offer now, these wickets very bitter sweet for England, mostly bitter, what the pitch is offering them well hurt them very soon

 

[Horrie Is God]

This pitch has come alive..

The Poms are going to have fun when they face the spinners..:sarcasm:

 

[Hallatia]

which will probably be with the new ball

 

[Horrie Is God]

They are mad if they don't..

 

[Hallatia]

Abdur Rehman gone for 1, Pakistan 346/7, lead by 304

 

[Horrie Is God]

Possibility of this being over tonight..

 

[aussies1st]

That is showing how well Khan and Azhar have batted.

 

[Hallatia]

to be fair, it didn't start turning like this til late in the first session today

 

[Hallatia]

interesting stat. Azhar Ali has now faced over 420 balls in this innings, and only one person has faced more balls in the entire series (other than him of course) and that is Misbah with 482

 

[Hallatia]

Saeed Ajmal goes down for 1, leaving Pakistan 350/8 at tea.

 

[Hallatia]

Possibility of this being over tonight..

if England can get the last two wickets before then

 

[Hallatia]

Azhar Ali's innings finally comes to an end after making a career best 157 (from 442 balls). Pakistan 363/9, lead by 321

 

[Hallatia]

Monty takes a 5fer, Pakistan all out for 365. A lead of 323

 

[Horrie Is God]

Umar should've swallowed that..

 

[Hallatia]

I hope England compete, wouldn't even mind seeing them win. Cook got a life there so now he should go on and make triple figures

 

[Horrie Is God]

Once they get the spinners on this will be over in no time..

 

[Hallatia]

don't really understand why they haven't brought a spinner on yet? But I still hope England put up a fight and miraculously bat all day tomorrow

 

[Hallatia]

Hafeez into the attack, I believe for the first time this match

 

[TheParraboy]

I had a dream last night poms will score 322

 

[Hallatia]

and lose by 1 run
