[Hallatia]

Pakistan review one and it is not out. Come on England! First task is surviving the rest of the night without loss

 

[Hallatia]

England survive to stumps 36/0, requiring another 288 to win

How anyone can support those turds is beyond me lol.

Anyway, hopefully Pakistan have enough runs. Well done to Azhar Ali on his century as well. A very under-rated bat.

Poms did well not to lose a wicket last night, but the Poms will need a miracle to chase this total down. A wicket could quickly turn into 3 or 4

 

[Hallatia]

I think if the poms can lose two or less wickets per session today, they will win this game. That is a pretty big if though

Gotta love the commentary towards the end of yesterday. Ten Sports were showing a list of England's highest ever 4th innings run chases, and they showed the scorecard of their highest from 1928 when they beat Australia in Melbourne. There was a bowler surnamed Blackey who got 5 wickets, and another bowler surnamed White who got 4. Anyways, Ramiz Raja said to Ian Botham "Blackey got 5.....Whitey got 4" and there was no commentary for nearly the next minute as you could faintly hear both of them giggling away from the microphone before they started commentating again about the match like nothing ever happened.

Nice comic relief for once. Tell you what, if Ramiz said that during the Ch9 broadcast last night, I bet you all the PC ppl here in Australia would've wanted to lynch him in an instant.

I'm quite hopeful for day 4, Gul was given the first over of the day and England have survived it. Survive 90 odd more and they are in with a fighting chance for this match

That was "Hadds like"..

 

[Hallatia]

it was sort of cute. I think he is still infinitely better behind the stumps than his brother

Andrew Strauss given out, reviewing it

Gul didn't think it was all that cute..:shock:

 

[Hallatia]

and he is out. England 48/1, trail by 276

i noticed the scoring rate from both teams this series has been atrocious. Maybe Ive been spoiled and used to seeing Australia scoring 300+ in a day for the last decade or so.

 

[Horrie Is God]

Now Gul shells one..

Paki's not helping themselves..

I think it is abnormal, because I read this about Azhar Ali's 150.

Since 1990 there have been 468 innings of 150 or more in Test cricket. Azhar Ali’s innings had the lowest strike rate of any of these.
