Poms lead series 2-1

Should win the series here

Hows Younis Khan going in this series? 20.33 average from the first 3 tests

Match fairly even at this stage.
Eng all out 328.
Pak 1/3
Another ton to Moeen who saves Engs arse again down the order. Surely he is better used up the order at 5 or 6 ? That way they can get a proper spinner in and stop wasting time on Vince & Ballance.

Our batting is awful.

Cook is a plodder these days. And Hales, Vince and Balance are bog average.

We'll get absolutely reamed 5 nil again fown here in the next Ashes.

If only we had an all-time great batsman to call upon. Oh wait, we do...

sure did 101no

Pakis slightly in front after day 2, 12 run lead. Poms need to skittle the remaining 4 wickets. Pakistan would love a 100 plus lead.

They had a 100 run 1st innings lead in the last test and still lost. One can never be sure of the Pakies.

Younis Khan is a great, no doubt. Certainly better than Clarke without the fanfare. Without ANY fanfare actually.

And Pakistan are the best Test team in the world atm. They're easily the most balanced team going around.

As for England, my goodness that batting line up is worse than Australia's. Awful awful awful.

Moeen Ali is legit our no.2 batsman.

No sarcasm there Tommy, I have been a big fan of this guy since the first time I saw him bat in Australia

My apologies then.

He's certainly a remarkably consistent performer.

So composed and measured. A classic test match batsman in an era of sloggers who don't appreciate the value of patience in the purest and truest form of the game.
