England in Pakistan

[ZexyZahid]

Inzamam gets his century!

93.1 Flintoff to Inzamam, 1 run, runs it to square third man, brings up his CENTURY!!, 2nd of the match, 24th overall, he becomes the leading century maker for Pakistan in Test Matches!

england cant win this now. lead is 280 at the moment. most likely draw.

if they play it like one day then they can win.

Inzy declared! Thats stupid. England have an excellent chance now.

Inzy declared! Thats stupid. England have an excellent chance now.

you must remember it is a 5th day pitch and it may occassionally stay low and turn for the spinners. England do have a chance but only if they bat aggressively and not lose too many wickets.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Actually this target is very big. Highest chased target is 188-7. I don't think England can win this. A draw is most likely.

I could have put my whole house on him declearing. He just made his 100 and he knows he can win the game. Although it is good to see him make a competitive declearation.
Here is another theory why he did it, he had no faith in Kaneria didn't know how much longer he would last so by declearing now the public will see it was a competitive declearation. Whereas if they were bowled out people will say he was playing negative. Thats just my opinion, and once again good to see Inzy declear.

Holy &^$$$#%$*&^*&%*$^%#!!!!!

What a great delivery!!

 

[ZexyZahid]

Wow! Trescothick is bowled!! England really need to survive now.

For England to win they need 284 in less than 65 overs at a run rate of 4.37. On a 5th day wicket this will be hard to achieve.

And now they only have 9 wickets, you can take off winning I think England will be lucky to get a draw.

You can cut about 12 overs from that cause of bad light. England will be happy now only to get a draw. And Rana was bowling also well in the first innings.

It depends, if the umpires offer it England will stay on. So unless it gets unsafe for the fielders we will get those 12 overs. That is assuming England can still win it. If not they will take the light.

Assuming from the last over I saw England would be more then happy with a draw right now. But we'll see how England take this approach after lunch.

Some Pakistani are thinking that Inzamam has played for himself and needed to declare sooner. For me it's strange to think that way, because he got Pakistan out of a difficult position. He did the right thing.

I dont think he has only played for himself. His innings has taken England chances of winning almost out of the game and has left Pakistan with an outside chance!

He did the right thing, unless they decleared at the start of play there isn't much else they could do. Inzy still had to make sure he set England a competitive total as 200 odd is gettable as all you need is one big partnership and you are well on your way to victory.
