England in Pakistan

[Bilal91]

nah... i think it will be a draw and a very close and exciting series...

England will struggle with their lack of talent in the spin department (bowling, and facing)

Not seen Alex Loudon obviously.

Got alot of potential as All Rounder imo.

when KP went to India with the A-team he averaged about 133 ans scored 500 runs in 3 innings iirc.

The first ODI of the tour has become a fund raiser for the Earthquake relief fund. Players from both sides will donate their match fees and the gate reciepts will also go to the fund.

In addition, the ICC will donate ?373,000 and all PCB employees will donate 4 days wages.

Yeah, here is the news: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/4331460.stm

A good thing. I hope a lot of people will go. That will benefit the people there who are suffering.

Tremlett is out of the tour aswell, so Jimmy is almost certain to play if we play 4 seamers. Maybe Plunkett will get a chance. 90+

I hope Plunkett does get a chance.

Well i think Anderson will replace Jones, if not him then Udal.

What i'd say, wonder who will play for Jones in the ODIs, as Jones is out and Gough ain't going. Plunkett maybe, as Pakistan would've never seen him much.
