^ bugger. paying + legal?

Nothing that I know of..... tour games are rarely covered on TV anyway.

England needs to get use to the conditons in Pakistan, it will take time.

That was always going to be tough .
I mean ,they are not world renowned players of spin bowling,are they?

Trescothick has hit a 124 so at least Trescothick has hit some form from this game. Over to the bowlers.

Dont read into this performance too much. The England boys will of taken the game seriously, but will lack a bit of practise, and will struggle in the conditions at first.

True England fans will know that England can bounce back strong from this poor batting performance.

I'm glad Matty Prior played well. I hope he is given a chance with the gloves in the warm-up matches..........then who knows.....maybe replace Geraint.

 

[Pak_cricketer]

These three pictures summerize the day for England..

Collingwood, Bell and Jones all played and flopped today.

 

[satishmania]

Trescothick has a good record in the sub-continent..

 

[aussie1st]

As he showed again yesterday. But they can't just rely on him to win this series.

 

[ZexyZahid]

England declared on 256-9. Patron's XI now on 41-2.

It seems so.
Geraint may be out if he does'nt perform.
Matt Prior looks pretty promising.

 

[m_vaughan]

Geraint will perform. People seem to forget his match saving innings for England.

 

[satishmania]

it was entirely due to Geraint Jones' 71 that England were able to tie the Natwest Series final against auatralia..this tie gave england confidence which they carried through the entire Ashes series..

Good comeback from England after they were 76/6 and they have got Patrons XI on 203/9 now...
