England vs Pakistan - First Test

[ZexyZahid]

Well Malik and Younis Khan aren't playing, while Hoggard is.

I had Trescothick and Pietersen in my team and they've gone cheaply. I wanted to insert Collingwood but didn't know who to drop. And now he've scored 77 runs by now. Also having Cook is a good thing now.

Collingwood on 70+, thats what he can do if he has to bat early in the innings, and dropping him from team now its looking costly, and even cook is not in my team.

 

[Sureshot]

Cook and Colly are both in my team, Cook was a late change for Afridi.

 

[ZexyZahid]

We all know by now that things can change rapidly after a day. Especially if you have a guy like Afridi.

Good news for me is that I've got Razzaq, who has two wickets so far.

Big blow missing Cook. I just couldn't fit him in with the Pakistan batsmen.

Same here. Putting Shoaib Malik and dropping Hoggard has also been a bad decision for me.

 

[Sureshot]

2 left handers at the top, they'll do better than the Sri Lanka 2 did in the Tests vs Hoggy, I still think he'll probably grab one of them in most innings.

man!!!!!!!! I made a really big mistake by making malik my CAptain!

 

[ZexyZahid]

After two days it's still not looking good for me. A good thing is that Kaneria got three wickets. Other then that it's poor.

 

[Sureshot]

I went for Danish and Monty, and looking at the turn on the pitch, it could work out.

Inzy, Yousuf and Kaneria are my only Pakistan players.

 

[Abhas]

great!!!
ive got malik and younis, and havnt got collingwood or cook or bell...
things surely look 'exciting' for me...

 

[ZexyZahid]

I was doubting between Inzamam-ul-Haq or Mohammad Yousuf as captain. I choose the first one, since he had a great record in the previous series against England, but now it seems choosing Yousuf was the better option.

 

[Sureshot]

I also have inzy as captain, Yousuf is one of my bonus players.

Good game for me so far.

Cook, Colly, Inzy, Yousuf, Harmison are all in my team. Just need Hoggy and monty to get some wickets and Tres and Kp to score some runs tomorrow.

 

[aussie1st]

Someone would have put Yousuf as captain. It's in the bag for them.

 

[ZexyZahid]

I don't have any of the main scorers in Cook, Bell and Collingwood. Shahid Afridi is the one who can put me back into the game.
