Flintoff GONE
Flintoff falls to Kaneria
Pakistan are still fighting, and their celebrations after Flintoff's dismissal clearly indicates that they still believe there is some hope for them in this match. Flintoff inside edged a sharp turning leg spinner from Kaneria, straight to Shahid Afridi at forward short leg.
With this wicket England are now clearly struggling in their second innings at 129-5. They however already have a handsome lead of 327.
England FOW 129-5
Andrew Flintoff c Shahid Afridi b Danish Kaneria 31(62)
England lead by 327 runs

Pietersen departs...
Pietersen also gone
Pakistan have staged a dramatic comeback in this match, after Shahid Afridi got rid off England's 1st innings hero, Kevin Pietersen. Pietersen rather unnecessarily went for a big sweep and wasnt able to connect as well as he would have liked, with the end result being that the ball went straight down Taufeeq Umar's throat at deep fine leg.
England FOW 129-6
Kevin Pietersen c Taufeeq Umar b Shahid Afridi 5(4)
England's chances of going past 350 look slim now.

Three wickets without any run scored
The Doosra does it
An unbelievable doosra from Danish Kaneria (CPU bowler) got the wicket of Ashley Giles, who had no time to react to the change in direction of the spin.
England have now lost their last three wickets without the addition of even a single run to their score.
England FOW 129-7
Ashley Giles b Danish Kaneria 0(3)

Good fight back by Pakistan, but I think it's too late. England should win comfortably.

England bowled out
Jones steers England to safety
Geraint Jones hit an unbeaten 69, and shared a 57 run last wicket partnership with James Anderson (9) to take England's lead past 400. It was a frustating partnership for Pakistan, and a win from here is next to impossible for the home side.
Danish Kaneria did pick up the last wicket, when he had James Anderson caught by Shoaib Akhtar, to finish with figures of 5-32. England bowled out for 227 in the 2nd innings, setting Pakistan 426 to win this test match.
Lunch has also been taken.
Geraint Jones' 69 not out was the top score of the innings. Ian Bell and Andrew Flintoff come next with 43 and 31 respectively.
Danish Kaneria bowled brilliantly in this innings, bagging five wickets, and causing the batsmen all sorts of problems.
Two major partnerships there. The first one was between Ian Bell and Andrew Flintoff, and then right in the end, the one between Geraint Jones and James Anderson.
