Pakistan vs England Jul-Aug-Sep 2010

Nice ball to get Morgan, just did nipped back in enough.

Hopefully Swanny and Prior have a bit of a hit here to try to get us up to 400, which should be enough with the Pakistan batting line-up.

Had Pakistan taken their chance they probably have had England 320 all out which is about par I'd say.
 
Got to say, the Pakistani bowling is insanely good. Aamer, Asif, Gul and Kaneria/Ajmal probably form the best bowling line up in the world at the moment, overall on any surface around the world.
 
Well bowled by Pakistan, but 354 on this pitch is pretty good imo. The overhead conditions will suit Jimmy well, if he gets it right, we've got a brilliant chance. Finn and Broad could extract the uneven bounce too.

Disappointing collapse, but 354 is a good total here.
 
This has been an insanely good comeback. 17/6 this morning ! Now, they've just got to hope their batsmen can scratch to about 300 in the first innings. It is possible , if they get a few fifties.
 
Great bowling by Asif today, got the swing going. Pakistan really must play out the day without losing not more than 4-5 wickets. Still plenty of overs left in the day and rain is expected too.
 
This has been a superb first over from Broad. No-one's got the ball to go through this quickly, he's getting real lift of the surface and getting the ball to carry through to Prior. The first bouncer to Butt was superb. Looks in real good knick.
 
Yeah, these dudes are not looking too good out there. I think Farhat has to be aggressive here, I know he gets slated for that but I think it's for Pakistan's good if they get some really quick runs and start putting pressure on England from the word go. If they keep nibbling at things then the bowlers keep thinking they're on top of the batsmen.
