Pakistan vs England Jul-Aug-Sep 2010

[King Pietersen]

Mohammad Aamer looks one of the most technically adept batsmen in the side. Certainly has better off-stump awareness than Azhar Ali. It can't come as much of a surprise that Pakistan aren't putting significant runs on the board though, they haven't got a batsman in the side that averages over 40. Could really do with Yousuf and Younis back in this side.

5fer for Jimmeh. Not a bad Birthday present.

A 5 wicket haul for Jimmy very well bowled

I hope Strauss enforces the follow on, we could wrap this up in less than 3 days. Doubt he will though, Strauss + Flower are so conservative its negative at times.

what a sloppy ████ performance from Pakistan. Get in some Zimbabwe or Bangladesh batsmen in, they'd perform better. These men can bowl a bit, but they should be taught how to bat. Get in Injamam as the batting coach.

Well I expected that only from them.

I was a bit generous in saying the Paks wouldn't make 250 wasn't I Mark? Maybe 150?

Played England, Played Jimmy. I was wondering what was going to happen after Englands epic fold this morning...14 wickets already today for just a 140 runs!

At least these two are making the follow on question obsolete. Would be good for England to bat again and pile on the runs. Anderson and co look tired now. Magnificent effort from Anderson here!

Lol! Follow on question might still be valid!! See you Danish....

get one wicket more, what are you waiting for., 6 more runs:o

How embarrassing it is not only for bowlers but for who nation behind.
What a shame tailenders score more runs then top order, better to play 11 bowlers even they will score more then this.

Pakistan have bowled well but they look like a two man team at the moment and when those two dont fire, what then???

If you can't get the runs on the board you are not going to win matches...simple.

perfect!
Shameful batting by all top order batsman, although English bowlers were on song but Pakistani batsmen made them invincible.
I guess their is no solution for this this Pakistan team.
Like all other times (be positive) IF we some how able to overcome follow on and then A&A can get England under 100 then we MIGHT come back into the game but at the moment its a JOKE.

Why not play a team of 11 Bowlers instead of 4 next time :.We might win that way.

 

[Dutch]

It's such a shame teams like Pakistan cant be more consistent...test cicket needs consistent teams battling away. There is still a way to go with this match but you cant see Pakistan getting anywhere near a win here....

 

[Sureshot]

Look, ICC listen to me.

If you're going to allow countries to use lights in test match cricket, don't go off. It defeats the point somewhat. Either stay on with the lights, or save some money/energy.

Do they actually think things through?

 

[Insomniac]

Why are we so crap?

And I think we're done for the day, it's really dark.
