Pakistan vs England Jul-Aug-Sep 2010

[Biggy]

Into the tail now.

Again, Yousuf needs to be in this side. Anyone who disagrees just needs to look at the score. And call Younis back in. It's a huge sign of desperation but Pakistan have no other choice but to be desperate.

33-5 pakistan are in trouble now, I just hope the debutant doesn't fail because I always feel sorry for players who do bad on debut.

Tough batting summer in the UK seems, i guess it happens every few years. It can be the hardest place to bat, and the easiest when its a dry summer.

And 6 out, gosh.

Why did I say that.:doh

 

[King Pietersen]

:laugh 1st ball duck in Test cricket, harsh on the lad. 36/6. This is brilliant.

 

[Biggy]

He'd better be able to keep!

 

[Themer]

Wow this is getting bad now. Akmal was unlucky he was just outside the line but it was close hence why he was given and didn't appeal. Live it looked plumb.

And a brilliant delivery first up for the new wicketkeeper and there was the tiniest of edges. Not much on hotspot but the bat wasn't close to anything else.

In fact there is something on hotspot. Thats the smallest of dashes of white but its there and snicko agrees.

Bangladesh batted a lot better than this, and batting is harder in spring than summer. in all honesty, pakistan, without younis khan anyway, are just the worst test batting team in cricket right now. put their two opening bowlers in bangladesh's team and they would be better than them.

Before this match started I just new that pakistan would do really bad, its always seems inevitable now with pakistan.

 

[Dr. Pepper]

The commentators said something about Pakistan not being used to the swinging conditions in England but this is just too extreme. An international standard team can't be 36-6 even in conditions they're not used to. They're just plain awful. County cricket batsmen play in these conditions yet still manage to do better. And the batting has been pathetic. Only Akmal has actually tried to kick on and get some runs. There's no point staying in for 30 balls and not getting a run then getting edged because of some horrible footwork.

Into the tail now.

Tail-enders are out, now into the real batsmen.

 

[Gurjot95]

So this is third time in this series Pakistan are 6 down under 50 runs. Oh wait! they have only batted in 3 innings in this series also

 

[sami ullah khan]

Out best batsman is still in the dressing room and I am talking about Umar Gul.
On a serious note I am so depressed. How can you bat this poorly and defensively.

 

[Sureshot]

Some excellent bowling by England, horrible mentality by Pakistan.
