No comment. Absolutely terrible. Batted poorly and bowled poorly. Afridi's 10fer was the only good thing to come out of the match. Everything else was terrible. A bad day for Pakistan cricket.

Aktar top score, yep really terrible. :D

Aktar top score, yep really terrible. :D

I know, I couldn't believe it. Look at second top score - Ahmed. He's a bowler as well. There's one more Test to be played after a One Day friendly against Scotland and with the score at 1-1 I need to win.

Cheers for the comment. :)

Not a lot to say really. Fine win against a team we expected to beat. Razzaq was good with the ball and Afridi and Misbah were good with the bat. Surprised Afridi got MotM, Misbah deserved in my opinion.

Reaction
Only a little one day friendly against Scotland CC so not much to comment on really. Ahmed and Afridi bowled but so did Kaneria who got 2-22. Then it was our turn to bat and we got the score comfortably but there were a few poor performances from Younis Khan(5) and pretty much everyone else. Yousuf batted the best and Nisar supported him quite well. Alam chipped in with 6* so well done to him... Decent win I guess.

Reaction
Unbelievable win. At one stage in our 1st innings we were 101-5, but Razzaq, Inzi and Akmal did a superb job to get us past 400. Inzi was sublime. He and Razzaq put on 183 for the 6th wicket and then he and Akmal put on 98 for the 7th. Didn't bowl that great but the two spinners were good in either innings. Butt finally hit a good knock and Inzi rounded off a fine game with the top score. We take the series 3-1 :D

Pakistan win by an innings and 17 runs
MotM: Afridi
Interruptions: None

Reaction
Absolutely fantastic. Afridi's hat-trick started us well in the first innings and our bowlers dominate the batting order. Strauss, Pietersen and Trescothick the only batsmen to score decently. Then came our batting which was very good indeed. 3 partnerships of 72 or more sums up how well we did. We were 7/1 at the start though as Moin Khan got caught for 2. Inzi and Khan then put on 72 before Inzi went for 35. Yousuf came and went, as did Nisar who had a partnership of 72 with Khan although Nisar only got 29 runs in the partnership. Then came the partnership of Alam and Khan which didn't last long as Khan got bowled for 126 off 232 by Giles. Alam and Afridi then put on the biggest partnership of 95 before Afridi went for 50 runs exactly. Then there was a few little partnerships as Alam fell for 103 as the ninth wicket. Brilliant by him. Then came the brilliant bowling again as Afridi destroys as per usual. 6-40 his figures even though there was a run out of his bowling as well. Trescothick and Flintoff made 48, which was their highest score in the first innings... Afridi got man of the match, something he thoroughly deserved for his match figures of 12-86 and a nice 50 off 63 balls. Superb performance.
