Stupid Pakistan. 82p down the drain.
England Cricket 2016 - Sri Lanka & Pakistan
- Thread starter ChrisNelson
- Start date
Pakistan in a hurry so they can catch the Community Shield.
Why does Ballance always look angry?
How is that umpire's call on hitting btw? More than half the ball was hitting.
You better REALLY enjoy that signing
The consistency is still lacking but at least we've shown some fight this series. Need to get rid of Younis & Hafeez really needs a knock like Azhar to prove his worth. But some decent performances which should give us confidence going forward.
Fingers crossed for curse
Appalling that this Pakistan side could go #1 in the world with a series win
Jesus, wipe them out before the Villa match, please 
Imo all the teams are ordinary outside their home conditions, the #1 ranking doesn't mean as much in this era.
Into the tail now
Now watch England struggle to knock them over

Surely even England can't feck up from here. I just hope Sami gets his hundred.
Sami
The movement on that
Exceptional bowling by the entire attack since lunch.
Feck sake - game over. Back to the Pogba thread... England deservedly win though imo, very positive attitude shown throughout. Pakistan way too negative.
Well done buddy
Yep. The captaincy when the openers were out yesterday was far too negative & everyone made the point, especially against Vince.
Credit to England. Good fight back. Test cricket remains the best form, match result swings in a few overs.
148 - 7 at tea, no surprises here. This has been happening seemingly every summer in England in recent years; test matches seem to be heading to a dull conclusion only for the match situation to change suddenly towards a rather intriguing ending.
First over after lunch
If we win the series 3-1, we leap over Pakistan in the rankings, right?

Hafeez... wow, just fecking wow.
Let's look at his cricket attributes:
1) Bowling: Can't bowl deliveries that comply with the laws of the game
2) Fielding: Numerous dropped catches this serieis
3) Batting: Not one notable score in 3 tests
4) Cricket brain: For someone called the "Professor", he threw his wicket away with two mindless shots in both innings to end up with a grand fecking total of 2 runs in the whole game. I think he teaches at the LVG School of Pseudointellectualism

Why don't England just bowl full & straight. Usually works.
Come on England, wrap this up.
This going to be a draw isn't it
50 partnership from the tail enders just before Moeen's C&B.
Bravo, England. Very good turn around

Well done England, good fight back. We should've seen out the day, the typical collapse costs us again.
Sami a positive. Azhar showing fight was good. Hafeez & Younis can feck off. Younis looks like he has a spring up his ass whenever he bats.
Hope we can win at the Oval but doubt it.

Pakistan could have drawn that if they batted sensibly with that last wicket.
Told you guys.
No way, it was over as soon as Misbah was out
One can always expect Pakistan to collapse from unlikeliest of scenarios, especially given the tendency to do so they have developed in last few years. The kind of collapses they have had in recent years, this was not that surprising.
Can't believe Cook elected to bat.
England have won this at the toss. Pakistan's only chance would have been bat first and get 300.
Also can't believe a guy like Ifthikar gets a test cap. The guy can't bat and he can't bowl.

But he can drive a tractor.
Not seen a green pitch actually induce significant seam movement for quite a while.
feck off, you can't give that out
There's feck all chance that's out
Standing umpire had the best view, so if he says it's out then I suppose it's out.
Must have missed the memo when Alastair Cook has turned into an attacking opener.
Oh forgot to add, he can't field either.
