Pakistan vs England (in UAE) 2012

Yeah...Strauss was clearly out. And I think this one will go down to the wire, Pakistan bowlers bowling well....and the ball gripping on the odd occasion. I think England will crawl over the line..
 
If Pakistan had scored another 40 or 50 more then it would have been very hard but England can score these runs.
 
A few aggressive shots and the wicket will play differently. They're playing a mugs game, just as the Pakistani batsmen did in their innings.

I really dont know what Bowden was thinking as it was out to everyone else - the luck you need!!:D
 
Haha absolute classic England this.

Think we'll scrape over the line.
 
Misbah is a bit of a negative captain andhe will spread the field as soon as England score a few runs.
 
Damn woke up late. WTF is going on with England here?! Whats Rehmans bowling been like? Must be off the charts!
 
To be fair England have churned out some cracking test matches through brilliance/tendency to not know how to win in the last few years.

England have been woeful, as much as spinners have been very good. England are playing nothing cricket. Strauss was given unbelievable life by the third umpire.
 
Pakistan 13 unsuccesful reviews -says it all. Awful.

Pakistan Keeper needs to quiten down.

What exactly do you mean? England have been no better with their reviews.

I don't get most of your posts here. Have you ever played cricket at a good level?
 
Our only chance here is Swann and Broad chancing it.

Just a slow death with the 'proper' batsmen.

It's not turning a great deal, so i see no reason not to be using the sweep and their feet.
 
Reviews tend to be unsuccessful because DRS supports the umpire's call. So, unless it's a complete howler it won't get overturned.

Yes I have.

It says Pakistan with their excitable Keeper have been going for crazy appeals. I keep btw and a Keeper should pretty well know when its hitting and when its not. Appealing for everything does not help the captain.

Allow more than 2 reviews, and a system where they lose or gain 10 runs for getting it wrong.

I thought you played football for a 3rd division team?

And Trott's got runs, but sadly the wrong type.
