Comfortable four wicket victory for England in 2nd ODI against Pakistan

England v Pakistan | 2nd ODI | Lord's | August 27th, 2016 | England Innings

Pakistan 251 (49.5 ov)

Can Pakistan defend this total?
 
Take a bow Sarfraz and Imad. I still think it's not enough and I still believe that Yasir will be bad like he often is in ODIs. I hope he does really well though
 
I am quite annoyed Sami's batting today. One of ten balls, is not getting your eye in, its not nerves, its not superior bowling. Its just being cowardly. I hope he gets a rocket even for his lack of intent on this ten deliveries.

on a side not, the legside wide is wicket taking option against all pakistani batsmen, as we was in the test matches.
 
Right Azhar, what have you got?

Nothing to lose. Perfectly set up.

Do some things different and who knows?

he shows, like other young Pakistani captains before him, that he cannot divorce his performance from his captaincy. I would be happy/surprised if he is not so timid today.

You're right.

Timidity is Pakistan's permanent trait nowadays. However, one wicket and they may discover something different.
 
Pakistan normal effort was 260, now timid effort is 250, how we are going to get the par total of 330?

Considering English are giving us favor by playing two spinners, those 100 runs against them could easily be 80, with 1/2 more wickets if they played Jordan instead of Rashid. I feel they want to make Pakiatan look more respectable, atleast 250ish not 230ish with 4 90 mph bowlers.

We are like BD of 2000s, we are going to loose 95% of all matches against top sides, specially western side, who now all contain 2/3 90 mph bowlers [emoji84][emoji84][emoji84]

Hopefully one of those days when Pakistan defend a low-ish total.
 
Never been impressed with Roy looks like a gully cricketer type laparoo batsman. Shown his place today
 
I rate Hasan a lot but huge pressure on him especially with 2 fielders outside
 
87 mph are people were saying he is slower then umer gull
 
Man Hassan Ali is not that tall, looks shorter than I though, more like 5'9". That's not good [emoji18][emoji18][emoji18]

What the use of height? Is Irfan 7'5'' any better?
 
Just two boundaries guys, give the kid a chance atleast :facepalm:
 
Need one more wicket ASAP, to put the cat amongst the pigeons
 
Good pace from both these guys. Give Hasan some time he's playing his second game under immense pressure
 
This match is dependent on Amir and Yasir only. No way Wahab and Hasan will contain them.
