Every run counts! I have a feeling we are in store for a Pakistani collapse.

That is not necessary, Pakistan can bat well and still loose. Not being negative guys, just a possibility. Pitch looks amazingly good.
 
Oh man!!!!!!!! Udal again lucky!!! Trying to get some revenge for the thrashing Afridi gave him.
 
Difficult chance but Ranadinho had done most of the hard work
 
Rana the culprit. Came running in was a difficult chance.
 
That wasnt a chance for Sami!! He did well to save runs there never mind go for the catch!
 
forget pakistan keeping a lead here they are hoping to control rampany english now

"THE ATTACK OF THE TAILENDERS!"
 
I think the lead now is immaterial - its not likely to win us a match on this placid pitch - Pakistan have to play very sensibly now - England will feel that they have a pretty good chance of turning the tables.

And what a great and sad irony - Afridi has by far outperformed all players in this match and we cant even have him in our next team - PCB should have thrown up a big protest - the damage to the pitch was minimal - thats where Sharyar Khan requires a hard talk!

How about PP traditional Phenti!!
 
Assalaamualikum

As MIG said, the lead is immaterial now.

If Pakistan can bat out the day, I don't see how England can win this one.
 
yes but if we had the 50 lead it would have raised pakistan's morale this last stint is really drooping our shoulders

Sorry MIGGY but I dont agree with you. Its a matter of principle. Regardless of how much damage was caused and if it affected the result of the game or not, it was wrong and throwing a protest/appealing it would only set up the wrong example for others and our younger players.
 
test match squandered by missed chances. time for some batting practice, we'll see what our young batsmen are made of now by batting 3 sessions under what will be some sustained english pressure. g'night all, see you tomorrow morning.
 
No need to send Afridi now. Too big a risk and better just to play the game as it is. Lets try to scroe 230 today and take it from there. I think just bat long as we can with a positive intent and see where it takes us. Paksitan is not winning this, but if we collapse it gives England a opening.

Trying to be the leader but with his cheating record won't get the captaincy...
 
Ok guys letting that last wicket drag on wasnt ideal but it over now important to bat really well and get the momentum back last think we want it to have a hang over in our batting that could be fatal
 
We just need to bat out today

We will probably get in another 75 or so overs.
 
Afridi shouldnt open but should be prepared to move up the order. Say we can get a lead of 150 or so Afridi should then come in and try and blast a 100 run partnership with someone.
 
this is really heart breaking stuff.
I can think of a hundred reasons why we should have won this test match easily and agreed that its not over yet but it should really not have gotten to this stage.. catches win matches has taken a whole new meaning for me now!
