England v Pakistan | 1st Test | Lord's | Jul 14-18, 2016 | Day 4

At this risk of his religious fans attacking me, Misbah has pedestrian today. There hasn't been enough urgency in his captaincy.

Quite a few edges haven't carried but he doesn't feel the urge to move the catchers closer.
 
Wahab very unlucky, going through great spell [emoji25][emoji25][emoji25]

I don't think wahab has it anymore , he is clearly not getting wickets . No one cares about edges dropped catches . He isn't worth the hype anymore
 
Really unlucky wahab

Slips need to move closer

Slip should come Forward...

Why are the slips so deep when edges are not carrying?

Pitch is keeping low, it's easy to say the slips should come forward but they still need to give themselves enough time to react if there is an edge.

They also take their positioning from the keeper.

Oooof, I definitely heard a sound.
 
That's the spirit of a good team. They always try to give their 200% where our players have tendency to throw wickets under pressure
 
We're throwing absolutely everything at them. Can't believe how lucky they've been.
 
Wahab not getting wickets we need. Edges and drop catches and good balls don't count . He has lost the edge which made him good
 
England have only 4 top class players, but they are a very resilient unit.

They don't go down easily and keep fighting, which is the biggest reason for their success in the last couple of years.
 
Love this sort of tense situation. Men around the bat, batsmen under pressure. Great contest.
 
This partnership might not win the match for England but will set them up for the rest of the series. I still remember how a partnership between Cook and Prior turned the momentum of the series between India and England. India went from 1-0 to 1-2.
 
Wahab to continue. Just bowl a bit closer to the stumps.
