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

Wahab fans will use this spell to justify his selection for another 5 years, even though he will continue to be rubbish 90% of the time.

Even his good spells are mostly good for the eyes only, because it hardly yields more than 2-3 wickets.
 
First target for England should be to reach 182 and get runs to win to less than 100. Pakistan will be forced to go desperate..
 
Woakes isn't giving his wicket away. Not looking good but still there if only the other English batters did the same.
 
109 more runs. Come on Pak, can we do this easily please.

Some obstinate cricket by England. If the top order had shown similar application, England might have actually won.
 
I feel Wahab going wicketless would give England lot of hope

Only 104 to win now.

Game is back even
 
He always gets reverse in UAE tests, hardly ever uses this angle

Then probably he doesn't practice much. Even today, the two warnings forced him to go this way.. otherwise pretty sure he would still be bowling that same angle..
 
Great patient knock from Woakes and Bairstow. Pakistani bowlers look tired and will bowl loose balls surely for boundaries.
 
Yasir bowled well in the first innings but most of the wickets were gifts. England were reckless against him.

As a result, people have lofty expectations now. 1-2 wickets is the norm for a spinner in a place like England, can't expect him to run through a top-order every time.

Will always be a handful for the tail though.
 
Bairstow has improved leaps and bounds. This guy can actually play as a batsman alone now. Amazing improvement
 
If an edge does come, i can see someone dropping it the way Wahab's luck is going.

Target for Ron Weasley: get an 80-90 and you will take England home.
 
Agreed with Michael Holding. With this stonewalling you may as well bring that fielder on the boundary in.
