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

One of our great Test wins.

We will lose the series 3-1 or 2-1 now; better than 3-0 or 2-0.
 
Even Finn can bat well

Indeed. Our bowlers don't have to be Brian Lara, but at least have the right technique - there'll be close Tests where you'll be relying on your tail-enders and every run counts.

But I know Pakistani mentality - "its not my job so why are you asking me to work on my batting ?" - need to change this mindset.

At least Yasir and Amir can produce 15s and 20s, though Amir's batting has regressed.
 
Yes, he has.

A few months ago I made fun of [MENTION=7774]Robert[/MENTION] for his suggestion that Woakes would be the new Anderson.

One of us looks foolish, as I predicted. Except I'm the foolish one.

Both teams has lots of positive to take. I think, PAK can't change their bowling options now, but should play Iftekhar for Shaan - that would suit the attack for Old Traford. But for ENG, Moeen, Finn has to go. Also, I don't think Stokes add much for Old Traford - Jimmy, Berbi, Wokes, Adil & a left Arm spinner.

Sometimes i just think you are a super patriotic super-superstitious fan :D Instead of the cynical person you sometimes come across as :inti
 
Yes i mean to say around, but Amir doesn't seem confident, or maybe it's misbah's reluctance

I think Amir is not confident and I cant understand the reason. I remember him bowling a match winning spell around the wicket at Oval in 2010
 
Give Younis a cookie, Pakistan fans don;t realise how good a slip fielder they'll miss once he's gone. Legend :yk Give him a coaching role asap
 
Yasir seals the Man of the Match by taking out his biggest rival in this match ; CR Woakes!Unbelievable effort from him though.
 
Wont think it will happen on any other pitch in England. Leeds can be flat but the bounce is true. The Oval we know is probably the quickest pitch along with Old Trafford in England.
 
Woakes should have attacked right after Bairstow fell.

Mindless defense only means its just a matter of time before an edge carries.
 
Can't believe it - WE'RE GONNA WIN AT THE HOME OF CRICKET LADS !

This surpasses nearly every recent Test victory I can remember.
 
[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] I told you on a flat track we have a chance!!!!!!! Where did England positive approach get them? I said if Yasir could bowl economically they would throw there wickets away!!!!
