hope we can go past 300

 

[usam wani]

if rahat and wahab don't perform today they shouldn't be selected for second test.

 

[Asim2Good]

Pak team keeping its tradition not to win match that easily.

they ll keep you on edge of seat, they ll suck your blood till they win or loose.

 

[Adijazz1706]

At least 20 more needed to make it tough for England, this is a 4th day pitch not a 5th day one. Need to bat for half an hour at least.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

They have to swing at every ball, better to get out attacking than defending.

 

[Markhor]

Great if we could bat for another hour at least.

Another 20 from Yasir, 20 from Amir and 5 from Rahat should be minimum target.

 

[Robert]

Very humid over London this morning. I can see PAK skittling England with orthodox swing. Might not even need Yasir.

If Cook or Root get a century England might have a chance but it's unlikely.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

This can be a historical day for us

 

[marlonbrowndo]

I think thats asking for too much. Another 30 will be good. Anything more is a bonus

 

[Red Devil]

I see some clouds hovering over the ground.

 

[imshally81]

300 mark is just psychological milestone..

[#GreenRoars]

Seems cloudy weather

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Cloudier today. Will be a full house again

 

[#GreenRoars]

And game about to kick off.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Root thinks the wicket is flat, get a patnership and game over.

 

[majiz]

cricketers always say that lol

 

[Dr_Bassim]

What else do you expect him to say?

Wicket is terrible, and Yasir will weave webs around us, and we have no hope ...

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Game on

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Hope these last two can score 20 more at least.

 

[castortroy]

England bat so deep that I think pak should have had a lead of 350 at least.

They will be out for probably 290 today which I don't think will be enough

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Broad to start

Your negativity is very annoying. But the positive about your posts is that all the wrist slitting you have done the past 3 days has been proven wrong.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Actually I would be excited if the wicket is swinging and hard.

We might get out quickly, but it gives us more hope.

If it is flat as hell, then we might score 50 more, but England have good chance to chase it.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

[MENTION=140009]The Last Of The Stars[/MENTION] you must be disappointed since Yasir didnt start with a six

 

[Dr_Bassim]

[MENTION=140009]The Last Of The Stars[/MENTION] you must be disappointed since Yasir didnt start with a six

Lol, he is a bit emotional.

Don't mistake his emotion for lack of passion though.

Still much better poster than people who gave up after 1st day.

 

[castortroy]

There you go

Did say pak will barely get an extra 10

 

[#GreenRoars]

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Damn.... The short ball was always his weakness. Time for Amir to play some shots

 

[JilaWatan]

Yasir has better defense than hafeez and shan

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Yasir gone.

 

[hur rizvi]

We might not add anything to overnight score

Both should slog anything will be a bonus

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Tbh he shouldve gotten set first

 

[#GreenRoars]

Damn, Rahat can't bat

 

[Sherlock]

Rahat is a walking timber in human skin.

Good luck with the 300 now.

 

[shah_1]

Well played Yasir

 

[castortroy]

This has been a very poor 2nd innings score by pak considering the 70 lead

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

poor shot..

 

[Red Devil]

300 almost impossible now

 

[DanishJamil]

Wow How many commentator's curse have we seen in this match? They were discussing Bairstow's keeping before he dropped sarfaraz, then were praising Sarfaraz, he got out. Now Yasir shah

 

[hur rizvi]

amir should play strong drives and hope that he gets some runs

 

[#GreenRoars]

They should just slog now, may be we can get 1,2 boundaries of edge.

 

[hur rizvi]

Hmmmmmm 350 for Broad. Congrats Boy

 

[#GreenRoars]

Rahat on strike

 

[castortroy]

Rahat is a walking wicket.

Short ball here

 

[hur rizvi]

yaaaaaaaay, we have added a run to overnight score

Rahat walking wicket Ali to face

 

[supersix]

Rahat 'Emotionless' Ali to bat...

 

[marlonbrowndo]

They should just slog now, may be we can get 1,2 boundaries of edge.

Unfortunately cook is keeping a third man

 

[hur rizvi]

Bowl at stumps and Rahat will oblige

 

[#GreenRoars]

Rahat survived, peeuuww.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

In hindsight, we were lucky Yasir gave us a 70 run lead.

If England had scored even a bit closer to 300, this game would be over considering we are 215-9.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Why the hell is Rahat defending? Really want to put all of them in jail.

 

[hur rizvi]

Unfortunately cook is keeping a third man

STill slogging is the best way to go. They will get out anytime and defense wont bring runs

 

[castortroy]

Such a useless tail

 

[#GreenRoars]

 

[hur rizvi]

283 to win

1 run only added to Overnight score

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

3 balls survived #AchievementUnlocked - Rahat has evolved into a Charezauir

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Damn. 2 wickets lost for 1 frickin run! Shouldve been more careful. Just because theyre tailenders doesnt mean they cant leave!!

 

[castortroy]

Doesn't anyone teach these guys how to bat.

Such a massive tail

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Gone.

That's it, 283 to win.

 

[Markhor]

Added just one run.

 

[pak4life]

283 to win anyones game!

 

[Timewaster]

Pathetic tail

 

[hur rizvi]

Thanks to Yasir we have got 280+ otherwise England would be chasing around 240

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

oh dear, match engs

 

[JilaWatan]

We really need to work on these tailenders

 

[castortroy]

Rahat, Wahab and Amir and just sitting ducks.

Amit before the ban was able to bat

 

[theariezman]

Just 1 run overnight...that's a misery.

[yasir]

Yasir is decent with bat, Amir will get better in 6 months, if Hasan Ali comes in to test side makes our tail pretty respectable. that can give you 50 runs with maybe 100 runs in partnership

[dhump]

nothing more was expected from last 2 lets ball them out 280 is good enough total on board.

[Slog]

Man I'm worried about the 280

This is a 4th day flat wicket

Certainly not unachievable especially if Root sticks.

In the first innings most Of the English batsmen got out to normal deliveries and to Yasir's the reputation.

Good chance that they may have a different and more successful approach this time

 

[Dr_Bassim]

England scored 272 in last innings when Cook scored 81 and Root a 50.

If they get out cheaply, Pakistan would destroy England for 100-150.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Our pacers tried too hard with the new ball last time. Its cloudy. Just bowl the right lines and lengths and wickets will come

 

[castortroy]

Every team has improved tail enders over the last 10 years expect for pak.

 

[Shafi]

What a useless tail!!! Our batsmen never play with responsibility. Hafeez as usual flop,
Really disappointed with Misbah with his immature shot and got a duck, Azhar Ali has to play more fluent than useless tuk tuk

 

[ViciousMachine]

Absolutely pathetic.... 1 run added for the final 3 wickets. Our tail is the worst

 

[#GreenRoars]

So, today could be the last day of the game.

 

[Sherlock]

Should've just declared, rather than coming out to bat and seeing THAT!

Horrible tail.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Not a good start but its ok guys.

283 is still a good target.

300 would have had a psychological effect but its not everything.

Pacers have to bowl well.
