What's new

England v Pakistan | 2nd ODI | Lord's | 10th July, 2021 | England innings (47 overs match)

Carse has been impressive in both the games I think. Bowled decently around 90 MPH in the first game and now doing pretty well with the bat.

Eng talent depth is possibly the best alongside India in my opinion
 
The big hits would have been a bonus. The way he grafted at run a ball without any risks put more pressure on PAK.
That is what I am saying too, you do not need big hits always. If Shadab can play Gregory type innings more regularly, which he has shown he is capable of, then he is a good fit in this Pak team, along with bowling contributions.
 
Initial rubbish spell aside, I think this is the fastest I have seen Rauf ball in terms of average speed (Consistently around 90 moh). Still doesnt change the fact that he needs to work on his good length accuracy.
 
Faheem possibly have had as poor a day in the field today as anyone in cricket
 
Credit to Saud Shakeel for breaking the partnership. Otherwise Pakistan would have been chasing 320+.
 
To me Rauf is the weakest link. Can’t compare him with faheem or any other all rounder. If you play as full time bowler then this kind of bowling won’t work.

Also, this young England aide is weak against spin. A case can be made for Nawaz
 
Saud being a decent 6th option, Hassan performing in ODI after a long time, Shadab bowling with good accuracy and Shaheen doing well with the new ball as usual were the positives from this innings.
