England v Pakistan | 3rd Test | Birmingham | Aug 3-7, 2016 | Day 1

[Mamoon]

Unlucky Ali bowling some peaches.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

excellent comeback from Rahat

 

[street cricketer]

For some un known reasons they aren't showing. You can watch on SS.

Sky sports?

I was hoping to watch the match

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Bowling first was the right decision, letting amir go on for too long wasn't

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

For the love off....How the heck Cook survive those three balls

 

[Nothing matters]

Amir has been the worst bowler on show today.

 

[Markhor]

Unlucky there, had Cook caught in two minds.

 

[Mamoon]

It is clear now that Amir was helped immensely by the conditions in England in 2010.

If he wasn't banned, he would have been exposed by now.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Need some luck

 

[hussain.r97]

Amir was way off radar and clearly looked frustrated.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Lets pray it rain...the rest of the match...there is no going back from here

 

[JibranAnsari]

Unless Yasir shah gets 4 5 wickets , we will be bowling all day tomorrow as well.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Typical Rahat a few garbage balls and then a few good ones, seriously is not good enough for test cricket!

 

[Red Devil]

Outttttttt

 

[yasir]

Man that's unlucky, bowling down Jaffas and not getting wickets. [emoji35][emoji35][emoji35]

What a delivery Sohail

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Things are starting to happen now !!! Let's bag a few boys

 

[Nothing matters]

Sohail is bowling well.

 

[Mamoon]

Very good spell this by Sohail.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Wooh, awesome delivery. But still people blaming bowling decision Just imagine, Anderson bowl 6 deliverers on same channel, he would have been destructive.

And

 

[Amjid Javed]

It is clear now that Amir was helped immensely by the conditions in England in 2010.

If he wasn't banned, he would have been exposed by now.

If he would have played for another 5 years he would have developed into an even better bowler, you really do talk some utter nonsense on here.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Excellent last 8 deliveries

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Sher !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Khan !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Misbah from his body language has already lost the matcb

 

[JibranAnsari]

Now root

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Amir is so overrated it's unbelievable

 

[Shafi]

Long tiring day is ahead. This test looks like mirror of last test or may be even worse!!!

 

[hussain.r97]

Sohail bowling beautifuly!!

 

[Red Devil]

Sohail just slashed his average in half with that wicket.

 

[hur rizvi]

Ghar ka HAles

 

[Pete Rose]

Got im. Excellent last 8 deliveries.

 

[Mamoon]

Best Test batsman in the world arrives.

 

[Indiafan]

Rahat as usual is the best bowler on display, shame he didn't get the first few overs

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Beautifull from sohail khan

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Hales?

 

[Rana]

Mark Taylor, Bat first no matter what....THUG LIFE

 

[JibranAnsari]

Amir out of attack and we are looking good. Keep him away

 

[Abdul]

Excellent bowling from Sohail Khan.

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Plz get root early

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

ok ...... the real show begins now ........

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Need him before he gets set..

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Basic straight on line bowling from sohail gets him the wicket. Thats all our bowlers have to do. Patience and wickets will come

 

[_Salman_]

Now the real test has come.

 

[Fahdi]

:

Hales gone. Now Pakistan face the real challenge. The game hinges on Root's wicket

 

[JibranAnsari]

What a good batsman is root. Looking comfy from ball 1.

 

[Indiafan]

Shows what the pitch can do if you bowl in right areas. People complaining about bowling first should imagine Anderson and Co bowling on this wicket

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Need 3 wickets before lunch....g
Hales wicket means nothing....he was not in form

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Solid punch for four

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Shot from Cook

 

[street cricketer]

And people were ridiculing me for asking to select Sher Khan

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Need to get rid of cook and root in next 10 overs

 

[JibranAnsari]

Cook plays so late. Inswing from tang angle isn't good idea

 

[#GreenRoars]

That's why from day one i am in favor of Imran Khan, due to his good bowling line.

 

[WhenSultansBowled]

Hale is such a hack

 

[aroor]

one of Hales, Vince, Ballance etc failed

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Rahat needs to bowl exactly like he did during the end of his last over

 

[JibranAnsari]

Hope we get one of them before Tea

 

[Markhor]

Just helps having that right-armer for variety in the seam attack.

 

[Pete Rose]

Get either of these batsmen now and we will win the match

 

[Amjid Javed]

Well deserved wicket that for Sohail, we need two more wickets before lunch here.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Shows what the pitch can do if you bowl in right areas. People complaining about bowling first should imagine Anderson and Co bowling on this wicket

Perfecto, but doesnt have much patience.

 

[Junaids]

This pitch has no live grass on it at all. How on earth did Misbah decide to bowl first?

It's a 340-4 day 1 pitch.

 

[Shafi]

It is clear now that Amir was helped immensely by the conditions in England in 2010.

If he wasn't banned, he would have been exposed by now.

Than why he is flop now in this bowling friendly condition?

 

[JibranAnsari]

Bowl full outside off.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Bit too short to start

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Wth...why iver pitch

 

[street cricketer]

This is pretty much a 2 man team.

Get Cook and Root and you're on top. Bairstow is probably the only batsman who will offer some resistance.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Boundary ball every over.

 

[Rana]

Cook is a far more aggressive Batsman in Test Cricket than he is in limited overs

 

[Amjid Javed]

Key to getting root out early is dont give him easy runs and starve him and he will throw it away.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

rahat and his bad deliveries...

 

[Indiafan]

Perfecto, but doesnt have much patience.

True. 40 odd runs is nothing. Pitch will play much better when Pak bats second

 

[Amjid Javed]

Boundary ball every over.

Story of whole series with out bowling so far

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Rahat is getting good movement when he bowls full

 

[Fahdi]

Rahat with his regulation boundary ball per over.....

Come on Rahat get him out.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Why does Rahat bowl this one 'free hit me' delivery per over

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

England scoring way to freely

 

[JibranAnsari]

Bowl full even if you get hit.

 

[Rana]

Cook probably in the form of his life, hes a super sayin level 4 compared to what he was in 2010

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Right there
