Amir has the ability to keep the ball on one spot. Something Rahat lacks

Really hope it starts reversing soon
Nah - first 2 days was all Pakistan, then day 3 was dominated by England; today has started well for Pakistan but half an hour a day does not make.
Interesting to see them picking a world test XI on sky prematch show at the moment. Theyve done the bottom 6 so far and picked :
De Villiers (keeper)
Stokes
Ashwin
Shah
Starc
Anderson
Of course, Pakistan dominated the first two days. England only got a sniff into the match with Azhar's wicket at the fag end of the 2nd day.
i think eng will make 450
Why so early1 more over of seam then bring in yasir
1 more over of seam then bring in yasir
Reverse swing doesn't just magically happen - there is a proper process to it by roughing up one side of the ball and keeping one side shiny.
Heck you could say it was all Pakistan until before tea yesterday since the smart money would have been to get England's first 2-3 wickets before they caught the lead.

Would have Amla over Kohli in Tests any day of the week.
Also Smith over Root at 3 (swap batting numbers), not sure what Stokes is doing in a world XI.
Unfortunately.. He won't that effectiveWonder when Yasir is gonna come on to bowl?
If England can take a lead close to 200 the game is over.So restrict them within 150.
Pakistan lost 8 wickets for 143 runs from Azhar's wicket. I wouldn't say Pak dominated after that. They definitely did well to get a 100 run lead, but they could've got much more from the position they were in before Azhar lost his wicket on the last ball.
You think I dont know that??? They are obviously working on the ball. We always do. Lets hope it comes into play soon
Think that 258 gets him in
Vs WI ?
Don't think he's performed consistently well enough to be there.
Not a lineup that will give sleepless nights to any decent team of the past. Not even 70s or 80's. Even 90's or 2000's.
What a poor era of cricketers in general.
vs SA.
Who will you pick instead?
missing that inswing from Amir would have been deadly here.

Its not a Childs play and a pretty flat pitch
Would only have one of Ashwin or Yasir - also no idea why Anderson and Morkel are there, should be Steyn and Hazelwood.
