All the best Pakistan, hope they put up a good fight so that we can have a close match on our hands.

Drop Wahab Riaz, he is a poor man's Rubel.
 
We are likely to see swing today. If it doesn't swing, kookaburra should stop making cricket balls.
 
These are the definite team changes for the team today:

Out: Amir, Wahab and Yasir

In: Irfan, Gul and Imad.
 
Sharjeel
Azhar
Sami
Babar
Sarfraz
Rizwan
Nawaz
Imad
Amir
Hassan
Irfan
 
I don't know why everyone here wants Nawaz to play.I think he is very poor player and should never represent pakistan.
 
Amir is being rested, right decision.

Don't agree with Gul coming back and Rizwan should have replaced Malik.

This Pakistan side doesn't have the will to fight. The leadership should say wonders.
 
Best solution bat 1st score 250 and get the game done and over with.If England bat 1st another carnage on the card.
 
Sharjeel
azhar
babar
rizwan
malik
sarfaraz
imad
amir
hasan
wahab
irfan

looking forward to seeing this today
 
Pak won the toss, and saved them from yet another embarrassment.
 
Gul lol and Irfan bigger lol.

one mediocre goes two return lol.

and Rizwan. just not what you want in the middle order with Sarfraz,Baber and Azhar.
 
Atleast Azhar Ali can win the toss, that is about the only thing he can win.
 
Why is Amir not playing ?

because they want to give remaining two games to Gul so he doesn't cry back home.

This has been normal in Pakistan now. First pick mediocre players like Khurrum then give them a long run because now it would be unfair to drop them once you picked. Pakistani fans should be used to such tortures now.
 
1st Change from WY era - Aamir is not playing. So, Mickey effect has officially started - I would have been really disappointed had he burnt out his only bowler remotely close to saving face, in a dead rubber.

Mian also got injured for Rizwan, which is encouraging signs.
 
Inzamam missed the chance to test Usama mir and asghar. Would have been a sensible decision, you cant blame yasir shah poor guy was not even given a rest after test series. It was a long for him, plus inzi decision to play rest sohail and rahat has cost pakistan dearly in ODI series, they were inform bowler for us. I still feel Azhar need to be given more time as a Captain. Dropping him now would be a wrong decision, its not his fault if bowlers have no skills to take wickets. Most bowlers apart from Amir looked like containing bowlers rather than strike one.

Ppl bombarding Azhar CaptAincy but no one in bowling coach mentioned to our bowlers how to bowl in Eng, Azhar mehmood and mushy played their whole life here, how come they failed to guide our bowlers Eng.
 
Yeah Woakes out for 1st timein series and wood out as well..and pak batting 1st..

English pace:Willey coming back, Jordan poor when attacked and plunkett expensive bowler

Sharjeel shud seriously consider hitting atleas a century

Guys guys relax, we can still set records of smallest target or biggest opening partnership (by England) or fastest run chase (by England).. Never question our ability to break records

If he can survive Willey's swing it could be his day.
 
If Sami aslam fails in this match with this mediocre english attack.. Then he should be kicked outta odi..

Poor Sami should never have made it to the ODI squad. He is a test specialist and does not possess the power game required in modern ODIs.

Sami was only selected as a shield for Azhar and Hafeez to hide their poor performances.
 
Buttler injured in the warm-ups so Bairstow comes in.

Headingley is a good venue, usually get a bit of swing. Pitch was bit slow in last week's RL Cup semi-final.
 
We need to take this match with us, it is big time Azhar takes home a couple of wins. He needs to get to the aggressive side of it, not only with his captaincy but with his approach we cant afford him to take 30-40 balls to get going he is not of Misbah's caliber, Misbah used to make it up at the end and used to bat down the order.

When your batting one down , u need to be rotating the strike constantly and play your shot when a bad ball comes your way.

Test Specialist don't have place in our circuit let's be realistic...Asim Kamal,Faisal Iqbal,Yasir Hameed all down the drain. He needs to get his flow and game back in the limited overs.
 
As Slog pointed out in the last match. We play at a run rate of 6.5 when we are trying to crazy in the death overs, and England were playing at that rate without much fuss (before they went crazy)
 
I'm just watching the match because I'm bored, not a supporter of Azhar at all
 
Good camaraderie between Wasim and his former Lancashire coach Bumble.
 
Is there a Caribbean Quota in England side?

How can Jordan get into the side?
 
Hopefully Pak win here, else they be served with jooti kakabs from Bradfordstanis- which be a shame as Bradford does have a couple of decent Pakistani restaurants
 
Only here to see Sharjeel, Babar and Rizwan. Sarfaraz as well.

The rest I don't care about.
 
Sami conceded 2 dots, for most teams, those two would have fetched from 7 to 10 runs - this is the fundamental difference.
 
Just smash these average England bowlers.

No Woakes, No Wood.

Jordan, Willey are your average trundlers.
