Pakistan | 9/287 | 115 Overs | Lead by 108 runs

Good over this for Pakistan. 1 Over to survive now.
 
Everyone from the lower order making a contribution today

This is amazing 82 from the top 5

205 from the bottom 5

Wow.
 
Choka by Gulldozer. The first time this series that Pakistan have batted the whole day.
 
if we can get 130+ lead we have a chance with the spin and swing and overcost conditions
 
pakistan's day have got progressively better so far

lets hope the trend continues! :asif
 
Hope we get 20-30 runs tomorrow morning, and then wrap England up

This will be a cracking game
 
Pakistan 72 & 291/9 (116.0 ov)

England 251

Pakistan lead by 112 runs with 1 wicket remaining
 
It's good England didn't have a chance to bat today. Much better conditions today (Although it was spinning a lot).

112 still a bit low unfortunately. Incredible batting performance by the lower order in general. Heck even asif has looked good.
 
Good to see smiles back .... Insha Allah we will add 20 more and then if we hold on to our catches we can hope for a win ....
 
What an enthralling last two sessions! Very long, but very intriguing. Should be interesting tomorrow as well. Just catch the ball please!!
 
Inshallah We will go down fighting...Even if we lose there is no shame.

Get rid of the parchi players...Malik, Umar Amin, Akmal Jr. MOYO, YK, Yasir Hameed must play the rest of the series.
 
:pissed: why do these sky interviwers always use words in context pakistanis are never going to understand?
 
Spectacular fightback from the lower order, Made the match worth watching.

Fixed :ajmal

Did we just bat the whole day? Quite an achievement. With that we also reached our highest score this English summer.

Zoni was brilliant, though quite a tame dismissal.

Saeed Ajmal is a legend, his war cry after reaching 50 was just hillarious and inspiring!
 
My oh my.

If we had just taken those damn catches, we would have won this match.

England would never have chased 200+.......never, not in a billion years. The likes of Butt, Farhat, Akmal, Malik and the fielders cost us this game.
 
fantastic batting by haider and ajmal..

but didnt like the way haider just threw away his wicket :P... this is not the way to get out in a test cricket ...after worked so hard for ur 88..runs.. he might easily stretched the lead to 150 ..


STILL I WISH BY ANY MEANS WE SHOULD REACH 150 AND GAME ON
 
Excellent fightback by the Pakistan lower order. I hope they will make England fight to win tomorrow.
 
What a finish from pakistan on day 3 ! I believe most of us did'nt think pakistan could realistically last morning session let alone lasting the whole day !




Amazing rearguard action by zulqarnain, aamer and ajmal with the bat. We were all thinking of innings defeat but with this excellent gritty batting we now have lead of 112 runs !!!





Now if asif and gul can somehow miraculously get us 50 odd runs more then i say we have good chance of bowling out england and winning the test ! 50 runs more is really asking too much from asif and gul as they are our number 10 and 11 even though gul got a brilliant 65 nt out in previous test but now that he's playing injured it really be a miracle if we get 50 more runs.







I reckon whatever lead we end with we must open with ajmal and asif in getting quick wickets, who knows we might create memorable history !
