[Batman]

Pakistan | 9/276 | 112 Overs | Lead by 97 runs

4 Overs to go then.

 

[iZeeshan]

Oh god it's just a single, Asif on strike :S

 

[Khabri420]

Gul needs to go after Swann.

 

[luvthegame]

defend asif...let gul get some runs...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Asif is clueless when it comes to batting!!

Yep!

 

[Gollum]

Bat out the day at least! Force England to field tomorrow as well!

 

[Amjid Javed]

4 overs to go....

 

[luvthegame]

yes thats the way....

 

[Wiji]

If we hold on to our catches, we have a chance to win. It'll take a miracle, but I have faith in our bowlers. If only our fielders were half decent!

 

[iZeeshan]

What's the pitch/weather looking like for tomorrow boys?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Swann has 5 balls at Asif now

Shouldn't have taken 1 as of yet if you ask me!

 

[iZeeshan]

The iDone will not let England win

He will take 6 wickets tomorrow

 

[UP]

Gul should retain more strike.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Asif blocks 1

4 to go

 

[Dondulkar]

Finally a Pakistani batsman showed some real character !

Well played Zoni !

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Tossed up but blocks again

 

[Amjid Javed]

A few lusty sixes would be good now!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Wild swing and a miss

[A.M.]

[Deewana Mastana]

Beauty by Swann

Big turn and bounce

 

[nads_rocks]

If we hold on to our catches, we have a chance to win. It'll take a miracle, but I have faith in our bowlers. If only our fielders were half decent!

Some1 should tell Saj to tell the team to put lots of super glue on their hands! Its the only way the ball will be caught

 

[A.M.]

spin there

 

[iZeeshan]

I can't believe Asif has to face 5 balls of spin

That's not going to work, at all

 

[luvthegame]

block it...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

1 taken which is a bit silly really

Asif to have the strike

 

[Warfare]

Damn...Asif has the strike for the next over...

 

[A.M.]

Asif survives

 

[Batman]

Pakistan | 9/278 | 113 Overs | Lead by 99 runs

Everyone seems to have improved their batting apart from the batsmen.

Asif look fairly solid here.
