England vs Pakistan | 1st Test | Lord's, London | May 24-28, 2018 | Day 3 | Match Thread

[babajee]

Not out

 

[Hasan123]

That would have been some nice luck lol.

 

[Markhor]

Yawn - pitch is doing nothing...

It's all happening now

 

[Big Mac]

Bounced

 

[Watsupdoc]

Fakhar needs to wear a helmet!!!

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

fs commies are right, somone get Fahkar a helmet. You may be Marine, but you cant take a ball to the face

 

[IMMY69]

Ball is reversing so get Hasan Ali on.

Shadab can’t contain the runs

 

[James]

Already feels quite close to the last roll of the dice.

These two, then Buttler, then a few shabby tailenders.

 

[Hasan123]

Looks like Stokes only wants to play 1 way.

 

[Asch Ali]

Stokes will get out to Amir.
He’s such a show off player.

 

[Hasan123]

Wouldn't mind seeing Hassan Ali or Abbas get a go in place of Shadab.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Pakistan should wrap it up today

 

[Nasty Naz]

Just gotta get Root out at this point and I think its game over.

 

[dauntless]

Amir bowling fast now. 90 miles!!

 

[Hasan123]

Wasim worked with Abbas but didn't even give him 1 chance.

 

[idrizzy]

with Babar injured it's only fair that one Akmal replaces another.

#UmarIN

 

[Hasan123]

Abbas doing some stretching. Seems as though he will be bowling soon.

 

[shaaik]

Wasim worked with Abbas but didn't even give him 1 chance.

Good for him.. don’t want to see him in meaning less t20s..

 

[Robert]

Another innings, another top-order batting failure....

 

[Hasan123]

Shadab continues.

 

[MMHS]

Stokes will try to score some quick runs and get out of this suffocation - normally, best medicine for that is tight nagging few overs. I would have brought Abbas for Shadab.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Looks like Stokes only wants to play 1 way.

Might as well if that's his game, only problem is, the Pakistan bowlers are producing some good stuff so you can see him coming a cropper if he gets a decent one.

 

[Hasan123]

Good for him.. don’t want to see him in meaning less t20s..

But he didn't deserve to be on the bench for the whole tournament.

 

[Nasty Naz]

89.3, 88, 89.6, 87.4, 88.6, 89.9 were Amir's speed in that last over.

I guess he's really amped up after a couple of wickets.

 

[imshally81]

What a catch

 

[babajee]

Haha Shady

 

[Asch Ali]

Wasim worked with Abbas but didn't even give him 1 chance.

Wasim takes credit for everything. Abbas doing well isn’t because of Wasim if that was the case, all our fast bowler in the squad would be legends (including Rahat). Abbas is a natural talent.

 

[Hasan123]

Shadab strikes. Easy work LOL.

 

[QuickCrick]

Another one

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

WOOOOOW Shadab!!! Haha Ben stokes capitulates!

 

[Big Mac]

ahahahahahahahahaha let's go

 

[babajee]

Innings victory coming inshallah.

 

[Markhor]

Stokes will attack and that's the best way given the deficit. But he might overattack.

And there you go

 

[Syed1]

This is not IPL child )

 

[Asch Ali]

Stokes will get out to Shaddy.
He’s such a show off player.

Lol!! Haha!!

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Yesss

 

[idrizzy]

Easy peasy, Shaddy must be Stoked about that wicket.

 

[IMMY69]

Great stuff

 

[Theo_14]

Unbelievable performance from Pakistan.

 

[another drop catch]

Not sure why Shadab is still in. Bring in Abbas and keep attacking with the pacers.

hope you got it why

 

[babajee]

Let’s see what IPL legend can do.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Shady boy!!!

 

[Hasan123]

Stokes didn't seem to have any interest in hanging around. Bob Willis will be having a go on the debate [MENTION=53290]Markhor[/MENTION] )

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Lol posters here again showing lack of match awareness. Shadab was kept as he always has an outside chance against attacking Stokes.

Well caught!

 

[Nasty Naz]

Wow i guess keeping Shadab in worked. Horrific shot from Stokes though.

 

[Sirris]

Innings win coming up!

I was the first true believer - remember the name.

 

[blackanhyellow]

Easy peasy, Shaddy must be Stoked about that wicket.

I see what you did there.

 

[Markhor]

Stokes didn't seem to have any interest in hanging around. Bob Willis will be having a go on the debate [MENTION=53290]Markhor[/MENTION] )

Oh god will need measure his anger on the Richter Scale.

Boycott's laughing on TMS

 

[Big Mac]

Another innings, another top-order batting failure....

England's stubborn refusal to play properly because they want to attack like they do in pyjama cricket is ridiculous.

Time to stick TMS on to listen to Boycs whinge about it. Be nice for Buttler if he can grab a few runs here though

 

[emranabbas]

pakistan bowling so well on a batting paradise

 

[MMHS]

Stokes will try to score some quick runs and get out of this suffocation - normally, best medicine for that is tight nagging few overs. I would have brought Abbas for Shadab.

Thora jaldi mu ...

But, soft dismissal, expected better from Stokes.

 

[Hasan123]

Shadab has done well. Playing tests will improve him .

 

[blackanhyellow]

hope you got it why

That was a terrible ball. Just a worse shot.

 

[Hasan123]

Oh god will need measure his anger on the Richter Scale.

Boycott's laughing on TMS

Can't wait ) ) )

 

[babajee]

Amir can take care of Buttler

 

[Syed1]

Innings win coming up!

I was the first true believer - remember the name.

If Root gets out in the next 10-15 runs I will believe with you

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

What an awful shot. Didn't think Stokes would last long, but I thought it would take a better ball than that.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Shadab

 

[Theo_14]

What Pakistan need to do is to stay on the gas - can’t afford a late partnership between these two or tailenders. Has happened before.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

We will we will rock you.

 

[babajee]

What Pakistan need to do is to stay on the gas - can’t afford a late partnership between these two or tailenders. Has happened before.

Hasan and Abbas are good at knocking over tailenders.

 

[Asch Ali]

3 slips

 

[Hasan123]

What a ball that was.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Imshally and dosray bhai jinki stream agay hai thora thehr k post karain

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Has happened more often than not.

 

[ArsenalFC]

Excellent by Pakistan. Let's finish this today

 

[Big Mac]

omg poor Ramps

 

[Syed1]

Brilliant bowling by Amir... Two wide off and one sharp one at the stumps well played by Buttler

 

[imshally81]

Imshally and dosray bhai jinki stream agay hai thora thehr k post karain

Bhai sab sey phaley out bataney ka maza hi kuch aur hey...

 

[Rinnegan Sasuke]

Let poor Abbas get some English wickets too.

 

[Surf]

Hope Abbas is okay hasn't bowled much

 

[pkckt]

Amir cranking it up

 

[Big Mac]

If was playing this'd be over by now

Damn right but if Rahat was playing it wouldn't be a fluke so this is fun too.

 

[Duckworth Lewis]

Stokes batted like an idiot. Not at all playing to the situation and format.

 

[IMMY69]

Amir had got quicker and quicker throughout this long long spell.

He is just brilliant and it’s just a pity that he’s not properly appreciated by everyone.

 

[Hasan123]

Don't know how much longer Buttler can play this defensive.

 

[ArsenalFC]

Amir is pumped - bowling around 90mph consistently.

 

[Syed1]

But but but Amir is finished and needs to be dropped

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Hasan back on

 

[Markhor]

Terrific over there.
