Does Imam have a problem with the short ball, anyone?

He won't be the only one in the team.

 

[kuskash]

Fantastic play by Pak. Learn India learn.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Another beautiful shot for

Haris is sublime.

 

[IcedCoffee]

Haris on song

 

[babajee]

Ahh I just love watching Haris bat

 

[dauntless]

wow haris love watching him bat

 

[Mueez]

Haris

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Anderson and Broad never bowl when defeat is inevitable.

Says everything about their attitude.

 

[Square Drive]

This has been perfect. Always backed the boys.

Pakistan Zindabad. Feeling so proud right now.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Haris is amazing to watch.

 

[Markhor]

Bro what are thought
Bess and butler will play 2 test good for us bess bowling is nothing specail and butler apart from that inning doesnot look like will play well again with his unique technique

Buttler's more dangerous when he has a foundation to build on. 300-5 on a flat pitch and he can do a lot of damage - but not when the other batsmen are failing around him.

Bess looks ordinary - remember that Somerset warm-up before the 2016 series ? He made his FC debut then and Younis Khan milked him like a cow. He ended up with figures of 0-128.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

3 more runs added.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Ahh The Fluke Continues

 

[ARK Rafay]

The ball is turning good, but Dom Bess is clearly trying too hard. Moeen Ali is the best off-spinner England has right now.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

This is too easy.

 

[Cozyrensetter]

How is Root fielding at Short leg....On his knees

 

[ExpressPacer]

The benefit of playing young players concerned about their spot in the team - LOTS of running! 2's, 3's..

 

[shah_1]

What is Root exactly doing?

Fair enough

What will be pitch like for next test?will eng have any change in playing 11?

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Good leave from Imam.

 

[AFM]

Why did Broad and Anderson only bowl 3 overs? They're your best bowlers. At least try to win.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Root's on his knees

 

[Syed1]

Another flukey day... Fourth on the trot

 

[kuskash]

Waiting for comments like:
Fluke.
Jimmy and Broad weren't at their best.
This is the weakest team of England.

)

Tests win can not be fluke, you have to win session by session, if anyone says its fluke, they dont know cricket

 

[Inswing]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH WTH was that ?

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Shameful. Anderson and Broad didn't even try to bowl more - even when Pakistan were 12 for 1. Should have bowled atleast 3-4 overs more.

 

[On_the_up]

A thoroughly professional performance by Team Pakistan.

Every man has done his duty, a complete team performance, which is more satisfying than one based on 2 or 3 of standout efforts.

That too at the home of cricket, with the whole world watching. Well done boys.

 

[babajee]

Whatta shot by Haris

Never seen him slog sweep like that

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Smacked a full toss for

Just 2 more needed

 

[emranabbas]

Running wins coming

 

[Cozyrensetter]

England will bring Woakes in next test to replace Mark Wood or Bess depending on the pitch....Reports

 

[Markhor]

Fair enough

What will be pitch like for next test?will eng have any change in playing 11?

Headingley is in my county and these days it's a fairly flat pitch with some big totals being racked up. In the old days it had a reputation for being a seamer's paradise.

West Indies chased down 320 last year.

 

[kuskash]

Running wins coming

You mean winning runs coming.
