England vs Pakistan | 2nd Test | Headingley, Leeds | June 1-5, 2018 | Day 1 | Match Thread

100 up for england loss of 1 wicket

 

[adil_909]

Pakistan should never bat first in any format of the game. We got lucky in CT final as that was the best I have seen our team bat in years. But our default should be bowl first, doesn't matter pitch, format, anything. Let the bowlers do their thing and put batsmen under pressure. Very much doubt England would be 100/1 batting first

 

[darksher]

English crowd is so annoying.

 

[dravidthewall]

Cook is only 3781 runs away from Sachin

Cook will get there

 

[Greenstorm]

Ouuut

 

[darksher]

Ouuut

How come?

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

HUGE moment in the game

 

[Mamoon]

Now this is what you call a fluke wicket.

 

[Send1983]

Lol at the celebration after that lucky wicket.

 

[Duckworth Lewis]

Ouchh..brainfade from Cook. Lucky breakthrough.

 

[darksher]

Damn my stream is lagging behind.

Now this is what you call a fluke wicket.

Its called a lapse in concentration.

Wouldn't you have liked him to score a 100.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Now we are going to witness another english collapse.. 175 all out.

Bouncer against Cook is a good ploy as he is mostly on front foot.

 

[Syed1]

One more wicket before close of play s'il vous plait

 

[darksher]

Hassan Ali with his cringe-worthy celebration yet again.

 

[Rayyman]

Should look to get them 170-3.

Wouldn't mind a bouncer barrage. Right now bowling is a bit one-dimensional. Ball isn't swinging enough.

What did i say? Bouncer works.

Hasan strikes!


Take that tuk tuk Cook
Get outta here!

 

[pratiktc]

Bess plumb in front! Didn't review

Yaar had hai

Wasn't anywhere close to plumb?

 

[Mamoon]

From Cook’s perspective yes, but it was a fluke for Hasan. He got a set batsman out on a nothing delivery, a shot that he will play maybe once in 50 innings.

You know things are bad when even Jibby Ansari is optimistic

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

Agreed BUT Cook usually plays that when he's fully set. Never seen him get out to a bouncer.

 

[darksher]

Why is Isha giggling after that lbw shout?

 

[Syed1]

This is same English side that has habit of losing half their wickets for 20 odd runs. I wouldn't write off Pakistan just yet. Tomorrow morning it is going to be damp rainy conditions, we can rip through them in no time. Inshallah

 

[dauntless]

gal ni koi banni yaar

Drawn test match.
