any thoughts on why England didn't bat first?

 

[Amjid Javed]

some good pace and bounce in surface.

 

[Jonty]

hopefully super sub will not be required until second innings

 

[Amjid Javed]

pak 13/0

 

[zushy_786]

any thoughts on why England didn't bat first?

- Dew conditions
- Movement in the pitch during 1st hour
- Easier to bat under less humid conditions
- Wanted to change it up
- Confidence in batsmen to chase any score pakistan produces

 

[karachiite]

Whats the pitch like? Any movement off the pitch for the new ball?

 

[nafajafam]

13-0 2 overs

 

[Amjid Javed]

any thoughts on why England didn't bat first?

I guess they fancy their chances chasing.

 

[karachiite]

any thoughts on why England didn't bat first?

Batsman as a supersub

 

[Amjid Javed]

Whats the pitch like? Any movement off the pitch for the new ball?

Pitch is shiny and hard. good even pace and bounce.

flintoff is getting ball to swing alot.

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

kami misses out on a ball down legside as it hits his pads

 

[Amjid Javed]

single for akmal. super fielding in ring saves 2/3 runs.

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

nice drive for a single. Could have been 4 had it not been for a good piece of fielding by prior i believe

 

[nafajafam]

nice drive by akmal but well fielded, only 1 run

 

[karachiite]

Pitch is shiny and hard. good even pace and bounce.

flintoff is getting ball to swing alot.

Is he swinging it both ways???

 

[Amjid Javed]

Flintoff probing away @ Butt (no rudeness intended)

 

[nafajafam]

good bowling by flintoff so far.

 

[zushy_786]

Flintoff probing away @ Butt (no rudeness intended)

Sicko

 

[Amjid Javed]

Is he swinging it both ways???

no. one way. into lefty & away from right hander.

 

[Raz]
