Maybe England should give 5 test matches to New Zealand. Im sure that will draw a lot of money from the south asian community in England and around the world for Sky.

Maybe ECB should just keep playing Australia and India for 5 tests each summer [MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION]
That will do justice to cricket?
At least it was better than Misbah's tuktuk era. Current generation are too timid and don't even able to play big shot
They learned LOT, LOT from his bowling - hence, from the days of Intekhab, Qadir, Saq, Mush & Danish ... PAK is the team these days where darters galore. His fielding was nothing to learn from to be honest.
There is a middle path between tuk tuk and big shot. That is important in test cricket
tow or three boundaries and england will come under pressure

Pakistan looking like they will be all out for under 200.
I still don’t think England will get much more than 250 though. They have their own vulnerabilities to the moving ball.
Hopefully ECB will do what CA did and downgrade us from 3 Tests to 2 Tests.
These poster boys of mediocrity do not deserve to play a 3 Test match series in England, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand.
By that logic AUS shouldn't tour Asia for the next two years.
Sometimes I wonder if you had a secret lobotomy done as a child.
Since 2016, Pakistan have produced 5-6 enthralling Test matches in England. Today they are 175-7 in seaming conditions batting first.
It is time to downgrade them to 2 Test matches like Australia has
how is the soft signal out????
You are making the fundamental mistake like many - playing big shot is not an issue of attitude, rather it’s a matter of your technic and skills. Don’t ever think that 5’6” Saeed Anwar used to hit big, because he had big heart.
because he believed Root did not grass it. He does not have a TV
I mean our current team not a single player has ability to play like Afridi/Jaya/Kalu/Greatbatch
. Afridi if he used his brain would go far in batting.But our current batsmen none has ability to score 4s and 6s to scare opposition. They are too timid. Neither technique nor ability.
Thats a silly comment.
You only have to look at the fielders reaction...if the fielder is unsure then how can the umpire be sure??
get it?
Didn't see any improvement in batting since Younis appointed as batting coach.
we need foreign coaches with proper teaching skill.
Well done boys, shabash. Take the conditions out of the equation
Can they make 200?
I miss the days of Rana Naved, Umar Gul, Tanvir etc just having a go and playing cameos to get the run rate going.
Courage comes with ability. Babar can play every type of shots in book and he does play aggressively, even on his day Asad is a fantastic driver & cutter of the ball. But, do you really think what Rizwan is doing here is because of lack of courage or the way Azhar, Imam, Shan, Abid normally plays has noting to do with their shot making ability?
Yes, but we have new bowlers and we need a decent score. Conditions or not, loss is a loss.
