Bopara out last ball, thank God he didn't get a not out.

Game on.. 250 can be made. :farhat
 
Excellent death bowling, horrible captaincy, poor acceleration by England.

Beware England, the Farhat cometh.
 
not bad bowling at all on flat wicket 250 is really chaseable and Pakistan should do it.
 
pathetic from england...whether we win or lose, Ive got to say that was mediocre!!
we seem to have whitewash hangover!
 
I think it's the toss thats killing pak players mood; they need get over that nonsense play their normal game!! geez inadequate performance from the captain, fielders and keeper I suppose..
 
58 RUNS in last 10 overs.

Good effort from pakistan.

I dont recon we will chase this down though. To many lulloo batsmen in the team
 
At the 45th Over Bopara should have just thought, slog everything and if he gets out then Kieswetter, whos a big hitter comes in and whacks a few.
 
Cook clearly mentioned in the presentation ceremony that the pressure of having fielders surround you is not there in odi as in test & that's why he / the team struggled in the test, yet Misbah won't put close-in fielders for him when it's obvious he gets nervous when surrounded
 
"misbah shouldnt feel too bad about it????" -waqar ...... are you kidding me?? some aggressive captaincy with good fielding and wicket keeping couldve seen england kept to under 230.
 
pitch seem to be more difficult compared to ist odi and batting under light facing swing.
Would be a very pleasant surprise if we win
 
Great work by Ajmal and Cheema at the death, Poor captaincy throughout by Misbah. It's weird because he did well against SL and others that we've played yet he goes completely against what we've been doing and let Cook (excellent knock) to rotate easily.

I'd be gobsmacked if Pakistan win this.

Can we just Congratulate England already :P

that why there is difference between odi and test match
 
Well, 250 seems like more than enough on this pitch, especially the way Pakistan batted against the moving ball the other day. Time to do some uni work instead!

You are also forgetting toss play important role here. Batting second will always be more difficult because of swing underlights.
 
Am the only one who's laughing at the English team?

Last ten overs, 215 runs on the board with seven wickets remaining and Pakistani bowlers not looking particular threatening, yet they only managed to get 250? Its actually very embarrassing.

I rate Pak as favourite now.
 
Hmmm, almost the same score as yesterday.

Today illustrates just how much we need a proper keeper, and don't be surprised if Umar has some sort of back injury. We really need a proper keeper. The bowling was a bit of colour as well.

I reckon we'll be 180 all out.
