Still 7 overs left and I don't see Rashid shielding Anderson which is a bad move.

So Pakistan in with a good chance. Great chance.
 
Not easiest catch but at this level and considering match situation should have been taken.

Has the match been dropped?
No man...do you really think no.11 batsmab can survive for 10 overs against this quality of spin on 5th day?

“Just fabulous,” writes Robert Wilson. “Think internationally. Think American.

Featuring the almost exact opposite of the will to win or to entertain, a last gasp stand of almost no scoring and near-spiderlike inertia comes nowhere close to succeeding and yet proper cricket fans are all helplessly aglow with delight and admiration at its brilliance.

This, dear friends, is why we are the special people.”

Quite a dramatic description by a Guardian commenter :))
 
Is Adil reading the ball too wel or is it luck?
 
Rashid ha to shield anderson there is no way anderson i surviving another over.

Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
 
Jesus Christ.

What a finish. Another crazy finish.

Adil Rashid with moment of madness considering off-side field, drive not on.
 
YAYYYYYY!

Alhamdulillah! Great job by the boys, MashAllah. Nothing better than a close test match victory.
 
Oh Adil, what have you done? Cover point?

A wonderful brave rearguard, and he just needed to concentrate twenty more minutes!
 
This is what pressure does.
For hours when there was no pressure and England loss was on the cards Adil Rashid was brilliant.

However when we entered the real crunch time pressure tells. Happened too many times in same situation
 
Excellent test match.

Played Pakistan - exerting more pressure than England for a greater part of the match. Riaz's long spell was the turning point.
 
Relax yaar, we've got this in the bag.

All part of Misbah's master plan to make England think they have a chance only to cruelly snatch it away at the last moment, thus amplifying the pain a hundredfold.

Rashid was well set and what he has done.Had he been playing under Imran Khan, The Captain, Rashid would have been given a lesson being dropped for next 3 matches.

I thought Jimmy will be the one who will throw it away. Rashid could've easily batted three fourths of the balls remaining.
 
I guess he was looking for single. Might have thought Riaz would change end and attack Jimmy.

Anyway congrats Pakistan and well fought England. Gave Pakistan two real fights in two tests, exactly not what all PP fans thought would be.
 
That was an incredible innings from Rashid (and Broad/Wood too) but what on earth was he thinking at the end?

Maybe he wanted to cross over so that Jimmy doesn't have to face Riaz at the other end. Jimmy is terrible against bouncers..
