Pakistan v England 3rd Test

[brandon]

It's an hour long as well.

Good chunk of time to switch over to India v NZ

Games over really.

Ha’way man

 

[Rufus T Firefly]

Games over really. Best Paks can do is get parity from here 1st innings. Plenty of time to build a lead.

This is the best I've seen Rehan bowl. He's definitely come on since I saw him last.

Spot on about Rehan. Hope you're right about game over but we need to keep this standard going and not let the tail wag. Level-ish scores could be tricky for us.

 

[dangermows]

Talking about how drastic the prep of the pitch was. Even that it's been raked.

Shakeel on 70 odd so he's set and a key wicket.

 

[brandon]

WHY no Rehan? FFS.

I don’t get this at all. Lead is a slim one and they’re giving easy singles into the offside from forward defensive strokes

 

[zebediah]

Needed that to be on line to the stumps

 

[brandon]

Really don’t understand this tactic

 

[zebediah]

Haway, they have nothing after these two!

 

[viccarlton]

Why do younger people find it necessary to flash the V sign either forward or reverse when taking selfies etc.?
Baffles me

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Could really do with a wicket here. If they get close to parity, you could quite easily see an England collapse

 

[zebediah]

I swear sometimes Ben does the opposite just for the buggerance of it.
Would any other Captain on earth not immediately bowl Rehan after the break after what he did before it?

Not sure, but I'll be flashing a V sign at Mr. Stokes unless he sorts his bowlers out.

 

[zebediah]

Plumb surely

That’s the worry.

Plumb surely

Got to be, unless he’s hit it.

Bastard.

 

[zebediah]

Must have hit it surely?
Lucky bugger

GET REHAN ON!!!

 

[zebediah]

If you're going to bowl short you have to be bowling on line for the grubber

 

[SuperSub]

Don't quite understand the short ball tactic when it's spinning, feels we are just allowing Pakistan to tick over without any pressure

 

[brandon]

Atkinson is bowling absolute tripe here. This is a terrible terrible tactic.

It’s a load of bollocks. Atkinson isn’t quick enough and the pitch isn’t responsive enough to allow the ball to get high enough.

Literally the only benefit of having Atkinson on is that he might create more rough for the spinners.

Oh great, here another over of Atkinson bowling throw downs

yeah this isnt good, this is where youd like Wood or Archer, even Carse for pace, and if not just play the spinners

 

[Inside Forward]

England are the least ruthless cricket team with bat and ball in the world. Constant batting collapses under pressure and then constantly letting teams off the hook.
