Pakistan V England Test Series

[spursmatt]

Any people watching the cricket?

What are your views so far?

England all out 1st innings for 192, currently day 2 and pakistan are 248-5

[Rev John Ripsher]

We are rusty but slowly we are getting back into it . The pitch is a snooker table at the moment , wait till it starts to break up .

[spursmatt]

Yeah, i'm not too worried yet.I would be nice to get them out today. Swann will have a lot more influence in the second innings i would think

[spursmatt]

Big wicket-Misbah gone

[Rev John Ripsher]

I would have used Trott more and KP some in the bowling .

Jimmy just got another

[spursmatt]

Trott did well when he came in, should given him more overs i agree . Yep, back in it now

yup , 8 overs for just 16 runs . He bowls just like he bats !!!!!

Fooking hell, got absolutely battered

Worrying tbh, hope it serves as a wake up call to the batsmen in particular!

[Rev John Ripsher]

Best of 3 , we win the next 2 .

Great morning for England. Stuart Broad immense! Can't see Pakistan winning this one but a draw could be on the cards...come on boys!

[Fatboyyid]

Been impressed with Broad over the past few months.

A good display with bat & ball this test. A good all rounder.

Whoops! All out for 72. Oh dear.

[Rev John Ripsher]

utter garbage , can't anyone bat ?

[rossdfc]

Jeeeeeezz....what the hell was that?! Humiliating really.

Against all spin, you need to come forward and get the feet to the pitch of the ball to stop the angle of deviation. The best shots to play are the sweep or drive, not flapping like the batsman unfortunately did.. England just kept going back in the crease and had no confidence. Granted it is easier said than done against high quality spin bowling, but they are professionals and England's batting line up is way way stronger than Pakistan's..

Broad had it right in the first innings, other batsman need to take note.. KP needs to be dropped (controversial I know) to rest him so he can find some form replacing with Ravi Bopara who is one of the best players of spin in the team.. Total disastrous performance and the players need to wake up and smell the coffee...
