England vs Pakistan Test Series

[Pubey]

anyone else see that we were 5-0 and then did a check just to make sure pakistan hadn't already batted?!:D

 

[The General]

Cook dropped in 3rd slip. Absolute dolly.

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

Cook given caught behind but he hit his pad not the ball and is reprieved on appeal

Unlike Billy Bowden to make such a mistake but all resolved eventually

 

[Bluesmanager]

And we're off for light. Very much doubt we'll get more play today.

 

[superblue24]

Cook gone early doors for 10.....39/2

KP just gone for a golden also

39/3.....Was about to say "all they need to do is occupy the crease til the clouds clear"

Guess the batsmen didnt think so!

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Colly out LBW for 0 after a review, 39/4...

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

0 for 3 this morning.

 

[superblue24]

Game over, chaps......

Next few days are likely to be "batting days" which will benefit Pakistan allowing them to put together a huge total.

We can only pray for rain now

We'll be bowled out by tea, plenty of time to get them 30-5.

 

[superblue24]

By tea, the weather is supposed to be sunny

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Fourth batsman departs without scoring today.

 

[superblue24]

Jesus christ! We are diabolical!

 

[Grayson]

By tea, the weather is supposed to be sunny

I think I was being optimistic anyway, we won't reach tea!

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

No wonder Ponting predicted 5-0 again. Absolute shambles.

 

[Shrimper]

Absolute shambles is putting it lightly. Have they not learnt their lesson from the previous test match?

 

[Grayson]

Some brilliant bowling this morning. As I type Prior just received a ball directed on leg stump that fizzed past the off-stump and outside edge. It's swinging a lot, and we're getting bowled out, not getting ourselves out. Except KP, who played a rubbish shot to a wide ball that did nothing.

 

[Bluesmanager]

We're England. We're headstrong numpties who like to try the same tricks over and over again until someone has the common sense to work out that it's not working. Of course we haven't learnt from the last Test.

What were the lessons we should have learnt from the last test?

 

[Grayson]

Any team in the world would be getting bowled out this morning. Rubbish weather for about a fortnight, overcast day. Conditions are a bowler's paradise.

 

[Bluesmanager]

I dunno, my brother's the teacher, do I look like Einstien to you?

I would, however, argue that learning to bat beyond twenty balls would be a progressive move.
