To complete your statment....As long as Ijaz Butt is the Chairman.

All we need for you to be proved wrong is just one or two thrashings of Our team... :)

Yousef is 36 and past his best and a disruptive influence. Why bring in old and tired legs? When was the last time Yosef won a match for Pakistan? He should stay home!

Younis is a good batsman but he belongs in Bollywood. He is a king drama queen. If he was a girl you could say he's PMSing but in this case he is juts nuts!!!

Team is fine, but I would rather see Razzaq in for Malik. He has proven test match batting credentials, and his type of bowling is always good in English conditions. Experience doesn't hurt either.

As for the batting, I say lets run with the youngsters first and see how that goes before sending out any SOS's to the two Y's.

Damn, Azhar and Farhat. Pakistan managed to pass 250!!!!

Other than Trent Bridge, Pakistan can go about 320 in either innings. Mr. Anderson and company (the slow ones too) can murder our Chays. Azhar has good chance to play a Zaheer Abbas here, just dig in buddy. Sad that Salman is made captain when he was in his best form with the bat. I hope he can cope with it.

Don't have anything to say about our bowlers, really. Pakistan bowlers have always did best in England.

Dawn must really change their headline:

I've got three match-winners up my sleeve: Butt

I read it quickly, and in my haste somehow skipped over the word "sleeve" and almost choked!

Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2

Pak team unchanged from the last match.

and akmal drops a regulation catch off aamer's bowling. the wicket of strauss there would have been good but arghh

Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2

Mohammad Aamer to Strauss, no run, 84.5 mph, dropped! Kamran, what have you done? Perfect outswinger from Aamer, Strauss edges and Akmal puts down the simplest of chances. Kamran kept so well against Australia - relatively speaking, anyway - but this is the worst possible start for him against England

:mad2:

Akmal drops a sitter :aj: :aj: :aj: :aj:

Dropping catches is bad enough but for a wicketkeeper to be as poorly in position as he was then is really ordinary

Cook Gone Amir Gets his First :jhanda:

kamran Akmal can do a better job wearing a RED nose dancing in circus
Bloody midget

Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2

66/1

Re: 1st Test Pak vs Eng - 2010 in Eng -Nottingham - July 29-Aug 2

We must get Strauss soon! He look perilous

10.40am Ian Botham in his toss report says the decision was a no-brainer. It's dry and perfect for batting - despite the cloudy conditions overhead.

Andrew Miller is at Trent Bridge and he reports the following: "It's fairly overcast so far this morning, so plenty for the captains to ponder before the toss. The pitch is one you'd want to bat first on in ordinary circumstances, but I dare say whoever loses the toss will be quite relieved."
