Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
partnership looking very threatening from Pak POV
dropped catches by Sarfraz haven't helped
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
28.3
Yasir Shah to Root, OUT, oh no. Root falls. Not a great shot, I must say. Tossed up outside off, the flight was probably an invitation. He settled down on one knee and looks to slog sweep this over midwicket. Maybe a bit of extra bounce but Root skies this through a top edge. Hafeez wanders under the ball at midwicket and takes it, as awkwardly as possible. Job done though for Hafeez. Great opportunity missed, looked so good
JE Root c Mohammad Hafeez b Yasir Shah 48 (73b 7x4 0x6) SR: 65.75
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
Pakistan pacers soft on English batsmen... :D
Eng 147/3
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
4th gone
England 148-4
A wicket or two and Pakistan is into the tail
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
I heard India has called an urgent meeting of ICC to check Yasir's angle of arms, legs and all the other curves..
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
Yas sir!
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
Reminds me of this.. never gets old!
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
All top 6 batsmen have been sent back to pavillion, 193/6 :k:
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
Moeen ali is still there. I'm expecting England to take it somewhere 275-300.

Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
I am afraid as well Sid... they will take the score to around 275-300.
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
That's the problem. England bat deep
They might even take a first innings lead
We could only manage 339 from a position of 280 odd for 4. Our tail is simply not good enough at test or any level
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
Thats it...England 237-7
Pakistan into the tail...do not let it wiggle...

Yasir wicket Shah is their new nightmare
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
Great job by Yasir :k:
232/7 … Now Chris Woakes is the only problem, there may be some ‘fireworks’ before inning ends, we are still looking towards 270-290.
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
Has Pakistan forget how to ball Yorkers at the tail?
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
At stumps 253/7
It was yasir's day and had Pakistan fielded better and sarfraz not dropped catches off amir Pakistan might be batting in the second innings.
Well played Pakistan. Everyone was writing Pakistan off before the series. First Misbah and Shafiq and now Yasir have proved them wrong. Yasir did its magic on a pitch which is flat and not taking turn.
Wonder when ICC on the say so of the Indians will find the bend in his arm.
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
Two days in test--> Two big accomplishments by two Pakistanis
*Yasir Shah becomes the 1st leg-spinner with 5 wickets at Lord's in 20 years
*
With both Misbah and Yasir being the heroes of this match so far, the nightmare of Afridi continues..
Re: Pakistan V England - 1st Test match At Lords
Game evenly poised at the moment. Can Pakistan take a 50-run lead?
A lot now depends on how Pak bat in the second innings**
H/L Day 2 Pak Innings
