**Game in the balance

**England would feel that they can get this total (324) having knocked off 36 runs for the loss of no wicket.
:
If you take away Younis and Azhar’s innings, 81 runs is the contribution of the rest of the 9 batsmen!!!

I am very disappointed. I was hoping to see score of 400+ but looks like nobody else was interested enough to grind it out.

^I agree, its absolute nonsense to keep a bowler in the side for 10 overs in the whole match, who cannot even bat. Even Wahab would have been a better choice with so many left handers in English side or Umar Akmal shud have been included.

Secondly, those who were asking for Pakistani batsmen to go beserk after total reached 300 runs shud think again. Umar Gul played like 38 balls for 2 runs. He had no problem blocking the spinners but every time he tried to hit hard, he found it difficult and eventually got out.

Probably they don’t want to add Wahab until ‘all is well’ i.e. investigations.
