You have to give lot of credit to Wahab Riaz also, he stuck out there and saw the shine off the ball, making it easier for our batsmen. We saw that wickets fell when new ball was taken.

Cricket is a funny game. Yousuf could have easily edged one out-swinger or got himself runout. It would have added to his horrible dropped catch and the comments here would have been totally different.
His presence did make a difference for Azhar Ali..I hope the point is taken by PCB on how to introduce new talent.

The pitch is a batting paradise. If our bowlers don't make use of the first session tomorrow, England has a better chance of putting up a big total. This English team has shown vulnerability and it can collapse like Pakistan...hopefully it will.

Re: Pakistan vs England, 3rd Test, Wed Aug 18 - Sun Aug 22

did Wahab actually bowl as well as his figures suggest or was it one of those cases when Asif/Aamer built all the pressure but the batsmen conceded their wickets on the other end to Wahab?

Re: Pakistan vs England, 3rd Test, Wed Aug 18 - Sun Aug 22

Wahab bowled quite well. He was fast (around 88-89 mph throughout), on target, and aggressive. There's nothing you can ask more from a fast bowler.

Yousuf 56 (108) First recognized batsman who scored fifty in this series :lajwab:
Azhar 92 (178) This is showing his capability as a Test Batsman.

After a long period I"m looking that Pakistani Batsmen playing more then 100 balls in an inning…This is the beauty of Test Cricket, just irritate the bowlers by staying on the pitch and then start scoring runs after getting bowler’s moral down.
As i said if Yousaf cross 10 then he will score at least fifty and he did it. InshaAllah he has resumed his form and will continue to score more & more runs.

Re: Pakistan vs England, 3rd Test, Wed Aug 18 - Sun Aug 22

from Cricinfo:

Meanwhile, there are reports emerging from Pakistan that Younis Khan could be in line for a recall after the player and board patched up their differences. It's all very sketchy at the moment, but one to keep an eye on.

Saeed Ajmal to Anderson, OUT, 55.1 mph, gone! He strikes first ball and this one turned nicely outside off, took Anderson's outside edge and Kamran held a sharp catch behind the stumps
