Masood can't be skipper next game. He just can't0
-
Make that 41/4!0

Well we've certainly seen the two sides of Pakistan's batting in this Test. WTF was that shot?

Pakistan have an awful recent record in the 3rd innings...0
-
41/4 Brydon Carse 1st ball and Duckett takes a smart catch.0
-
Pakistan's coach, Jason Gillespie, looks somewhat dizzy with incredulity at that!1

What is the highest first innings score, to go on and then lose by an innings ?0

Just looked it up, this would be the highest in Tests - it would be the joint 3rd highest first innings score to then go on to lose, and none of the other 3 were by an innings.1

But I don't know what the biggest score until now was!0

Great bowling from Carse0

59/5 and Brydon Carse strikes again.0

Many of England's top runs scorers have enjoyed their own personal records against India or Pakistan but most of those weren't, as one might think, set in the Indian subcontinent. In fact, the roads at the The Oval and Lord's feature rather a lot. Individual top scores against any Test opposition:
Graham Gooch v India (333) at Lord's
Harry Brook v Pakistan (317) at Multan
Dennis Compton v Pakistan (278) at Nottingham
Zak Crawley v Pakistan (267) at Southampton
Alastair Cook v Pakistan (263) at Abu Dhabi
Joe Root v Pakistan (262) at Multan
Ian Bell v India (235) at The Oval
Wally Hammond v India (217) at The Oval
David Lloyd v India (214*) at The Oval
Ian Botham v India (208) at The Oval
Mike Gatting v India (207) at Chennai
Michael Vaughan v India (197) at Nottingham
Alec Stewart v Pakistan (190) at Birmingham
Dennis Amiss v India (188) at Lord's
Paul Collingwood v Pakistan (187) at Lord's
Jonathan Trott v Pakistan (184) at Lord's
Colin Cowdrey v Pakistan (182) at The Oval

Leach showing why he is still England's number one spinner. Good take from Smith too.2

Good for Leech after his injury forced him to miss matches but if Jack had taken the wicket with his 1st ball and not his 2nd ball that would've been a hat trick of 1st ball wickets after Wokes and Carse.

With the next Test starting on Tuesday, Stone leaving the party, there will be at least a couple of bodies and minds in the bowling department that won't be 100% come next Tuesday. Much will depend on whether Stokes can return and bowl too because, if he can't, then we either have to drop a batsman or go in with just four bowlers (meaning dropping a spinner because I can't see us playing just two quicks on that track). For those reasons, I don't see how Stokes goes back into the side if he isn't fit enough to turn his arm over in a meaningful way?

Another poor wicket prepared for this Test.
Should all be over in 4 day's.
Oh for a good batting wicket.2 -
Pakistan's 2nd innings collapse was predicted by a lot of pundits even before their battering by the Yorkshire Tykes .. all sorts of records set by England, there should be a 'handicap' method of measuring records according to the pitch, opposition etc .. all in all I am enjoying this test, but hope that Pakistan can make a better fist of things during the rest of the series0

1531 runs over 4 days on a minefield of a pitch 🤥0 -

Also the previous total (as shown in an earlier post) of 492 was by Ireland. So a recent Test playing nation & not a longstanding one like Pakistan.
Anyway, I now expect Pakistan to get a (small) lead & make us bat again. But would love to win by an innings & own a record that probably wont ever be beaten.3 -
No way are we batting again in this game0
-
Won't be long before the spinners will be on because the ball is back to doing next to nothing in the first 20 minutes or so0
-
Given how desperate the people of Pakistan were to have a return to hosting Home Tests, the record of the players has been abysmal - since 2022 and after this game it will be: Played 11, Won 0, Drawn 4, Lost 7. Away from home it hasn't been anywhere near as bad: Played 7, Won 3, Drawn 0, Lost 4.0

At last.
Leach strikes to break a very good partnership0
