Good Test this, hard to call.0

Pretty evenly poised at this point. The morning session tomorrow is crucial0

He doesn't appear to want to play at all now...Addick Addict said:Anderson strikes to dismiss Malik LBW who didn't appear to want to play a shot.

Perhaps he'll come and join he's brother at Bexley CC.Chizz said:

Ali bowled for a duck by Anderson.
Hafeez now 109* out of 166-40 -
229-4 at lunch and a lead of 157
Hafeez 145* (246)
Misbah 31* (73)0 -
It looks as though we might be clutching defeat from the jaws of victory0
-
Misbah out! LBW to Broad, 247-50
-
Hafeez gone too, caught in the deep by Bell off Ali
257-6 and a lead of 1850 -
319-8 at tea so Pakistan are 247 ahead
All three results still possible0 - Sponsored links:

I said initially anything more than 250 in the fourth innings chase will be too much... My opinion hasn't changed1
-
Broad cleans up Shafiq
Pakistan 282 ahead0 -
A run out to finish the Pakistan innings.
England require 284 to win and will bat for 22 overs tonight.0 -
284 is possible as the pitch hasn't deteriorated, but I wouldn't bet on it0
-
No more than one wicket down at close gives us the slightest hope..
My pred: 87-3 at close0 -
Ali takes a bad one on the back of the head and is somewhat dazed. Currently having treatment but looks OK to continue as he's asked for a replacement to part of his helmet.0

I know I keep banging on about Anderson & Broad but their spells in this match must rank as right up there with the greatest by an opening bowling pair in a Test match. This hasn't taken place in the comfort of Lords but in front of a sparse crowd in conditions that aren't conducive to toils of this nature.
To put it in perspective their combined figures were:
77.1-44-126-11
As against the rest of the team who produced:
116.2-16-446-7
I don't think we will truly understand how lucky we've been to have these two bowling for us over the last decade 'til their career is over. Hope they both have a few years left in them.

I'd be very surprised if Dinger was there by close1

Pakistan review a not out LBW against Cook0

But he survives - just0

Bell bowled by Malik0

Another LBW decision reviewed by Pakistan - this time against Root0
-
Umpires call so Pakistan have lost both their reviews0
-
46-2 at close and another 238 required on the final day.0
-
It could be a fantastic day's cricket tomorrow.....or we could be all out for 120 by lunch. Nicely poised0
-
Sadly, probably the latter Chrissy0
-
Bell needs to go, but there aren't exactly batsmen queuing up for his place sadly. Taylor deserved a go and I like him but who's next in line?
Means we need a 2 and a 3 realistically - Moeen is not an opener. Think Hales will get his chance opening, shame he wasn't given a shot here in at least one test rather than the baptism of fire v Saffers. Not convinced on him but he deserves the shot.
