Ha ha ha.....
We had a client visit this morning so I couldnt post on here.
125 for 4, so in effect 55 for 4..... Misbah's wicket was a huge blow but I reckon we'll be defending a lead of 210 when England go into bat again.
Love Boyc's summary....
"England will come back refreshed in the morning and there is no doubt in my mind that England will win. I'll put my house on it, all three of them if you want. It's been a terrific game of cricket. Stuart Broad's counter-attacking innings was the man-of-the-match performance. He did exactly what I prefer the late-order batsmen to do, go after the ball. Monty bowled very well and it was nice to see him get back into his old rhythm."

Sorry Saaf about your sadly missed absence this morning but l am sure England will finish the game quite quickly tomorrow so we can put you out of your misery as early as possible.

Hi Saff you mst have now cheered up Pakistan on 125-4 with a 55 run lead is starting to turn the game again if pakistan can hang around and get a lead of say 220-230 in that region batting last for England could well be tricky,Panesar and Swann were both getting the ball to turn today Panesar more so then Swann ,and very often small totals can pose a problem as the batting side get the wobbles still more to come from this match i feel.
Love Boycs summing up i liked him as a player though,as a commentator you always get a forthright opinion from him love him or loathe him,he does not do fence sitting  !
It should be an interesting next couple of days with the best team(England )
winning.

Pakistan reach 198-7 in their second innings, a lead of 120 over England, at lunch on day four of the second Test in Abu Dhabi.
|
Just 3 more wickets to get cheaply and then it looks like we can finish this test today.

Re: Cricket
Yes just three more wickets to get and pakistan with a relatively modest lead of 128 runs, looks like an England winner but i have learnt with England over the years to never count your chickens.
---------- Post added at 08:43 ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 ----------
198-8 game on after lunch just two more to get.
Wonder where Saaf is having a lie down as Pakistan get bowled out.
Surely England cannot lose this one now.

Looking very good now Richard and perhaps Pakistan can send Saaf in as the last man to help them in their moment of need.

They may need him denphone as Monty has just got another wicket for a 5 wicket haul.

Panesar grabs Guls wicket for a 6 wicket haul if England cannot knock the runs off now i will be amazed.

Re: Cricket
I think, even with England 4 down, we're still 30 short of a winnable total.
Having said that I think I'm feeling a lot happier than you 2 right now
---------- Post added at 11:32 ---------- Previous post was at 10:47 ----------
56 for 5..... It's very quiet in here
---------- Post added at 11:51 ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 ----------
68 - 6 . I still think Broad and Swann can save this for England. One more wicket before 80 runs are posted is needed!
---------- Post added at 11:52 ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 ----------
oh dear 68-7!!!! COMMMMMMMMMMMMMME ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
