Patrons have a good batting line up with Arafat at no 8.Now is the time for our fringe player to step up and make 400+ to put pressure on eng attack minus Flintoff and Harmison.

[Monsee]

Ashar gone off Anderson, caught by Vaughan

Zaidi played a bad shot getting caught at mid on on this pitch is criminal.

Yasir needs to get a big one now.

[saeed-sohail]

Hope it does not become 60/6 but good thing is our tress is still there and our test teams middle order is not playing here.

This looks more like Pak batting with kamal and yasir batting togather.

[Raz]

Indeed. Here the Patrons have two batsmen with international experience and a lot will depend on how they do here. This is perfect for Asim to score some runs and get himself into some form.

[Raz]

As for Yasir he also has a lot to prove.

[Toony™®]

49 for 3 (13.0 overs)

[Raz]

61-4, Yasir goes after playing so well. Anderson with 3 wickets so far.

[Raz]

Hameed c G O Jones b J M Anderson, i dont even want to try and guess what Hameed was doing when he got out.

[saeed-sohail]

Derek Pringle writes for telegraph that tress and vaughan were lucky to survive lbw appeals against Shah and he writes abt straus,s weakness against left arm quicks.With Najaf bowling well and Samiullah of Sialkot in top form we should pick one of these in squad for 1st test.

[Big Mac]

Hameed gets off to a good start before being caught behind. Never saw that coming...

Samiullah plays for Faisalabad and why do we need anyone else when we have superman Mo Khalil?

[Toony™®]

61 for 4 (16.0 overs)

The only positive coming out of this is that jimmy might get the nod for multan and that would be our gain.

[Raz]

70-4 after 17 overs

Who do you drop? People keep name dropping players they want to see picked for the team without thinking about who should make way or the balance of the side.

Sometime I wonder if people realise that you can only have 11 players in a test side

Well if hes got a good rhythm going then it wont be good news.

[Big Mac]

Anderson's wide half-volleys are going to be transformed into deadly wicket taking deliveries by our batsmen

[saeed-sohail]

I think we dont have a cert pick among our pacers for multan atleast we could ve picked one instead of Ash or Mush.

[Raz]

77-4 after 19 overs

[Toony™®]

79 for 4 (20.0 overs)

[Big Mac]

79/5 Faisal Iqbal gone caught behind off Plunkett

[saeed-sohail]

79/6 Kamal gone lbw by mr 3-0.

[Amjid Javed]

Pat x1 101/6 at moment.

[Amjid Javed]

How far did Yasir reach for the ball that got him out?

[jalex382]

why do you guys think that Eng dec at 256/9, is it because they wanted to use the new ball in the morning and get better results or they just thought its not worth getting more score on the board and wasting time?

[Saqib]

Can some one tell how this pitch looks like ?

Yasir Hameed & Asim Kamal playing does that means they are not going to make the first test ? Asim & Yasir have been both out form lately.

[hasanahmad]

how old is shahzad malik and is this the same player who many have called the future middle order batsman for pakistan?

[Toony™®]

[hasanahmad]
