England should show the big heart similar to Pakistan, where they lost the winning game (1st test). Now its time to return the favor and excellent opportunity to show how good host they are. At least let'em draw..... Undecided

Actually they would have thought about that.  Grin Grin Grin

But the problem is that if this match ends up as a draw, then they may get only 13 points. That is a full 27 points less than what they would get, in case they manage to win this match. And trust me, 27 is a lot of points. Since England is trying really hard to achieve the no.2 slot, these points are very crucial for them. Especially after one test match lost due to rain interruption.

This match is pretty much over at this point. I don't think it will end in a draw since I have observed that England are great at wrapping up these games in recent times without dragging it out for too long.

This is probably why the English captain decided to let his batsmen continue batting past the 500 mark due to his faith in his bowlers. 2-0 will probably be the final result of this test series.

The weather prediction is not so good for the next 2 days. Today the weather is a little bit better and England should try to wrap up the Pakistani batsmen as soon as possible. Remember that they still have to take 16 more tickets to win this match.

Pakistan is batting in such a pathetic manner that they are going to lose this match even if half the overs are washed out as a result of rain. I really doubt whether they would be able to make a total in excess of 100 runs in the first innings. For England, only two bowlers are in peak form (Anderson and Broad) and even then they are able to terrorize the Pak batsmen.

Finally the match has resumes today after a short interruption because of the rain. Pakistan has not lost any wickets in the few overs bowled today and Azhar Ali is looking good. Pakistan needs him to make some good runs if they want to save this match.

Pakistan as usual bad start 7/1 Shan Masood Victim no 594 for Anderson so guys can he complete his 600 wickets in this test match or we have to wait for some more about this post your views here about this as match is really bad for me right now.

11/2 Abid Ali gone Anderson victim no 595 now just 5 more to go.

24/3 Babar Azam gone Victime no 596 for Anderson now just 4 more to go. Angry

Pakistan cannot win this  but its time to check if it is better to bet on England or for a draw on this match at this point.


Right now odds for draw are very good but still very risky because now Pakistani batsmen in not good shape and they can lost wickets very quickly if they able to hold tomorrow then surely its good as weather forecast for 4th and 5th day is not good but its Pakistan very unpredictable team Asad and Azhar also in not good form so just because of this I feel its very risky at this point.

The odds for the draw are good because it is uncertain that match will be effected by rain or not. But then you have to take the risk in such situation. You will not get good odds for draw if everyone is sure that match will end up in a draw. Those who bet regularly on matches, will take this risk and bet on a draw.

Rain can play its part and if it does not then it will be hard for Pakistan to win this test match. It is a completely one sided match now with such a big total on board by England.

Rain has hit the match again but this time it is only 20 mins of game pause which is fine. In the meantime, Pakistan started the days play with losing another quick wicket and are now 30/4 in 12.5 overs. James Anderson has picked all the 4 wickets and would try to pick couple of more in quick time as that they can all out Pakistan team today itself.
Another Rain delay, I do not think the match will resume this time early. I do not want this match to end in draw because of rain. England can easily win this match and the series by 2-0 if the weather supports them.

I think it is very risky betting on the draw as there is still a lot of time in this match even if there are rain delays. England have a huge first innings total and with the poor start from Pakistan it doesn't look good for them. They now need to build on this partnership if they want to avoid the follow-on because right now its not looking good for them. England have all the momentum and will be looking to take quick wickets in the morning session and put Pakistan under more pressure. I personally can't see Pakistan batting the full day.

You got crawley out  Angry I was expecting a triple ton from him, but he got out just when you made the above post  Cry
Sort of my words and i was shocked as i was watching the match while writing that and got out to one of the rarest form of dismissal in Test cricket and i did not expect a stumping.

England need to change gears now and add some quick runs on the board, give at least 15 overs to Pakistan to bat on. Who know if English bowlers gets lucky with the new ball.. they wont mind couple of early wickets.
Pakistan players were struggling against the seam bowling of James Anderson and they lost 3 wickets and as i expected Pakistan will be struggling to avoid the follow on.


Brother in current situation sending night watchman is never been good idea because right now you lost 3 wickets and if you send this then surely you are going to lost 4 wickets and more pressure currently Pakistani team is out of mind completely they need some good mentor and Misbah is not right man for them.
The idea behind sending the night watchman is to defend the rest of the few balls but the umpire called it a days as soon as Babar Azam lost his wicket, Pakistan needs a good captain to lead the team and he needs to have the freedom to select the team like they used to do in the past, finding raw talents on the streets small tournaments across the country and giving them opportunity.

So don't you think that sending a night watch man would have been a better idea because night watch man has no pressure and he could have played freely. You can see the result now as Pakistan has lost 3 wickets in no time and there top order has collapsed.  Sad

This is good for Pakistan as they would not want to bat in the depth overs for today. They will not mind if England score some more runs today.
I am not sure what England is thinking at the moment. The more overs they bat now, this will just move the match towards the draw if the rains effects the match in next 3 days.
There is still 22 overs left for the day and ENG are currently at 570 runs.. ENG is most probably looking at the 600 run mark in the next 5-7 overs and then declare. So Pak will have 15 overs to bat.
Not 15 overs most probably they have to play nearly 9 or 10 overs because now time is also running out very quickly and 15 overs left so they will reduce 3 overs for change as well

583/8 Broad gone and we have declaration now nearly 12 overs.

The first target for the Pakistani batsmen will be 383. If they are able to avoid the follow-on, it will be a big achievement for them. I hope we bat well this time and also do not lose any wickets.
Don't you think Pakistan should sent one regular opener along with one night watchman  at this time ?

Bad idea. There are still 12 overs left in the match and there is no reason to experiment anything. They should  go with the regular openers as they will be experienced enough to handle the England fast bowlers.
@MFahad you are quick to reply about this as I was also going to write same its never been good idea to send a night watchman as opener this can ruined your all batting line up very badly and Pakistan's batting is unpredictable so they cannot afford this right now specially in this test match.
