Doing ok though. Pak batsman not got away and the England batsman should enjoy batting on this.

Butt dropped, but it was a fine effort from Kieswetter. Have been impressed by the little bit of his keeping we've seen in this tournament.

Finally got a wicket. Still not pitching it up, but at least Butt's gone.

Well done Broad, clearly bowling short the thing to do

No problem with pitching it short. Just needs to be at them.

Really? Good effort, but he put it down, and he put down the ball before, not a catch, but I'm a little worried about him with the gloves. We'll see.

Yeah, short and wide was what they were doing at first, which was causing my ire. Lets face it it's not the first time these three have done that.

More short-pitch rubbish from Bresnan. This has been horrible stuff from England. We're just lucky that they've not got too many. Just need to hope Sidebottom doesn't bowl again.

This is a cracking pitch. Its just a pity that England dont know how to bowl on it. Yardy to get pasted IMO.

So what do we reckon for a final total - around 180?

EDIT
Maybe not - Butt's just gone and they're not going crazy just yet.

This over's going well. First Umar Akmal gone (though should have been stumped the ball before) and next ball Afridi has a brain-fart and runs himself out. Awesome.

Afridi reminds me of Michael Scott/David Brent from The Office
