Good comeback by Yardy tbf. Could have had Akmal twice.

EDIT
And now he gets Misbah - end of a very good spell.

King Pietersen · 06-05-2010, 08:26 AM

That's how to put away Broad's idiotic round the wicket tactic. Hopefully that'll put an end to that plan for good.

Pothas · 06-05-2010, 08:27 AM

Nah he will never give it up.

tooextracool · 06-05-2010, 08:30 AM

Yeah much like with his strategy with the short ball. Not a quick learner.

King Pietersen · 06-05-2010, 08:32 AM

Another one for Yardy. Been impressed by his bowling, has gone much better than many were expecting.

GingerFurball · 06-05-2010, 08:38 AM

How has Sidebottom retained his place? He's ****ing dreadful.

King Pietersen · 06-05-2010, 08:38 AM

Brilliant. Sidebottom's back to ruin all the good work done by the spinners. If he still plays after this effort then he must be doing 'favours' for Andy Flower.

GingerFurball · 06-05-2010, 08:41 AM

Sidebottom not capable of pitching it up?

King Pietersen · 06-05-2010, 08:44 AM

Lovely catch from KP. Just a shame it earnt Sidearse a wicket really. Sure that one'll secure his place for the rest of the tournament.

Unibrow Alam gone too. This is going surprisingly well.

Scaly piscine · 06-05-2010, 08:50 AM

What's the pitch like? Only just got back. Quick skim suggests a few instances of giveaway runs (no-ball free hits, endless short tripe etc.) yet Pakistan only have 123-7 at the moment.

King Pietersen · 06-05-2010, 08:52 AM

Seriously, Sidebottom, just go home.

Oh, what a surprise. He picks up another gimme wicket at the end of an over leaving him with 2. He'll be playing the rest of the tournament then.

GingerFurball · 06-05-2010, 08:53 AM

**** me, useless again from Sidebottom.

And as I type that, gifted a wicket.

tooextracool · 06-05-2010, 08:53 AM

Razzaq is just an absolutely unbelievable player in this format. Pity he comes in so late.

Scaly piscine · 06-05-2010, 08:53 AM

**** off Sidearse.

Looks a decent pitch to me, got some pace in it, true bounce, should be a 160 pitch really. Pakistan haven't batted well, IMHO, but our spinners did well.

I really reckon England should of gone with Tredwell over Bres or Sidebottom.
