England test tour of Pakistan December 2022

[Sunil1z]

Got to be said that this must be one of the worst pitches I have ever seen. Ridiculous to score that many so easily in a day.

It is a part of hospitality package.

Nah, just a good toss to win.

Nah, just a good toss to win.

It is going to be even funnier if starts becoming really inconsistent by Day 3.

Kohli who hasn’t scored a Test century in last 3 years would be texting BCCI to tour Pak soon

Haha they'd probably give him three greentops.

Can't judge the pitch until you've seen Liam Livingstone bowl on it.

It really will. Pakistan, or at least Ramiz, gambled everything on trying to draw the series from the outset (despite is completely ****ing their WTC chances) against a team who's done this several times now. They've so royally screwed themselves it would be unjust if they escaped with a draw.

Jessop's record is safe for the moment, but Stokes will pose a real threat imminently.

 

[Chubb]

Easy mode on Brian Lara Cricket.

 

[BazBall21]

Stokes really wants that 500.

 

[Stefan9]

This has been brilliant to watch from. A batting perspective.

 

[morgieb]

Stokes is already on 30 without really breaking a sweat. It's like Stick Cricket on steriods.

 

[Prince EWS]

I think this pitch is a bit of a road.

 

[Starfighter]

The cricinfo comms for this match have a real thing for the verbs 'boshed' and 'cuffed' today.

 

[BoyBrumby]

BBC feed feeling very pleased with itself:

 

[CricAddict]

Mohammed Ali getting punches left, right and center

 

[Prince EWS]

Good decision to take them off for bad light, looked really tough to bat out there in these conditions.

He's scoring twice as fast as he did in the World T20.

Is it too soon to declare England the GOATs?
