The radio commentator on the BBC (Alison Mitchell) is bad enough. Having someone female on regardless of how bad they are is just pathetic.

Having someone female on just for the sake of it, when they're clearly not good enough is just pathetic

Afridi-time. One man who doesn't have to adjust his (lack of) mind-set for this game.

Six, first ball.

If Afridi goes off here then Scotland have no hope, if he gets out then they have some hope
