Pakistan v England, limited overs matches. UAE, 2015.

[hopeforthebest]

England don't do easy when batting.

[hopeforthebest]

Why is Hales trying to play some of these deliveries, just leave them.

[Aidan11]

Damn, I see Root didn't last long.


Fortunately Eoin "the Engine Room" Morgan is in now.

and we can rely on james "the nurdler" taylor coming in next drop

[backfootpunch]

interestingly chris woakes now has four 4 wicket hauls and two 6 wicket hauls in ODIs

this means he has taken 51% of his wickets in 15% of his matches

in asia he has 24 wickets in 12 matches @ 23.8
in england he has 5 wickets in 11 matches @ 88

Looking good so far, judging by the scorecard.

Looking good so far, judging by the scorecard.

as long as one of hales/morgan sticks around for a while we will be fine

what we dont want is them both getting out in quick succession

[Aidan11]

Looking good so far, judging by the scorecard.

Yep. Can't fail from here.

[Gingerfinch]

We do bat deep. Willey in at 10 is a comfort.

[Aidan11]

Not out, this.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Tough batting. Maybe Pakistan need to think about catchers.

I thought Morgan was pretty much in front there.

[Aidan11]

Quite an over from Zafar.

[backfootpunch]

Think zulfiqar babar might lose his test place if zafar keeps bowling like this

Was getting sharp turn then

[hopeforthebest]

Gohar getting too much turn to get LBW from the umpire.

[hopeforthebest]

The spin is going to be tough for the lesser batsmen so it's up to Morgan especially to see England home.
