Summary at stumps 97 - 0

1. Crawley brings up fifty off just 36 balls
2. England need 130 runs to win the series 2-1
3. South Africa slip from 83-2 to 169 all out
4. Stokes & Broad take three wickets each, Anderson & Robinson two apiece

So this is effectively a three day test, as we're the first two.

Summary of 3rd Test

1. England beat SA by nine wickets to win series 2-1
2. Crawley hits an unbeaten 69 to carry hosts to their target of 130
3. Robinson named player of the match for figures of 7-89
4. England have won six of their seven home Tests this summer

 

Ended up a good summer of test cricket

 

Entertaining but low quality IMO. The jury is still out.

 

First T20, Karachi
Pakistan 158-7 (20 overs): Rizwan 68 (46), Babar 31 (24); L Wood 3-24, Rashid 2-27
England 160-4 (19.2 overs): Hales 53 (40), Brook 42* (25); Qadir 2-36
England won by six wickets; lead series 1-0

 

How was the chase was it well managed? Only 4 balls left I see.

 

Yes, pretty well managed. They never really got out of 3rd gear (by T20 standards) and played low risk cricket. Brook is impressive.

 

England 199/5 from their 20 today.
Love seeing Moeen back in the team, and as captain in what you could call his ‘home’ (you know what I mean) and batting at his effortless and languid best.
Looking forward to the chase!

 

Pakistan absolutely cruise it.
203 without losing a wicket.

Brilliant batting

 

As was Harmanpreet Kaur (143 n.o.) for India women who blew our team away last night,
winning an ODI by almost 100 runs, and with it, the 3 match series.

 

Good reply today.

England win easily

1. England post 221-3: Brook 81* (35), Duckett 70* (42), Jacks 40 (22)
2. Pakistan 158 - 8.

 

Brook becoming the new Root? His figures so far are impressiv, but as I am unable to watch that is all I have to go on.

 

What a ****head end to the third womens ODI.
England making a decent fist of it, with the last pair at the
crease - and Deepti Sharma pulls the 'mankad' stunt! No warning, no nothing.
Just a bitter taste for everyone watching at lords and around the world. Bitch!!

 

Always a bad taste after these incidents.
India had the opportunity to withdraw the appeal, but refused,so the captain is as much to blame.
