    Absolutely. Probably got enough runs on the board now, but another 100 and that's the series IMHO

    These commentators man

    "Abrar has come in and smashed it everywhere"

    He's scored 3 boundaries mate., 2 of them off the edge. Calm down

    Oh, he's out :emoticon-0140-rofl:

    It's boundaries like that though that could well have won them the match. Might do so yet! But England should clean up these two wickets now

    GETIN!

    Got to love Joel Wilson - "looks like no bat involved, can we go to ultra edge?"

    Are you ****ing kidding me Joel? Massive deflection

    Great effort that. Stokes can get blood out of a stone. Clear that the bowlers will run over a cliff for him.

    Two wins in a week in Pakistan after two wins in sixty years . Something right here!

    Another thrill a minute Test. 22 players all contributing to a riveting game, it cant get any better. So much so, that with the test slowly inching to a close I was not really bothered about who would win it tbh, it was so good to watch. Is this I wonder the real difference between the Winter and Summer games, or was it the Durham connection winning the plaudits at the end, I wonder, should Picky have taken that penalty. . <laugh>.

    Ahmed makes his debut tomorrow. Jimmy rested and Jacks dropped. Foakes comes back in at 7

    Crawley, Duckett, Pope, Root, Brook, Stokes (c), Foakes (w), Ahmed, Robinson, Wood, Leach

    Always a gift is a run out mind. But sharp fielding . Queer carry on with Foakes hitting the stumps with one hand and then again with the other.

    Didn't realise that would be out, but they seem certain about it.
