    Only one Yorkshireman, and he's a South African!

    Born in Roehampton Surrey, went to SAF aged 7. Still not a Yorkshireman though.

    No idea how Brook wasnt picked. He's just almost singlehandedly won us a county championship game. Looking at the spread of counties represented, I do suspect selectors may have done this purposely, to give the county game some credibility.

    Could be a good game this one. Pakistan took 2 early wickets, then England knocked it about a bit, then 2 more quick wickets fell. 134/4 off 21 overs.

    Pakistan on top. England 160/6, no first choice batsmen left and 20 overs still to go. :emoticon-0107-sweat:emoticon-0107-sweat

    Mahmood looks a class bowler.

    We do have some serious talent, that was a second string team that has hammered then twice.

    Another good performance by England 2nd or maybe even 3rd stream of players. Mahmood looks really impressive and has a future at Test level once Anderson and Broad bow out. The strength in depth in white-ball is quite impressive.
