Great shot. Defend outside off and pace it through massive onside gap if the ball is on mid. 6 from over and totally unnecessary wicket. Play the smart shots and tick over the score board here.
That's 3 from over without any risk. Then stokes chases another wide risking a nick. 4 from over without really any shots.
Brook decides to expose wickets twice chasing a bit hit. Gets smashed on elbow. Well done. Ffs put pressure on them not us. I sincerely doubt brooks can continue there. That'll stiffen right up.
Not been able to rotate the strike properly and just being bogged down a bit and let Pakistan’s get back into the game with the run rate. England still favourites, one big over can take this away from them but just not able to hit boundaries at the moment.
Come on England.a few good shots. Still take the 2s if they push the field out. Stokes looks ****ed though. Have to make the runs that's all. No panic but just play the shots and run
Still need some boundaries here. Not scored many and rate is creeping up. 4 and 6 from stokes in 2 balls there! That’s more like it
Much more like it. 4 off first ball puts pressure on. another 4 off next ball. This could be the over that seals it.
That over was crucial. Wrong risk taken by Pakistan really. 24 from 23 needed Push 1s and its done They must move the field up.
20 from 23.needed 5 good shots for 4 not even 5 big hits. Just keep the strike turning over. No wickets now
That should be it now! Lucky top edge 4 but been huge over in context of last 8 overs where boundaries been hard to come by.
don’t want to be going into last over ideally. But if you do, make sure only chasing 1 or 2 runs. Anything around 6 suddenly becomes awkward with field up stopping singles.
