Highlights of day 4 of the last test, have to say on looking from just the 1 angle I'd have said the catch to get Shakeel out was dragged across the ground. At about 2.30. https://www.google.com/search?clien...#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:bc5eae10,vid:Qu1Q2Kkz-UI

There’s some serious batting talent too. Very unusual to all fail together, particular vs a respectable score from the opposition.
Many in the know are suggesting we witnessed the birth of an English cricketing global superstar today. 18 year old Rehan Ahmed became the youngest player to play for,England, ever. He’s only played three games for his county, but this management team had no hesitation. The fact he is a leg spinner makes it more extraordinary and exciting.
Sky showed a clip from 2017, when he'll have been about 13, showing him bowling at Lord's in front of Shane Warne, with Warne giving him high praise and saying he expected to be commentating on him in the future. The room suddenly went very dusty
Curiosity got the better of me, so looked this up on Cricinfo. Farhan Is aged 14 and a regular for Notts 2nds! Older brother Raheem is rubbish, aged 19 and has only played a few for Leicestershire 2nd’s! His dad played too, so Raheem is probably not even been third best player in his family
Brook's has got his 100, what a player he is. What happened to Rooty, he seem really out of sorts. 249-5
Brooks is a fantastic young batter never looks phased or frightened - there’s a real talent who should be around for a long time
harry brook has scored 468 runs so far in this series. that's more than any other english batsman in a series in pakistan.
england have scored 88 test sixes this year, which appears to be the record (data missing for some years long past).
Think Root is maybe struggling to adjust to the new ‘way’ maybe goes for a ball he shouldn’t or wouldn’t have before but feels obligated . Tell him he can still play the way he always has because he scored fast without risk
Just 55 to win tomorrow morning, it looked as if we are going to win 3-0 in Pakistan for the first time ever, some achievement.
The England Cricket team must be a contender for the team of the year on BBC Sports PTY awards this week, surely? We know the Lionesses will get it and probably the SPOTY award too.
