Glimpse of a draw for Pakistan?...........

 

[lfcpower]

Weather looks pure **** tomorrow, it'll be a draw for sure. Hopefully Jimmy can pick up number 600 though in the probable 30 minutes of play we'll get, should be better conditions for bowling than today ... if they get to do any

 

[lfcpower]

One thing from today is that Root is a fairly decent spin bowler and should probably do a bit more of it ... nice action, good accuracy and variety

 

[Red Hadron Collider]

Looking at the weather today, there's a good chance there'll be no play. Jimmy will be even more gutted about those dropped catches

Rain......inspection at 1:40 p.m.....................what a series this has been

 

[Red Hadron Collider]

If we'd won this, we'd have jumped over the convicts into 2nd place in the test rankings - and Jimmy would have had 600 +

 

[Red Hadron Collider]

Wonderful achievement for any bowler, never mind a quickie. Well, done Jimmy Anderson 600 and counting

 

[organic red]

All over.........end of test.......end of series

 

[lfcpower]

I think the only reason they got them out today was to give Anderson a shot at 600, because there was no way that was ending in anything but a draw

Incredible from Jimmy. Just gets better and better as well. Can he get to 700.. way he’s going if he stays injury free then wouldn’t put it past him. Another 2 or 3 years might be enough to get that next 100

Match on the telly today ... weather looks dry in Mancland ... for the time being

I can see why you say that but I can't see him making 700, it's a big ask considering realistically how many tours will he go on and tests will he play in? But who really knows

Some big 6s from Ali, gonna be a close finish

 

[Red Hadron Collider]

Very close

 

[RogerisontheHunt]

England have well and truly ****ed this one up.

Need to learn to take more wickets, early wickets at that.

 

[RogerisontheHunt]

Well I be!

Not sure how the Aussies managed to lose that.

 

[Solid Air]

that was funny as **** to watch .
not much beats watching the convicts lose to us particularly when they have thrown it away

 

[InBiscanWeTrust]

Great come back. All from that rashid over Australia just couldn’t get the ball away. Nice win in the end.

 

[lfcpower]

Was a good close match that

Archer should stop wearing those ridiculous gold chains though, they're probably costing him 5-10mph as well as just being needlessly ostentatious

 

[Red Hadron Collider]

Don't like 20 :20, but any win against those ****s, especially when they're pissing it.
