I said about the brainfart. Rashid clearly had one. I cant account for that kind of idiocy. Seriously, what the actual fck was he thinking.

Harsh to blame him though, was only one along with Root and Wood to show any real backbone.

I didnt want to make it sound like I didnt value his effort, but what's so frustrating is he looked in complete control. Really composed, great shot selection, knew when to leave or pad away. Bowlers were just huffing and puffing. For him to throw it away like that, just couldnt understand it.

Lost by 6 overs... the Batsmen just needed to last out an over each on each innings and could have easily saved the game.

Pakistan 118-5 first innings.

Come on England!

Bowl them out for 200 would be fantastic.
 
230-9, wrap this one up now would be nice.

Problem is pitch is apparently spinning... And although we're playing 3 spinners, they've all been expensive and it's the 2 seamers who have kept things tight.

Just feel pakistans spinners will be a lot harder to play against than ours have been... And we'll have to bat last. Don't want to be chasing 200 batting last on here.
 
118-3 bell well set on 38. Nows the time for him prove his critics wrong and get a big score in a crucial innings.
 
Technically 5 down with Stokes not batting...
Still 95 behind too...
Unless these two put on a partnership, can see Pakistan taking a lead into the second innings..
And with this likely to be a low scoring game, any lead could be highly advantageous!

Especially batting last, don't want to be chasing anything over 150 on his wicket.
 
Nice partnership this. Taylor going well into 60s now. Been overdue a recal to the team and glad he's taking it, classy player that should have played in last previous 2 games.
 
12 behind at cop wth 6 (5 if butler doesn't bat) wickets left.

Taylor 74
Bairstow 37

Lead of 100 minimum is on the cards here.
