I'd be very surprised if we didn't have enough runs. Highest run chase in test cricket at Edgbaston is 282. They need 296. Not sure about first class cricket, couldn't find anything on that.
 
Forget this match, that's Abbas done for the season. With hamstring injuries, he's facing at least a month out.
 
There's been many contenders for the most stupid shot of the match but that has to be right up there, given the time of the day and match situation.
 
Kevan James mentioned that Mo is "struggling" on the stream, doesn't sound good. Barker and Daws really need to be backed up well tomorrow.

Barker and Wheal with the new ball could be big too.
 
Given that Abbas is on the field we're obviously going to give him a go with the new ball. Whether he's fit enough remains to be seen.
