One things for sure they won't be able to just 'Bazball' their way through the last innings, it'll need some brain power.those two drops could prove costly. can't see us getting the target, but damn sure we will give it a good go.

I he was that far down I thought he was popping to the local Tesco.That’s a shocker by Crawley![]()
Why do they lack brain power? This team has given us so much, they're not one dimensional at all. Let's face it, even peak 90's Aussies wouldn't chase this on that track. They have a style of play, it works an awful lot, but sometimes things don't.Well so far brain power not engaged and they're 11/2!
Will England become known as just flat track bullies?![]()
Cause Crawley came down the wicket to only his second ball off Noman! That's why, didn't take his time to look at the bowling, see what the bowler was doing! I'm talking about now, not generally! Calm down poppet!Why do they lack brain power? This team has given us so much, they're not one dimensional at all. Let's face it, even peak 90's Aussies wouldn't chase this on that track.

Personally I think the wicket has been a disgrace. For 2 tests, there's been about 2 days where it's been a decent contest between bat and ball out of 8.
You're always at it though, first sign of us not winning and your toys are out of the pram. They play front foot cricket, get over it poppet.Cause Crawley came down the wicket to only his second ball off Noman!

I said SO FAR, hardly toys out the pram is it, and I always give credit where it's due, so far it's not due. I've not said they're not a good side, or they aren't good players. I do belive someone else said Crawley has a mare, so it wasn't just me who thought it.You're always at it though, first sign of us not winning and your toys are out of the pram.

I'm all for being positive, but there's being positive and being careless. Hey, I love seeing an English batsman biffing the ball to all parts, but as the saying goes, play each ball on its merit...poaitive doesn't mean smashing it for six every ball, it can mean rotating the strike every ball, get 4-6 an over plus your boundaries off the bad balls and you're there. It's easy, we could form an SC eleven and beat anyone!Hardly surprising that we're already struggling. It's a very, very difficult wicket to bat on and i'd rather see us at least play with a positive mindset then prod around, waiting to get one with your name on it. I'd genuinely be surprised if we reach 200 on this with a total of 120-150 being the numbers i'd be betting on. As much as you never know with this lot, this is clearly a monumental ask.
His bat almost went for 6 too.At least Stokes has got us over 100…
That’s why I don’t understand why countries don’t produce wickets to suit their attack.So, my prediction of between 120-150 was bang on. I'm not a fan of what Pakistan did here, but they were desperate to break that long run of losses, at the end of the day, both sides had to play on it, the toss was huge but also, we dropped a number of catches. All to play for next week.
