Cricket: International Discussion Thread

I'll almost feel sorry for the poms when they lose this. They really made a game out of this but pakistan are cruising now.

I still think bad light may have the final say. Wouldn't surprise if whichever team is losing as the end gets closer, will start to pull out the delay tactics.
 
Ok, may be rethinking my previous comment. England with two quick strikes.

Unbelievable win. I haven't seen a game like this before.
 
I will eat my hat. I thought this game was absolutely going to end up in a drawer. Excellent it came out with a result although I'd have preferred Pakistan to have won.

Well to be fair to you, the evidence of the first four days suggested this was heading to a tame draw. The wicket suddenly woke up on the final morning. Reverse swing was prodigious!

That wicket changed a lot on day 5. Almost unplayable at some point. Bad luck for Pakistan really.
