England in Dubai vs Pakistan...Cricket.

[Gargamel]

Right, magic over from Swann.

65/3

[Gargamel]

Tempted to call this one early. BUt I guess you never know.

With KP in prime form and looks like there won't be any scoreboard pressure - all over red rover.

[Gargamel]

Terrific from KP , c'mon England

Last ball for a six ! - great knock in the context of the steady tumble at the other end...

[Gargamel]

Awesome, well played all round really, can't fault the Pakistan team, great commitment.

Nice to see England trouncing them in the final match

Que?

Carling Cup in the bag - check
England dicked at Twickers - check
Spuds dicked by the goons - check

Missed the biggest result HR , forest winning away at Birmingham ......

[Gargamel]

Jaya however is in ominous form, he can't half hit it...

Still second new ball should clean them up.

[Gargamel]

Great ball there from the best bowler in world cricket.

Jimmy A - 3/27 on basically a flat track - fantastic bowling. Makes Steyn look like a one trick pony.....

Strauss moves to 110 catches and in the top 5 I think on the Outfielding list.

Something Panesar will struggle to achieve I think

[Gargamel]

Come on Monty, bat for the draw...... only three and a half days to see it out....

[Gargamel]

Struggling to get even a slight semi on for this series. Not only Pakistan are probably my least favourite test opposition (though I love them in the one dayers) but the pitches and the whole set up just sucks and indeed blows too.

389/4 - As ever with these matches for four days every one is calling a draw, and then on day five something resembling cricket breaks out.

[Gargamel]

Good to see our specialist stroke player cracking along with 1 run from 27 balls.

Not all bad news though, can't remember the last time our opening pair posted 100 - 0, so that is progress.

Insomniacs everywhere are celebrating a cure...

[Gargamel]

I miss Banger, just a top quality lad.

Not bad company for Moeen, but until he has opened in Durham in May, then I am reserving judgement...

Errrrr... look 4 posts up bro

Repost record that, must be ?

Anyway - Well played Skip, the book says 100, and that is well played on any pitch, against any attack in my mind.

How many Centuries for Chef now ? is it 30 yet.
