Eyes on the close up were enough, didn't need hotspot or the snickometer.

Six down, all over bar the shouting

[Gargamel]

/6. must be favourites now...30 overs left. Come on chaps, mop them up.

[FourWheelDrift]

The real tail end now.

[FourWheelDrift]

What was the stat about no team batting first and over 100 runs behind not winning test there?

It wasn't no team, just only happens 3% of the time.

Great bowling!

In the bag now. Fantastic performance.

[spikeyhead]

Seven!!!!!!!

[FiF]

Nothing can go wrong from here

/spikeyhead

9 down btw, have we got to the tail yet?

[FiF]

What have I done, 20 off the last two overs? Stop trying to bounce them out, it's numbers 10 + 11 ffs.

[Smollet]

It might well come down to the new ball. 4 overs of that.

[hornetrider]

14 overs left in the day... they can't, can they? They won't, surely?

[Black can man]

Getting edgy ! The Pakistani tail is hanging on in there.


England will get 3 overs with the new ball .


Test Match Cricket still rules.

[Baron Greenback]

Yessss!

[FourWheelDrift]

That's the way to do it.

[Black can man]

[hornetrider]

Phew!

[Black can man]

A thoroughly, thoroughly professional performance from a domineering England team.

We are looking so, so good.

[Smollet]

Great test and it swung to and fro. Also went to 5 days which is unusual these days

That's the way it should be too, The ECB Must be over the moon to get 5 days of paying customers as well as Sky sports.
