| 2.3 Akhtar to Davies, out Caught by Umar Akmal!! The change of angle has worked! It was speared into middle and leg from round the wicket, Davies looks to whip that away over mid wicket but fails to keep it low, didn't get it off the middle as well and Umar takes a simple catch this time, after palming one down. Not much of a reaction from the Pakistanis though. Davies c Umar Akmal b Akhtar 9(6) <4s-1> |
26/1 |
| 2.4 Akhtar to Bopara, out Kieswetter Run Out!! 2 in 2, wow, terrific piece of fielding. Bopara strokes it to cover and calls no immediately, Kieswetter was already a few paces down the pitch when he was sent back, Umar Akmal swooned in like a hawk at cover, a clean pick up and throw at the bowler's end and Kieswetter is short by a few inches! Moments of inspiration like these can spur an entire side on, can Pak still make a fist of this? Kieswetter run out (Umar Akmal) 16(10) <4s-2 6s-1> |
26/2 |
| 9.3 Ajmal to Collingwood, out Caught by Hafeez!! Pakistan continue to fight here! Flatter delivery pushed through just outside off, the doosra this time, Collingwood plays for the turn, but it goes straight on, ends up pushing hard at it, gets the outside edge, goes low to Hafeez at first slip, who goes to his left and takes a good catch, ends a good innings from Colly. Collingwood c Hafeez b Ajmal 23(25) <6s-1> |
57/3 |
| 10.6 Afridi to Bopara, out Lbw!! What a comeback from Afridi! Short delivery, but this time quicker on middle, straightens after pitching, Bopara rocks back on the back foot, looks to pull it again, but he misses and gets rapped on the pads, the bowler appeals and the umpire gives it, that would have hit middle and leg. Bopara lbw b Afridi 12(24) <4s-1> |
63/4 |
|
| 1.1 Gul to Kieswetter, SIX!!, terrific stroke! It was full and had the width for Kieswetter to rock back and smack that over cover, he nearly went too far but did well to reach out to it in the end and loft that cleanly! |
12/0 |
| 6.3 Akhtar to Collingwood, SIX!!, what improvisation from Colly, his trademark stroke! Dances down the pitch and picks the length delivery on middle and leg over mid wicket, the ball sailed into the crowd, excellent use of his wrists on that occasion |
42/2 |

| 2.3 Broad to Yousuf, 1 run, catch dropped!! by Morgan at point, that was a relatively simple catch! It was a poor delivery, short and wide outside off, Yousuf cuts and the ball flies to Morgan who puts it down, the ball just burst through his hands |
14/1 |
|
| 1.4 Bresnan to Kamran Akmal, out Caught by Swann! His poor tour continues! He looks to fetch a pull from outside off, doesn't get hold of it as he swings at that, gets the bottom half of the bat and lobs high to Swann who does well to run back from mid wicket and pouch a relatively simple catch. Kamran Akmal c Swann b Bresnan 11(10) <4s-2> |
11/1 |
| 3.2 Bresnan to Yousuf, out Caught by Bopara!! The short delivery has done the trick again, it was a gentle short delivery on the stumps, Yousuf rocks back and pulls it straight to Bopara who settles under the ball and takes a nice and easy catch at deep mid wicket. Pakistan are in trouble yet again! Yousuf c Bopara b Bresnan 4(6) |
18/2 |
| 4.2 Broad to Hasan, out Caught by Davies!! Looks to get across and play a pull towards fine leg but the ball only manages to flick the glove on the way through to the keeper who takes a straightforward catch. Pakistan are in disarray! Hasan c Davies b Broad 3(8) |
20/3 |
| 4.6 Broad to Afridi, out Caught by Morgan!! Brain explosion from Afridi! Banged in short outside off, Afridi looks to play the pull, doesn't get into any position to play that shot, he was cramped for room and ended up lobbing it tamely to Morgan who did well to run to his right and take a neat catch. The bat face turned in his hand as he went through with the stroke! Pakistan's freefall continues. Afridi c Morgan b Broad 2(4) |
22/4 |
| 10.3 Swann to Umar Akmal, out Bowled!! Swanny, you beauty!! Bowls another tossed up delivery after being hit for a six, Umar Akmal comes down the track yet again, looks to smack that over the bowler's head, done in by the sharp turn, the ball turns big from outside off, beats him and finds the off stump, clatter! Umar Akmal b Swann 17(13) <6s-2> |
44/5 |
| 14.1 Swann to Hafeez, out Hafeez Run Out!! Suicidal, absolutely suicidal!! Hafeez walks down the track, opts for the switch hit, fails to connect, the ball hits him on his arm and rolls towards Sidebottom at short fine, Razzaq wants a single, the throw comes in at the bowler's end, Swann whips the bails as he collects the ball in a flash, Hafeez is way short of the crease, third umpire has an easy decision to make! Hafeez run out (Sidebottom/Swann) 14(32) <4s-1> |
55/6 |
| 14.3 Swann to Alam, out Caught by Davies!! half-tracker, the ball pitches on middle and turns away, Alam goes on the backfoot and looks to cut, gets a feather edge to the keeper, as simple as it can get!! Alam c Davies b Swann 0(1) |
56/7 |
| 17.4 Sidebottom to Razzaq, out Caught by Yardy!! Razzaq departs, he fails to make any impact, it was banged in short, he looks for the pull, gets a top edge, Yardy comes running towards the keeper from short third man as the ball balloons up in the air, calls for it and takes a simple catch!
Razzaq c Yardy b Sidebottom 11(20) <4s-1> |
85/8 |
| 17.5 Sidebottom to Gul, out Caught by Bopara!! The demon ball again, banged in short, Gul looks to pull, he wanted to send that out of the park, fails to get the distance as he top edges it, Bopara comes running in from deep square leg, slides forward and takes an extremely good catch just inches off the ground, the English bowlers are all over the Pakistanis at the moment! Gul c Bopara b Sidebottom 16(13) <4s-1 6s-1> |
85/9 |
| 18.4 Bresnan to Akhtar, out Bowled!! Cleans him up in style, Akhtar made room even before Bresnan delivered the ball, Bresnan changes his line and length, goes for a yorker, it ended up hitting the middle stump on the full, that's the end of the Pakistan story, it's been all too easy for the English! Akhtar b Bresnan 4(4) <4s-1> |
89/10 |
|
| 8.4 Swann to Umar Akmal, SIX!!, splendid hit! His eyes lit up when he saw the flight, got to the pitch of the ball in a flash and lofted it high and handsome over the bowler's head, the ball sailed into the crowd |
34/4 |
| 10.2 Swann to Umar Akmal, SIX!!, as clean as a whistle!! tossed up on the stumps, Umar Akmal dances down the track and lofts him over long on, gets the distance, sails over the ropes! |
44/4 |
| 16.2 Broad to Gul, SIX!!, top shot!! short again, not much bounce on that one, Gul moves across and swings at it, gets it over the ropes behind square on the on side, power written all over it! |
77/7 |
