England v Pakistan Test Series ** Spoilers**

Well FFS :mad:
I'm not happy. Went to see this match at Lords. Got there at 10.30. Played the waiting game. Watched 12.3 overs of the England players leaving the ball. Played the waiting game again. Then decided to leave at 5.

And what do I get for my troubles? A 50% refund :rolleyes:
Thank god I only paid £5 per ticket
 
So Much of our batting out of form at the same time, looks like England 20 years ago. Still , high quality bowling again from PAK, good luck to them tbh.
 
At lunch a bit of a recovery and England are 97-5 (36 overs):

Strauss b Asif 13
Cook c K Akmal b Amir 10
Trott not out 41
Pietersen c K Akmal b Amir 0
Collingwood lbw b Amir 0
Morgan c Hameed b Amir 0
Prior not out 21
Extras 12

Amir 4-29.
 
What is the general opinion on making batting changes? I think this policy of sticking with a team for unity purposes is a lot of nonsense. I don't see why they don't pick people out of the counties who are in great nick and give the regulars chance after chance.
 
Think the situation with Pieterson is problematic. We can't just keep letting him fail innings after innings like this. But it would be a massive boost to the Aussies before the start of the series if he got dropped. Just don't see how he's going to get any genuine time in at the crease between now and the Ashes.

At the moment Bell is going to walk back into the side, probably at the expense of Morgan. Apart from that I don't see them messing around with the current lineup, they'll just hope and pray it comes good somehow.

One thing going for us down under, AUS ain't got anything the quality of Amir atm.
