Why can we not play spin for toffee

I'd give Bopara a game, bu he is crap.

The rest of the need to get (No Swearing Please) forwards to the spinners, just how many lbw's have there been compared to bat pad catches!Especially if they can't read Ajmal!

For a team trying to save a test match that really was a poor shot by Broad

How much did that bowl to broad come back in.

Reminiscent of Swann to Ponting in the ashes.

They weren't trying to save it, they were trying to win it...

At 7/68 I'd call it saving a test match

Why are we playing back nearly all the dismissals I've seen from the spinners are off back foot get bloody forward you turds

Time to swing and see how close we can get

Can't blame broad he has to at least try to attack as other bats have blocked and gone

My point exactly!
At least it wasn't Ajmal who caused all the damage this innings round.

I didn't say playing for a draw I said saving a test match. You don't think If Broad used his brain he could have batted long enough for another 72 runs?

Stunning win for Pakistan. Won the series.

Credit where credit is due! Rehman and Ajmal bowled beautifully in tandem. After all that's happened to Pakistan over the last few years, they deserve this. Congrats.

Like Bob Willis just said 'every team would struggle against this bowling line up in these conditions.'

No as scratching around looking to survive is what got others out so prefer to see him play his game as came off in first innings so could've again
