And he was not in Englands test team wow!

:facepalm:
To be fair, it was never our bowlers who let us down, just look at the stats! Broad, Anderson, Monty, Swann were fantastic, not their faults we lost!

True, I agree but Andrerson was not upto his level in test series if I'm not mistaken

I really hope Shoaib Malik gets a few runs today. I've all ways rated this guy, but Pakistani management doesn't feel the same.

Pakistan's problem is that the batting is top heavy. Hafeez, Farhat, Younus and Misbah are the experienced and proper batsmen.

Look at the series against India, England often took early wickets, but India had more firepower in the lower middle order

Johnny, Instinct deal was for county only if I'm not mistaken although it seems he is wearing Instinct pads.

Basket Case, since Malik has been removed as a captain he has become worst, only good innings was in Champions Trophy against India thats it. Now he is past his prime it is chance for a youngster to make way.

Funny how you call Farhat as a ''proper batsman'/

Seriously.. Malik used to be a very good bat and handy spin bowler.. He got out today on a full toss..

where is Mohammad Wasim? is he retired?  Pakistan needs more stable batsman like Younis khan and Misbah.. I feel they have too many aggressive players..

Malik was very good few years ago but now has lost everything really.

Mohammad Wasim is long gone.

One of the reason Misbah had Malik was to have a stable middle order and bonus in spin but unfortunately in both department he let it down.

I still would much prefer the loom of an England line-up that doesn't include Samit Fatel! The bloke is the epitome of average!

Does the grip on Ravi's GM remind anyone of an SS grip?

I think it has been estabilished that Ravi is using an SS bat which he has put GM stickers on. but hasn't changed the grip...

If your going to do something wrong then you might as well do it right! Get unbranded SS bats and put a GM grip on them!
