Afridi averaged 36.5 with 5 hundreds and there isn't a bigger slogger than him
Someone with his calibre of bowling can get away with slogging

From the bits that I can catch this sounds like excellent cricket from England. Was really worried at 2 down that this would be one of those England innings where every batsman digs themselves in to a hole then gives their wicket away but it sounds excellent counter attacking stuff from these two.

Got to give praise to the ground staff for this wicket too, no matter the reasons behind it but when the bowler has a slight edge you always get more interesting cricket.

Come on man, if that had been a Saffer you'd have described the innings as swashbuckling.

He would have, but seeing as his "watched" has gone from his name, he's turning back into the troll he is to try and make people bite.

It's a shame the admin haven't got the balls to jettison him permanently(he'd just sign back up again though)

It's ok by me as if someone has so little going on they get their kicks from trolling on a forum I feel for them
