I lost it at Broad hitting it out of the middle then wondering if he had a review left, he's gone beyond a parody of himself.

Didn't realise CBF's own Pakistani 'ultra' can have his opinion sway that quickly  :D

There was a reason why I used the term " I am expecting", instead of saying "I am predicting". :)

Man, I hope Yasir runs onto the field and starts making the crying gesture to Hales.

No idea about who will replace Hales but I'll put Hameed's name in there even though I've never seen him play.

Cook
Hameed
Root
Ballance (Although my heart says Bell)
Bairstow (wk)
Stokes
Moeen
Woakes
Rashid
Broad
Anderson

Other possibility is to take the gloves off Bairstow

Chef
Hameed
Root
Bairstow
Moeen
Stokes
Buttler (wk)
Woakes
Rashid
Broad
Anderson

A few batsmen being shown up as most sensible people already knew they weren't upto it. Sadly people still defend white ball players

Ok will say it one last time - superb series. In 3 out of 4 games, the outcome was uncertain till the very end. Wish there was a 5th test!

5th TEST would've reduced the beauty of this series.

Can't get any better than this.

Great play Pakistan - Great Play England. 'Cricket' is the winner at the end!

2-2 is fair. Pakistan are away and played a lot better on flat decks in London. We had the advantage on moving wickets-as we usually do. When it's flat we need something extra in the bowling or batsmen to go big.

But let's not blame our bowlers yet again. We need to sort out our batting. Way too much on root and cook, thank fully YJB has kept up his form.

I think myself England will make some changes. It's prob too late for bell and nick Compton (131 for middx today) which I think is a shame.

Looking to the middle order and opening position is not easy. Bell Drummond, Lyth,Robson prob in with a shout...

But the series has been great.prob one for the purists of which I am one  :)

As a side note haven't Pakistan represented themselves well on and off the field, unlike a few England players who have chucked the toys out of the prams. Great effort
