come on boys get behind your fellow countrymen!!!! 136

Good on Broad to get there...though why Riaz came on to bowl, I just don't know.

[petehosk]

Me neither...and the Pakistan bowling is pretty high standard, sometimes brilliant. Their batting a bit hit and miss, but sometimes very good. But their fielding...........

amir was tired after 6 tests in 8 weeks?

At Lord's today. What an innings by Trott and Broad. Did anyone notice the standing ovation Broad got once he got his 1st ton? Never heard anything as loud and long!!

Good knock by the boys, Glad to be mates with broadys cousins

[roco]

Great that different people are getting runs at different times eg Morgans ton kp 80 cook Ton and this game but would be great if two or three could combine more often but at least broady's dad can't hold it over him that at least he has scored a test hundred for England any more lol

blowers has just referred to a pak player as 'umar actimel' - the old goat really seems to be losing grasp of what's going on...

[petehosk]

Blowers is a legent though!
And when he strays off and loses his grip, it's even funnier! 

[petehosk]

Broad and Anderson have both struck early 9 for 2!
But now Pakistan have their two best batsmen in.....Butt and MoYo!
Talking about putting the pressure on the captain and the veteran! But am seriously impressed with MoYo!
And still think that Younis Khan also being shipped in to strengthen the batting would have been a decent shout!

[petehosk]

Crumbs - Broad is absolutely on fire!!
Not only hitting 169 with the bat, but now getting the very classy dangerman MoYo for a duck!
Jeez - will be interesting to see if they manage to make a stand without him!

[petehosk]

Swanny and Finn are chipping in too!
This is looking very familiar, but with England an upper order batsman stayed in to steady the ship.
The question is, will Pakistan find a couple of batsmen to help avoid the follow on? 
Crumbs....with yesterday and today, who said that Test cricket's not as entertaining these days!!??

[mars]

Yes, it was a great display of how entertaining Test Cricket can be!

As for Pakistan, can't see them avoiding the follow-on, no chance!

[petehosk]

I'm with you there!
If they do avoid the follow on, then good on 'em!
It'll be a tough task but Broad showed that you can bat if you stay patient and get in first! Mind you,m Broad was dropped and rode his luck on a few occasions! 

The batsmen seem to be having problems watching the ball out of Finn's hand! May have something to do with him being extra tall!? At this rate, they'll need to start having taller side screens!!

I was in the middle of typing the fact that Akmal has a great opportunity to dig them out of the doodoo, when half way through the sentence, he goes and gets out!

Pakistan all out now, Follow on Enforced, They are a shocking team at the moment when it does not go their way.
