And I am not talking about Ian Belly.

We had a long tail only a few games ago. Now all of a sudden the belly of the side is opened up on about 5 wickets down.

Think I'd hate being round your house unless it is Christmas or your birthday. ;)

25.

Well yes, know that. Was just basing it on England's confidence and very good form. Based just on this on game. Getting closer now, as it is less than a 100 to win, but I still think Pakistan have the edge. One wicket will break it I think.

They do, but Yasir's bowling apart, Pakistan have been a little wayward. England haven't helped their chances at all with some poor shot choices. I wouldn't say Pakistan were red hot favourites before England commenced their second innings. Would say it was slight favourites. England still...

That's it I think. 4 down now. Pakistan now red hot favourites

He's such a good player. No need for that and you would have thought he would be really mindful after the first innings. If Root had stayed in for another 10-15 overs it would have increased England's chances immeasurably.

Going to happen for sure. Awaiting the consumer Pokemon backlash very soon.

The more you look at that Root dismissal, the worse it looks. Talk about hook, line and sinker.

What was Joe Root doing? I know we are ticking along quite nicely now, but I get the feeling that one more wicket and it will be a collapse. Cross my fingers I'm wrong.

Edited it accordingly. Now get the feeling an England pack of cards scenario will unfold. All out before we reach three figures? :(

Yep, could well be. Spence looked pretty nifty I thought.

Snooker must be difficult. As a spectator you have to keep quiet and still for very long periods.

283 to win. Perfect! I fancy England here. No rash Root first innings style shots though please. Just need to see out Yasir. They have all but two full days.

Can England do it? Really think we need to chase less than 300. 282 ahead as we speak and just the one wicket remaining. We don't want this tail to wag.

I do like cricket, but find there can be great chunks of dullness in between the exciting bits.

County? Test? Just seem to see a lot of people looking bored and either asleep, disinterested, chatting, reading a book etc.

Yeah, accept that. That does sound more exciting than just standing by a hole for several hours watching people taking golf shots and not having too much idea where the ball has landed.

Fair point. Yep, some specialise in particular fields (employment law, criminal, domestic divorce etc).
