That is true Kash, I had given this one up after 5 overs and yet somehow your boys blew it, and strangely enough you had loads of wickets in hand. Amazed we won it mate, but like every other single game in the UAE, this one was thrilling. Wow I have enjoyed watching Pakistan v England these past couple of months.

Hope he still plays like a donkey. He didn't even have plus 100 strike rate.

that's true kash. mind you Hafeez had 100% strike rate though.

Haha Hope Hafeez was consistent in getting out in the first over for sure.

Maski us Pak fans never celerbrate early when chasing cos they don't call us Panikstan for no reason

Kash and how is your mate Afridi?

Afridi probably using his Misbah poster for other use in the lavatory.

I'm sorry this cricket episode v Pakistan has ended it's been fun with you guys.Hope for your support v Sri Lanka.

You will get mine hopefor :p When does that series start mate? What kind of matches will we be playing against them?

It has indeed Hope and yes look forward to following England against Sri Lankans. When's Squad announced?

Maksi 2 tests only starting 26th March. Two 3 day warm ups.

kash tomorrow morning. Hopefully without Morgan.

Are we playing them at their place hopefor?

Yes Maksi, at Galle and Columbo.

The talk this morning was Bairstow will go but i think Samit will be more useful.

I think Maksi's Samit has a good chance but as third spinner, not sure about Bairstow, that would mean 7 batsmen in the squad as Bopara is pretty certain.

So, everything went according to plan, KP nearly blew it with a pretty selfish innings (however that six was crucial). Then Zia pulverised us with a brutal and dangerous knock, yes his strike rate wasn't great, but Pak were in control of the match.

Once Zia was out, like I said it was all over. Swann and Dernbach bowled brilliantly and Patel was my man of the match.

Pakistan played well in tests, won the main event, but England fought back well, neither team is the finished article, but gotta say I really enjoyed all the Pak-Eng match threads.

Remember there should be another cracker tonight, the countdown has started (again ). 100 runs to go, he should get it this time.

Got my alarm clock ready for the game. India are out and have no pressure which means Sachin will score some runs.

Kash, the thread has been started and the countdown has begun.

We're heading for Venus...

Pakistan has joined chokers club, which was held exclusively by SouthAfrica for so many years.

Congrats to England for winning in 2 formats against us.IMO, they will emerge victorious against India and Srilanka later this year.

Surprise to read few post ridiculing umpiring decision.I think it was a brilliant decision and had there been a DRS, umpire's decision would have been vindicated.
Unlucky not to see Misbah's last innings,surely it will be rated alongsidehis epic innings against India in 2011 WC.
