But we know from the past..England can lose their top 4 quickly...then Pakistan are in the game... Now the challenge is on....Can the English Batsman prove their metal..after losing 2 quick wickets...!!

Given we need to break a Wolrd Cup record to beat their total I think it's pretty safe to say they are already in the game.

Chiltern Fox Posted 3 June 2019 Posted 3 June 2019 Need a big one from root or Morgan. Don't let the pak bowlers bully you.
Izzy Posted 3 June 2019 Posted 3 June 2019 Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis in the commentary box. What fantastic bowlers they both were.
Bobby Hundreds Posted 3 June 2019 Posted 3 June 2019 We are terrible against Pakistan in actual tournaments.
StanSP Posted 3 June 2019 Author Posted 3 June 2019 Root and Buttler now need to stay for at least the next 15-20 overs. Huge ask for them both. Commentators made a point of Root sometimes wanting to stick with how quick the likes of Buttler/Stokes pile on runs and aggressively play. Interesting to see how this partnership turns out. If Pakistan get either of them out soon after getting Stokes out it's a big chance to see the victory out.
Chiltern Fox Posted 3 June 2019 Posted 3 June 2019 If we are to win this, root needs to carry his bat.
TheSomersetFox Posted 3 June 2019 Posted 3 June 2019 Does anyone know where I could find a stream of this?
ealingfox Posted 3 June 2019 Posted 3 June 2019 Why do they need 2 drinks breaks ffs. Get on with it.

How often in Test matches do we see an extra 30 minutes and still some of the 90 overs not bowled? Then you've got the 12th man bringing on gloves, bats, drinks, instructions etc after every couple of overs or so.
StanSP Posted 3 June 2019 Author Posted 3 June 2019 Ooh that could be game changing. Root knows it too.
StanSP Posted 3 June 2019 Author Posted 3 June 2019 Yep. Certainly the most even encounter of the tournament so far. Makes for good watching. Lots of twists and turns especially in this 2nd innings.
