Sounds like Dead man walking

Fat man playing

Lol what a clutch knock by Rizwan... has adapted to the pitch beautifully

[ShoonyaSifar]

After the 1st T20, Pakistani players celebrated as if they had won the T20 WC. England has nicely punctured that hot air balloon since then. All it has taken is for Buttler, Jordan and Adil Rashid to come back to the team.

They might still win this one 

[QuarantineTormentino]

I’d say this match is 60-40 in Paks favour

Rizwan may not be better than Pant but hes definitely better than Barbie

[Frustrated]

Pitch is offering decent amount of turn.  Not going to be easy if Poyz spinners bowl in right areas.

But the pitch heavily favours spinners so Pak hold an edge

Rarely do we see such spinning wickets in eng.

They may but looking unlikely at this stage. Pakistan will need 175-180 to feel slightly safe

Ban these damn vuvuzellas

I think 170 is enough.  As there is so much turn on offer.  Shadab might pick few wickets. Let's C

Poyz 154/6.       I think they are short of 15 to 20 runs on this wicket.  

[Swag]

Competitive total I would say.

Roy and Bairstow need to play with controlled aggression rather than all out attack.

England momentum was derailed by Morgans 15 off 16 and Gregory s timid batting

it depends on the weather there

 

CT 2013 all matches were spin friendly pitches

Yeah. He has been the find of this series for England. A monster hitter.
