It's only a 2 day match, may as well give someone else a go. ^^
Still, he better get that test hundred!

True, they were saying they wanted everyone to get a bat in these two warm-up matches. We'll put that wicket down to good captaincy.

I'm glad they're being challenged - means less likelihood of complacency. Remember when Cook and Carberry scored 150s prior to the 2013-14 Ashes? Yes...

How many bowlers from this Pakistan attack are we expecting to see in the Test matches?

It would be good if Bairstow could score a few runs today.

MK: Junaid, maybe? Adill as an outside bet? Otherwise would have thought they'd stick to Wahab, Irfan, Yasir, and one other spinner.

Roooooooooooooot gets yet another 50. Let's hope his form continues!

Also, can we please have a round of applause for Bairstow's strike rate.

Under 20. Good stuff.
Rooty surely has a hundred on the cards (don't really care if I jinx him for this match). That's why he should be up as our third rank!

I don't think Irfan will play. I think Junaid or Imran Khan will be the second seamer, and Babar the second spinner.

I forgot Babar's name in the spur of the moment, but yes, they seem to like him.
Well batted Young Jonny!

Stumps: Not a bad day that. Nice to see a few batsmen pass 50. Great confidence boost for Rashid you'd think too.

I didn't even realise there was a thread for this game or even that there was a game. I suppose I could be forgiven for A. Don't really care if England win or lose B. I'm not in England.
Anyways, good day indeed. Moe as opener, good luck England. He should replace Stokes in No.6 position and let Hales open with Cooky and have Rashid in Moe's usual place.

It's a tour match, not even first-class. You're very much forgiven.
Belly underperforms again. James Taylor, seize the day!
