Tongue with three wickets.

I'm sure there is a pun in there somewhere?

Tongue sticks out with those figures.


Best I could do.

It's a very demoralised Pakistan. With no help from the PCB, who have done their best to undermine the team.

This new pacer sounds like he could be a handful

There's something reassuringly classical about Emilio Gay's batting. Scores now level. Gay on 52*. 133-3

Great start to the day

Superb first ball to be fair

Looks all done after that early scare. Root and Cox steadied the ship.

Root getting away with dragging on was pivotal. And some of Pakistan's fielding has been shocking at times.

Shame that there wasn't more of a target to defend, but at least there was one.

Good series win against a poor Pakistan team in conditions favouring English seamers. They almost blew it with some poor bowling/captaincy/coaching yesterday as they did against NZ at the oval. Positives were Cox who looks solid, almost Collingwood-esque and Brook who looked more in the moment. Robinson did well of course but not sure about him under pressure or on flat strips.
