Pakistan standing up pretty good against England. Pakistani bowlers did a good job by making the whole English team out at just 184 runs, specially Mohammad Abbas, who took 4 wickets in the first innings.

It's a real test of Pakistani batsmen now, batting at Lord's against England ain't an easy job. Currently 22 for 1, with Azhar Ali and Haris Sohail on the crease.

Pakistan finished the day with 50/1 and i can say that Pakistan are right on top of this match currently and take can take an advantage tomorrow..Even if they score close to 300 they will get a lead of more than 100 runs which will make it very difficult for England.

Last 5 English wickets fell for just 19 runs!

Score close to 300? That's probably not going to happen. This wicket is ridiculously unplayable. I'm expecting the score of like 225 by them (the Pakistan side) in their first batting innings and that will provide them a lead of around 50 runs.

Pakistan have performed well so far as most of us didn't give them much chance in this test series however the wicket has a lot to do with it as like you said its unpredictable playing on this wicket so it makes it tough for both teams. I also can't see Pakistan getting a big lead in the 1st innings but even a 50 run lead is good on this wicket. At least we are seeing a good contest and not a one sided match.

I didn't expect this sort of performance on a pitch like of Lord's from Pakistan at all. They've an inexperienced team with no Misbah-ul-Haq or Younus Khan this time, while English team is an extremely experienced one right now. It's amazing to see them performing this well against England in England, however, I'd not be surprised if the second day doesn't go in their favor. Pakistan is incredibly unpredictable, as Richie Benaud said during Champions Trophy regarding their unpredictability; " one minute down, next minute up!". So any day on which they're down can possibly make a big difference in the 5-day match.

True as I didn't expect this from Pakistan either like most others however when there is a pitch that plays like it has been playing it does give the team with less experience a chance to fight and try and get something out of this match which Pakistan have been doing. But like you said it will be interesting to see if they can keep this up for the entire 5 days of the match. If they can then this could help them a lot leading into the next test matches.

Now we have Play offs and first match is going to played between CSK vs SRH for me its CSK going to qualify for Finals and then in second match KKR is going to win for playing against SRH which is very tight game as both have potential for win and reaching in final now waiting for comments from other members about this

As I already posted few days back now we have all completed for big final CSK vs SRH on Sunday its could be very interested final hopefully this time SRH will fight hard for winning their second title even CSK is very strong but still this can happen
In First Test Pakistan is on driving seat but England bowlers done good at the end of day and now lets see what is response from English Batsmen in second inning as they are going to play with trailing by 160+ runs

So far, the match is undoubtedly in Pakistan's favor. The captain, Sarfaraz Ahmed, disappointed in batting, but other than him, every batsman wonderfully played the innings. So far, it's 350 for 8 for Pakistan. With two wickets still in hand, Pakistan might just cross 400 runs overall and give out a lead of more than 200 runs. However, the remaining runs are largely depending on whether Babar Azam (who got retired hurt today) will be able to play tomorrow or not. If he, along with Mohammad Amir, can play for a few more hours tomorrow, 400 total for the innings ain't impossible.

It is a real jolt for the cricketing world as one of the most entertaining batsman and fielder and this will be huge loss for the SA as to find some one like him is really the toughest task. Also before the World cup it has happened to SA will be really shaken with it.

The cricketing world is just shocked to hear this news, he is always in prime form and i consider him as the best player in all the formats and it is really premature to retire all of a sudden, he should have waited till the next world cup to make a decision on his career, i really wish he would reconsider his decisions as he is still at his peak form.

Yes it was another great day for Pakistan taking a 166 run lead heading into day 3. It will be interesting to see if Babar Azam can come back on day 3 and get some extra runs on the board because if Pakistan can get a 200 run lead then I think they will go onto win this test match as England will most likely try and play for the draw which is never easy on a pitch like this one.

As I already posted few days back now we have all completed for big final CSK vs SRH on Sunday its could be very interested final hopefully this time SRH will fight hard for winning their second title even CSK is very strong but still this can happen

Yes, finally reached the top two teams to final match. Even though CSK is a strong team but somehow I'm feeling that SRH may give them surprise and win this final match. The best part with SHR team is bowling and good in defending any total and Dhoni is a good finisher so we need to see who will outplay this match. I'm expecting if CSK bat first then we can see a lot of runs on the board to put pressure on SRH.

Same with me broo i am also thinking that SRH will put a surprise this time around and may this years IPL,now the momentum is with them as well and they will feel much confident now after the win against KKR,so i am backing SRH to win the finals...lets see what happens

Sunrisers Hyderabad have an extremely strong bowling line up. Although they went through a bad streak losing a few matches, you must note that they did manage to top the league table. Plus they have beaten Kolkatta at Eden Gardens to come to the finals. Chennai Super Kings are a strong team, no doubt, but they will be challenged by SRH.

The performance of Rashid Khan is the main difference as he is the main player to take this team to a new level as he was able to provide consistent performance even with low scores on the board, i think they need to use his service as a batsmen often rather than keep him wait.

But he is the best bowler so his main objective is to get as many as wickets in those four overs. Yes, in last match he has proven that he can also bet well and that will be an advantage to the SHR team particularly in today's final match because Dhoni team is very strong in batting and if they bat first then SHR may need to chase huge runs. SHR has reached final only due to this guy performance in the last match.

Pakistan have comprehensively won their match against England by 9 wickets. This is even more surprising considering that Pakistan were in trouble even in the match against Ireland. Pakistan essentially won the match in the first 2 sessions when they demolished England's batting line up. They just pressed home the advantage in subsequent sessions.

This is really surprising result for me as I was not sure about Pakistan to win here but they done great job with the help of good bowling specially by Muhammad Abbas he rock in these last two tests with 17 wickets batting is still concern but now young boys doing good job

This was a great win for Pakistan as no one expected them to perform like they have in this test match after the performance against Ireland. Like I mentioned in my previous posts when the pitch plays like it did, it gives average teams the chance to play well which Pakistan were able to do from day 1 and continue on with that form and beat England. This will give them a lot of confidence going into the second test match.

Chennai Super Kings have emerged as the champions of the IPL, beating Sunrisers Hyderabad in the finals. With this result, Chennai have beaten Hyderabad 4 times in this IPL - twice in the league matches, once in the qualifiers and once again in the finals. Watson scored a brilliant century in the finals to take CSK home.

Thanks, now that this IPL is over, your analysis will help us next year.

Victory of Chennai Super Kings shows that how important it is to have a good leadership to win matches. In case of other sports like Football, it is very less important.
