TDK's International Test Cricket Update's

[jackpot jim]

Pakistan 3/175, chasing 355.
Imam 51*
Shakeel 45*
Both looking comfortable, can Pakistan do it?

Imam out for 60 just before stumps.

4/192 Eng back into favorites now.

Campbell Kellaway has hit a ton against South Africa

Was he the other bat along with Wyllie Teague who dominated the under 19 World Cup.

Reading about him yes, he was Australia's second highest run scorer in this year's Under 19 WC, made 239 runs @47.8

From what i saw watching the WC he looks a very good prospect. Like Teague he looked a class above that level of cricket, hopefully that transitions into senior cricket.

Pakistan need 75 to win with 5 wickets in hand

[Brodlach]

Wicket!

64 to go

A bullshit decision gives England another. Caught behind but I think there is enough vision to give that not it.

3rd umpire is Joel Wilson of Ashes infamy

[mal]

This game can go either way, an England win on day 4 or an England win on day 5.
McCullum's MAuLer's have now become my 2nd fav Test cricket team.

Stokes blokes do it again
Cant believe Stokes gave the 2nd new ball to Root before Jimmy

[Jim05]

I’d be checking Joel Wilson’s bank account. He was in on it

[batmanbegins]

Heck of a series win. All the pacers were tremendous, the balls bowled to get the top 3 were outstanding.

If the soft signal was Not Out the decision would have stayed Not Out surely.

With the soft signal being out it was always gonna be difficult to overturn although i believe there was 1 frame that distinctly showed the ball touching the ground. Wilson kept asking the video operator to repeatedly show that particular frame and i'm sure he thought the ball was PROBABLY touching the ground but didn't have the courage to overturn the decision as he was heard to repeatedly say "I think he has his fingers under the ball".
It was a tough one. I wanted Pakistan to win so probably a bit biased.

I think in these situations when the umpires arnt sure , they should just refer the decision upstairs and not give a soft signal at all. After all whats the point of giving a soft signal of out when they had doubt in the 1st place as they obviously had doubt as they conferred with each other.

Pakistan v England third test starts today, England have already named their team-
Crawley, Duckett, Pope, Root, Brook, Stokes, Foakes, Ahmed, Robinson, Wood, Leach.

18 year old Rehan Ahmed will make his debut, he will be England's youngest debutant in test cricket.

In other news, Kane Williamson stepped down as NZ test captain, Tim Southee was named their new skipper.

I would have thought Latham would have got it. Southee is 34

[The Dark Knight]

I would have thought Latham would have got it. Southee is 34

Alot of cricket media is saying the same thing, Latham is still the VC and is 30.

[DOC]

Bangers 0/101 still need another 412.

[DOC]

Pakistan win the toss and bat. England open with Leach!

[Brodlach]

Tea Pakistan 5/204
