Feel free to contribute. It's your forum as much as anyone else's.

I've not seen much of it. Usually would start a thread. Until the Test started I was convinced the tour would be cancelled. Don't think the ECB were hopeful.

Just started streaming it while sat waiting for my train to London to watch England vs Greece. Now it's reported, Greece wants a postponement after the death of George Baldock

Stumps Day 4. Pakistan 156 for 6. Still trailing by 115. Just said rain could be about tomorrow

Gary does tend to start a thread on the cricket but he was probably thinking it would end up a bit like this test match https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/ind ... -scorecard
I was hoping we would make 1000 at one point ha ha! Now it looks like weather permitting England are on the verge of a remarkable win! I think I read the last two times a team had posted 500+ runs against us we had gone on to win!!

One for the history books for sure this test match! Pakistan 556/220 - England 823/7d - England win by an innings and 47 runs!!

What a win, one of those freak matches.

Second Test started at 6am. Let's see what craziness happens this time.

England were all out for 291. Pakistan have moved onto 119 for 5 with a lead of 189

PAK 221 all out. ENG require 297 to win.

All going well ENG 11 - 2 after 3.2 overs

Update for CofP 36 - 2

England struggling

Pakistan could be about to break a long losing streak

Not good for England but probably good for cricket and Pakistan to go on to a decider

Pakistan beat England by 152 runs

Pakistan trying to dry out the pitch for the final Test.
