A shame for Vincey. Once again he gets in, but can't push on for that elusive 50. He played a lot tighter this innings, but will be disappointed with that dismissal. Sohail Khan has been Pakistan's best bowler this morning. An inspired change to bring him into the side in place of Wahab Riaz.

A cacophony of poor shots has sent England reeling. Sohail very much deserving of his four wickets. He has bowled a very tight line. As you mentioned above, ketch, he has also worked in conjunction with Misbah in bowling to a plan. Misbah's bold decision to bowl first looking pretty good so far.

Sohail has bowled a very tight line, but to be honest, the majority of the dismissals have all been soft and largely self-inflicted. It looks a good pitch to bat on and there has been almost no swing on offer.

I know Trini is our resident Photoshop expert, but couldn't resist knocking this one up. Excuse the poor quality.



Prior to today, Khan had a bowling average of a mere 245 and a strike-rate of 332. England have certainly felt the wrath of Khan so far.

Khan videos were not available to Ottis for reviews ??

OR the Batting Coach : appear Khan's wrath was the surprise factor

"we nevah saw this chap b4"  :-\  Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow.

England 184/5 at lunch. Pakistan keep chipping away, with help from England's batsman with some loose shots. Ballance 49*. Moeen hasn't looked all that comfortable, but has grafted away for 15.

Tea : Moeen was told NOT to go after the spin ?  :-\

A nip-and-tuck session, both sides needing a bit of work, although Pakistan

will probably prefer what they see in the mirror.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches. This is not about our players, administrators, or any individual; it is an entire system that is failing, and together, all of us must fix it now. This cannot continue into another series; we must not allow it to.(15.07.2025, 14:52)(14:52)0
