Poor start of a long Tour. Where is the discipline ? Things can go downhill very quickly

Ball from ball house ! WoW  8)

Boult to Sarfraz : that is some yorker and off stump has been uprooted with

leg and middle still standing with the bail on top. 

The ball slanted across the right-hander from over the wicket before

swinging back in, it then seemed to seam away off the pitch very late,

beating the outside edge of the bat as Sarfraz brought it across the line,

and cannon into off stump. Sensational ball.

It was not quite a yorker, it pitched just enough in front of him to seam away!!!

That was a peach of a delivery from Boult to dismiss Sarfraz. For those that haven't had a chance to see it, I thoroughly recommend checking it out if you can.

Sohail Khan isn't going to be left wondering. Putting wood to leather late last night and early this morning. If the tail can hang around with Asad Shafiq for 15+ overs, Pakistan could get enough runs on the board to at least give their bowlers something to defend.

152 - 7 after 70 overs

Current partnership  47 runs, 7.4 overs, RR: 6.13

(Asad Shafiq 5, Sohail Khan 37 (5x4 1x6))

Latham and Raval out in the middle with 105 runs required to win the 1st ANZ Test. Amir & Sohail Khan will start with the ball

12 without loss
