245 for 6 at close of play!!
Boy are we becoming a class team or what??
We managed to bat out the day, 94.2 overs, and only lost 5 wickets in the day, one of which was a shocker by Ashocker.
Bottom line, we are leading by 153 with 4 wickets remaining. Mushfiq is playing out of his skin, and Mahmud is doing well too. If the team can bat out half of the lunch session (extended session again), we can stretch our lead to 200! That will give us a real chance to bowl England out.
After 40 for 4 in the first innings, we have really turned things around and are in with a chance of victory! This team is showing real fighting spirit. I am proud of our boys, whatever happens from here on.
