Wahab bhaio chole gelo, kew kotha rakhe na

[One World]

Just whack and cheer,

poor Shoaib Malik, totally wasted lower down this order while he is more of a grafter.

[aklemalp]

Well well, Pakistan just set England a world record score to chase

[One World]

Finishes well at 348/8

If new inclusions SHadab/Ameer do not get too hot for ENgland it will be another easy chase for them.

Let's see if England can repeat what they have done so many times prior to the WC, when it really matters.

[Miraz]

Poor bowing and fielding effort from England. They will have a tough time to chase this down.

[One World]

No wicket for expensive Adel, now he will score a paltry 8 or something.

A total selection blunder for England.

[Jadukor]

So complacent! They deserve to lose this game. Pakistan is so unpredictable. 100 in one game and 350 in the next. WTH.

Roy and Bairstow need a 100 run partnership,

Butler and Root need to make sure they finish it off or at least cross 290 before leaving crease.

Moeen Ali must take it to finish, cannot let going down to Adel boy to finish.

[Max100]

it will be tough for england today

pakistan is famous for their unpredictable nature. i wont be surprised if they become champion. they still need to figure out their best combination.

[Jadukor]

The pitch looks quite dry. Why on earth did they choose to bowl with a batting lineup as good as theirs. If Moeen is effective then the Pak spinners will be even more effective. The key is if pak can stop being horrible fielders and actually hold on to their catches.

[Tigers_eye]

Eng mows this down in 47th to 49th over. They have the firepower. If only Bairstow gets going and Roy keeping pace it would be over when Butler comes in. That is how I see the script. I would be happy if Pak wins though. The Tourney would be wide open then.

[Jadukor]

If Pak look to be aggressive and take wickets they will win this. If their bolod captain goes defensive then it will be tough. They should open with a spinner against Bairstow.

[aklemalp]

Kumar, you're starting to sound like Russell now.

Don't follow that road.

[Roni_uk]

The first century of the tournament is coming up shortly from Eng. The contenders are:

1. Jason Roy
2. Johnny Bairstow
3. Ben Stokes
4. Joe Roots
5. Eoin Morgan
6. Jos Butler

[Jadukor]

Hope Root scores a century for my fantasy league points

pakistan should have selected imad instead of hasan ali. i think spinners will be handy today. hafeez, shadab and shoib malik need to do extra work today

[One World]

If PAK wins will this be an upset considering all recent matches between these teams

[Miraz]

England has the batting power to overhaul the target, but it's a world cup match. Early wicket can derail the chase easily.

[Roni_uk]

4 off the second ball

[Roni_uk]

and another

[aklemalp]

Amir starts off with a beauty

[aklemalp]

How the hell England has a 60% win %?

[Jadukor]

How did that miss off stump. Wonderful ball from Amir

[One World]

Bairstow struggling as usual
