Shocking. Actually scrub that because England have always had a major problem playing spin on sub-continent wickets (or wickets like those in the Gulf). Play forward, use the bat and don't be so timid!

Pakistan looking to put a lead of around 150 on the board after starting the 2nd innings 40 odd behind. There back in the lead with 2 wickets down.

Good partnership going on here - Pakistan should now be able to get a lead of 200+.

Swann currently looks like the 4th best spinner in this game. And for fecks sake if you are going to bowl Monty into the ground get him to go round the wicket and at least try and bring the DRS in.

pakistans day, partnership of 190 for the 3rd wicket.

If they can get 3 an over tomorrow without being silly they can easily add another 150 and have England chasing 300+

Pakistan batting and batting and batting and as I type we are exactly at the half way point of the match in overs. Not looking good. Since th wicket this morning England have not looked like taking anything.

Morgan, Bell and KP are the three who are probably under most pressure. If its a seamers wicket then Monty will make way. The bowlers have done OK this series, its just the batting has been terrible. Will be the first 3+ series England have played in 13 years where no England player has scored at least a century.

Pakistan win the game by 71 and wrap up a comprehensive 3-0 series win.

Good effort to get that close but the scorecard is littered with players who got themselves in and into the teens and then got themselves out. Far too many batting failures over the course of the series.

Let the inquest begin!
