I'd take a deficit of 50 going into the 2nd innings.

Looks like the game is going to be up pretty soon for England in this 3rd test with 120-2 andf a 78 runn lead for Pakistan with oodles of time left in this match.

Englands batsmen have lergely not been up to the job in this series in an hour or so i am off to work but will catch uop with the England horror show from there.:(

Cannot fault our bowlers though they have put England in winning position several times for the batsmen to squander it.:(

Well denphone unless teams start to tour Pakistan again we may well have to as this is Pakistans home gorund to all intents and purposes.

After the tests England have 4 ODI and and 3 20/20 matches on the same couple of grounds v Pakistan .:erm:

Then England move on to Sri Lanka for 2 test matches on this showing Englands batsmen will seriously have to up their game for them.

Yes lets look forward to the summer.:D
