Victory Salute

"Yes Captain"

Down Saeed, Down

Never easy to suppress a spinner, especially once he has a couple of wickets.

Inspirational Cricket

Farhan Saeed gives it plenty for the Pakistan Disabled cricket team.

There are a lot of sad jokes I could make about able bodied bowlers but in this case all I can say is good on you Farhan.

Good to see cricket is becoming a part of a greater range of nationalities and people.

Fun In The Sun

Well Azhar Ali is seen having fun, the bowlers not so much.

There Is A Season...

... turn, turn, turn.

C'mon The Bowlers

Zimbabwe can't bat against pace, England can't bat against spin and India can't bat.

Saeed Ajmal's face speaks for all those successful bowlers who are strutting their stuff on the test match stage at the moment. Happy times.

Get Happy

Saeed Ajmail expressing the joy that comes with ten wickets in a match and the test defeat of an old foe.

England may have some early season blues but these Pakistani boys are starting to become a very competitive unit - watch out India!

Umar Loves Cricket

There used to be a Pakistani blogger who's blog was named Omar Loves Cricket. I would like to think he is out there somewhere with a bit of a smile on his face.

Umar Gul gave us a great example of how you only need a small number of really good deliveries to generate great figures.

Funny old game, cricket.

To Be Remembered

The tragedy is that this Lord's test will now be remembered for no balls and spot prices.

The worst thing about corruption is that it taints everyone, including the innocent and outstanding.

A Rainy Day In London

You have to admire the committment and loyalty of the average England cricket fan.

Staying Strong

There is no fooling the Wing Commander. He knows you can't rely on Pakistan to do the expected and like all good boy scouts he will be fit and prepared.

Either that or the prunes aren't working.

History Never Has the Last Word

Zulqarnain Haider and Saeed Ajmal congratulate each other on being Test cricketers. The new boys have made the difference and, even though they will probably not win the match, their efforts are just what the rest of the team needed. But this is Pakistan so you can read nothing into what might happen next.

What The....?!*!

... hell am I doing here?
... bloody hell were we doing batting first?
... hell do we call this? We can't call it batting!

Small But Mighty

Eion Morgan is in danger of becoming a cult hero.

• A six to reach your maiden test century.
• All the difficult shots.
• Little man verses the world.
• Success in all forms of the game.
• Good back story.

All things that will endear him to The England faithful and bandwagon jumpers every where.

Eion would do well to look at what has happened to some of the other cult heroes that have gone before - that might be where he "finds the fear" that he doesn't currently have at the crease.
