Official - First Test - England V Pakistan.

[Moshe Gariani]

11.5 Umar Gul to Trescothick, OUT, but he’s gone now, plays away from his body – a willy, wally waft outside off-stump, gets a thin outside edge straight to Akmal. Pakistan strike

 

[Trigger]

60/2 Strauss gone aswell now.

WICKET: England 60-1 (Trescothick 16)
Huge appeal from Gul and wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal as Trescothick flicks at a wide one - and Steve Bucknor raises his Finger of Doom. Banger's bat was so far from his body you could have driven a bus through the gap - sideways.

1145: Danish Kaneria makes a Montyesque attempt to stop a gentle Strauss nudge, waving his boot uncertainly at the ball and failing to make any contact. Delight in the TMS commentary box as a delivery of pork pies arrives just as Mike Gatting comes on air.

We can beat Pakistan, but we cant beat the Umpires as well
