England likely to have blown their 9/4 chance by the close.
You watch Ali throw his wicket away before 6 overs are bowled.
Ali to top edge a sweep off the 5th ball he faces or, if he is really concentrating, he will slap one straight to point for 15.You watch Ali throw his wicket away before 6 overs are bowled.
Around the 300 mark and we have a chance with a good start so as suggested perhaps Cook and Bell to open.
Moeen has taken a nast blow to the back of the helmet/neck... taking his time to recover... hope he is alright??
Good start? Moeen Ali is averaging 12.80 in this series and there is immense pressure on both him and Cook. Bell has no tons, one fifty in 5 knocks this series as well as a hatful of dropped catches. After Root we have a rookie in Taylor, and Stokes is hors de combat. If England pull this off it will be their highest ever run chase in Asia. I'm not holding my breath...
Three more overs before Moeen needlessly skies a wide one...

Cooks average for series at 96 and Bell's 39.5 would get us almost halfway there.
