Transcript
00:00You
00:30You
00:35Hello and a very warm welcome to the Bank Alphala presents Kingdom Valley test series Pakistan versus England
00:42It was Pakistan's Shaan Masood who won the toss and elected to bat first
00:48Pakistan feeling a very strong 11 with the quality in batting all the way through and
00:53Reinforcements in that bowling department shine Shah Afridi Nassim Shah the bowling all-rounder Amir Jamal and a bra Ahmed with the spin
01:02Ollie Pope leads England in this first test as Ben Stokes still nurses that hamstring injury
01:08They go in with three quick bowlers with Brighton cars on debut including the two spinners in a show a Bashir and Jack Leach
01:17Let's join the action with our commentators here on day one at the start of play
01:24Just
01:27Looking at England's slipcord
01:29Rummy's because Zack Crawley broke his finger
01:34And the end of the West Indies series, so he missed the whole of the Sri Lanka series
01:38Normally, he'd be in a second slip next to Joe route in between route
01:44That's a lovely drive what a great way to get off the
01:48Really attractive player to watch when he's in for
01:51As a special
01:59Peel down the lakeside and he's gone
02:03Squeeze down the lakeside and soft dismissal. You've got to say and Simon you once again looking decent and then getting up
02:12These are normal deliveries that any batsman will say to himself, okay, it's just there nicely
02:17Maybe a little extra bounce because it's glove not bad
02:20You just think you can take it away
02:24Little extra bounce has made all the difference
02:26That's what Atkinson has in his favor, but Simon you goes for four and the first wicket is down for eight
02:34At number three is Pakistan's captain Sean Masood
02:47It's a very useful shot to have in the subcontinent
03:10Slightly up ish but welcome to it again
03:16She's
03:28Nice drive beats mid-off
03:33The outfield here you wouldn't say it's rapid
03:46I'm a child probably straighter than he intended it to go in the end when that's why
04:06Stretched his left hand. So this is a good firm response from Shana
04:17Oh
04:20Desperate run
04:21He played so well. He's played beautifully this morning and then suddenly chanced his arm
04:27And surely would have gone with a direct hit
04:31Or he was not even in the frame that is a big chance you've got to take these chances in these conditions
04:38Really from that range is missed by a distance
04:46In control and that's the dividend that he takes from coming down in the pitch
04:54His feet that's why some of those deliveries were a bit slow it comes again
05:00Which is that poorly this is very very good batting
05:04She had a little bit of pressure to start with and straight away
05:07But now I'm going to change it builds up
05:13Has pushed that away nicely into a big big gap, that'll be two
05:18And that'll be 50 for Shana soon and this opening day of this first test match here in Motown
05:24Is 1150 in test matches second against England
05:32Massive innings for Shana suit he needs a lot of runs
05:38Always good that captain is running in good form probably will give him confidence to be a better leader as well
05:49Sweet shot really sweet
05:55Just to say
06:07Fisher
06:19As well, this is lovely
06:24Yes, very very competent against spin and both have looked good
06:37I
06:42Serious
06:56Such a good shot nevertheless because he had to expose the stumps to find the gap
07:07A beautiful way to go to a half-century
07:11Super confident, beautifully struck
07:16And so Abdullah Shafiq goes through to his half-century
07:19Following his captain to 650 in test matches
07:24That's a tremendous strike, once again great use of the feet trusting the strip
07:29And trusting his skills against spin
07:321, 2, 3 and bang over Longar
07:34Massive six
07:36Grand way to bring up your 50 and a very good way to come back into some form
07:47Well, there we have it gently just baldness first over of the day
07:50The bales have been gently tipped off the stumps to signal that's the end of the first session of play
07:56In this first test here in Motown, first test of three between Pakistan and England
08:01And it's been a good morning for Pakistan, Shana suit on the right there
08:07As we break for lunch the first session clearly belonging to Pakistan scoring at 4.88 runs and over
08:13They scored 122 runs just with the loss of the one wicket that of Saim Ayyub
08:18Both Abdullah Shafiq and Shana Masood with well-deserved half-centuries
08:2253 to Abdullah Shafiq, 61 to Shana Masood and 22 for one Pakistan
08:27It was tough work out there for England in the hot conditions here in Multan
08:31All five bowlers being given a go with just the one wicket to cuss at incident
08:35Let's join the action as the players make their way out post-lunch
09:05Abdullah Shafiq able to play the ball all along the ground
09:08It was very of the fact that quite a few fielders place for an upper stroke on the onside
09:16This time Abdullah Shafiq takes it on and takes it on quite nicely
09:20Extremely well-timed again, picks up another four
09:24And as a batsman you're able to build the ball in front of square
09:28Where it tells you the pitch is flat, offering you a lot of time
09:36And it's very comfortable, he's very comfortable with Abdullah Shafiq
09:48Nicely swept
09:51And the Pakistan stripper, he goes to 75 and guess what, it's another boundary
10:00Whatever the question is going to be, we'll leave it just for now
10:06Does the short ball quite work? No, it doesn't
10:10And Shahan Muslim gets enough on this
10:13Picks up six
10:17Yeah, the pace but not well-directed
10:19Shahan gets enough
10:20It is the first six off
10:24That ploy after lunch
10:26Yes
10:32Down the pitch
10:33And just bolted over Midoff
10:35Midoff is up all the way in
10:37And that goes all the way to the boundary
10:42150 partnership
10:44Beautiful use of the feet
10:46Comes up straight away and that was premeditated
10:48He was going to come down and go hard at Jack Leach
10:53But his feet are in exactly the right place
10:55i.e. not too close to the wall, not too far away
10:58And that was just a beautiful swing of the bat
11:01Lovely strike
11:06Just passed, left slip
11:09Got a fingertip to it but can't stop it going for another boundary
11:15Rook in that position around the corner
11:18And it caught up with him and made it straight into the hands of Harry Brook
11:22As it was, he didn't get it anywhere near the middle of the bat
11:26So it came off quick enough
11:28It was in the right direction for him and just didn't carry
11:34Lovely back foot punch
11:35There's only one fielder in front of square
11:38And he can't stop it
11:40That is a lovely shot
11:48Many played better than this today
11:50Yeah, it's a good pitch, it's a bounce
11:53Look at the technique, right on top of the bounce
11:56Beautiful balance, that walk timing
12:00Brilliant
12:01And in that correct place
12:04No chance
12:06That is perfect
12:11Yep, we're going straight on to the middle of Sean Masood's bat
12:18Yeah
12:24A pitch up delivery and Sean Masood's not going to miss out
12:28Almost striking out a hundred
12:31Yeah, half volley
12:35Nothing really in terms of swing so just opened the face, placed it away
12:40And he's in now
12:42Couple of fronts of his central
12:48Off his hip
12:49And the fifth Test 100 for Sean Masood
12:53His first as Test match captain
12:57A man who came into the series under a bit of pressure
13:01Has shown his class on day one
13:03Great
13:06Massive moment for Sean Masood
13:07Stamps his authority as captain
13:11Second century against England
13:13But this one will mean much much more
13:18Come on
13:23That's the challenge when you do bowl that line
13:25Go slightly wide or slightly short
13:27And you open up the offside
13:29Get on those wicket ends and you'll do well
13:31To catch up with it
13:34It was excellent work
13:40And Sean Masood cuts behind point
13:43For four, very elegant player
13:47The margins are squeezing on a pitch like this
13:50Round the stubs, little bit of width
13:53Nicely put away, through point
13:56Making a point
14:04And across the line of the ball
14:06That's been driven beautifully square
14:07There is a sweeper out there
14:10Masood is fitting off and quick enough
14:13To come back for two, 2.14 for one
14:18Passed over before tee
14:24He swept nicely
14:26And moved into the 90s
14:33We're talking about possibilities for reverse sweep
14:35In the previous field set
14:36And this is just to
14:38Also help the southpaw down the leg side
14:43This one hits the gap, that's what it takes
14:48Happy to block it
14:50And go into tee
14:52In the 90s, the nervous 90s for him
14:55But he'll be very pleased to be there
14:57With his skipper
14:5994 for him, Sean Masood, 130
15:05225, unbroken stand
15:10Abdullah Shafiq and Sean studied the fort
15:12And held ship quite magnificently
15:14As Sean converted to a well-awaited
15:16113 from 142 not out
15:19Abdullah Shafiq on the other hand
15:20Just six shy of a three-figure mark
15:25The hard toil for the English bowlers continued
15:27Joe Root was the one more added to that bowling list
15:30But had no more wickets in that wickets column
15:32Pakistan, 233 for one
15:35Let's head right into the commentary box
15:37For the action in the last session
15:45Do you know what, I think he
15:46Might even have tossed that up a little bit
15:53Ooh, now that might
15:56Just have carried
15:59If it did, it was the sharpest of chances
16:02Just not have made it
16:06Position actually that Ollie Pope has taken
16:08Some excellent catches in
16:11Took an outstanding catch in that position
16:14Against West Indies a little bit earlier last side
16:21Nicely played, that is beautifully played
16:24Straight down the ground, clears the boundary
16:27He reached his 15th with a six
16:29He reaches 100 with a six
16:32And that is his 500th in Test matches
16:35His second against England
16:38And Root in awesome style
16:54Well his reaction here, taking
16:57A long time to soak up the applause
17:00And kissing the surface
17:02Or the surface that's been prepared for a Test match
17:04Hence tells you all you need to know
17:06About what this means to Abdullah Shafiq
17:08Who's come into this
17:10Match like a lot of the Pakistan line-up
17:12Just wondered David, watching the six
17:14That whether he was suffering from a little bit of cramp as well
17:17We'll go back to that
17:18Replay just now as
17:20She guides him all the way down to
17:23Goal line for another four
17:24But he's been suffering from a bit of cramp
17:26Post-tee as Pakistan bring up their 250
17:29250
17:35Well that's going to find its way down
17:37To the boundary
17:42It's a pull shot
17:43It's another single
17:44It's a 150 for Sean Masood
17:46His second 150 plus score
17:50Guy was struggling big time
17:52With the technical issues
17:54And his leadership was all over the place
17:56This is such a good beginning
17:58Against a fine England side
18:04And gone
18:05A little bit casual
18:07But wicked has come England's way
18:09They have to toil extremely hard
18:11And this Abdullah Shafiq
18:13Who's probably
18:15Been just a little bit
18:18Maybe concentration was a little off
18:20He was tiring a little
18:22And he's gone
18:24Now this is familiar
18:26I've seen Abdullah Shafiq getting up
18:28So many times in a single offence
18:31Laying away from the body
18:35Not leaning forward
18:37Was not in control of that stroke
18:40And finally
18:41A joy for the fastballer
18:43Here at Tutmin Town International Stadium
18:45It's Abdullah Shafiq
18:47Walking back
18:49Getting a hundred on the swings
18:51Babar Azam is in
18:52In need of some runs
18:57Gone, cut in both
19:00As they say
19:01You should avoid driving a spinner
19:03Straight back at him
19:04And so it was an easy catch in the end
19:06And Shaan Massoud once again
19:08Voting it worse on the cards
19:10Unfortunately because
19:12He's cramping up and not there completely
19:15And it actually
19:16Tipped on Shaan Massoud
19:18He was looking to hit the ball
19:20To extra cover
19:23Rukwai
19:25Kept to the pitch of the ball
19:26And hence
19:27Made the ball in the air
19:29And the left arm has been rewarded
19:33Fighting the ball
19:35And the catch from Shaan Massoud
19:37Comes to an end
19:38It's 151
19:40His personal score
19:41It's 263 for 3
19:43Left-hander replaces another left-hander
19:45Saad Shakeel
19:47Is off to a great start in test football
19:53Ha ha ha
19:55Well that's an inside edge for 4
19:57Dabar Azam there
19:58Looking to hit the ball
20:00Extremely hard through the offside
20:05He's so dead sure
20:06That he's not going to miss the ball
20:09But he plays it a little differently
20:11Compared to the others
20:12That's not such a nice sweep shot
20:14He's good against spin
20:15Now Shakeel
20:16That's his strength
20:17That's why he's slotted in the middle of it
20:20And that's his golden stroke
20:22Against the left-arm spinners
20:25Just catching the ball
20:27Offside
20:28Offside
20:29In the air
20:30There's no protection for the ball
20:32In that particular position
20:37There's the sweep shot
20:38And that's gone through
20:39Those two fielders once again
20:41That's good batting
20:44Taking on the left-arm
20:45Now he's bowling in his range
20:48Couple of boundaries for the left-hander
20:57He does it the other way
21:00That is good batting
21:03Playing the field
21:05And getting three boundaries in that over
21:10Oh wow
21:11Another one nicely weighted on it
21:13And
21:15That's good
21:17Look at
21:18Down to third to the fence
21:20I think the World Cups
21:21The captain has seen the World Cups
21:23Has weighed on his mind a bit
21:24Has
21:25Has come into play there
21:28That is a beautiful shot
21:29He's waited so long for
21:31For it just to arrive
21:40Not set for that one
21:42And that's been his problem today
21:44He's just lacked a little bit of consistency
21:50Now we turn this over to first over
21:52290 for three
21:55Yeah, it doesn't take much
21:57That we have
21:59Put in a bit
22:0015 inches that's a little stump
22:03And if there's a spin
22:04That's all it takes
22:06Just to give you a little bit of space to free the arms
22:08Timing is good here
22:12And there is left to right hand
22:14The same result
22:16Very, very similar in terms of the two shots played
22:20And both the batsmen
22:22Have started to back themselves
22:24It wasn't a hard volley
22:26Was able to hit the ball on the up bar
22:28Barraza
22:29That's ominous
22:35Gun barrel straight
22:36And skidding on to the back
22:39Exactly like that
22:40Just follow the line
22:42And hit it to the gutter
22:48A bit of wick this time
22:49It's very nice to put away
22:51Timing is good
22:56That low roof error
22:59For the bowlers on the surface like this
23:02Slightly short
23:04The bounce was good
23:06That's why South Shaquille
23:08Was able to play that stroke
23:13He's found the gap again
23:15Has Barraza
23:20Not the same force or timing
23:22As in the previous over from that
23:24He's still going for runs
23:34How straight is that?
23:36Is it straight enough?
23:38Umar Damsain has said yes
23:41Took his time to think about it
23:43Barraza will review that
24:00Well this poor uniform then
24:03Results for Barraza
24:05Continues just in the dying moments
24:07Of this first day here in Waterloo
24:09He misses a straight one
24:11Reviews it
24:12The reviewer doesn't do him any favours
24:16So for Barraza
24:17He aims to make up for that
24:19Just 30 to his name
24:21And 71 errors faced
24:24As the sun sets
24:25Serves his day with the score
24:26324 for 4
24:35Very solid way to finish the day
24:37That defensive shot from South Shaquille
24:40Has been hard work for all England bowlers
24:42Especially for those
24:44Trying to bowl with pace
24:45On this very passive pitch
24:47Testing day
24:48Raleigh Pope is captain
24:52Session 3 saw some more wickets for England
24:54And crawled their way back in
24:56They picked up 3 more
24:57Including the 2 Centurions and Barraza
25:00Sean missed with a prolific 151
25:02As well as Abdullah Shafiq with 102
25:04Both returned back to the hut
25:06Including Barraza with a 13
25:08South Shaquille still not out there
25:10At 35
25:11Pakistan 328 for 4
25:14While England turned a few more around
25:16Wokes picked up one
25:17Towards the end of the day's play
25:18Gus Atkinson with 2
25:19And Jack Leach with 1
25:21Off the Pakistan skipper
25:23It's been a fantastic day of cricket here
25:25On the first day
25:26We'll see you again tomorrow
25:36TORONTO 2015 PAN AM, PARAPAN AM GAMES
