how long/how many overs are we going to get

[olaftab]

About 4 overs ago they said 24 left in the day less changeover reduction so now I would say 16 or so at best?

who you open with olaf

[four fornicholl]

this is gonna be good come on england

[olaftab]

 So its 100 from 19 perfectly do able. To open? not Moeen or Cook. A 20/20 approach is needed as Pakistan will slow this right down darkness comes quickly so at best need to get these in 15.

will the floodlights not come into play

[manic-road]

Ali out.

[olaftab]

Not sure about floodlights as I think both teams have to agree. Also at two down if England lose another two it may be time to shut the shop!

[olaftab]

Clearly Pakistan think they can win this as well otherwise pace attack will slow down over rate dramatically.

[olaftab]

Root needs to win this in next 5 overs as there will be no more play after that.

[four fornicholl]

this is going to be close me thinks

[beness]

34 to win
