playing like they want the test match over as quickly as possible perhaps?
To be honest, I think the plan throughout the series has been for BM to go after the bowlers early on. He got a couple of quick starts, but this time it's really come off and the pressure has also given KW a lot of bad balls to punish. However, the players don't really seem to want to be out there and I'm sure they'd welcome a quick result. Bit of column A and a bit of column B, probably.
Think this is a fair point. Baz has been looking to do this and the circumstances have enabled him to pull it off a bit easier perhaps. Amazing innings though, great powers of concentration. Equally, putting us in with a very very good chance of winning a test match. I know that that shouldn't matter at the moment but to come away from an away series against Pakistan with a drawn series would be one of our best test achievements in a long time.
