Pakistan v England- 2nd ODI- http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 in trouble as Younis Khan departs – Match Update
Pakistan is in trouble against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Imtiaz-Sheikh-c64290 Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi. The veteran batsman, Younis Khan went back to the pavilion after scoring just 5 runs.
The Men in Green were ominously placed at 104 runs for the loss of three wickets and still require another 147 runs to win the match with 25.5 overs still left in the innings. The Pakistani skipper, Misbah-ul-Haq, came in to bat at the departure of Younis
and he will join http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Azhar-Ali-c46890 in the middle.
Pakistan got off to a solid start courtesy of Imran Farhat. The left-handed along with his opening partner, Mohammad Hafeez, put on an opening stand of 61 runs. Hafeez was the first one to go, off the bowling of James Anderson.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Imran-Farhat-c64218 was the next to go. Stuart Broad ran out the opener of his own bowling while he attempted a single. Farhat was unable to make the most of a dropped chance, a couple of overs before. He scored 47.
Earlier in the day, English skipper, Alastair Cook won the toss and selected to bat first. The left-hander scored his second consecutive century of the series and it was his innings of 102 runs that helped the Poms reach 250 in the allotted 50 overs.
England made no changes from the first game while Pakistan made three changes in their squad to get the right balance. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shoaib-Malik-c90088 made way for Abdur Rehman. Aizaz Cheema came in place
of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Wahab-Riaz-c95839.
