Probably an instant bok but they have been class. I hope we see both make 200.
Highest ever 8th wicket partnership.
Broad isn't far from highest ever score for a number 9.
Broad has beaten his Dad's highest test score.

Irt must feel real good to bang in a ton being a no.9.  Fair play to both.

Gutted that Amir is linked with these Pakistan betting scandals. Looks a good bowler but at a young age has already had his head turned if the allegations turn out to be true and the evidence looks pretty damming.

Appalling really, the evidence does look grim


Cricket is said to be the easiest sport to fix, and the Pakistani cricket culture remains hopelessly corrupt...but at £50,000 a no ball then a lot of heads will be turned...

Beats me how a no-ball can be worth £50k to anyone but not read the story as yet.

Around the same time the spread firms made 'first throw in' markets, they also made 'number of balls until a no-ball' markets.  I thought at the time what an easy market to rig.  when someone hoofs a football out in 2 seconds, it looks pretty iffy.  when the opening bowler oversteps first delivery, no-one blinks.  If you could short the spread, I could see it being worth 50k.  Or even a random prop bet, odds on there being a no-ball this over?

I have skimmed read stuff on cricinfo/bbc and it looks pretty bad.

The fact they are having the presentation out of the public eye, is a strange step and almost an admission that what is going on has some substance. Feel a bit sorry for the England team that they are getting their awards for the series in very strange circumstances, as they have done nothing wrong.

Hansie Cronje and that scandal was mostly in India iirc.

Shane Warne etc was with Indian bookies.
