pitch is going to be very different for this game i'd have thought, not as fast, not as much bounce so it'll be interesting to see if the wickets come as easily this time round. i'm sure pakistan will up their game as well...

Akhtar isn't playing in this test, hes scheduled to play for Berkswell in Birmingham League on Saturday, who have Dom Ostler playing for them as captain. Not that fond of them though, bunch of tossers

I think its because its a back to back test and they didnt take into account that the second test finished in three days

You never quite know what you'll get at Headingley, if a Test at all, traditionally, its been a seamers paradise, so England have won games with the likes of Steve Watkin and Neil Mallendar getting wickets.....in which case Jon Lewis should start.
