Verdict

No respite for the South Africans

Television, cricket's big boss, slumped to newfound depths of cruelty at the close of the second day, forcing Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene into an immediate interview after a never-ending eight-hour partnership in stifling temperatures

Harmison comes out of hiding

It was about time that Steve Harmison delivered again for England in a Test match and he picked the first day of the second Test against Pakistan to burst back into form with 6 for 19

A methodical manner of attack

Ashwell Prince's first day at the helm could not have been worse: he failed with the bat, South Africa were bundled out for a record low and then his bowlers, after being teased by the success of a double-strike with the new ball, where flayed to all corn

27-Jul-2006•The Verdict by Charlie Austin

England lack courage of convictions

It's a sign that we live in turbulent times when an overnight lead of 341 is no longer considered sufficient to ensure a side against defeat, but Test cricket has changed beyond all recognition in the last five to ten years. At least, that was the assumpt

MoYo: Pakistan's new Mojo

Pakistan resorted to pragmatism that was unheard of yesteryear but is a brand value now, writes Kamran Abbasi

Old favourite helps Strauss find his feet

Apart from his unfortunate penchant for run-outs, Andrew Strauss can do no wrong at Lord's. A century on Test debut, a century on ODI debut, and now a century on his captaincy debut as well

16-Jul-2006•Andrew Miller at Lord's

England toil in uneven contest

England aren't making any excuses, but today they might have been excused if they had. Try as they might, there was simply no way through against a batsman who has scored runs for fun in his nine Tests against England

Hot shots, cool heads

Mohammad Yousuf and Inzamam-ul-Haq are two men who raise their game each time they step onto the field against England, writes Osman Samiuddin

Bell too keen to cut and run?

They said it would take three men to fill the boots of Andrew Flintoff, and so it has come to pass

Inzi's zombies beat surrender

Over the last two days Inzi's troops have wandered around Lord's like zombies, going through the motions instead of seizing the moments, writes Kamran Abbasi

Pakistan's Marathon Man

When Pakistan's options begin to run out, you can be rest assured that Danish Kaneria would be there, plugging away tirelessly, writes Osman Samiuddin

A Sunday to savour

Sabina Park - the once-great Caribbean fortress - was an arena transformed; 35 years of hurt overcome

Men versus boys: Dravid is the difference

Sixteen wickets fell today - some to unplayable deliveries, some to lack of technique and some to recklessness - but Rahul Dravid stood like a giant among pygmies

What was going off out there?

Andrew McGlashan's verdict from Headingley

India undone by bounce and blase attitude

At the end of the day there was only one team with broken hearts and it was most definitely not West Indies

01-Jul-2006•The Verdict by Siddhartha Vaidyanathan in Jamaica

Rather be safe than sorry

Suffice to say, West Indies missed a great chance to win a game; the fact that India were actually within striking range of sneaking it, tells you a bit about the contest.
