I know T20 is a batters game but they couldn’t have made this easier for the batsman. It’s an absolute road of a wicket and the boundaries are like under 15s cricket.
Yes Pakistan have batted very well and England have bowled very poorly but I do think it’s probably a 190-200 par with the pitch in this condition. |  |

Agreed, it’s a flat track bully’s pitch.
Always more exciting if there’s a bit in it for the bowlers as well.
That said, a bit of moisture in the air around 9pm might make it tricky for England batting second. |  | | |

Wow.
Just watching Livingstone stand and smash every ball!
EDIT: too many others miscuing them though. [Post edited 16 Jul 2021 20:59]

Livingstone strike rate over 300 off 15! | |
| |
| Anyone watching the cricket on 21:08 - Jul 16 with 1042 views | Nthsuffolkblue |
And 50 off 17!
56 off 18 is back over 300!
And then keeps the strike back at 300.
And we still aren't halfway to the total yet! [Post edited 16 Jul 2021 21:11]

This is an unreal knock, regardless of the track. |  |

As CoastalBlue said further up, it isn't really cricket. But it is still entertaining to watch. | |

If they do it from here it will be stunning, great Friday night viewing! |  |

I’ve just got back from the game. It was like a home game for Pakistan for much of it in terms of noise. England just lost wickets at the wrong time but boy, was it great to be back in a stadium watching sport! |  |

It looked amazing.
The best thing about international cricket in this country is that you’re pretty much guaranteed excellent support for the tourists.
Atmosphere always electric. | |

The next best thing about cricket is that you can enjoy watching a great match, win, lose or tie.
Unless it's against Australia, then the result is everything.
Is it fair to say that Pakistan finally clicked into gear in the 3rd 50 over match, and so came into this one "hot", whereas England's first team bowlers had lost intensity and sharpness due to the Covid lay off? | | | |

T20 would is a much better spectacle if you make the pitch as big as possible. More athleticism needed from the fielders, batsmen needing to work out if they can run a three or whether to settle for two, more run-outs, and the sight of people with really good throwing arms zipping the ball in from the boundary, waist-high. And sixes which actually require a clean hit. It's a shame they push the boundaries in thirty yards at some of the big grounds. |  | | |

i was at Trent Bridge last evening and what a wonderful time was had by all. Full house, exhilarating cricket, fastest ever hundred by an Englishman, plenty of beer on hand, and mixing with the oh so joyous Pakistanis. All the best of English sport......
Didn't get home until 1:45 because of A14 diversions, but what the heck, well worth it. | | | |
