After a first innings which was an embarrassment for England with some seriously poor batting followed by a terribly lack-lustre attack when Pakistan first batted - the team finally began to get their act together - and by the end of the third day, stand poised to possibly win the test.
On a flat pitch (why groundsmen are allowed to prepare tracks like that beats me) - day three saw England shake off the shameful bowling of day two and dismiss Pakistan for a deficit of 103. Under normal circumstances, as the statisticians pointed out, this gave the hosts a mere 3% chance of winning.
Step forward skipper Cook and opening partner, Alex Hales, whose superb batting not only wiped out the deficit but also left the day with a wholly improbable, England lead.
Should England bat well today, a win, or at the very least a draw should be achievable as Pakistan may find batting extremely difficult on a fifth day pitch in their second innings, this evening or tomorrow.
Self explanatory title. I abhor that nicey nicey, politically correct, pseudo-Christianity which almost always supports leftwing attitudes - which in most cases are profoundly anti-Gospel.

This Blog supports truly Christian websites and aids their efforts. It is hardhitting and unashamedly evangelical so if it offends - please do not come to this site!
