@Devon Von Devon was this expected on your shores? 10 year ban is huge.

Former Pakistan opener Nasir Jamshed has been banned for 10 years for his part in the spot-fixing scandal that marred the 2017 Pakistan Super League.

The 28-year-old, who played in 48 one-day internationals and two Test matches, had already been given a one-year ban for his failure to co-operate with an investigation into the issue.

The Pakistan Cricket Board said Jamshed was the "lynchpin" in the scandal.

Six Pakistani players have been given bans of varying lengths.

  • Former opener banned after spot-fixing investigation
  • Batsman Shahzaib Hasan has ban increased to four years

The five other players are Sharjeel Khan, Khalid Latif, Mohammad Irfan, Mohammad Nawaz and Shahzaib Hasan.

PCB legal adviser Taffazul Rizvi said: "The tribunal has reached the verdict that the PCB's multiple charges against Nasir Jamshed have been proved and he was banned for 10 years."

Joe Root just handed us this game with that terrible decision at toss. 

losing 10 wickets in a session on a largely favourable batting pitch is also a big factor xD 

Good for the series that India win this. I need it to be competitive for the final test :P

He'll be a quality player. Sometimes you just get a feeling about a player who will go on to be a star and he is one of them. Literally 'no fucks given' approach with some great shots against one of the best bowling attacks in the world. Putting the rest of the England side to shame.

Anything above 150 to chase in the fourth innings and we will lose this match. 

Yeah we need some good stands to save this match. Can't just rely on Kohli and Pujara. On a wicket that will turn as well can't imagine us holding out. Need to get Broad and Anderson out quickly tomorrow morning though.

This is somewhat like the nineties, when if Sachin failed then we lost. Kohli has taken on his role. 

I feel bad for the bowlers. It's now two away series, where they have consistently bowled out the opposition between 200-300,and the batsmen (baring Kohli and an occasional inning from Pujara or Rahane) have failed. 

What is the coach doing. Kumble was sacked for Shashtri, because Kohli found him too authoritative. But does Shashtri add anything? What's the bloody point of Bangar the batting coach. He was not talented in his playing days, but by God he could put in a performance of grit. Why is he not able to sort out the other batsmen. 

Kohli prepared for this series by training with Sachin in Mumbai, and it showed. Pujara played county cricket. The others simply decided to show up and hoped that they would eventually get used to the conditions. Some of them need dropping. 

Also, playing an unfit Ashwin in this test hurt the side.

Fair play to England. They have serious problems with some of their batsmen, but their bowlers and all rounders saw them to victory, helped by our inability to take our chances. A better side would have won 3 of the tests against this English side.

it's a shame this test wasn't won as no doubt the 5th test would have been intense and potential to be one of the all-time great test matches given the quality in each side. I said on another site that without Kohli, we would have been embarrassed more so than we were 4 years ago. He's the only one who's mastered these conditions and as you say, if it wasn't Pujara or Rahane supporting, barely anyone else would. No-one else would make a stand or resist the English bowling attack. At times, England were there for the taking - they have Curran to thank for 2 of the tests; this one and the Edgbaston one moreso. What a player he'll be. Could have been a totally different scoreline both in the individual matches and series if we got him out early. 

There's little disciple and patience in this side if the top 4/5 get out. It's very IPL-oriented with the likes of Pant and Pandya in the side. They're not made for tests; while they may be easy on the eye and will come in for cameos with sixes and fours it's sometimes not what you need in tests cos you're bound to get out swinging. Today was the perfect example of emphasis needed to be put on tiring out the bowlers and getting them frustrated while the pitch worked in the bowler's favour. Compare our middle/lower order batsmen to England's - where you have Buttler, Stokes and Curran who can adapt their attacking, aggressive game to a more organised and composes innings.

 

As an aside, it's been a fantastic series to watch and I'm glad to have seen Kohli succeed here. I think personally it would have meant a lot to him but losing the series would have hurt as he seems to have worked on his game so much. Just hope he can end this tour on a high with a win in the next match. I'm going on the first day on Friday so hopefully we see some good cricket! There's been a rollercoaster of emotions on this tour for both sides and at times it's been enthralling to watch.

Aren't India the best side in the world?

one of.

At home, India are very hard to beat. When it comes to playing away, especially England, we rarely win a series. India, South Africa, England are probably the top 3, any given order.

Although we are bound to lose but i wasn't looking forward to this match at all, i cant remember any Pak vs India match which had a poor build up and hype as this one.

Nobody here was bothered about it. Can't remember the last time there was such a lack of interest in an India-Pakistan match. 

Saw the highlights. Really poor match despite the easy win. 

The scheduling of this competition has been poor.
