2nd Test and goodbye to Multan

Back in Multan for 2nd test. This turned our to be a first for everyone as it was played on the same pitch as the first test. This seemed like a gamble for Pakistan and the only way they thought a win was possible. The gamble paid off when they won the toss and were always in the box seat as the wicket started to get worse quite quickly.

To be fair Pakistan played well, as the England coach said afterwards Pakistan were probably 65:35 favourites having batted first but they batted and bowled well - probably helped by some indifferent fielding from England and some bad shot execution (or choice) by our batsman.

So we leave Multan behind. Security here has been fairly intense and it will be good to get to a more relaxed environment as the trip continues.
