and ball-by-ball details After subsiding for 208 to set West Indies a target of
153, Pakistan took five wickets to leave the Sharjah Test tantalisingly poised
at stumps on day four.
Goedkoop Nike Air Max 2017 . But, just 39
runs away from claiming their first win of the UAE tour, West Indies held the
edge thanks to Kraigg Brathwaites immovable presence at the crease.Brathwaite,
who had carried his bat through the first innings for 142, was at the crease on
44, having seen his side through a startling wobble that had left them 67 for 5.
He looked calm and solid throughout his knock, assured in defence and adept at
rotating the strike. Shane Dowrich, who kept him company in an unbroken 47-run
sixth-wicket stand that saw out the day, was less convincing early in his
innings, playing Wahab Riaz with feet rooted to the crease and stumps exposed.
Nonetheless, he settled in to hit some telling boundaries towards the end of the
day and tilt the balance back in West Indies favour.That West Indies found
themselves with the upper hand was thanks in no small part to some loose cricket
from Pakistan. In a tragicomic collapse after lunch, Pakistan lost five wickets
for 33 runs, including 3 for 4 in the space of 18 balls, to be bowled out for
208.The slide began in the seventh over after lunch, when legspinner Devendra
Bishoo had Mohammad Nawaz caught at short leg. He landed the ball on a good
length in the rough outside the left-handers off stump and extracted just enough
turn to pick up an inside edge to Leon Johnson, who stuck out his left hand to
take a sharp catch.Bishoos next wicket came four overs later, when Azhar Ali,
batting on 91, gifted his wicket away. Seeing a liberally flighted delivery,
Azhar started shaping for a sweep, before realising the ball was too far outside
off stump for the shot. Instead of leaving the ball alone, Azhar then offered a
limp drive and only succeeded in guiding it to Darren Bravo at first
slip.Thirteen balls later, Mohammad Amir perished to one of the most
entertaining run-outs conceivable to leave Pakistan in even greater trouble.
Wickets were now falling at increasingly short intervals; the next one came
after four balls when Wahab Riaz turned a Holder delivery to Johnson, who took a
remarkable reflex catch at short leg, off the face of the bat.Zulfiqar Babar
then chipped in with a six and a four in a seven-ball 15 that took Pakistan past
200 and their lead past 150. But Holder trapped Yasir Shah in front for a duck
to conclude a breathless passage of play and collect figures of 5 for 30. It was
Holders first five-wicket haul in Tests and put his team within sight of their
first Test win under his captaincy.Having left the door wide open for West
Indies, Pakistan then proceeded to give them encouraging nudges towards the
threshold. Off the fifth delivery of the chase, Amir found Johnsons edge only
for Misbah-ul-Haq to put down a regulation chance at third slip. Amirs
frustration was compounded in his next over, when Sami Aslam, at first slip,
made a total hash of another chance off the same batsman.But shortly after tea,
West Indies lost 5 for 38 in a period of play that brought Pakistan roaring
back. Yasir got the first three of those wickets. Johnson, looking to pull a
shortish delivery, was hit in front when the ball did not rise as much as he
expected. Bravo was set up beautifully by four legbreaks before Yasir slipped
one in that did not turn as much and took the outside edge. Marlon Samuels went
for an irresponsible loft with long-off in place and holed out to Babar.Then
Wahab bowled Jermaine Blackwood when the batsman brought down an angled bat to a
ball that honed into the stumps from around the wicket. When Roston Chase
flicked Wahab in the air to midwicket, West Indies were tottering.Perhaps
fittingly, West Indies recovery was engineered by a man who had hardly been off
the field throughout the match. With Dowrich for company, and Holder and Bishoo
still to come, Brathwaite can expect decent support as he attempts to steer his
team to their first win in 14 Tests.

.Y. - New York City has been selected to host the NBA All-Star weekend in 2015,
with the game played at Madison Square Garden and the slam dunk contest and
other skills events held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Pakistan 340 for 6
(Younis 101*, Sarfraz 17*) lead England 328 by 12 runsScorecard and ball-by-ball
detailsIt was across the river Thames, at Lords last month, where Pakistans
stunning victory in the first Test set the agenda for a series that has proven
to be constantly enthralling, if not always as competitive as had initially been
promised. But now, on their return to London, a city in which England have found
success strangely elusive in recent months, Pakistan fronted up with their most
comprehensive days batting of the tour so far, to give themselves real hope of
snatching a 2-2 draw from the fourth and final Test at the Kia Oval.Thanks to
centuries from Asad Shafiq and Younis Khan, plus a gutsy 49 from Azhar Ali and
even a bonus 26 in the first hour of the day from the nightwatchman, Yasir Shah,
Pakistan confounded their doubters, having resumed on an ominous 3 for 1
overnight, to reach 340 for 6, a lead of 12, at the close of a perfect day for
run-harvesting. Their position might have been even stronger but for the efforts
of Chris Woakes. He had been let down by his catchers in a messy start to
Englands day, but got his just deserts shortly before the close, striking twice
in five balls after rightfully earning a share of the new ball.The mainstay of
Pakistans performance was Shafiq, promoted up the order following the indignity
of a pair in last weeks third Test, who answered the call with a gutsy, patient
and hugely accomplished ninth Test century. He picked his strokes with
authority, particularly through the covers, and showed admirable resolve in
waiting 17 nervy deliveries on 99 before easing a cathartic single past mid-on
off the spin of Moeen Ali to reach three figures.But it was the return of the
King that really set Pakistans innings apart from its flimsy predecessors at Old
Trafford and Edgbaston. Just as Misbah-ul-Haq had done at Lords, so Younis at
The Oval provided that stamp of old-stager authority to ensure that Pakistans
hint of a revival during the days first two sessions had been transformed into
real substance by the close. He too endured an anxious time on 99, stuck at the
non-strikers end as Woakess startling bounce accounted for Misbah, caught at
gully for 15, and then the debutant Iftikhar Ahmed for an ugly top-edged smear
to Moeen at mid-on, one ball after thumping his first runs straight down the
ground.But Younis has seen it all before, and having waited six deliveries,
spread across four overs, for the right moment, he nurdled Woakes into the leg
side to bring up a masterful 32nd Test hundred, from 139 balls. Like Shafiq
before him, Younis settled for a celebratory sajdah but none of the salutes and
press-ups that had characterised Pakistans previous milestones. The time for
team-galvanising gestures has long gone. Now it is all about the cricket and the
series scoreline, and by the close, he was still in situ, unbeaten on 101 with
Sarfraz Ahmed settling in confidently alongside him on 17.The feature of Youniss
innings was that it lacked many features at all. Somehow, through a combination
of willpower, hard work in the nets and a greater degree of confidence in the
Oval conditions, he had managed to shelve those anxious pogo-stick pushes that
had characterised his lack of form earlier in the series, and instead produced
an innings that was grounded in every sense.With every passing delivery, Younis
looked more and more like his regal former self - a man with more than 9000 Test
runs to his name, including (as the Oval scoreboard was proud to announce
shortly before tea) more than 1000 fours and counting. Fifteen of those have
come in this innings alone, as well as a mighty swipe into the OCS Stand, as he
made it his elder statesmans duty, like Misbah previously in the series, to take
the cudgels to Englands spinner, Moeen.For England, it was a day that finished
on an uplifting note, and with the new ball still fresh, they will expect to
keep Pakistans lead to the sort of manageable proportions that they achieved at
Edgbaston last week. But the first session in particular was a very different
story, as three catches went down, one of each of the batsmen to feature at that
stage. As England themselves demonstrated in the first innings, when a spate of
let-offs allowed Jonny Bairstow and Moeen to engineer their own recovery frrom
110 for 5, opportunities on this pitch are hard to recreate when they are
allowed to go begging.
Nike Air Max 98 Supreme. The first to benefit
- though not for long as it turned out - was the nightwatchman, Yasir, who had
been the focus of heated attention from Englands fielders when play resumed, on
account of his disputed catch at square leg to dismiss Alex Hales in Englands
first innings.Hales, who had joined Broad in a Twitter conversation at the close
of play in which they cast doubt on the dismissal, was seen in animated
conversation with Yasir during the opening overs of the day, and so there was no
little irony when Hales, of all people, shelled a dolly in the gully as Yasir
fenced loosely outside off from the very first ball of Woakes day. Before he
could make the chance count, Steven Finn struck in his second over, finding
sharp lift from a tight off-stump line for Joe Root to take a calmly juggled
edge at second slip, but he had done his job well, and proven to his team-mates
that England were there to be rattled.Azhar, who had been the silent partner
during a bonus stand of 49 for the second wicket, was then joined by Shafiq, who
had been slated to come in at No. 3 before Yasirs promotion. And though he got
off the mark for the first time since the Old Trafford Test, he too should have
been on his way for 7 when Woakes, once again, found some extra lift outside off
stump, only for Anderson at third slip to let the chance fizz through his
fingers for four.And, with lunch approaching, Azhar completed the hat-trick of
escapes when, on 35, he came forward to another sharp delivery from Finn and
looped a tantalising chance straight back at the bowler, who got both hands to
the offering but couldnt cling on.The pair had taken their stand along to 75
when Moeen made the breakthrough, albeit in mildly irregular circumstances.
Despite being under pressure throughout the series, he has retained a happy
knack of prising out vital wickets, and when Azhar dropped to his knees for a
missed sweep, England enthusiastically called for a review. Azhar was found to
be out - though not via an lbw, as the ball looped straight up in the air off
his gloves. Bairstow behind the stumps had pocketed the chance almost as an
afterthought, but the deflection was clear on Hot Spot and England had the
breakthrough.And so, into the fray came Younis, a skittish presence all series
long, but visibly more grounded from the outset, as he fought to control the
ticks and twitches that had crept into his game in the first three Tests. In
particular his flicks off the pads, the cause of several downfalls in the series
to date, were performed from a much more stable base, as he kept his balance and
made England pay whenever they strayed in line. There was an inevitability about
his innings that could only previously have been applied to his impending
dismissals, and that was never better showcased than in the manner with which he
reached his half-century. During the same passage of play in which Shafiq, on
99, was being tortured by Andersons drip-drip tactics outside off, he simply
leant back and caned the same bowler through backward point for four.Shafiqs
lack of showmanship meant he was well placed to absorb the pressure of the match
situation, and it took Englands most memorable moment of a poor day in the field
to end his vigil on 109. Finn, another man whose efforts hadnt earned the
rewards that he might have expected on a different day, banged in a rare
long-hop that indicated, perhaps, that his happy old knack for wicket-taking is
slowly seeping back into his game. Shafiq rocked into a pull only for Broad at
short midwicket to cling onto a blinder with two hands, diving to his left.He
departed with disappointment, but he had more than played his part. Just as at
Lords, where his vital twin contributions of 73 and 49 were overshadowed by a
masterful hundred from his captain, so this innings was destined to take second
place in his nations affections. But he wont mind that one bit. As he told
ESPNcricinfo recently, I want to do things very simply and quietly. He certainly
did that, and more. And he could yet have set Pakistan up for a remarkable share
of the spoils.
