England always have had an issue against quality leg spin. Chahal and Mishra Bamboozled them. Six wickets for Chahal in a t20 game, just imagine

What an end for Misbah and Younis. Two legends.

Misbah proving to really be the strong and stable leader Pakistan Cricket needed, and as Vic Marks once said, the Theresa May of Cricket, strong and stable leadership in the national interest.

Seriously? We'll be crushed and destroyed, India to win by at least 100 runs / 6-7 wickets.

At home no but they way they've played last couple of years plus it being at home and having just ripped SA apart in the ODI series who are number one ranked team, England rightly favourites.
