It'll definitely be a challenge but I think we'll get home with 3-4 wickets to spare. Pakistan are also prone to shelling chances when defending a total so we should get some extra lives.
Agree with Thomas, Cook and Root are key wickets. At least one of them needs to bat most of the day. I think Root will be the man. Cook will struggle against the spin.
I'm really looking forward tomorrow. It will be a famous victory if we pull this off. And I'd love to see the lads wipe the smirk off England hater Mickey Arthur by getting the runs.
