England 328 and 88 for 4 (Bairstow 14*, Ballance 4*, Yasir 3-15) trail Pakistan 542 (Younis 218, Shafiq 109) by 126 runs Live scorecard and ball-by-ball detailsJonny Bairstow led Englands rearguard on the fourth morning at the Kia Oval, batting with intent and determination to reach 70 not out from 94 balls, but two big wickets in the course of the morning session meant that Pakistan, still leading by 20 runs, went to lunch needing four more wickets to set up a series-squaring victory in the fourth Test.For the best part of an hour, while Moeen Ali was bedding in alongside Bairstow in a brisk 65-run stand for the sixth wicket, England were able to revive some timely memories of the match-turning alliance that the same pair had produced from a similarly dicey position in the third Test at Edgbaston.However, with five minutes to go until the interval, Yasir Shah popped up with the vital scalp of Moeen for 32, to add to Sohail Khans earlier extraction of Gary Ballance for 17, to leave Englands fortunes hanging by the slenderest of threads. Bairstow and Chris Woakes have the calibre to carve out a lead of some description, but Pakistans determination to secure a share of the series has been palpable throughout this contest. It would be an astonishing turn-around from here.In spite of their precarious situation, England batted with confidence from the outset, with Bairstow especially belligerent as he resolved to play his natural attacking game. After taking a handful of overs to find his range, he laid into a slightly subdued Pakistan attack with three rifled drives for four off Amir and Wahab Riaz, whose fierce initial pace was tempered when Oxenford handed him his second warning for following through down the pitch. One more transgression and he will be removed from the attack.It was the less ferocious wiles of Sohail that finally prised the opening, as Ballance - who had been lining up the left-armers with confidence as they angled the ball back into his pads - found the right-armers seam and swing less easy to comprehend. Sohails fourth delivery of the morning was a triumph of line and length, as he pitched the ball on the left-handers off stump, found a modicum of movement off the seam and some steepling extra bounce to take the edge and climb through to Sarfraz Ahmed.Moeen, coming off the back of a brilliant first-innings hundred, immediately got off the mark with a flicked four off the pads and he too resolved to remain as fluent as possible as England sought to chisel away at their deficit.Yasir, whose confidence appeared to have been restored by his three-wicket burst on the third evening, struggled at first for the same impact and Moeen cashed in with a yawning straight six over long-on. But, having begun to find a decent rhythm from around the wicket as he targeted the rough outside the left-handers off stump, Yasir claimed the big breakthrough with the one that went straight on. Anticipating the spin, Moeen was instead suckered by extra bounce, and Sarfraz behind the stumps took a sharp edge with a hint of a juggle.Bairstow remained unmoved, and in the course of his innings, he became only the second player, after VVS Laxman in 2002, to score 900-plus runs in a year batting at No. 6 or lower. But hell need to take that tally considerably closer to 1000 to give England a chance in this contest. George Rogers Jersey .

CHICAGO -- With an eye on October, the Chicago Cubs will continue with a six-man rotation this month as lefty Mike Montgomery will remain a starter despite the return of John Lackey from the disabled list.Just trying to keep guys fresh for the rest of the year, manager Joe Maddon said before Sundays game against the San Francisco Giants. Its no more complicated than that.Montgomery will take his next turn in the rotation on Wednesday against the Milwaukee Brewers, giving the starters six days off between outings which includes an off-day on Thursday. The Cubs are taking no chances with their top arms as they prepare for up to three rounds of postseason baseball.Last year we saw it right before our eyes with Jake [Arrieta], Maddon said. The jump he encountered and what it meant at the end of last season.Its well documented how Arrieta hit a wall last year in the NLCS against the New York Mets after increasing his workload from the year before. The Cubs can be conservative with their starters as a result of their double-digit lead in their division.Right now, throughout the industry youre hearing about fatigue and people being skipped and all that stuff, Maddon said. Right now our starters aare pitching as well as they have all year.dddddddddddd I would like to think if we continue along this path well keep that freshness about them.The one obstacle Maddon knows hell run into is with his veteran pitchers. They dont necessarily like being pushed back extra days. Jon Lester, in particular, judges his season on whether he pitches 200 innings more than any other statistic. He has reached that number seven times in his career, needing 31 innings this year to hit that plateau.You run into a lot of regular starters that dont like that because theyve been trained not to like that, Maddon said. Under Maddons plan Lester should have four starts remaining, and he would need to average over seven innings per start to reach 200. Thats not likely to happen. Maddon believes preparing for a World Series run will trump individual accomplishments.At that point I think theyll pretty happy, the manager stated. If you have someone you like in the 6-hole it makes it easier ... At the end of the day theyve been trained to think a certain way. I get it .I totally get it. ' ' '
