England are 180-5.
AT LUNCH ON DAY ONE!
180 runs in the first session!
The pitch is turning massively and Pakistan have a mystery spinner who has only played a few First Class matches.
Mike Atherton said "In our era we might have played played fairly safely and got 80 here, still lost 5 wickets, and been in a hole."
Stuart Broad is in the studio (Cosplaying as a trendy young Evanhelical Curate, bizarrely) and telling some incredible things about Brendon McCullum:
"In the Trent Bridge Test v New Zealand on Day 5 at tea, we needed something like 170 in the session, and he said "I'm not interested in a draw. Don't play for a draw. Any of you, all the way down to Number 11. Just try and hit every ball for 4.... and then first ball after tea, Bairstow got a bouncer and ducked it, and Stokesy said to him "What are you doing? Hit it for 6!" And then Matthew Henry didn't have anywhere to go."
Earlier in the same match McCullum told Broad to pad up as Nightwatchman "Because the crowd has gone quiet and you're a local boy, so go out there and try and hit the first ball for 6!"
Incredible! |  | | |  |

I saw England were five down at lunch, sighed, and then looked at the runs scored. That's this morning sorted anyway.
214/5 from 40.2 overs now. |  |

229/6. Abrar Ahmed, on debut, has now taken England's first six wickets.
A star is born? |  |

Unfortunately, we don't have Livingstone in this match, to bowl leg spin. |  |

Booooo!!!!!!
Robinson has gone and put up a dolly and the young man's 10 for goes up in smoke.
Abrar still has 7 on debut, and don't bet against more. He is bowling such beautiful lines- his wicket taking balls just clipping off stump.
Jack Leach striding out to show them who is Boss Spinner. | | | |

Rather sums up England's approach - the no. 10 is bowled attempting a reverse sweep off his first ball! | |

Then the no. 11 reverse sweeps a 4 off his second ball. | |

That last wicket partnership ahs dragged the score back towards something respectable, still a bit light though.
Guess the next innings will be telling, a small deficit and England are still in this. 450+ runs and they probably aren't. | |
