Excellent from Rehan Ahmed this morning, three wickets and England arguably now on top

Yep. Now if he could just get Shakeel out.

Sky, and perhaps even the BBC for that circus, would do well to get Urooj Mumtaz on their commentary teams. Especially for the womens game. Brain like livewire.

Sad to see how empty the stadium is. Doesn't feel great for the future of test cricket.
Is there any point when the ball is struggling to get over ankle height in the first session on the first day of a Test match?

Until Pakistan are able to produce proper Test pitches the ICC should be banning them from hosting Test matches.

Just to hopefully put the wicket keeper thing to bed. Smith dropped a straight forward chance off Saud when he was on 26. He now has a big ton now. I don't think Foakes would have missed that.

I gather Jordan Cox is lined up to take the gloves for the New Zealand series, as Smith will be at home on paternity leave.

Game over. Three spinners an error?
Might be different if we had Wood available or somebody of that ilk who offers something particularly different, but I'm not sure a few overs of 80ish mph seam bowling would achieve much in this situation.

I don't think Pakistan bowled a single over with a seamer did they?
