England vs Pakistan 1st Test Day 3 Live Score Updates

Usman shines as Pakistan's bowlers struggle - Pakistan found it difficult to sustain pressure as England kept finding partnerships and scoring opportunities, with some untidy bowling and fielding adding to their problems, most notably Salman Agha dropping Brook on 1, a miss that proved costly. Ali Usman was the big exception, dragging Pakistan back into the contest with a maiden Test five-for, finishing with an impressive 5/95. Mohammad Abbas managed just one wicket, while Mohammad Ali and Khurram Shahzad struggled for consistency, although the latter did manage to wrap things up with a three-fer. The pacers otherwise failed to consistently trouble the hosts, leaving Pakistan with a tough task ahead. Their batters will need a vastly improved effort if they are to avoid an innings defeat. Join us in a bit for Pakistan's second innings.

England build commanding advantage - England have added 43 runs to their overnight score, moving to 409 and stretching their lead to 238. Joe Root and Jordan Cox laid the platform with a 150-run partnership, both passing fifty before falling short of three figures. Harry Brook then took the attack to Pakistan with a rapid 91 off 93, putting on 120 with Dan Lawrence, who also made a brisk 51. The missed hundreds may be a slight frustration, but four substantial contributions have put England firmly in control of the game.
