PAK vs ENG, 3rd Test Day 2 Live
Now pakistan's first aim will be to knock this off with losing a wicket and then bat long, still lot of time in the game and Pakistan would want to give England a big total. England on the other hand, will hope to take a wicket or two before Stumps.
Pakistan will be disappointing at conceding the lead! Their spinners bowled really well to begin with to dismiss the top five quickly but once the ball got really soft, it was hard work for them, they though even failed to contain the runs when Brook and Foakes were batting. However, they will still be happy with not letting the visitors run away with the game. Nauman Ali was the pick , Abrar Ahmed was good and Mohammad Wasim impressed on his debut.
A really good batting effort from England and they have Harry Brook and Ben Foakes to thank! A few of their top order batters got off to starts but did not make it could. They were struggling at one time when Stokes was run. They were trailing by over 150 but these two put on a brilliant 100-plus run stand. Brook scored a ton and Foakes scored a fine fifty. Brook fell but Foakes continued. Along with the tail and with a lot of help from Wood, he took his side past Pakistan's total. England will be very happy with where they are placed in the game despite it being just a slender lead.
