One more wicket and they’ll send out Cook, which I presume will be game over. Interesting statistical first if he does come out, I don’t think he’s ever batted below 3 before.
Very impressive performance from England, especially where the wicket didn’t encourage a result. Second test on Thursday in Dubai and by all accounts, will be a better strip for turn and swing.
This is a more interesting test – early breakthroughs yesterday but then Pakistan fought back. England bowl well this morning to dismiss for 378, Pakistan get early breakthroughs, England fight back. Nicely poised.
