Only on Cricinfo, not watching a live stream.

Yeah, not too bad - good to see few go down. We really should be winning this series.

same here- only on Cricinfo whilst working!

don't blame Pakistan for batting first after the last test, but yes we should be winning...

Well, this would seem to be a little less of a snooze fest, Pak at 370/8. England picking up wickets fairly regularly. Though to be fair hitting catches to Jimmy A is always a bad idea, ideally you want to give chances to Bell....

Hopefully we can move the game on from here and push for a result.

Still 400 odd is not exactly to be sniffed at. Will we be able to get past that? I'm not so sure on a wicket doing a bit more than last week.

378 all out - result. Good performance with the ball this morning, overnight I thought we might be looking at 450 plus.

Rather be chasing 378 than what we had last week. See how we go now. Don't think Cook will be grinding out another 3 day double century.

Wouldn't be surprised if his feet are still like lead after that.

105 - 2 nearly four an over - Chef closing in on 10,000 test runs.

What could possibly go wrong

It's gone from bad to terrible.

It's dumb to lose a test match in a session, but we appear to be losing this one this morning.

Shocking to see another collapse. Does another failure by Buttler start to question his place with baristow playing well?
