Have your say on England men this summer

    Over the summer, Ollie Robinson has had 28 wickets with an average of 7.8, bowling 100 overs. Only three players in Test history have had a season average beneath ten whilst bowling over 100 overs in England.

  2. Pak 95-2published at 25 overs

    Joe Root goes up to Theo Wylie at the end of the over to make sure he's alright. He puts an arm around him and pats him on the back. A lovely touch.

    It is one of those weird things about cricket that Englahd have two subfielders on - a 21-year-old and a 20-year-old, neither of whom are even regulars for their county.

    That was a tough chance. It is a hard job coming on as a sub fielder.

  4. dropped catch

    Ah. Down.

    Shan Masood slices to backward point but the catch goes down. It's 20-year-old sub fielder Theo Wylie. That can't be a good feeling.

  5. Pak 90-2published at 24 overs

    I've been thinking about this, Butters. I do think he's been unlucky. He did get five wickets against New Zealand at Lord's.

    No joy in his first over.

    England's bowling attack has been excellent... But do we need to talk about Gus Atkinson? Just one wicket in the series so far. Has he just been unlucky?

    Butters, Liverpool

    Gus Atkinson is on for his first bowl of the day. Somehow he still only has one wicket in the series.

    It's been a good start from Pakistan, they're showing some spirit.

  9. Pak 89-2published at 23 overs

    Azan Awias drives Josh Tongue through the covers with a flourish. If there has been a positive for Pakistan amid the mess around it, it has probably been 21-year-old Awais.

    Pakistan have batted over 30 minutes without losing a wicket. We are BACK!

    Junaid, Leeds

    Didn’t we get India 0 for 2 last year at Old Trafford and they got over 400 for 4 and got a draw... Just saying.

    Mark, Doncaster

  11. Pak 83-2published at 22.2 overs

    Jofra Archer has just tried Stuart Broad's bail trick which tells you how it is going for England but also suggests something about how the series has gone as a whole. 45 minutes feels like a lifetime.

  12. Pak 77-2published at 22 overs

    Trail by 243

    England have Warwickshire 19-year-old Tazeem Ali on as sub fielder and he's right into the action. Azan Awais pushes into the leg side and it would have been close had Tazeem's throw hit.

    Instead Awais survives but will have to continue with a muddy jumper.

    This isn't a bad thing for England. They're having to work a bit harder here. We know that there's harder challenges ahead, South Africa, Bangladesh. It's not coming as easy as it did in the first innings.

  14. Pak 76-2published at 21 overs

    Would you believe it? One ball after Joe Root moves Ben Duckett from third slip to leg slip, the ball flies in the first of those positions off the edge of Shan Masood's bat.

    Root turns away in dismay.

    One over, two wickets, no runs - Robinson starts with a bang

    The average score for Pakistan before the fall of the second wicket in this series is 9.3 for two. It's the worst such figure by any team in a Test series in more than one match in the history of Test cricket. A total of 56 runs for their opening stand and second wicket stands across the six innings of this series.

  16. Pak 67-2published at 20 overs

    Awais 32, Masood 29

    After another over along a similar theme with Ollie Robinson failing to find any movement through the air, Josh Tongue is coming on to provide a bit of ooomph.

    Who was expecting Pakistan to be five down by now?

    Average Swing - first five overs of the day:

    • Day 2 - 0.85°
    • Day 3 - 0.55°
  18. Pak 67-2published at 19 overs

    I'm intrigued to see which of the batters Max mentions makes it into England's XI for the first Test in South Africa. There's still Jacob Bethell in the picture, remember.

    Jofra Archer is revving it up but Azan Awais continues to play it OK, as he has for much of this series in fairness.

    I strongly disagree with George, London (11:08) regarding the poor quality of cricket against Pakistan. England have done everything (besides getting big individual scores) right against a lacklustre opponent. However, we have developed a top tier bowling attack and have found some good batters in Gay, Cox and Lawrence.

    Max, Devon

    Looking back in five years this will be remembered as a good summer due to what looks like it will become an established bowling unit, even if we lost to a New Zealand side that lost their captain unexpectedly. Overall 6/10

    Ollie Robinson appeals for a wicketImage source, PA Media

    Joe Root's hands go over his mouth as Ollie Robinson's twice goes close to the breakthrough with his probing line outside off stump. There's an appeal for lbw too but consensus seems to be it would be sliding down to miss leg stump. It was certainly high.
