[mikesiva]

Usman strikes! Cox out for 73.

All 3 reviews wasted by the England batsmen horror show with the DRS, Pakistan back in the game

Shahzad strikes! Root out for 66.

If I am England I am making a complaint about that wicket.

I am pretty sure the Pakistan fielders didn't appeal for the edge, they seemed to let a bit of exasperated groan out, and the umpire just threw his finger up. Its the right call, but did Pakistan even appeal?

And then Cox, thinking Pakistan didn't think it was out, reviews it and loses a review.

Never seen that in a test match

Weird how the game can change with a wicket. The first one spun a long way, this one moved from the seam a long way...

Root out...

As I said, I dont blame Cox because Pakistan didn't seem to think he'd hit it..... Root channelling Duckett though, Ben reviewed one last night that missed the edge by a foot, and was hitting middle stump halfway up... prat.

Dan Lawrence wont get an easier opportunity not to look rubbish than this. Will he take it?

[sussexpob]

Brook dropped on 1... more importantly though, in trying to catch it Agha has cut open his finger and its bleeding ....

Huge moment for this series if he's badly injured it.

Ali Usman is bowling beautifully got his pace and length spot on and it is turning

[andy]

Tea time 239-4 leading by 68

[Arthur Crabtree]

England poised to get a big lead.

Wonder if they are concerned about the lack of spin in their attack.

[andy]

Probably not given how poorly the Pakistan top order played Robinson yesterday....forecast iffy all 5 days so think seamers will have enough to work with

[andy]

Salman Ali Agha is back on the field but at mid on and not in the cordon

[andy]

Expected more from Khurram Shahzad especially in these conditions...good seamer always gets good movement but just can't string 2 balls together in the same place...his wicket was a beauty just can't repeat it unfortunately...Pak seamers zero control

[andy]

Agha back at slip for the spinner....awful review from Pakistan...the DRS calls from both teams have been dire so far this test
