    Sorry chaps, know it isn't related to the England game today but gutted to hear that Michael Carberry has been diagnosed with cancer. Everything crossed for him...

    5 for Woakes.

    310/7.

    Shocking ball, short and wide, slapped straight to point.

    Bonus.

    6 for Woakes.

    Absolute jaffer.

    Wahab Riaz gone for a duck second ball.

    The ball before he bowls an out swinger that beats the edge and then bowls a booming inswinger that flattens the stumps.

    Anderson-like.

    310/8.

    Mohammad Amir comes to the crease...

    He was the guy bowling no balls in the spot fixing thing a few years ago. The booing is to be expected but a shame, he's done his time.

    Just googled it. Dec was at the game where he was cheating. Served almost a 5 year ban and returned to playing March 2010. Got a more lenient sentence than butt and the other fella.

    Broad bowls Misbah with one that nips back.

    Broad has been excellent this morning.

    Well batted Misbah.

    You couldn't hear any boos on TV. Just clapping.

    In the ground there was an initial reasonably loud boo but then clapping.

    It shows the main current difference between England and most other countries, in that our tail is incredibly strong with the bat, whereas Pakistan's bowlers are far more limited

    In the Sri Lankan Test, the pitch seemed to gain pace after being a bit slow on the first day
