That was a length delivery - outside off, nipped in and Khurram Shahzad pushed at it to edge it.

Josh Tongue to Salman Agha, out Lbw!! Salman has to go. It looked a little high in real time. The ball landed on a length - bent in big and Salman Agha was trapped on the front foot. The ball thudded him a little high on the knee roll but the ball tracker showed it was crashing into the leg pole. 6th one down. Josh Tongue continues to be on fire. His 8th in the game. He seems hungry for a 10-wicket haul. England have been so clinical. For a moment we thought he was given out caught at gully as the ball lobbed off the pads and the umpire might have thought that there was an edge. But that wasn't to be. It was three reds! Salman Agha lbw b Josh Tongue 4(8) [4s-1]

Josh Tongue to Saud Shakeel, out Caught by Dan Lawrence!! One shot too many! This is unlucky for the batter as well. That fielder was behind square but not too close. Was to the left of the square leg umpire. The batter saw one on the pads - clipped it, the bat face closed and the ball went uppishly. The fielder saw his chance and dived to his right to take it. Saud Shakeel was happy to play his shots and has perished now. Very tame way to get out. You don't get caught at that position too many times. You don't find a fielder there. Credit to Root!

Ali Usman to Dan Lawrence, no run - poor cricket all round. That was a poor shot, a poor delivery and the fielding was poor as well. The batter danced down to a full toss and missed. There was an appeal and amidst that the batter had walked down the track a little too much. Salman at first slip realized it a little late though and tried to have a shy at the batter's end but the keeper was hit as he was busy appealling for the leg before shout. Lot of chaos but the batter survived the review as the impact was outside the line. Once again Pakistan missing out as they failed to seize the moment. But really tough to think how did Lawrence miss connecting on that friendly full toss? Well, we will never know...

Mohammad Ali to Emilio Gay, out Caught by Salman Agha!! Gets the edge and has been taken at second slip. The ball landed on a short of length spot - squared the batter up and Emilio Gay edged it. End of a promising knock. But nipped in the bud. The ball nibbled away after landing and Emilio Gay got opened up like a can of soda. The fielder at second slip pouched it low.

Josh Tongue to Mohammad Rizwan, out Lbw!! Looked a bit high - but he was given out onfield and it just needed to be clipping the bails which it did, ultimately. It curled back in from a length and caught Rizwan on the hop. Was struck a shade outside off, but replays have proven that it was umpire's call.

Josh Tongue to Ali Usman, out Lbw!! That's plumb and two in two for Josh Tongue. Ali Usman wastes a review. It will be tea as well. Tongue will be on a hat-trick when we come back for the post-tea session. With his action and his release - it's always a challenge for the right-handers. You feel as if it is an easy delivery on the pads but Tongue is deceptively quick and this is bowled at 91mph, Ali Usman shuffles across and flicks and misses, was full on middle and leg. Since he shuffled across, he had to get bat on it, but didn't and that's an easy call for Chris Gaffaney. Three reds and the players go back inside. Tongue was so sure that it was out as he almost went on a celebrappeal before turning back to appeal to the ump. Ali Usman lbw b Josh Tongue 0(1)
Josh Tongue to Salman Agha, out Bowled!! Josh Tongue strikes. Salman Agha is surprised and wants to have a look at the big screen for the replay. It's bowled from wide of the crease and Agha has played outside the line of that too much. He gets forward to drive - leaves a slight gap between bat and ball, the ball nips back in and hits the top of off-stump. Superb delivery and one that Josh Tongue often produces with his action. Definite seam movement and Agha didn't play that well. He has a that's too good for me expression on his face as he looks at Mohammad Rizwan. Salman Agha b Josh Tongue 21(29) [4s-4]

Ollie Robinson to Abdullah Shafique, out Bowled!! What a bowler Ollie Robinson is. Especially at home. He planted the seed of doubt in Abdullah Shafique's mind with all those scrambled-seam deliveries. Now he bowls the rip-roaring inswinger and Shafique is cleaned up. It's a fine nipbacker - past the back foot block and beating the inside-edge to land on top of middle-stump. You need a special skill to do what Robinson does at his pace. Rightly he is delighted. Shafique who was Pakistan's best batter on view today had no clue to a cracker. Also Jamie Smith standing up played a part in the dismissal as Shafique was not allowed to stand outside his crease.

Ollie Robinson to Saud Shakeel, out Lbw!! Saud Shakeel runs out of time and Chris Gaffaney sends him on his way. Shakeel wanted to review but he spent too long discussing it with Abdullah Shafique. This looks a tad high - so we will have to wait for ball-tracking. Shakeel shuffles across and plonks his front pad across - the bat has to come around it and he misses the nipbacker. Hit above the kneeroll and Allahudien Paleker has a good long look before raising the finger. A loud appeal and Ollie Robinson is thrilled the finger went up. The ball-tracking is in and it is going over the stumps. A couple of support staff in the Pakistan camp have seen that ball-tracking and shake their heads. Good spot by Gaffeney about the clock and had Shakeel reviewed it, he would've been still there. Struck in line but too high and even to the naked eye it looked high. Robinson closes his eyes as he roars in celebration. Shakeel was so busy in explaining to Shafique where the ball hit him, that neither batter kept an eye on the clock. Saud Shakeel lbw b Ollie Robinson 5(25) [4s-1]

This is full outside off - the sucker delivery, Imam-ul-Haq gets forward to drive and the thick outside-edge is found. It's going low and to the left of Brook who shows great hands to snaffle it. The partnership is broken. Was on the 7th or 8th stump line and Imam-ul-Haq could've left that. That's why he was so disappointed. Also all the hard work done in building an innings is thrown away to a poor shot. Imam c Harry Brook b Josh Tongue 42(74) [4s-6]
