OUT! Just four balls for Shaheen Afridi and he is in the wickets column. Rory Burns edges it to second slip. First time it fell short, not this time. Rory Burns c Shafiq b Shaheen Afridi 0(4)

Pakistan decide to continue batting. And all Mohammad Rizwan could get from the day's opening over is a single. He tried to attack James Anderson on the first ball but didn't come off the way he would have wanted to.

Earlier in the match, Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first. The decision didn’t prove to be great one as the visitors kept losing wickets at regular intervals. Veteran duo of James Anderson and Stuart Broad breathed fire with the red cherry and put the home team on the driver’s seat. Nevertheless, Abid Ali (60), Babar Azam (47) and Mohammad Rizwan (60*) rose to the occasion and helped their side cross the 200-run mark.

In fact, Rizwan is still present in the cease and will like to accumulate maximum runs before the last wicket falls. On the other hand, the England bowlers would like to claim the remaining wicket as soon as possible. Well, Joe Root and Co might seem to be in a better position. However, facing the Pakistan pacers under overcast conditions will not be easy.
England Playing XI: Rory Burns, Dominic Sibley, Zak Crawley, Joe Root (C), Ollie Pope, Jos Buttler (WK), Chris Woakes, Sam Curran, Dominic Bess, Stuart Broad, James Anderson
