Really looking forward to this test.
Pakistan's bowlers will be a real challenge for the England batting line up.

1st Test Old Trafford
Pakistan won the toss & elected to bat
Pakistan 121-1 (41.1 overs) Rain stopped play
A wicket apiece for Archer & Woakes before lunch, followed by an unbroken 3rd wicket partnership between opener Shan Masood 45 no & Baber Azam 52 no.

Pakistan 139-2 (49 overs) Close Masood 46 no Azam 69 no
Bad light forced Root to bowl himself & Bess, but eventually deteriorated despite the slow bowlers being used.

Lunch Day 2
Pakistan 187-5 (75 overs)
It took a decent ball from Anderson to dismiss the classy Barbar Azam for 69. Masood escaped a close lbw call from Broad, but he has battled well in the mold of an old-fashioned opener, leaving the ball well, defending the good balls & putting away anything loose. England bowlers game very little away & have a 2nd new ball available in 5 overs. I would expect Shadab to play some shots if he gets in.

Pakistan all out 326.

Pakistan 326 (109.3 overs) Masood 156 Babar 69 Shadab 45 Broad 3-54 Archer 3-59
England 92-4 (28 overs) Pope 46 no Abbas 2-24
Same story for England in the middle session. Bowl 5 overs of spin up to the 2nd new ball & gave easy runs. Masood & Shadab added 105 for the 6th wicket. Pakistan's exciting bowlers had England in trouble at 12-3, before Root & Popo added 50. Root tried to cut a ball that was to close to him off the bowling of Yasir Shah & the keeper Rizwan took an excellent catch. Pakistan well on top.

Butler is proving to be a liablity behind the stumps. 3 missed chances which cost at least 150 runs.
We need to bring in a new keeper so Butler has to prove himself as a top 5 batsman or he's out.
