A quite staggering day's cricket ended with the tourists on the brink of victory. Joe Root continued his imperious innings before finally being dismissed LBW by Agha Salman for 262. Harry Brook kept going though and made it passed 300. Shan Masood then caught him off the bowling of Saim Ayub. The exhausted batter departed for 317. The tail came in with a licence to hit the ball before Ollie Pope declared on 823/7, the fourth-highest score ever in Test cricket.
The scoreboard pressure from that total was obviously immense and two days in the field had taken it out of the Pakistani players. Abdullah Shafique lost his off stump to Chris Woakes with the first ball of his side's second innings and things didn't get much better from there. The hosts ended the day no 152/6. Gus Atkinson and Brydon Carse have two wickets apiece, with Jack Leach also getting one. Their strong first innings performance means Pakistan trail by only 115 runs, but with the top-order out already getting anywhere near that looks a long way off. A landmark England victory seems imminent.
Here's how to watch every ball of the Pakistan vs England 1st Test live stream from anywhere.
