... DAY 3, SESSION 2 ...
Pakistan have fought back well! This session actually has been a session of fightbacks! First it was England, after being dominated in the first session, their pacers came out all guns blazing and got three early wickets. Also, three big ones, Rizwan, Babar and Abdullah Shafique! All three were castled and it was the pacers who got all three of them. However, since then, it has been all Pakistan. Saud Shakeel and Imam-ul-Haq have played positively and added just over 50. However, Pakistan still need a lot and they will need these two to continue. England on the other hand, will hope to replicate what they did after the Lunch break. An interesting session awaits.
