Here’s Ali Martin’s report from Rawalpindi:

So there we go: it turns out that, wondrous though England were yesterday, Pakistan can also bat a bit. It’s also possible that pace is pace and England have none, that their spinners don’t do that much spinning, that the pitch is flat. Still, there was a hint of reverse towards the end – only a hint but you never know – so join us tomorrow to see how we go. Thanks all for your company and comments –ta-ra.
