  1. Not out

    Eng 26-2

    No, not this time.

    It's pad first but impact is outside the line.

    Joe Root will not depart for what would have been a two-ball duck.

  2. Ramiz Raja
    Former Pakistan captain on Test Match Special

    Well, Pakistan have been in good DRS form. It did feel like bat first.

    Pakistan need to attack in the first hour or so. Let England feel the pressure of being two wickets down.

  3. Pakistan review

    And another?!

    New batter Joe Root is hit around the knee roll by Muhammad Abbas, with perhaps a hint of willow in there.

    The bowler and all the slip cordon go up hard and Babar Azam, having taken his time to make a decision, asks for a review.

  4. Ramiz Raja
    Former Pakistan captain on Test Match Special

    That's the problem Muhammad Abbas never allows you to settle in.

    Wow. Overturned. A good delivery from Mohammad Abbas. Ben Duckett is shaking his head.

    WICKET

    Duckett lbw b Abbas 17 (Eng 26-2)

    Gone!

    All reds on the ball-tracking and Ben Duckett is sent on his way, having been struck on the back pad, with the delivery predicted to hit the top of off stump.

    It's a second wicket for Muhammad Abbas - he's sent both England openers packing.

  7. Pakistan review

    Muhammad Abbas goes up with an appeal - he thinks he's trapped Ben Duckett lbw!

    Nothing from the umpire - Pakistan are going to take a look here.

  8. How's stat?!

    Andy Zaltzman
    Test Match Special statistician

    The seam bowling has been a long-standing problem for Pakistan.

    Tests from 2022, all their seamers averaged just over 36.

    That is the worst seam bowling average out of the nine regular Test playing teams.

  9. Ramiz Raja
    Former Pakistan captain on Test Match Special

    England have to start again. This is a great set-up now for Pakistan.

  10. Eng 25-1

    Jordan Cox comes in at three, but spends his first over at the non-striker's end.

    Ben Duckett faces all six balls from Khurram Shahzad and drives another four through the covers to move to 17.

    Shahzad took three wickets in his one innings at Headingley but was expensive, conceding 133 runs from his 21.5 overs.

    Superman without the cape.

    Emilio Gay trying to survive by managing those bowls outside the off stump, but this one was taken brilliantly behind the stumps.

    A keeper's delight. A wonderful catch.

  12. wicket

    WICKET

    Gay c Rizwan b Abbas 8 (Eng 21-1)

    Gay goes after Rizwan's stunning 'Superman' catch

    Taken down the leg side!

    Ben Duckett takes a first-ball single into the covers, meaning Emilio Gay faces Muhammad Abbas for the first time.

    The right-arm seamer switches back to bowling over the wicket halfway through the over and beats the bat of Gay, before drawing a tickle down the leg side from the final ball of the over.

    It's a good take by Muhammad Rizwan, diving a good distance to complete the catch.

  13. Eng 20-0

    The England openers are dealing only in fours.

    Emilio Gay adds the fifth of the innings, getting up on his toes to crack Khurram Shahzad through point.

  14. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC Chief Cricket Commentator on Test Match Special

    Ben Duckett plays and misses again. The conditions are perfect for new-ball bowling.

  15. Eng 16-0

    Two fours for Ben Duckett!

    Muhammad Abbas beats the bat of the England opener with his first ball, but Duckett comes back to find the ropes twice in the over.

    A drive heads through the covers before a short ball is cut to the fence at point.

  16. How's stat?!

    Pakistan will have fond memories of their record at Lord's.

    In their last 10 Tests here going back to 1982, they've won five matches, drawn three and lost only on two occasions. This includes a loss in neutral game here against Australia in 2010.

    In the last 45 years here at Lord's, only South Africa (75%, six wins out eight) & Australia (62%, eight wins out of 13) have a better win percentage than Pakistan's 50%.

  17. Eng 8-0

    After Ben Duckett faced all of the first over, Emilio Gay gets his chance as Khurram Shahzad bowls from the Pavilion End.

    He takes all six balls from the right-arm seamer, who bowls round the wicket to the left-handed Gay.

    Shahzad's fourth ball is a half volley and Gay tucks in, picking up the match's first four through the covers.

    Former England spinner on Test Match Special

    It is difficult to gauge where to stand, but I also think you have to take into consideration the batsmen at times.

    You feel that was a catching opportunity.

  19. Jonathan Agnew

    Edged from Ben Duckett, but it doesn't carry. It did land comfortably in front of the fielder then. A stroke of luck for Duckett.

  20. Eng 4-0

    Edged, but well short of the slips!

    Muhammad Abbas has early movement bowling to Ben Duckett, angling a delivery past the bat of the left-handed Ben Duckett and then drawing the edge from the following ball.

    Duckett survives and the ball breaks through the slips for two, doubling his score after he took a couple in the covers off the second delivery of the match.
