Pakistan all out in 35 overs. I suppose England's batting is an unknown quantity at this level.

Salt out for seven. Probably struggling to believe where he finds himself.

easy in the end

Considering he's played about 10 times for Sussex in half a decade of 50 over cricket, it has to go down as one of the most bizarre selections in recent history.

This series seems utter pointless. A half ar*ed Pakistan team piloted in cold with zero prep v an England Z team

TV contracts are worth bastardising everything for, including ripping players out of county sides mid match at the most crucial part of the championship season

as is the pursuit of filthy lucre, of course

Salt and Vince are caning Pakistan.

But it all went a bit wrong. Not the usual reliable names down the order to step up either.

With Gregory gone, England will do well to bat the overs.

Still, given Pakistan's batting in the last game, they might not need many.

England unchanged I think.

Pakistan proving as substantial an opposition as SL.

Pakistan going to win this one though, unless Vince pulls off a miracle.

50 partnership for Vince and Gregory. It's back on.

Hundred partnership in 17 overs. England back on top.

Vincable out for 102. Game goes back into the pot.

Apparently there are some T20s being played...
