The partnership was approaching 100, then I look again and there's another 70 runs.

Pakistan can't stop this without triggering a collapse...

England treating this as batting practice. Score a 100 then get out and give someone else a go.

If Brook gets there, might be the fastest debut ton ever. Possible a tail ender has thrashed one faster.

Brook doesn't quite get England's fastest ton, but ne early. 500 in a day for the first time ever.

Madness.

THe bowling I saw was poor but the pitch was unacceptably flat. These types of pitch should be marked as poor. That said the batting of Pope and Brooks was really good.

3 wickets fall quickly on day 2, but another 70 runs on the board. Maybe luck running out a bit.

Maybe a flat pitch, but the game moving quickly.

Going to be tough for the England spinners, I think.

Thought that this was delayed, so forgot about it. England's score (and rate scored at) is pretty mindblowing, but not having seen a single ball, my assumption is they must be playing on a road???

Zahid Mahmood, 4-235 on his debut! Seven an over...

Krejza-esque.

Might England be in trouble by not having batted time here. If it is a highway to bat on they could well be in the fields for over 2 days plus. Scoring quickly was spectacular but I'm guessing Pakistan will now just be about batting time.

Pakistan responding with near 200-0

I guess that removes any doubt about the road qualities of the pitch
