First proper batsman down. Sorry, don't rate Masood.

Surprised how much England are favoured by the bookies- I have put a fiver each on Pakistan to win this test (7/2) and the series (5/1!)
I think it's 50:50 really, stronger more experienced team vs home advantage

Jake Ball has his first Test wicket, not that he'd get it after the decisions get tightened up. Still, they all count.

Debut wicket for ball, but not a very good decision from the umpire.

Well made fifty for Misbah.
Edit: Fantastic hundred for Misbah and even better celebration.

Good day for Pakistan, and especially for Misbah. One of the most impressive personalities in world cricket and a leader of men.

I like Misbah, but he is a bit of a **** on the whole time-wasting front. Not that England can really complain given their over-rate.
Good day for Woakes also, Test-best figures and the only genuinely threatening bowler, I felt. Little bit of "I told you so" there for him. And for George Dobell.

Delighted to see Woakes beginning to prove himself at test level. I like Misbah too so it was nice to see him notch up a ton at Lord's, he certainly deserves it. However, if he could get out promptly tomorrow it'd be nice.

Misbah makes merry and Asad Shafiq continues to show he is the best No.6 in the business.

Five-for for Woakes-o. Prepare for shots.
Sorry, six-for.

Fantastic for Woakes and Vince actually took a catch. Great scenes.

Now watch Amir get none as England are bowled out for 200.
