00:10♪♪
00:20♪♪
00:30A very warm welcome once again to the Multan Cricket Stadium
00:34here for day two of the first test between England and Pakistan.
00:39Saud Shaqeel and Naseem Shah, the two men walk out into the middle
00:43with Pakistan at 328 for four.
00:47England bowlers hopefully well rested after a hard toil.
00:50On day one, they'll come out.
00:52It's one apiece to leach and walks with Gus Atkinson
00:55will start the day with two wickets.
00:58Let's join the action now here on day two.
01:09It is one of those discussions that comes around every time
01:12and there are hardliners say there's no way you should have a night watch.
01:15Nice play by the fellow called Jonathan Agnew.
01:20Goes wide again now. Will that be upheld from that angle?
01:23That's the other thing that umpire will have to consider
01:26when leg before shout is made.
01:32Putting in demanding.
01:33Yeah, I think the main thing is if you're not on strike.
01:38And they were not alarmed at all.
01:41Stepping out of the crease as well.
01:44Still few heavyweights left in the cast
01:47next to bat, Rizwan and Salman Ali Agha.
01:51Amir Jamal can bat as well.
01:56Yeah, not going hard after that one.
01:58Just dropping his wrist, making sure that
02:00even if there was an edge, it didn't carry,
02:02which was a good thing.
02:04Making sure that even if there was an edge, it didn't carry,
02:07which was the end result on that occasion.
02:14What they like to clean up.
02:15Nassim Shah as quickly as possible.
02:23Gets an edge, gets some runs as well.
02:25Probably four. It's the new ball.
02:27May just carry to the fence. It does.
02:30So the frustration continues for England.
02:33Nassim Shah is still hanging in there.
02:43Such a contrast, isn't there?
02:45Watching Nassim Shah at one end
02:47and Saoud Shaqeel at the other.
02:51Who've been performing very well.
02:53One is Saoud Shaqeel.
02:56The other one from Sri Lanka, Kamendu Mendes,
02:58in no time, after his debut, got 2,000 runs.
03:04Oh!
03:13Oh, hits him. Where's one?
03:17Hit him right on the helmet.
03:22The ball just doesn't get up and then you've got nowhere to go.
03:25That's a nasty blow.
03:27He looks OK, thankfully.
03:30But there was a bouncer earlier on,
03:32very early in the day, when he looked discomfited.
03:36So you can see why England want to go at this line of attack now.
03:42Down the track, hits it over the top.
03:44Nassim likes it and it's gone all the way.
03:51Well, if he's going to get peppered at one end from Gus Atkinson,
03:55he's probably saying to himself,
03:57I'm going to enjoy my time against Shoaib Bashir,
04:00which will open up the opportunity for Bashir,
04:02who, in the English summer, took a five-wicket haul
04:06in a game against West Indies at Trent Bridge.
04:08And that was on the back of some very fast bowling at the other end.
04:14Oh, sweep shot and that'll race away to the fence.
04:16A very composed, a very structured innings from Saoud Shaqeel yet again.
04:21Gets to his seventh Test Match 50.
04:25Likes playing against England, his fifth here.
04:28And also in Multan.
04:30Third one in Multan.
04:32Saoud Shaqeel carries on.
04:37Down the pitch.
04:38Way, way over deep mid-wicket.
04:41Will it go all the way? It does.
04:47Just looking at if this works down.
04:48Long off and he's in a slightly different position than yesterday.
04:51Off the fence.
04:52But this is well over Long on.
04:54It's a lovely swing of the bat.
04:56And it is fully committed.
05:00Does come down and he does show him that he can go in to out
05:04over the offside.
05:05He's got that shot in his repertoire.
05:09And the best for me by a distance.
05:11That's a wonderful shot.
05:12Encouraged to play it because Pope has brought Chris Wokes up
05:15from Long off into the circle.
05:18Oh, hold the pose.
05:20That's fantastic.
05:27It works.
05:28Eventually they get Nassim Shah.
05:30It's a edge into leg slip and Harry Brook obliges.
05:34Brydon Karrs now has his first international test wicket.
05:38It took a long time, but England now have five.
05:41When he got an LBW given against Sean Massoud,
05:44but was then overturned.
05:46So he's had a long wait to pick up his first test wicket.
05:49A moment that he would have dreamt about.
05:53Maybe he might have hoped for a slightly better batter
05:57than Nassim Shah for his maiden wicket,
05:59but he'll take whatever he can get.
06:03Oh!
06:05That sweeps well and does pierce the gap.
06:08There were two men stationed behind square on the left side.
06:11So does well to pick up the boundary to close.
06:13Leach is over.
06:16Catch it.
06:18That's another one gone.
06:19As simple as you like.
06:21Leach has two.
06:22And Rizwan walks back for naught.
06:25He was about a halfway back and between them Leach and Pope.
06:28Motion Wokes in.
06:30Get tight on the one.
06:32That encouraged Rizwan to come down.
06:35Got too close to the ball.
06:36So he couldn't get the elevation that he wanted.
06:40And offered a simple catch to Chris Wokes.
06:43So a second for England this morning.
06:44And Pakistan not yet out of sight.
06:47They're 393 for six now.
06:49With Rizwan a big wicket to fall.
06:55He does take it on.
06:57And he takes it on quite well.
06:59And he'll pick up a boundary.
07:00Leading down the left side has just helped on its way.
07:05And obviously he'll get underneath it.
07:07He won't want to keep it down.
07:15No damage done.
07:17For Pakistan that is.
07:19112 overs done.
07:22And it will be lunch at Pakistan.
07:24397 for six.
07:30A slightly subdued session one here on day two for Pakistan.
07:33England however picking up the two wickets.
07:36Pakistan scoring it.
07:37Also dropping to 2.65.
07:39The two wickets to fall.
07:40That of Naseem Shah for 33.
07:42He had a few good hits out in the middle.
07:44But Rizwan the big wicket went for naught.
07:46Saud Shakeel remains unbeaten at 67.
07:49And will start lunch with Salman Ali Agha.
07:52Pakistan 397 for six.
07:56A couple of wickets more for England in that first session.
07:58Brighton cast with his first international test wicket.
08:01That of Naseem Shah.
08:02And Jack Leach picked up Mohammad Rizwan to have two to his name.
08:07Action begins here post-lunch on day two.
08:16Tossed up. Beautiful start.
08:17Into out. Nice way to get off the mark.
08:21400 up for Pakistan.
08:26He's a positive player.
08:28Salman Ali Agha.
08:32He's a very competent batsman against the spin.
08:36Saw a bit of flight.
08:37Got to the pitch of the ball.
08:38And knew where the gap was.
08:42And he's off the mark.
08:47My point has always been that he allows that pressure to be released
08:50when the men are in the deep.
08:52Unnecessarily.
08:53That's a great shot.
08:54That's someone taking advantage of that.
08:57And saying yes I'm prepared to take the risk.
09:00You contrast that with Rizwan's dismissal.
09:04And you take your pick.
09:05But this is beautifully struck.
09:11Maybe a sign.
09:12They just had a chat at lunchtime.
09:14And said look we can't plod along.
09:16We need to get 20 wickets out there.
09:22Hard sweep.
09:23And there's no one out there.
09:24Definite signs.
09:26After lunch.
09:27That Salman's going to play his shots.
09:29Particularly against leech and spin.
09:34Every shot he's played so far against leech has been high quality.
09:38With the sweep shots into the field as it's set.
09:42Just has to make sure of course he doesn't get it behind square.
09:48Goes again.
09:49There's no one on the leg side.
09:51Wojcic tries to get round.
09:53And there is no doubting that one.
09:56It was the bin that was in play.
09:59I have to score.
10:01Volkermaar runs against this baller.
10:03I have to score.
10:05Volkermaar runs against this baller.
10:09As a boxman you have to target one baller in the line up.
10:13And it's Jack Leach for Salman Ali Agha.
10:15He's got plenty already against him.
10:24Well it's a good battle.
10:25And it's a battle that Salman Ali Agha is winning at the moment.
10:30He's injected some acceleration into this innings.
10:34Immediately after lunch tucking into Jack Leach.
10:36Almost cost him his wicket.
10:39Down at long off where Wojcic almost took a brilliant catch.
10:42But he's right on top of the left arm spinner.
10:45Right now.
10:50A beauty.
10:51A beauty from Bashir.
10:53Who has not been at his best in this innings.
10:55But has produced a good one now.
10:57To get rid of Saud Shakeel.
11:00Wonderful line and length coming into pitching on or around.
11:04No not really.
11:05He's not turned the bat face.
11:08That's a very very fine delivery from Shoaib Bashir.
11:12He's played beautifully.
11:13And he's gone for 82.
11:14Pakistan 450 for 7.
11:21Parked away.
11:22Parked away.
11:26Will turn.
11:27Look for 3.
11:31Right in cast to continue.
11:32He did pick up his first wicket.
11:36That of Nassim Shah with that strangle down the left side.
11:41He had a close call which was reviewed by Shan Masood.
11:43Just pitching outside left stump earlier in the day.
11:45Yesterday.
11:49Oh big shout.
11:50Big shout.
11:51And he's been given.
11:53That's been given.
11:54Right in cast.
11:55He has to.
11:58With the immediate effect.
11:59We'll also have a look.
12:00He has reviewed this one.
12:03Original decision is out.
12:05Pitching outside off.
12:06Impact is in line.
12:07Wickets.
12:08Umpire is called.
12:09Kumar will get you back on screen.
12:10You can stay with your original decision.
12:12Of out.
12:14You're on screen.
12:15Kumar Dharmasena again raises his finger.
12:18Just to confirm.
12:19There was hitting the stumps.
12:21Aamir Jamal goes for 7.
12:23Pucks out 4-6-4-3.
12:31Takes it on.
12:33Puts the dancing shoes on.
12:34And times it well.
12:36Salman Ali Agha picks up a boundary to close the over.
12:39Showing intent.
12:40Salman Ali Agha took the right option.
12:42He tried it a couple of times in this over.
12:44But this time around.
12:46He prevailed.
12:49Big shout.
12:50Well, sort of big shout.
12:52It was nearly a big shout.
12:53Then it wasn't a big shout.
12:56Right.
12:57One-fist 50 for Salman Ali Agha.
13:01A little bit of turn.
13:03But he's pushed it away.
13:04That will be the 50.
13:07Comfortable 2.
13:09As it runs away down towards a sort of wide-ish third.
13:14So 51-50.
13:16So 51 for Salman Ali Agha.
13:19He's played very well indeed.
13:20Took the initiative straight after lunch.
13:25Working out how to bat with the lower order.
13:27It's his 8th 50 in Test matches.
13:29His third against England.
13:31And his first in Wiltan.
13:35That's an option.
13:36That's a very, very good option.
13:37With just those two men on the offside.
13:40Bashir had thrown the last one a long way down the left side.
13:43This is just a little bit straighter.
13:45Just straight enough to get the reverse sweep into action.
13:51And that was the option.
13:52To get it on the offside.
13:55A little bit of cricket there.
13:57The reverse sweep is part and parcel of the way you play.
14:05The way you play.
14:12Well that's sweet.
14:14That is very sweet.
14:15One bounce.
14:16Two yards in from the rope over long off.
14:19Bashir just gave him enough room to get the shot in.
14:23He did.
14:24And it was much more controlled because of that reason.
14:26One, to start the over.
14:28He didn't get in a decent balance or position to hit it.
14:31This one.
14:32Look at the balance.
14:35Orthodox sweep gets away.
14:38Placed nicely between the two men in the deep.
14:40And with enough of it to reach the boundary.
14:44He gives chase but had no chance.
14:47Yeah, we saw this earlier.
14:48How low his hands can help.
14:50Horizontal his bat gets for the sweep.
14:52Gets in a great position.
14:53Look at that.
14:54Even though it was full.
14:55It was almost a Yorker.
14:57Because his hands are low and his bat is horizontal.
15:00Gets it right in the middle of the bat.
15:02And sweeps it beautifully away.
15:11Well that's gone.
15:13It's gone into big wide empty space.
15:18Yes another four in quick succession.
15:20One thousand runs now.
15:22Reached by Salman Ali Agha in Test Pass cricket.
15:25Some of the milestone for him.
15:27Test Pass cricket.
15:28Some of the milestone for him.
15:30Just the cleanness of the striking is there to behold.
15:35Goes offside when he comes down the track.
15:38Offside of the ball to be able to access leg side.
15:47It just seems as easy as anything.
15:50Almost wherever the spin or the seam is directed.
15:55He finds a way of finding the boundary.
15:58It seemed a few minutes ago.
15:59We were talking about the 50.
16:01Landmark.
16:03And whether Shaheen Sharafredi will start playing some shots.
16:06He's quickly moved on to 76.
16:08He may be thinking of 100.
16:10Well Shaheen's not had the strike.
16:13He's played it perfectly since lunch.
16:15He's got the tempo of his knock spot on.
16:22Well that's given him the opportunity.
16:23That was just the right length for Shaheen Sharaf.
16:28Just the edge.
16:31This is what he can do so well.
16:39Solid block from Shaheen Sharafredi.
16:41The umpire calls time for tea.
16:45That is another excellent session for the home side.
16:48The side that have lost their last 5 test matches.
16:51And went into this test match lacking confidence.
16:55Well they've shown a lot of skill.
16:57A lot of flair.
17:01Pakistan walk off post lunch with 515 on the board.
17:05With a loss of 8 wickets.
17:07So Shaquille the 7th man to go for 82.
17:10And Amir Jamal also for 7.
17:13A couple of more wickets to England.
17:15A couple of more wickets to England.
17:17As they take 8 off Pakistan.
17:19Who's Brydon Kass.
17:20His second international test wicket.
17:22And Shoaib Bashir with his maiden wicket so far in the series.
17:34Even off late.
17:35First test against Bangladesh.
17:37448 played 565.
17:40And we still got a result.
17:42Credit to Pakistan for making dull cricket into exciting.
17:45Cricket that's lifted hard.
17:49He's been really good with those lofty shots.
17:52Didn't really make it to the fence this time.
17:55But they're not afraid of plucking players that they see have a bit of potential.
18:00A smash into the fence for 4.
18:03He gives himself room.
18:05And he does enough.
18:06Enough to get it over the infield.
18:07All fielders up.
18:09And they are asking him to hit over the top.
18:11And he obliges.
18:15Easier take for Shahin Shalfridi.
18:17This is glorious 6.
18:18This really is massive for him.
18:20Salman Ali Agha yet to...
18:24...take up.
18:25Goes in.
18:27And he's got it.
18:28Salman Ali Agha yet to...
18:31...take up.
18:32Goes two charges at long on and long off.
18:34And he did that so well.
18:38He is quite brilliant.
18:39Especially at the number that he comes out to bat.
18:41The rate at which he scores his runs.
18:43And then the shots that he executes.
18:49Shalfridi goes for a big shot.
18:52Clears the fence for 6.
18:59Pakistan team can bat.
19:02Shahin Shalfridi loves to bat.
19:05And hit the ball a long way.
19:07And does well.
19:09Comes down the track.
19:11Opens up that space to swing through the line.
19:16And he gets 6 as well.
19:20Sweet shot.
19:21Earns him a single.
19:23Probably will earn him a standing ovation at the balcony as well.
19:26This is a tremendous innings.
19:29His third hundred.
19:31Batted beautifully.
19:33Increased the pace.
19:36Played well with the tail.
19:37Played well with Sal Chakir.
19:42It's the ideal strike rate to continue Pakistan's success to this test match.
19:51Yeah, he's certainly been a phenomenal find for Pakistan.
19:54He's been a fantastic player.
19:56The position that he comes in.
19:59And he scores his runs very, very quickly.
20:01Once again, another hundred.
20:02Just of the 108 deliveries.
20:06Fouled him.
20:07Cleaned him up.
20:11A swipe attempted against the line.
20:13And he's been bowled by Leech.
20:15Had to work extremely hard to pick up a scalp.
20:18He's got one.
20:20Salman Ali Abab got to that three figure mark.
20:22And once he did, it didn't take long.
20:25One foot down.
20:26Big swipe across the line.
20:29It's middle halfway up.
20:31And Jack Leech now has three.
20:35And is that up for Shaheen Shah?
20:36He did ninth wicket to fall for Pakistan.
20:3826 he gets.
20:42Down the pitch.
20:44Mid-on and mid-off.
20:45Try and get there.
20:46It'll beat both of them.
20:51There is the bouncer.
20:52And he's got a wicket with the bouncer.
20:54Now, is Ducky okay?
20:56Has he just dislocated a thumb or something?
20:59The last ball of the innings.
21:00And the opening batsman.
21:02Copsman on the left thumb.
21:04It's a very sharp chance.
21:06Very sharp bouncer for a spinner.
21:09He's guided it as if it's slip catching.
21:10It's right on the end of the thumb.
21:14Pakistan's first innings finally coming to a close.
21:17With the Mammoth 556 on the board here on day two.
21:21Another century to that batting column.
21:23That of Salman Ali Agha.
21:25104, not out.
21:28Wickets shared all around for the England bowlers.
21:30Jack Leech leading that column with three wickets.
21:33Brydon Carrs and Gus Atkinson with two apiece.
21:36And one apiece for Wokes, Bashir and Joe Root.
21:40Let's join the action for the England first innings.
21:44Zach Crawley to face the first ball of England's innings.
21:52Hint of swing in.
21:54Hint, yeah.
21:55And a perfect line and length.
22:01Opens the face.
22:02And as you often get with Zach Crawley.
22:04Off the mark with a boundary.
22:06Four for none England.
22:09Again it's that full delivery you associate with Shaheen Shah of Freedie.
22:13Certainly early on in his spell.
22:16Crawley just opens the face quite a lot actually.
22:19There is a lot of room through that point region.
22:24Ball now as he pulled off Astana.
22:26He has pulled off an absolutely brilliant catch.
22:31Aamir Jamal at mid wicket.
22:33What a grab that is.
22:38Pulls it away leg side.
22:41And suddenly.
22:43It is Aamir Jamal.
22:50Holy Pope there thinks forward.
22:52Then time stands still as Aamir Jamal just plucks it out of the sky.
22:58That is fabulous fielding.
23:01Fabulous catch.
23:02Just the start Pakistan wanted.
23:04Not the start England wanted.
23:06Not their captain.
23:10Punched on the up.
23:11He's punched so hard the sweeper can do nothing about it.
23:14Cracking shot from Zach Crawley.
23:17This back of a length.
23:19He's still coming forward at it.
23:21Such a tall man.
23:22Not much bounce in this pitch.
23:24Right on the top of the bounce that there was.
23:27And that has raced away.
23:31Nice off drive.
23:32He's had a cover drive that went for three.
23:34Now an off drive that finds the boundary.
23:41It's quite something to watch when he's in sync and on song.
23:44And that's more often than not.
23:48Finds the middle of the bat this time.
23:50And the man out is very square.
23:52So Crawley.
23:54Picks up a boundary with a thumping drive.
23:56It is very reminiscent of the ball that he hit.
24:00In the Ashes series about a couple of summers ago.
24:04And he started the series with a shot just like that.
24:08If ever there was an example of.
24:11Taking a good delivery out of your system.
24:14And just focusing on the next one.
24:16It was that.
24:19And again.
24:20To the right of short extra cover this time.
24:22Two thumping drives.
24:24From Crawley.
24:25The second one.
24:26To finish.
24:27The seventh over.
24:32Crawley determined not to let Abrar settle.
24:35Down the pitch.
24:36The previous ball defending.
24:37But down the pitch with intent this time.
24:41He's not a big spinner of the ball.
24:43So once.
24:44You line him up.
24:46Like this.
24:47So you can play through the line.
24:53Wallop again.
24:54No man out.
24:57Crawley ticking along very nicely now.
25:02Positive again.
25:03This time off the back foot.
25:06With the ball being.
25:07Relatively hard still.
25:09Just eleven overs old.
25:11That will go for four.
25:12Fifty up for England.
25:21Once again nicely played.
25:23Extremely well controlled.
25:24By Jouro to pick up four.
25:27Classic Jouro.
25:28In the subcontinent.
25:29A mountain one anywhere in the world.
25:35Brilliant.
25:36Extremely good use of the feet.
25:37And hit it.
25:38The absolute best area.
25:39Straight back pass the bowler.
25:41Zach also picks up another boundary.
25:48Punched off the back foot.
25:52Punched for four.
25:53This is brilliant from Zach Crawley again.
25:56So tricky to bowler.
25:57Because he's at you.
25:58And he's got a long reach.
25:59So you just draw your length back a fraction.
26:03And he'll hang back and punch you.
26:05The pitch is so good.
26:09Turned away.
26:10Leg side.
26:11Timing again.
26:12Very good.
26:13And that'll race to the fence.
26:14And also bring up.
26:16Crawley's 50.
26:17He's been fabulous.
26:18Watched so far.
26:19As always.
26:21Classy shots to the fence.
26:22His 16th test match 50.
26:27He's been very much in control.
26:30Very fluent.
26:35This one just pumped away.
26:36Leg side.
26:37Slightly shorter.
26:38And it's picked up beautifully.
26:41Well that's the other ability.
26:43That he has against the quicker bowlers.
26:48Solidly forward is Joe Root.
26:50And that will be the end of the day's play.
26:54England 96-1.
26:56This partnership 92.
26:58After that early scare.
26:59With a fabulous catch.
27:01Hamid Jamal at mid wicket.
27:03It's been all good from England.
27:05Especially Zach Crawley.
27:07Who's been able to find the fence.
27:09At well 11 boundaries in his 64.
27:16England end the day's play at 96-1.
27:19Top scorer Zach Crawley remains unbeaten.
27:21At a run of all 64.
27:23Joe Root alongside.
27:2432 not out.
27:25The one wicket to fall.
27:26That of the England captain Olly Pope.
27:28Who went for not.
27:30Pakistan using four bowlers.
27:31In the first 20 overs.
27:33The one wicket taken by Naseem Shah.
27:35That of Olly Pope.
27:37Match summary so far.
27:38Here at the end of day 2.
27:39Pakistan with a massive 556.
27:42In that first innings.
27:43England in pursuit 96-1.
27:45They trailed by 460.
