Talk of 300 plus feels a little silly right now. England need a rebuild. Alice Capsey and Amy Jones with work to do.

Nat Sciver-Brunt has been trying to push the tempo a tad for a while now, but has largely found fielders. Back-to-back boundaries off Nida Dar might be just what she needed to get her going. The first was a gimme, Dar dropping waaaayyyy too short. The second was a lovely stroke right between deep mid-wicket and long on. Good cricket, that.

I said last over that Pakistan were keeping it tight. They continue to do so and take a wicket. Life is good.

It was short and it was wide, but she won't care!

There was a little bit of movement but it was a good catch - a very good catch standing up from Najiha Alvi. Heather Knight knows she has hit it and she has got to go.

It breaks an important partnership, how many times have we seen Knight and Sciver-Brunt rescue England through that middle order?

Credit to Pakistan here, by the way. They are keeping it tight.

England firmly into those "middle overs" now. Couple of set batters, albeit Heather Knight has led a charmed life thus far. Time to pick up the pace soon, or is the pitch a bit trickier than we all think? What do you reckon?

England reach three figures. Alex Hartley thinks 300 is about right, and it is difficult to disagree. Will be fun to watch from here if they are to get there.

I would have thought England would be targeting that 300 mark, but they have been a little bit tentative.

I don't know whether it's the conditions out there. I think the slow bowlers of Pakistan have been hard to get away. We have seen a lot of extra cover being nailed time and time again.

I think England will be looking to up it a little bit.

Thanks Mike. Slow and steady thus far... time will tell if England will win the race.

Knight cashes in on her let-off, turning new bowler Aliya Riaz around the corner for four.

That's the eleventh four of England innings - five of which came in the seventh and eighth over.

To see if the hosts can kick on, here's Sam Dalling.

Nida Dar was expensive in the T20s. She was probably Pakistan's worst bowler. When it comes to economy, for me, she was just a bit all over the place.

She did pick up three wickets in that last T20 but she went for 45. In the second one, she went for 33.

Dropped catch - and it's Umm-e-Hani again!

Heather Knight crashes Nida Dar's fourth ball towards mid-wicket and the Pakistan fielder can't hold onto the catch low down.

The England captain survives again, after being dropped on zero she gets a second life on 19.

Nat Sciver-Brunt picks up four, finding the gap in the covers to send Umm-e-Hani to the ropes.

The England batters then twice sweep out to the mid-wicket boundary rider, picking up a single each time.

The TMS commentators are discussing potential nicknames for Alex Hartley...

Nida Dar brings herself onto bowl and concedes three singles from her first over.

The TV cameras pick out the England drinks carriers, who are clutching hot water bottles.

Ah, summer!

She waited for it to be slightly straighter and nailed it through the covers! That was a lovely shot from the skipper.

Obviously Heather was a bit frustrated having to play the last couple balls on the back-foot, but this time she was on the front-foot through the extra cover.

Heather Knight has her first boundary from her 22nd ball faced, timing Umm-e-Hani beautifully through the covers.

I don't know if Umm-e-Hani has a Doosra in her, but it felt like it was either accidental or the Hawkeye was slightly wrong!
