Stuart Broad on TMS: "For me, the pinnacle is always playing for England. The experience guys have got from playing in different tournaments have been brilliant, but I'd never look to put my England place in jeopardy by playing in other tournaments. If England wanted me to play there to improve my white-ball cricket, that would be different, but I'd do it."

Stuart Broad on TMS: "I'd like to play in the World T20, experience is important at big tournaments. We just don't play very much international T20 cricket as we only play three or four games a year."

England pace bowler Stuart Broad on TMS: "I'm certainly available for one-day cricket. The selectors' number one aim was for me to be as fit and firing in South Africa as possible, that means getting fit and strong and ready for Boxing Day. There's a big gap in the rankings with SA at number one and us at six, but I think the teams will be quite closely matched. I've known since the World Cup that I wouldn't play a lot of white-ball cricket this year, but after that series is over, I'd like to be involved."

Now on TMS, Charles Dagnall has been speaking to Stuart Broad about his new book, looking back at that amazing spell at Trent Bridge during the Ashes. We're about 15 minutes away from the resumption...

Only twice have teams chased more than the 284, external needed by Pakistan to win an ODI in Abu Dhabi. The top three at the moment...

Pakistan 295-6 v West Indies, 2008

Pakistan 289-8 v South Africa, 2010

Pakistan 254-3 v Australia, 2009

It's also worth noting that this is only the 13th ODI to be played at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium.

England women's coach Mark Robinson on TMS: "The ceiling is high for these girls, there's so much more they can achieve, but there are going to be some bumps along the road. I met Charlotte Edwards for the first time and had a good couple of hours - she has a great passion for cricket and cares deeply about the game. But we've got to create an infrastructure for the women's game. Things are moving really quickly, with Sarah Taylor playing men's grade cricket in Australia for instance."

It's all over in Mirpur - Bangladesh have beaten Zimbabwe in their first Twenty20 international, after bowling the tourists out for 131 they reached their target for the loss of six wickets, with 14 balls to spare. The Tigers previously swept the ODI series 3-0.

England women's coach Mark Robinson on TMS: "Just because you start paying somebody doesn't suddenly make them a better player. These girls have only been professional for two years, we have to help them make that transition. There's been an explosion in women's sport in the last two years, some of these girls are only just out of university but the expectation is on them."

"With central contracts and full-time professionalism, expectation now becomes that much greater for England's women - there was a disappointing performance in the Women's Ashes. The Super League seems a good idea, but there's so much still to come."

John Michael Poole: England 20-25 runs short there. Pakistan to comfortably chase this down. Pie man Rashid to have a stinker.

"A number of high-calibre and high-quality people applied for the England women's job. Clare Connor told us they'd be looking for someone with international experience. Now, Mark Robinson didn't play international cricket, his coaching credentials are second to none, but it was a bit surprising as the first thing on Clare's list was international experience, although Robinson has coached the England Lions."

Hales' 109 - his maiden ODI century - came off 117 balls and contained seven fours and three sixes.

New England women's coach Mark Robinson will shortly be joining Aggers on TMS to discuss his new position...

England batsman Alex Hales: "It didn't spin quite as much as we expected. We saw how hard it was to score at the end there.

"I hope 283 is enough. If we stick to our plans, get a couple of early wickets and bowl well at he death, then hopefully we can defend that."

England 283-5 (50 overs)

Hales 109 (117), Root 63 (77), Roy 54 (57)

Batsmen: Taylor 9* (8), Moeen 2* (2)

Fall of wickets: 102-1 (Roy 54), 216-2 (Hales 109), 256-3 (Root 63), 270-4 (Buttler 11), 274-5 (Morgan 29)

Bowling figures: Irfan 10-0-46-1, Anwar 9-0-48-0, Yasir 9-0-70-0, Riaz 10-0-43-3, Malik 6-0-42-0, Iftikhar 6-0-31-1

England won toss; Pakistan lead series 1-0

Full scorecard

Alex Hales made his maiden one-day international century as an improved England batting performance helped them post 283-5 in the second ODI against Pakistan in Abu Dhabi.

Hales, whose 109 came from 117 balls with three sixes, enjoyed an opening stand of 102 with Jason Roy (102) and added a further 114 with Joe Root (63).

The tourists had looked set for a score in excess of 300 but three wickets in the last five overs derailed that hope as paceman Wahab Riaz (3-43) ensured Pakistan finished strongly.

Pakistan lead the series 1-0.

Ex-England batter on BBC Test Match Special

"With the start England had from Hales and Roy, you would have hoped that they could have taken it further in the last few overs. Their bowling attack didn't have much venom the other night. It's in the balance."

That's a very handy finish - Anwar strays with the final ball of the innings and Taylor swats it behind square for four. A good total for England, but it could have been so much better. Pakistan have all the momentum after an excellent last 10 overs.
