    Isla: Note to Eng's batsmen: Be boring. Dead boring.Totally tedious.Slothfully soporific. On no account do ANYTHING exciting

    A light breeze across Lord's, sunshine still prevails though. Yasir from over the wicket to right-handed Bairstow. The Yorkshire lad steadfastly brings his bat down straight at it. No craziness, no rush of blood.

    Woakes has a nervy start to the session, edging a rising delivery back with the wily Younus waiting at second slip. Thankfully it's not carried. A good stop by Younus, who probably has a job keeping that hat on as well at times.

    Peter: If Woakes does this, the MoM will be the least surprising award since Casablanca went against Carry On Accounting in the Oscars

    I do love me some tennis. In fact, I quite agree with Mrs Murray on the subject of kids playing to enjoy the sport rather than impress with wins. I coach tennis at my local club and it's always the five-year-olds that seem the most enthusiastic about the game. What's not to be enthusiastic about a sponge ball that you can whack the coach with?

    England resume their innings. They need 128 more for what will be an extraordinary win. Rahat Ali with the ball for Pakistan.

    Judy Murray on BBC Test Match Special: When my kids started competing in sport, the most important thing was they enjoyed it. You fall in love with the sport you stay in it. In tennis, it doesn't matter that you don't win, the key is to learn from it, why you lost. And as a parent you just support them whether they win or lose.

    Hope you're enjoying the fascinating interview on BBC Test Match Special with Judy Murray. We will shortly begin the final session at Lord's. Pakistan's players are back on the field. England could do with some tough love. Which is probably what's keeping them. Eventually Bairstow and Woakes run out to some encouraging applause.

    Judy Murray on BBC Test Match Special: Once you step out on court, it's an individual sport. Nobody can help you. Wimbledon is so huge, for a home player. You've got the crowd behind you, you've got to win seven matches, there's so much investment in energy, and it just takes over when you win.

    Looks like Moeen's been made the scapegoat for the defeat coming up! The truth is that the whole team batted badly.

    Who's the best spinner in the country? Rashid? Whoever it is, get them in. Even to bat at 10 or 11. Moeen's time is up for me.

    Judy Murray on Test Match Special: "I'm getting into cricket. I love the way you stop for lunch and afternoon tea. I've had strawberries already and some Pimms.

    "I've spent the last hour talking to Andy Flower. As somebody who doesn't understand cricket, it was really fascinating picking his brain."

    No one has reached 50 since halfway through the second day. Only three men have made a half-century in the match.

    Psychologically, England need to get to 200, then they can count down, but  just can't see them getting there quickly enough. The pressure is on. They will need to bat carefully for a good hour after tea.

    Make that one final set of sightscreen adjustments. Yasir comes round the wicket and pretty much grazes the edge of the pitch to deliver to Woakes. Solid defence continues from the Warwickshire man. Alastair Cook looks contemplative on the Lord's balcony. Not Misbah contemplative, more of the Captain Mainwaring trying to defuse a rolling bomb.

    Amazing how many different ways to enjoy the cricket there are at a stadium. You can watch it, listen to it with big headphones, or you can imagine it from inside your striped cap as you tilt your head down for a snooze. The latter particularly helpful if your team is in trouble. Rahat Ali's latest over gives away one and we will have one final set - from Yasir - before Tea.

    Tea coming up shortly. And I get the feeling Pakistan won't be too fussed about more wickets before that. Would do nicely, but keeping up the pressure counts for a lot. Another maiden from Yasir, Woakes again playing it out. He's turning out to be England's best batsmen against leg-spin.

    Plenty of chatter from the Pakistani players as Rahat continues from the other end. Captain Misbah remains in the ear of his bowlers. Woakes does well to see off the entire over and also manages a single off the last ball.
